I think a great, alternative way to win people over would be to simply point out how much more efficient it is and energy-saving for their own electric bills.\n\nJust don’t warn them about how much energy they may end up ironically expending as a result of tinkering with it and fixing issues and finding cool stuff like Burn My Windows, haha… 🤫",
