You've not heard of diodes, you've not
heard of dimmers and power redusers.


Trivial to see if smartmeters have those. They dont.


I know, the smartmeters don't have those the appliance would have them.


Smartmeters dont have any way of communicating with them.


Not yet you idiot that's the point.


When they dont there is no reason not to have them, ****wit.

If they ever do start to have smartmeters that can communicate
with your own appliances, that is the time to refused to allow
them to install one of those in your house if you dont like that.

and if the appliances dont have that in them, the smartmeter can't
do a damned thing about altering the power they use anyway.


reams of your even sillier **** flushed where it belong

If the smart meters were capable of doing that, it would
be obvious from an inspection of the meter.


They aren't yet.


Trivial to see if they ever become capable of doing that.


reams of your even sillier **** flushed where it belong

When that day comes you'll know but not until then.


Even sillier than you usually manage with that last.
