An otherwise innocuous perk of moving to a new state with my old number is that the spoofs are trying to call from my old area code, and the only people from there who call me are people already in my contacts or people calling back to my number because they were spoofed. Anytime I get a call from a “could this be my…

Fact: The first concert I ever attended was a Raffi concert in the Bay Area. I was also ~4 (I could’ve been 3, not sure, my mom picked me up from daycare, we went, I did jumping jacks in the aisle for some reason... it was a different time).

I feel like this makes youthful me retroactively much cooler than current me…

The only thing I need is my Echo Dot. And my Google Home Mini. All I need is my Dot and my Mini. And my Eufy light bulbs. All I need is my Dot, Mini, and my Eufy lights.  And my VeSync plugs. All I need is Alexa, Google, apps, and a sense of self satisfaction that comes from using material things to patch over…

I shall... attempt.

Hurray for small miracles!

I’m outta the greys! I’m somebody!

Thank you kind internet-person.

I own a small collection of “smart home” devices and the like, any chance I can get out of the greys and contribute to the conversation?

Fellow Taurus, I also have plans for my event.  I intend to put the “fun” back in FUNeral, and so have stipulated a bouncy-house be at mine.  I have other ideas, but the bouncy-house is required to obtain any other possessions, otherwise the $5.05 in my savings account goes to charity.

Is there a price point for these bulbs/outlets/cameras? Your headline indicates that they’re “affordable” but I don’t see a price point.

I mean, its still a deal, but something is just not quite right...

Its about ethics in game journalism.

I agree with this take.

Ummm.... how does that Ozark folding table... work?  I don’t see how I could get into the seat or get out of the seat without knocking it around and possibly trapping myself.  Are the seats particularly wide?  Or is there some trick to it I’m not seeing?

I have this really weird habit, where I drink beer that I like and then don’t listen to anyone when they tell me my beer is bad.
