  • I read the first book and loved it. Same for the rest, found that they’re not necessarily better and don’t follow the same characters or even a timeline, so I never bothered.
    I’m so looking forward to the last movie though. I don’t know if I’ve liked any as much since the LotR movies.














  • There are use cases for everything. Cheaper electricity during the night - schedule the dryer to sync with that. Disabled and can’t reach the AC or light controls easily? Do it through your phone.

    The real problem IMO is that these are implemented poorly, insecurely* and often through closed ecosystems, remote servers and million apps.
    If this was done well, users like you could ignore the features, and others could make use of them. When you can’t turn a fan on because your Fast Fans app logged you out, then I’d just rather not…

    Very common in the UK too. Lunch is dinner, dinner is dinner, dinner is tea, tea is also a specific type of afternoon meal (scones and sandwiches).
    Even then, people will just say something like ‘morning tea’ instead of breakfast.
    It’s a linguistic war zone.
