I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It’s such a small specific thing, one I’d never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now.
What are your small, “random” or “junk drawer” type of gadgets that you actually use or like having around?
My circle unfortunately calls it a Roomba, even if it’s off brand.
Kind of like how sometimes we call tissues Kleenex.
As soon as I find a decent mop and vacuum that doesnt require the internet for full features I am buying it
If you’re willing to put in some work https://valetudo.cloud/ is a great project that takes an off the shelf vacuum and de-internets it.
You can also make an IoT special WiFi connection without any links in the rest of the home network.
Some routers have this or at the very least a guest network option.
Its more the data getting back out of the house i dont want so the guest wifi woupdnt work. I will look into the IOT network.
I make sure to remind people mine is a Conga (real brand)
