Next week, gonna be playing again. I’ve ordered next up spicy sauce, it’s called Last Dab XXX. It suppose to be 1 million Scoville more than last sauce I’ve used.

Why? First one to the hospital wins?

My suggestion would be lots of Vodka and orange juice and lots of long naps for the next few days.

Close. I'm more of a burbon guy though.

My sprinkler system is controlled via wifi which is great because the control is behind a bunch of crap and a dark corner of our basement. I had to replace the original controller and I didn't think I'd like the new one with WIFI but it was on sale and cheaper than a regular one. I'm glad I got it.

The only other IoT thing we have is our Range. I turned it on once just to see how it worked, then turned it off. You can do a lot of things with it, all unnecessary, and doesn't do the one thing I would want it to do, synchronize the time.

OK, technically I guess my Dish Network boxes are IoT and I do use my phone as a remote on occasion for them.

In the end, like most things, if the tech gadget makes sense I'm all in, it it doesn't I don't bother.

For example, I have at least one outlet in each room of our house I've replaced with one that has USB ports for charging/power. I don't have a need for remote controlled outlets though, so I don't have any.

I didn't say what kind of doctor you will need.

Reminds me of the old story that in a sales meeting the sales manager instructed his salesmen to drink ONLY whisky or bourbon. When a salesman ask why, the sales manager replied that he wanted their customers to think they were just drunk ...... not stupid.

I was a long time skeptic, but I've converted. It's really nice to be able to go upstairs, get ready for bed, lay down and say, "hey Google - turn off all the lights." Or, in the morning, say, "hey Google - good morning," and have it/her turn on the downstairs lights, remind me what's on my calendar for the day, tell me the weather forecast, and play the Austin NPR station.

Yep. I don't use the heat at night, so when it was still chilly I could set up a routine that turns a couple lights on in the living room every morning at 8am and starts up the heat to take the chill off the room. Super handy.

A weekend off to work on the car turned into a weekend of building a giant fuck off shed for a friend.

What's the difference between a normal shed and a fuck-off shed?

It’s big enough we need a permit but he didn’t get one.
