Honestly, I thought those 'smart' lightbulbs were just a dumb gimmick until my wife bought a 4-pack for our living room.

Ngl, I gave her so much grief about it. I'm a guy who just wants a switch that works, you know? But she set them up on her phone in like 10 minutes. Now we've got them on a schedule to turn on at sunset and dim down at 10 PM. I haven't touched that switch in weeks. It's weirdly convenient. What's a tech thing you were totally wrong about being useless?

You know what's funny? This happens with so much stuff that seems pointless at first. I fought getting a robot vacuum for months, called it a lazy thing, but now I love that little guy. It's like we get stuck on how things should work instead of just trying the new way. Makes me wonder what else I'm being stubborn about for no good reason.

Seriously, it's wild how many things we buy and then just forget about. I see it with so much stuff around my house collecting dust. Makes you wonder why we even bother sometimes.
