1. Invent incredibly dumb device.
2. Brand it as "Smart" to lean into Dunning-Kruger effect sales.
3. Profit!!

Extremely destructive to the future of the company, you say? Go on...?

We've been having short power cuts lately (rural area, windy!) and now it's starting to look like my Dell Optiplex sMaRt RaDiAtOr 50w homelab/studio/shed heater could do with a UPS to protect against data loss! Though it does have btrfs raid1 which is pretty handy for a ~~radiator~~ RAID1ator!

Thanks! I'm still a Lemmy account noob though I've been lurking for a year. Ex-Reddit - finally deleted my account there, it was time!

Part of what took me so long to sign up for Lemmy was ADHD and trying to choose an instance to join! So in the end I picked a geek/coder/anarcho/punk/egalitarian seeming one.

Hadn't really thought about people blocking the whole instance. I mostly just like to help answer questions and engage in some online banter.

Is this the point in my Lemmy life where I decide to create a second account on another instance just in case!? Probably, lol!

Oh shit I'm on dbzer0 - just seemed like a good geeky instance. Is it a problematic one? Thx!

They're heating the room too so technically it's a radiator with network attached storage!
