Americans voted for Republicans to control all branches of the government.

So you are leaving your laptop behind as the server?

What's your budget? I'd build a separate server but that's me. I would think you could get old hardware practically free that would run your services fine by checking Craigslist and your local recycling center.

They already said they are going to charge $30/year for patches. They want recurring revenue from ads in 11 or from you paying yearly for 10.

This is an ad for Clippy. Trump and his team need it. They don't know how to function by themselves.

No, it's her dad.

He's an anchor baby.

She's had 8 years to leave. She's just as bad as he is. Remember her wearing a jacket with "I really don't care" in giant letters ~6 years ago when Trump was separating children from their parents and then losing the children?

Oh sure it can be a problem. My issue is with the endless videos that do nothing but categorize and diagnose.

It's like what if there were endless videos about, "10 signs you are bad at math."

I just want a printer that doesn't require you to upload your gcode to their cloud server before getting permission from them to print.

I think classifying yourself can limit your growth potential. Just because you are autistic today doesn't mean you have to stay that way. You can change yourself, if you want. If not, that's fine too.

If you're well organized your autistic, if not, you are ADHD. If you fall in the middle, you are both.

I know I'm old man shouting at clouds but it seems like social media is completely focused on classifying. It seems silly. It's like Meyers Briggs personality tests.

If Bosch had sold the dishwasher with a rinse button, and then disabled it via a firmware patch, I would be pissed as well.

When Bosch disables old Home Connect users in 15 years, that's exactly what will happen.

so they could be screwing me if they want.

They are screwing you. There was no reason for them to spend development money and servers that require constant money for maintenance to disable features on your dishwasher if there wasn't profit.

As I said, I didn't know. I bought the exact same model that I bought the year before that didn't need an app. I considered returning it but I have kids and dishes to do. I spent hours installing it only to find it wanted an app when I went to use it the first time.

New dishwashers are all slow because of energy/water savings. When I need dishes done fast I use the 60 minute setting that runs everything at full blast.

But as I already explained, that's not true. They gave you the illusion of value add by removing features. Look at your exact model, built in, from 3 years ago. It has buttons for half load, delay and delicate. It's easier to push a button than find your phone and start the app. If your Internet is temporarily down, you don't have those features.

If the app was used for additional features, I'd agree. But they removed features to give the illusion of value add.

E is Easy, not a Doctor.

Even in my very high end Bosch ($1800 one), they removed buttons from their older version and put it into their revenue extraction cloud.

The exact same model from the previous year had a "half load button". The new one requires you to register with their cloud service and use the app.

So the app only appears to give more because they removed features from the previous version.

Doctor

As the video explains, if it was optional to add features, that's fine. But you can't access basic features like "rinse only" without connecting your dishwasher to their cloud service.

It's offensive. I got a Bosch last year because my other Bosch is good. I saw the cloud requirements and got enraged too. I should have sent it back. But I had the higher end version that has the time screen and put only the more obscure features behind their cloud revenue extraction.

Fuck Bosch.

Recipe?
