I can see value in HVAC IoT. Away from home and there’s a cold spell? Turn up the heating so your pipes don’t freeze, but also run it higher when electricity is cheaper (if you have variable pricing).
I don’t think I’d want my microwave, washing machine, or toilet to have IoT features though.
That’s more like it. In Estonian we call it “hapukurk” or “sour cucumber” which implies fermented too. You can have all kinds of different flavours too. I’ve never made them myself (yet) but my mom usually adds garlic cloves, blackcurrant leaves and dill, all from her garden of course. It’s delicious.
Uh… Whatever you say, that’s not really a thing this side of the ocean. We use a lot of different things in pickles - never have I seen anyone use HFCS. Not even in store bought pickles.
I tried Fanta in the US and it was disgusting compared to the European version. If the corn syrup is what causes that and they also put it in pickles where you come from, I understand why you might prefer the salt type. But I assure you, even store bought vinegar pickles are way superior to salt pickles here.
You’ve never had the good stuff then. Salt brine based is boring.
Yea, but I’m not eating them for health reasons and the brine ones suck lol
Usually vinegar where I come from. Wayyyy better
My personal anti-suggestion is always the office. Too much cringe. I’ll watch compilations of Jim pranking Dwight on YouTube, but I can’t watch the show as a whole because of Michael.
Yes. But it used to be free to watch remotely. It’s 99% your own hardware doing everything. Their services get used for discovery, not as proxies for the connection itself, AFAIK.
You already had to pay them to allow transcoding with your own GPU, etc.
Right now it’s still not too bad, but just watch, enshittification will affect paid users too. For one, I expect the lifetime pass to go away, and go away retroactively eventually.
Looks like someone left their debug code in.
Mine chimes a quaint little song. It’s enough because it can be heard pretty much anywhere in the house unless I’m in the basement. If I’m not home, the notification wouldn’t be particularly useful - I might as well just check when I get home.
I mean the idea isn’t the absolute worst. I just don’t think it’s a huge QoL improvement either.
