It's kind of hilarious as a sport. There's so many Mario Kart inspired rules and, not even sure what to call them, but things like the boost when you drive over the special spot on the road.
Do I need to upgrade my bidet? Ours is one dial for cleaning mode which rotates/plugs the sprayer, and one dial for spray, which is just connected to the valve.
I don't actually use it to control anything, though I have in the past had an automation to turn off the dryer because GE is total crap and the sound on/off button busted, but the sound is super annoying. But anyway yeah, I'm actually only using these outlets for their sensors to decide if the machines are on or off.
FWIW I accomplish this with a zigbee outlet on the washer and dryer (dryer is gas, so it's not a 50a circuit). It has stats on power consumption and I have a home assistant sensor set up so that when it drops below a threshold for a period of time, it counts the washer/dryer as off and notifies me.
I mean I don't know much about what he was able to do in that role, but I imagine there are others who can step into his position and do a killer job. What he may care more about at the moment is ensuring that someone sane can continue making decisions about who goes into positions like the one he's leaving.
You can though, unless the water in the pool has no momentum. It would not be flat if the vehicle was accelerating enough to move that far in a 2-3 second dive.
To add to what everyone else is saying, it's often self inflicted via culture. When you're brought up to treat people who look different as not part of your group, that's hard to unlearn as adults and so it just self perpetuates and you end up with groups of people that never interact, sometimes fearing anyone not in "their group" for no other reason. Or even for flawed inaccurate reasons.
