The problem is that they are all wrong enough often enough that they should not even be considered IMHO, but I understand that others feel differently about their usefulness.

It’s one banana, what could it cost, $10?
As much as I’d love to respond with a troll face and pretend that was purposeful ragebait, I’m not gonna lie - having watched neither, I legit thought it was The Office lmao. Thanks for the correction =]
- Comment on AWS outage reminds us why $2,449 Internet-dependent beds are a bad idea 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I absolutely adore being able to set up things that make my life easier without getting in the way and without worrying it’ll all ruin my day if something stops working.
We use smart light switches that look and work like regular switches, but with Z-wave control built in. Controlling otherwise non-smart lights is great, but then so is being able to trigger things with double and triple presses!
My favorite example is that my espresso machine takes a moment to warm up in the morning, so I have it on a Z-wave outlet for remote control. I can turn it on from my bedroom by double-clicking my bedroom light switch on the way out of the room in the morning. By the time I collect the cups from the office, and get them cleaned out in the kitchen, the machine is usually ready to use.
I’m rather close to a downward triple-press in the bedroom kicking off a full bedtime routine that turns off all the lights, TVs, locks the house doors (with feedback from a smart speaker if that fails), locks the car doors, turns the temperature down a couple of degrees, and arms the house alarm.
A downward triple-press in my office locks the family’s computers.
All 100% locally, and I adore it!

I’d rather a happy medium of local control where it can be hooked up to HomeAssistant. I like smart home when the smarts stay in my home!

I think the comment you’re replying to was a reference to The Office, a la “It’s one banana, what could it cost, $10?”

- Comment on best comment under a video about the new iphone 17 1 month ago:
I’ve had two folding phones work for over two years without any delamination or other issues - I only replaced the first one because I dropped it and shattered a corner of the outer screen. Inner screen was in perfect condition still.
I can understand the hesitation but if you can get a good deal on one they’re way better now than they were at the beginning.

I was sitting here scrolling through the responses thinking about how I don’t have one, but yeah … TRON Legacy was good and nobody can convince me otherwise. I saw it in IMAX and it was an absolute visual treat, which was the whole point.
