I mean, most of the automation was already there, they've just marketed their IoT crap to death so now everyone thinks it's new because it's on an app. Honeywell, etc. have all made comfort thermostats (I think that's the right term) that could be programmed with an upper and lower temperatures, so you don't even need to switch between cooling/heating. Some even allowed temperature ranges so you're not just running in basic-bitch temp vs. CPH mode. You could also schedule temperatures based on work, school, etc. Basically everything people are using an app to do now, sometimes better, hanging on the wall in your hallway... ignored... for years.

Cookers, etc. can all be put on $5 timers so they're going when you get home.

I don't know, it all just feels lazy to me. Like something straight out of WALL-E. Old man rant over, I'll stop yelling at the clouds now lol

Or, hear me out, we just use our arms and legs to get off the sofa and flip the switch on the wall? Also, the AC thermostat should have some arrows on it, those let you turn the temperature up and down.

Crazy, I know, but it's true! Your AC, lights, microwave and fridge don't need fucking WiFi and internet.

Cellebrite was used to crack the first Trump shooter's phone. At the time, they openly talked about the latest iPhone being uncrackable and still in the "In Research" phase. So if the shooter had one, they'd have been screwed.

You're thinking of FreeDUMB, where you're allowed to believe whatever you want. But Trump has to approve the position first (as stated) and it has to be the opposite of whatever the data/proof clearly shows. It's like the Wish.com version of Freedom~TM~, but that's geared more toward Teaparty Gun Nuts and Libertarian Potheads.

Edit: Huge caveat I forgot about. Joe Rogan also has the ability to dictate FreeDUMB positions. So long as the guest making the claim (1) has no degrees and (2) they're being suppressed by The Establishment. Also, Jamie has to be able to Google some random website that agrees with them in under 25 seconds.

Now I'm just picturing random Benz's satnavs crashing all over the planet. All because Teams.exe decided it needed 100% of the CPU, at maximum priority, for the next 20 minutes. Because fuck you.

(I'm 999.9999999% sure that program is SkyNet/Genesis at this point. Because Microsoft doesn't need to mine fuckin' Bitcoin or anything stupid. So the fuck is it doing?)

Now send a giant bag of dicks to Hachette Book's HQ. We'll make it the after credits scene in the movie.

It's not a rounding error. Its cost gets spread across other products in the store, meaning everyone pays for them. Walmart isn't just gonna take the loss themselves.

Take a look, it's in a book...

Yeah, they moved from streaming on Comedy Central (and southpark.com, which was free) to Paramount (which is paid). It's been a shit show ever since, limited to 6 episodes or so a season (if you're lucky). Then the hiatus after Covid and the specials. It's been a rough ride, but they're still kicking.
