I’ve got to admit, I was rather surprised when the guy behind the Scio turned up on my twitter feed and tried to convince me that scio really was a great thing. The play-list he sent me was far from a ringing endorsement of his gadget! However the interesting thing that came out of it was all the footage of the ‘spectrometer phone’. You can find multiple sources saying it was coming out in 2017, but nothing after that. Its more or less the same deal with putting scio into a kitchen balance. Odd, its almost as if the scanner was almost useless!

One of these days Im going to find one of these things cheap on ebay and see just how much difference there is between an apple and a potato! ;-)

BUSTED $3 MILLION Food scanner RESPONDS!

Odd, I really dont feel the need to give Scio $1000 to check that their scanner can tell the difference between an apple and a potato! Im also particularly non-plussed when someone does some really REALLY bad reporting, then blames me for pointing out their bad reporting! https://www.youtube.com/embed/Q3ZFRgZMdlA?start=2345 If you like this stuff and want to support it: https://www.patreon.com/Thunderf00t

I wish I could make money being this stupid but I'm a musician and too intelligent to be intellectual for this indolent generation.

You know what? Maybe I should crowdfund a really stupid idea like this and use that money to buy out spacex

It's a bait & switch con. Look, if you have to tell the thing what you're scanning, "grapes" or "apple" for instance, what's the point of having the scanner at all? Next they'll ask you to take a picture of the item and then upload that - again, why? It's utterly useless; "here, scanning an apple" *scans* (pause) *ping!* "ooh, look data on apples" - as in generic data with a randomized set of useless variables to keep the bald monkey using the thing amused. Laughable. It's effectively using a %like% operator on data stored in a database: "select top 1 [nameofthing] where name like 'apple'" (etc) - it's not 'the' apple you scanned, it's just generic data about apples served up by a little man behind the curtain pulling levers.
