Well, here´s a very useful idea for NASA to work on. This could change the world forever and nothing would be the same again

What can your computer do? Almost nothing.

Back in '99 or 2000, there was a company in Scottsdale that had add-ons for your computer that could take care of your whole house. I'm sure these add-ons are still around. But I have never heard of anybody having or using them.

Just think. The computer controls your coffee machine, your alarm clock, when your drapes open and close, the room temp for every room of your house... yes, and the smoke alarm... and anything else electrical.

Back then it operated through the electrical wiring in your house. Now it could all be radio controlled if you didn't like using the wiring.

Anybody know where to look for the equipment?

<snip>You're into Bitcoin because you don't want the government involved in your money. You implied it yourself in my last thread. Oh, and if it's so childish and naive, why don't you just ignore me? <snip>

To the bolded part above:  not really.  Cold hard cash is even more anonymous than bitcoin.  I like bitcoin for other reasons, one of them being that it's a store of value.  I also like the roller coaster ride.
To the italicized part:  Oh, I just like fucking with you.

But yeah it would just lead to more explorations when our oceans are not yet fully discovered.

[on Dave's return to the ship, after HAL has killed the rest of the crew]
HAL: Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over.

HAL: I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you.

It's home automation, not home AI, and yes, there are such systems on the market still. Really not dangerous.
