Is r/memes any better? Same boomer memes. I'd argue here you find good stuff a bit more often at least.

Yeah, there are definitely things were it being connected is a nice thing. But a lot of things don't need that. Lights are a nice thing to have connected, but what good is a connected toaster if i still have to put in the toast and take it out.

Tech Enthusiasts: Everything in my house is wired to the Internet of Things! I control it all from my smartphone! My smart-house is bluetooth enabled and I can give it voice commands via alexa! I love the future!

Programmers / Engineers: The most recent piece of technology I own is a printer from 2004 and I keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise.

Smarz devices are cool. As long as they are only locally connected.

Homeassistant is the best!

The “S” in “IoT” stands for “secure”.

I wouldn't connect Samsung appliances to the internet in case Samsung sends a poison pill like Western Digital did with their NAS hard drives.

Apple responding to your infringement of one of their 5000 Vision Loss Pro patents by sending a special software update just for you, which causes your iBad to tell your HomeKit thermostat to make the air hot enough to burn a very flammable object that you have
