Maybe your childhood was great too but you just don't realize it? "Pretty normal" depends on your point of view.

Thankfully I can remember regular moments as well rather than the lasting memories, and it's just normal. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug and just bloats the real thing you felt in the moment back then.

Again, "regular" is a matter of perspective. Some kids receive regular beatings.

I was referring to where when the childhood is considered great though. And the point is exactly perspective, your memory is never the real thing you experienced in that moment and looking back into the past always has its own distortions of what happened. It either downplays or exaggerates.

My childhood was very much a shitfest to behold.

My childhood was really nothing special, but everything feels new and exciting when you're a kid, because everything *is* new to you. It's hard to get excited about anything the way you do when you're a kid. Video games were mind blowing. And I'd go back just to experience them for the first time again.

    How to automate the un-automatable.

    Kind of useless now considering my cat probably has a wifi chip inside it
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I guess it's useful if your landlord doesn't let you rewire the apartment or change the switches.

    Smart plugs and bulbs are already around the same price

    Wifi power strips even becoming common
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Having a remote servo that can push/pull something for you is still useful.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It could operate a latch.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    On the other hand there are those chandeliers with like 50 lightbulbs and that would be a bit expensive to replace with smart bulbs.

    Anbernic's SP clone will be $60 and I think I'll buy it. Looks decent enough and it will stop me from drooling over every single new handheld that comes out.
