Wtf is wrong with that site? Why is the font size tied to scrolling?
- Comment on why does every single flashlight have multiple settings that you have to scroll through? 2 months ago:
The most logical programming is
- Double tap for brightness level Triple tap for sos - this whole setting is optional Quadruple tap to reset to default Single tap for on and off and it remembers last setting.

- Comment on How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years? 2 months ago:
Killer of LED bulbs is heat. If you have some in fixtures that trap heat you should either replace the fixtures or get high quality bulbs for those fixtures. Look for bulbs rated for hot locations. And for outdoors make sure it’s rated for wet areas.

I had one flicker after 8 years and the company replaced it for free. The rest of my 10 year old bulbs are still working fine. I wish they would die though to give me an excuse to replace them with the better color versions. Many of mine are still the old ones with green that can only go to 🍋🟩 lime.

I added all my 10 year+ Hue bulbs to a zigbee stick about 4 years ago. I control them with Home assistant and Zigbee2mqtt. They were a bit flakey at first but after awhile now with updates they have been flawless. Best thing is you still get firmware updates through z2m. Highly recommend using Hue bulbs for their long term support and quality. I have had 1 bulb start flickering and Hue actually replaced it, free of charge.

But he said the reason for one right up front. They are for office workers to have a few cans on hand. Your office won’t go after the power usage and they are not massive heavy boxes. So they are perfect for office workers.

- Comment on What causes a CFL to suddenly start working again 3 months ago:
Micro vibrations, jet flying over, truck driving by, or maybe the other lights in the fixture vibrated the “broken” one enough to screw it back in. Did you know CFL bulbs can unscrew themselves from the vibrations they make? Also change in temperature could cause the metal to expand or contract causing the bulb that unscrewed itself to make contact again.
- Comment on Does the Minecraft movie really look that bad? Only a 10-year-old can tell us 3 months ago:
I’ll wait and pirate it. I refuse to give money to these horrible video game movie cash grabs. They are just destroying the industry so they can go another 10 years saying Videogame-Movies don’t work. They can work if you let the fans do them. Just look at the first season of the Witcher, Cavill was perfect. Give us a Zelda/Link movie and make it good. Don’t cast random celebrities, the characters are already celebrities! Also Metroid if the Zelda movie was good.
- Comment on Redirect to prevent back button 3 months ago:
This could easily be fixed by the browsers but they don’t. Sure wish these back button tricks would stop. Especially news sites try to keep you from getting back to your search and makes your page refresh over and over. I wonder if that behavior counts as hits to their advertisers.
