It really depends on what device you are connecting. My range/oven has the option that I never set up because I don’t want to preheat it when I am not home.

But I did get a smart wall outlet that I plugged my coffee maker into so I can turn it on from my bed in the morning.

I remember once someone made DOOM but every time you killed an enemy it would kill -9 a random process.

Or, hey you spent all day on this for a dish that is “alright“

That show was surprisingly good.

DST is sprung forward. It happens in the summer. Standard time is what the northern hemisphere is on now in the winter.

Fun fact. In the winter the sun is pretty close to its highest at Noon but I the summer that happens at 1:00 pm.

In high school we called it “Worship the Chicken Before It Destroys You”

I still like the old slashdot method where there were categories you could give to a comment. Was this insightful, or was it funny.

And this picture doesn’t show the more recent models with the mag lock power, hdmi, and sd card reader.
