  • that’s not a fair comparison because pc has people who running on hardware worse than a ps3.

    This is a benefit of using PC, not a downside. Unlike consoles, you aren’t forced to upgrade every few years and you actually have the ability to change graphics settings. Even if you want to upgrade your PC, you don’t need to get an entirely new build.

    That’s also missing the fact that plenty of people don’t need or want to play the latest AAA title.













  • Bluetooth can do it locally, but yes, for things on ZigBee or Z-Wave, it’s gotta have an antenna hub. WiFi switches and lights most likely do “phone-home” to the cloud in some way (usually for color or brightness control via app, Govee especially loves this). The down side, other than the obvious privacy implications, is that if your ISP has an outage, so do your switches.

    Home Assistant attempts to mitigate both the privacy and offline issues, while putting all of the different brands and hubs into one place.
