I don't think there are any smart switches that don't also have physical, local control.

My smart switches have a little light on them that shows whether they're on or off. The actual light they control is also a pretty good indicator of the switch's state.

Sticking with Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VPN_service Saying that these services are "not VPNs" is unnecessary pedantry. Definitions evolve over time, and these services meet the common definitio

Exactly. Let's say the Tommy John underwear last 3x longer and are 3x more comfortable than Fruit of the Loom. Suddenly, the 10x price difference makes perfect sense. Unlike this post, which is pure nonsense.

They are absolutely VPNs. If you don't like my term "general purpose" that's fine, but they 100% fit the definition of VPN.

I'm talking about services like NordVPN, Mullvad, etc. They do not funnel your Internet connection through their servers.

You're assuming that they're thinking something completely outside of anything they've ever said, and something that nobody actually wants. Your assumption is the one that's out of left field, not mine.

Tailscale is for accessing your own devices, it's not a general purpose VPN service. Anonymity is not a factor.

I think you've got a fundamental misunderstanding of what Tailscale does. It's all about accessing your own devices. You don't need or want anonymity in that case. They are not a general purpose VPN service, and can't

Of course the NFL would never allow a 7 minute commercial break, although I do believe that the cost is linear. A 60 second commercial's cost is simply 2x 30 second commercials. There's no reason to do anything differently, since

Even if A says the same words (he probably wouldn't) it definitely wouldn't be in the same tone. B would understand that it was a repeated command and not an acknowledgement.

I think you missed the other websites reference. If you're at the point of being able to steal the table of users, you're probably not too concerned about using the credentials to login to that website.

Nobody's hashing a password on every request. In this case, the cookie is used for a (very shoddily implemented) "Remember Me" feature, so the user doesn't have to login to the website every time they use it.

Unfortunately Logitech has discontinued the Harmony line. I would be very wary about starting off fresh with them, because they are reliant on Logitech's servers being available. That being said, you can pry my Harmony Ultimate from my

Who, exactly, is it supposed to be "nearly" an actual slur against? Because I'm sure that actual landlords don't have a problem being referred to as landlords, so you must be referring to some other group.
