My “smart” bulbs are at the less online end of the spectrum, they host local wifi or bluetooth for configuration via their app, but even that can bite you
I added a wifi range extender to address the problem of stuff at one end of the house regularly losing connection and needed to point one of a particular brand at the new wifi
Its app hadn’t been updated and I needed to dig out my old phone stuck on an old version of Android to set the bulb up again
You lost a bit of credibility when you misspelt atoms
I got depressed and pretty useless, she got sick of it and left
That word is empirically - by experiment or observation

IRL 1984 was fine. America was still good; the Soviet Union didn’t nuke us all
It doesn’t fit with the fairytale. Father bear found everything too much, mumma bear found everything too little, baby bear found everything perfect
I really need to watch Donny Darko. It’s like a hole in my soul that I’m missing it. Two holes. That and reservoir dogs.

Have you seen lock, stock and two smoking barrels? (Also not a storm film and not a heroin film)

Well here’s the English word: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/crepe#English
Unfortunately you’ll have to read the IPA to get the British pronunciation, as the only recorded version is the US pronunciation.
Visit the link I linked, listen to the samples of French speakers from different regions saying the word
Interesting that your pronunciation is listed as predominantly US, but Larson lives and lived in Washington state and pronounces it the way I and presumably the rest of the Commonwealth do
Neither of us can say the other is mispronouncing the word, it is said both ways
How did we get that way of saying it? The French version of the word has a circumflex over the e (crêpe) I’m not up on French pronunciation but I suppose that influenced how it was pronounced in English
Edit to add: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/crêpe#French
