Are there any non-botnet smart light options? Would bluetooth only smart lights be any bit better than wifi enabled smart light?

I cant find info on these things anywhere. Only some slightly more expensive ones but im poor so the cheaper the better so long as if suffices. Basically I just want something to use outside when camping to watch movies/tv shows etc on. Pic related

So..

Went to upgrade ram from 8gb dual 3200 to 16gb dual 3200
>went corsair vengeance pro RGB 3200
>try to boot into bios .. nope. no display. pc is fine, all running
>debugger cpu light on msi b450m mortar
>Ryzen5 3600
>win home unactivated 64bit

What do? Are these really incompatible, it says its good for intel xmp not amd.. and i know my board needs xmp to run 3200 (which it IS currently doing but only on 8gb). I should have the most recent bios too.

- So if i'm a retard i can return the ram for something else - recs or link me to where i can find compatibility?
- If this should be working... how?

Thanks faggots. I hate technology.

Could somebody shill me a video player that doesn't behave like stuttering garbage? Alternately, can someone recommend how to configure VLC to not behave like stuttering garbage?

Fuck IRC, this shit is fucking doomed. Freenode was the last holdout through inertia alone, why the fuck would I want to go back to some garbage featureless protocol that can't handle the most basic of modern chat requirements? OMG Libera is free of the badman on Freenode, like I give a fuck.

Synapse is fucking hot garbage but at least Matrix has basic fucking amenities for handling pleb bullshit and has an API that allows you to actually create services on it.
