It really is futuristic as not many people currently have them. I also wouldn't mind having my own wind turbine :) I agree that getting solar panels is the way to be futuristic and make a huge difference for the environment and your wallet.

It would be the correct temperature, pressure, would play music, release scents, and maybe a little airborne sedative to knock you out? You just set it for 8 hours of sleep, it causes you to go to sleep automatically and then wake up automatically! I obviously got no sleep last night.

Haha. Kidding. Teleporter would be nice though. That's not really a home add-on though eh?

Not too "futuristic" but something I've been wanting for a while. I’d love to have super efficient solar panels first! Not too “futuristic” but something I’ve been wanting for a while.

But I don't think that's what you meant, since it's not exactly the kind of thing that's being developed. Most of the stuff - even the idea that my house can sense me approaching - creeps me out a bit. I'd turn into a paranoid conspiracy theorist doublequick!

The thing I have wanted lately is a massive warm hair dryer type device to dry me when I get out of the shower. Drying off with a towel is so 90s ;) hmmm… The thing I have wanted lately is a massive warm hair dryer type device to dry me when I get out of the shower. Drying off with a towel is so 90s ;)
