Ooh where to start...

I have a robot vacuum, security system, smart doorbell, smart blinds, smart plugs, an EV, smart split systems, Google mesh wifi, Google smart speakers, Google smart hubs, Google TV, smart garage door, solar panels, EV charger. I want a smart door lock next.

Nah. We don’t have any pets. Wouldn’t mind one but it’s a pain when you go on vacation.

Not if you leave everyone else home to look after them...

Does the Happy Holidays vs. Merry Christmas get a gig in here, or is that in the Grumpy Old thread?

Gets its own thread, usually started by a grumpy old.
I'll make sure you don't miss out.

Got one of those lightbulbs you can control with your phone. Doesn't affect anyone else in the house.

Find it convenient to be able to get in bed then switch the light off, or switch them on if I'm looking for something without stumbling across the room to find the switch.

Smart woman, your wife.




I suspect most wives have a similar opinion of BF.

I’ve seen one of those once before on Hogans Heroes… except they called it a Gonkulator

Just ordered my 1000mbps fibre connection - my emails are going to fly from my outbox and I definitely needed it.

Assuming a crappy sleeper ? Have my sympathies.

Yeah, I have a soft palate, not helped by a bit of extra weight currently, I could be 40kg and still get sleep apnoea events. Did a sleep study and they reckon I had 70-80 in a night with the largest being 45sec+

I have a " wife " palate who is like the human octopus in bed. Can't keep still.

Not exactly sure. Just know it’s Lake Taupo.
