Sure it has. Now it has a WiFi antenna and an embedded webserver so that you can see the temperature of the water on your smartphone(app installation required)
The boiler will get software updates until the next 3-4 year cycle, then you will need to buy a new boiler to get the latest BoilerOS(tm) that adds the ability to remotely set the temperature. No need for that to be secure...What's the worst that could happen??? It's just a boiler...
You just added another line to my face. So thanks for that. Just don't leave out the small openboileros crew serving up lawsuit magnet heat due to insurance issues of modifying your water boiling code.
Only officially sanctioned iBoiler parts may be used. Use of an unauthorized part will cause the boiler to enter DRM guard mode and cease operation for violation of the OpenBoilerOS software license.
You can expect a nastygram from the BSA(Boiler Software Alliance) for your attempt to circumvent their DRM.
Your water boiler hasn't changed in the past 70 years.
