Thx; I suppose that's also why my fridge, microwave, tv and door lock are as dumb and unconnected as I can make them :-> I found a quote a while back - don't know the source - which sums up how many IT experts view IT: "Non-magic users: collect crystals, call their pet a familiar, draw pentagrams. Magic users:the most magical things I keep in my house are rocks, and I keep a hammer next to them in case they act up" |

Tech Enthusiasts: Everything in my house is wired to the Internet of Things! I control it all from my smartphone! My smart-house is Bluetooth enabled and I can give it voice commands via Alexa! I love the future!
Programmers / Engineers: The most recent piece of technology I own is a printer from 2004 and I keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise.
I'm definitely on the second half. We still have a Nest, but only because I've not convinced myself that the HestiaPi will actually run our system properly... and I can't get parts for it.
