!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The most knowledgeable IT people have the least IOT devices in their house.
Eh. I’m pretty deep in IT but have a boatload of IoT. Though I admit the few that are WiFi enabled are mostly blocked from internet access.
If you're technically minded, you can do some amazing things with Home Assistant and IOT devices.
Haha that’s exactly what I do. 99% is local, the 1% is either “off site” in such a way it can’t be moved local, or I’m moving it to a local solution when possible.
I'm not particularly knowledgeable about IT but I avoid IoT like the plague. Everything should run locally and if I want to control it from away I'll use a VPN to home.
Almost all of mine are lightbulbs, because RGB.

I think I cursed myself. I just got woken up at 6am by my smart light turning on for no apparent reason.
