I agree, didn't grow up with divorced parents, and I'm not a divorced parent, but it seems - especially in this day - this just isn't as much as a bad omen as it used to be. I see more cooperative parents (whether they'r

It's easy to be persuaded by answering services when you're dealing with what's arguably the thing you will ever be most responsible for. Plenty of people/businesses take advantage of that.

That page makes it seem like only the Thermostat has Farsight. You mention smoke alarms. I do know that my Nest Protects (smoke alarms) have motion detection though. Very handy nightlight in the middle of the night. Though if tied into the

Yeah. I used to think the same thing. Maybe I will again, but here's what changed my specific situation: I once had Time Warner. It was OK, I didn't need to deal with Customer Service and my cable never went out. No real issues ot

This! When I was on a cheap shared and hosted solution the idea of LE was waaayyy above me. But, I moved over everything to AWS, for the same amount of money (OK, ~$0.60 more than what I was paying before - relatively nothing), and it becam

So how long before Google pulls support from Amazon devices like they did with YouTube? I love this silo problem.

Funny. Though I would have just turned off the record sets for said domain. (assuming I had that control) Even less effort, more professional response.

I think the proposition of death is a bit of a stretch. Definitely inconvenient, though. FWIW, dumb appliances could have done the same thing. A furnace that stops working in the dead of winter while away can still burst your pipes if they

All of these solutions I've seen still have manual override. If my nest isn't connected to the internet, I can still go over to it and turn it and the heat will come on (or go off). If my smoke detectors can't talk to the int

I think this is why we see hubs in this space. Like Insteon, etc. AFAIK, these allow for a local network to be created so that control/connection can still happen at a local level. If that's not the case then why the hell am I req

Or Amazon Prime Music/Unlimited. This is the other problem with streaming services. "tens of millions" of songs still leaves out some glaring omissions for a lot of people.

I always considered most of these decisions to come from accounting/taxes/different currency. Getting to play the "well what about digital rights" seems like a cop-out for the previously mentioned reasons. It would anywa

Perhaps that combination is used in case of the chatbot being aware that one is wanting to take dramatic actions from mental health side affects (hurting one's self or others). At least with a name (maybe) and a number they have a way

It never really bothered me that police cars contained these cameras. But for some weird reason civilian cars carrying these cameras (and collecting and re-selling my plate information) really infuriates me.

Often times rent is more expensive than owning a home (through a 30-year mortgage, for instance). So, in the end, you end up with an (appreciating) asset vs just having somewhere to live for X years. Of course, and this is a huge reason for
