chess or other board games are inexpensive and you can learn a lot and make friends along the way.
Fotography can be expensive, but if you do it just as a hobby, you could take your phone or get a cheap camera and try to get up early on weekends and take some photos of the city.
reading books, especially about animals (specifically birds) could be an option too.
That is so annoying.
Philipps is a shady company and I support anyone who decides not to buy from them ever again.
With the Hue bulbs the force you to share data, so I had to manually install an old version of the app just to not share data - no other way to opt out. So I can't say I'm surprised they pulled something like this.
tl;dr: Keep away from Philipps!
Why would it need to be activated? they usually run on a closed network, with no internet connection anyways
You should see the egg farms of TOTK!
