I spent 5 minutes wondering who thought adding bluetooth to a b***plug was a good idea to start with ...
I used to do an occasional series about daft IoT devices but that's the first I heard of any of those three hackable "devices" ...

There are ~7.8 billion people on the planet. If any activity to do with sex is physically possible, I'm sure that there is at least one person who has tried it.

For some people that's probably part of the appeal. It takes all kinds.

Which, come to think of it, is a description that is essentially a self-referential commentary.

So then, you won't mind uploading it to a public share where we can all download it without providing an email address?
Otherwise, no, it's NOT free - the cost is getting your email address added to their phishing database.

By your point...your message isn't even free. I had to burn calories, energy (computer), oxygen and numerous other things just to read it. But, feel _free_ to keep on posting your points that you charge so heavily for.

Apparently I’m up tomorrow. I wasn’t expecting to solve one because I haven’t even worked the what daily CCC title stands for yet . WSO? CCC – “cryptic crossword clue”? (club?), OTD - “on this day”. I'm pleading the lateness of the hour here in my time zone.
Yes I’m very new to this. I only started looking at the daily CCC’s about a month or so ago and I’ve found they have become quite addictive and lots of fun.
I know that you only have four hours to solve the puzzle, but are there any other rules/guidelines I should be aware of?
// TODO: insert something here

Winner Stays On (used on some pool tables in UK pubs: the winner of a game stays on to play the next guy.)
Cryptic Crossword Clue
Of The Day
Posted normally between 08:00 and 09:00 UTC (so I think that's 19:00 to 20:00 in Canberra / Sydney?) and lasts for four hours from the moment you post it.
Try thinking of a word, and break it down: see if you can get anything that might make a sentence if you quint at it a bit!
For example, a recent one of mine: I started with the solution: ASSASSIN and saw three word: ASS, ASS, and IN.
IN is easy: "Trendy, fashionable, ..."
ASS has many meanings: "Idiot, to move fast (as in 'haul ass'), sure (as in 'bet your ass'), a donkey, the bit you sit on."
Take two meanings for ASS: "bottom" and "Donkey", one for "IN": "trendy", the defintion: "killer", and some punctuation to mislead people with and you get:
Bottom donkey - trendy killer (8)"
So try it: pick a word!
Just try not to overthink it: if it gets too long, it may not be solved!
If it is solved, the solver gets to set the next. If not, you get to try again. Three unsolved in a row from the same setter, and it reverts to the person who set the clue they solved.
That's pretty much it for the rules!
