  • I had several IOT smart plugs that have GPS built in.

    why? why would it need to know its exact geographic location?!

    after that I created an entire hardware segmented network that’s specifically used for IOT and cameras.

    last I checked the router/firewall it’s on has blocked over 11million requests a month trying to access the outside.

    I will never have a “smart” device in my home that’s connected to the internet. I’ll live like it’s the 1930s if I ever have to.















  • that part works “ok”, but if you try to import any of the boxart or other metadata they have to be named in a specific way in order to be “found”.

    out of a library in the tens of thousands of roms I barely have 500 with boxart or metadata.

    the alternative is to go to each game and select the game. by hand. no thanks.

    I get it, it’s far easier to have required set parameters to start with, but there’s a better way to achieve the same goal with fuzzy logic and simple prompts.
