The problem with modern smart home tech is that it all presupposes that no wiring is available: all communication must be wireless. This makes the whole thing unreliable and laggy, and is a crap long-term assumption. It makes the modern smart home tooling not worth using while it matures towards... more same.

Def agree! We’ve seen this during the hurricanes as well. This extends and applies to other tech too - like the people who burned alive in their Tesla bc the circuit board was fried and they literally couldn’t manually open the door

You know the term "failsafe"? It used to actually mean "if this fails, you're still safe" and be a virtue that was assumed for new technology. I may have imagined this mythical past, but we should still pursue it.
