    Indeed. Why would anyone use them despite not even getting paid for it but paying for it?

    Now redo it in HomeAssistant and with selfhosted music to get rid of the surveillance in your home.

    Well, this break and enter has turned into an execution for the mashing of IP.

    The TOS Kirk v. Hostile alien music would be more appropriate. The Borg never threatened to kill, they aren't Ingo Montoya.

    Fuck that noise.

    You want a fight? You better be blasting Duel of the Fates, otherwise I don't want any.

    You should really consider never using Alexa again.

    Seriously, this is Spyware in your home for Amazon, and they work with and share their data with law enforcement.

    I always thought it'd be cool to build one of those remote controled nerf tanks but with a paintball gun. Then set it to patrol the house. It's a lot more doable now that I'm running home assistant but I'm still not sure how yo make it happen.

    I prefer Ride of the Valkyries to Imperial March.

    Does the floor lamp have a "strobe" mode?

    This is actually a better home protection plan than "have loaded guns in every room in case I need to draw on the baddies stealing my Xbox as they barge into my living room and I dive behind the sofa." It will scare 9/10 burglars away, and it gives you an opportunity to set up a defensive position without noise giving it away.

    Imperial March is out of sorts here. The alert the message and then a John Williams march? Get some audio to set the mood, like No Love by Death Grips or Caledonia by Cro-Magnon.

    Say "I'm gonna do to you what Janeway should have done to Tuvix at the start of the episode."

    Play "Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing On Rainbows - 12 hour version"

    Sounds like an American WWII propaganda song
