No, the described dichotomy doesn't exist (at least for me). There is more options to failing than a) not working hard or b) being stupid (to use the example from the article). There is c) my mood, d) the circumstances, e) luck , ... and all combinations of them. I don't need the option of "I did not work hard" to preserve self worth. I avoid working hard because it's ... hard, not to justify failure later.

I don't get the "although": Are they happy that Gemini was not used in cybercrime oder are they bothered because somebody used a (probably better) alternative?
However, several officials and energy experts have rejected the idea that renewables are to blame. EU energy commissioner, Dan Jørgensen, stated that there was "nothing unusual" about the electricity mix at the time of the blackout, and that the outage was not due to a "specific source energy". [1]
I was offered to return it or try to fix it myself. In the end the fix was even easier than initially thought and it's working great since. No idea if that's because I am in the EU market and not US. They did take their time to respond but otherwise service was ok.
