    11pm. Early enough that they can’t just ignore it until morning and will have to search the entire house, unable to sleep until the find it.

    I hate speakers with open bluetooth. I’d rather have to press a button than let anyone in range potentially have control, partially for shit like this, partially just because someone looking to connect to their own device might pick mine on the list if theirs isn’t showing up.

    My soundbar is very good at always showing up on that bluetooth device list and I have had neighbours randomly connect to it. I’ll usually turn the bt off at that point, but it’s usually on because I use it sometimes. Just wish it had some sort of security instead of being designed for people who might have enough trouble getting the power on.

    Brad had this coming. He’s such a cunt.

    But besides that, play water dripping and pouring late at night when he definitely sleeps and enjoy the thought of him waking up in a pissed bed.

    Seems like a perfect opportunity to ram ranch him, but the smoke alarm chirps are solid and potentially longer lasting

      The great things about the chirps is that you can space them randomly quite far apart from each other so that he can never get quite enough data to locate them.

        This is exactly why it’s so nefarious. Without a constant sound he won’t be able to locate where it’s coming from, and so you can keep the chirps going for days or weeks on end while the guy tears his house apart looking for a smoke alarm that doesn’t exist

    I’m trying to figure out whether this is a felony or not under the notorious CFAA

    In practice, any ordinary computer has come under the jurisdiction of the law, including cellphones, due to the interstate nature of most Internet communication.

    Maybe it depends on whether those speakers are only bluetooth or somehow internet connected?

    I zoomed in to see Dad more clearly and the first words that came to my mind “Dad’s a choad.” Whatever that means.

    I once discovered that the waffle house jukebox is accessible online. Me and some friends were drinking and played all star for 4 hours straight. Someone tried at one point to insert other songs, but there was an option to give your song priority.

    The jukebox went dead around 3am.

      The local bars near me have that, and I can reach them from my house.

      My playlists always begin and end with Photograph by Nickleback, and in between is… interesting. I like to ease in with a few weird-for-a-bar but not bad (My Heart Will Go On, some Babymetal, etc) and work my way toward the really weird (showtunes, especially from Avenue Q), ending with the bad (like the 30 minute Sufjan Stevens song). Then Nickleback again, and back to your country music.

        Local bars here have the same thing.

        The app won’t let you play the same song twice in a row. But, if it’s the same song on a different album, no worries.

        My go to is 5 or 6 sweet home Alabamas in a row. I’ve only done 2 or 3 times, much to my friends chagrin.

        These days I get side eyes from the very first sweet home Alabama. Heck, I’ll be sitting home on my couch and get texts from buddies, “are you screwing with me? Are you playing sweet home Alabama right now?!”

        Usually it wasn’t me. Usually. 🤫
