If it requires the internet, then hell no. I will never be convinced to connect my stand-alone appliances to the internet.

There is this story floating around on the internet that some hacker group hacked a load of samsung smart fridges, installed some malware and basically turned all the hacked devices into a zombie bot net.

If you google 'samsung bot net fridge' you'll find all of that stuff. But their smart TVs have also had the same attention from hackers as well. Im not sure if samsung software/firmware is just very easy to break and exploit or if the hackers just really hate samsungs.

Theoretically, the same thing could happen to smart appliances from other manufacturers.

It's about reach. I don't have actual numbers, but isn't Samsung the biggest seller of TVs and smart appliances worldwide, alongside LG?

I remember to have seen, that some folks did solve their issue with the power button by a 3D printed part. They did extend the power button to a place off the computer.

I still remember Lisp which i had to program whilst i was studying at the university. Afaik it was at the academic subject of AI. For me it was horrible to count the brackets all the time. This was in the 1980'ies. :)

I'll never turn the mini off again and set it to restart when power comes on. Probably getting a UPS for it, too.

Lisp is my favorite programming language by far. I freely admit that it is unusable when you have to use an editor that doesn't do the parenthesis matching for you.

That's optional but my wife likes that feature the most... The app anyways.
Whatever it takes to diagnose a 10mm socket or Allen key just landed in the glass door dryer before it starts up. If you ask me it was a slippery slope after going to 10 billion rpm with a viewing window at kiddo and doggo height.

Yeah the first thing I did was remove anything from the shelf that could fall and damage the lid/control panels which are all glass lol

Honestly I haven't been paying attention to the appliance market but I tend to stick with either speedqueen which I just replaced or LG for washer/dryers and was just like wtf when I noticed they have AI wash/dry cycles lol.

Guess my next toaster will have AI....

Just happy my gigabyte motherboard is not the AI Snatch model :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I developed Lisp on a IBM Mainframe at a terminal. Aside with Fortran, Cobol, Pscal,... It has been the end of the 1980'ies. I still used my fully equipped Amiga 2000. Also i had a HP28 calculator... ;)

A battery powered tyre inflator to replace my over 8 year old one that I had been using, which I think the pump inside isn't as was when it was new and the cig plug keeps disconnecting itself whenever I move the wire slightly.
Very compact and it's rechargeable via usb type c so it's all modernised.
Could have gotten a cheaper one or even more expensive one that are in the "motor trade" but I trust Ugreen lol

I would say that majority of doubleclick issues are also caused by dirt/dust being lodged somewhere in the switch.

And dust interferes with the electromechanical actuation of them switches. Optical gets rid of the issue, debouncing at least alleviates it.
But I agree, dust is more common than the springs/contacts deforming.

No, the switches themselves bend.

It is pretty easy to replace the switches if you have a good desoldering tool. I do that all the time with the mice I prefer but that have bad switches.

That wouldn't explain cases where turning the mouse upside down and spamming the affected button solved the actual doubleclick issue. I'm not denying that it can be an issue, just that some cases might be as simple as dust being lodged in the switch.

do let me know, since i am looking into buying this, but i was scared away by people having double click issues :S
So far so good, played ~7h so far without any issues. Optical switches they may be but to me they feel, if anything, clickier than the old mouse so far :p

System Name Never trust a socket with less than 2000 pins
That wouldn't explain cases where turning the mouse upside down and spamming the affected button solved the actual doubleclick issue. I'm not denying that it can be an issue, just that some cases might be as simple as dust being lodged in the switch.

I have never seen dust in the switches I replaced.
