To date I haven’t fallen for any of the SmartHome grifters. Have you?
@billbennett.bsky.social Funny… right now we are packaging up the faulty robot vacuum and I’m girding my loins for a Consumer Guarantees Act row with the retailer.
But it’s not connected to anything other than the power supply.
@billbennett.bsky.social It’s largely because unless it fixes accessibility issues having a ‘smart home’ boils down to being a time (and money) consuming hobby or an indulgence.
If you can’t turn on a light switch then being able to say “lights on” is useful. If you can, then it’s just about showing off.
