@mattmay It's just mind boggling to me how many things on the market lose their basic function when the Internet goes down.
Who designs these things? Nobody ever heard of graceful fallback?

I have a 'smart' power socket which switches a single thing on and off once a day.
I set it up by pairing it to a temporary wifi access point that _isn't_ shared with anything else (partly because I don't trust it and partly because it sits on the very edge of wifi).
Every now and then it forgets what it is doing and switches on at a 'random' time.
I suspect it is sulking because it can't talk to the mothership (or NTP?).
Anyone else experienced this ?

I generated a long-form essay on The Age of #Enshittification🚽 - How Predatory Corporations Weaponize Science to Deceive, Downsize, and Dominate the Modern Consumer - Nothing new…just a deep dive. I did the research and just pulled the whole story together in one long essay thinking it would be a useful reference. Once the dots are connected in this way, the story becomes even more insidious and ominous. Y’all know we’re being manipulated and controlled, but did you know how and how much? If you get through this tome, I hope you’ll have the WHOLE picture of how #SurveillanceCapitalism combined with science like #BehavioralEconomics are screwing us all.

@brett I love the idea of this, but hate that bidirectional charging almost promises the EV will be part of the #InternetofShit, which, admittedly they all are these days. But I don't want to get further locked in.
