I think you’re vastly overstating the complexity, but I do acknowledge the concern.

My #1 rule is never do something that causes another car to have to brake.

How do we know for sure these aren’t just refurbed Galaxy Note 7s???

I’ve seen a lot of shit on the net

Pro tip: If you don’t already watch her YouTube channel you need to start. She’s hilarious. And profound and awesome and cool. But mainly hilarious.

I have to say, as an HA enthusiast, I personally would never put in any of the wifi versions of switches. Z-wave, Insteon, etc are much more mature technologies. Ones like Insteon are actually dual band (power line and wireless) so you can really get some great coverage. It could be because I’ve never used wifi HA

Wow, Sam you really must think your audience is dumb. It’s either that or you have been living under a rock. X10, Zigbee, Lutron, and Z-Wave switches have been around for a LONG time. I use Z-Wave switches in my house since using just lightbulbs is likely to die a lot sooner then a switch. They run around $35-$45 a

Yeah, this looks like a paid ad to me and Gizmo just passing it off as an ‘article’. You can get a smarthings hub (or any other hub that supports the zwave or zigbee standard) for around $80 and then add smart switches that are around 25-35 bucks each. Much cheaper and use existing standards that can connect to alexa,

Really? X10 systems and more recently (as in the last 15 years) Insteon have been doing precisely this (in addition to replacing the mounting box on units connected to 3-way lamps.) at the switch. *sigh*

I like how the “after” picture is cropped and badly angled so you really can’t see what the tongue looks like now. Good job photographer for the University of Edinburgh.

Yeah but my crappy one works just fine and $70 is a lot of money

I don’t chug my beer, so initial temperature is less important than temperature over duration.

The story couldn’t possibly be that she wanted to disrupt everything by having the crew search through the checked luggage. No, its gotta be because she’s black.  

An Authoritarian wanting to control the media?

Now playing

Every time I see yet more of the stupid bollocks the “fucking moron” in Office drools out I want him to watch The Newsroom.

There’s a lot that is laughable about Trump but none of it is funny.

Agreed. I have done much more difficult image recovery, with a hell of a lot less to work with, and I am NOT a pro.

Why was this considered impossible? This is a pretty nice and easy photoshop job even for someone like me who is not a graphic designer. The buildings behind it are super regular and no problem to patch up. Just a copy, paste, skew, and add a bit of detail to avoid seeing double.

i have the Google Pixel XL. it’s pretty great. My only beef so far is that the plug to charge no longer fits right so i have to angle it just right to charge it.
