Awesome stuff, thank you! A tiny wee bit of an issue: Copying to clipboard does not work on firefox dev edition, had to get the code from source as selecting was disabled on the <pre>. Also, why force downloading the whole library? Wh

They have very competitive pricing and I haven't had major issues with them, polite and fast support as well. The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way is that they downright refuse to delete your credit card from their system when y

Philips already ships the absolute best zigbee light hijacking device with their bloom and living colors lamps. The remote. The first thing I did when I got my hue set was try to see if the bulbs worked with the living colors remote. Not on

Some bulbs have a reset function built in, triggered by cycling the power. I believe that for GE bulbs it's 3sec off, 3s on repeated a couple of times.

Nope! But I suspect reply owners, even if in disagreement, hit the upvote button to buy more eyeballs. I may or may have not upvoted your comment.

You have to understand that Atom is repurposed webkit, with all the flaws and benefits that come with a browser engine. I liked it, the dealbreaker (to say the least) for me was broken support for non-US keyboard layouts, it can't diff

Simple, but clever, love it. Reminds me of that old Trek debate: "If those were really stars in the warp effect you'd reach the other end of the galaxy in a couple of seconds".

You're right. People could do that to save their upload bandwidth, because unless you route your network through the device it can't know how much of your bandwidth it's stealing and if you're currently using it etc. I suspect most of the t

Peer to peer backup? Reminds me too much of Skype Supernodes. The premise is sound but in reality you're paying $10 a month to help distribute other people's data via your own bandwidth? This goes both ways, of course, but how long until so

I'm being offered a "Serbo-Croatian" translation and the site's captcha is broken. Might be unwise to judge authority on the subject just from that, however I decided not to read the article.
