There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

I have an old Roomba that doesn't have wireless connectivity, except infra-red. They don't build them like that any more. All new models have bluetooth and wifi, no matter if you use that, or not. They will drive around with that extra hardware, maybe even supply it with power, even if you just use the hardware buttons to control it.

Some ppl are paranoid about someone remote hacking their Roomba. I doubt it's possible, but still it's priceless to have a "dumb" one.
