I told the AT&T sales guy at the store that that's what I had to do with Cox and he just laughed and said I don't have to do that with U-Verse, just come in to the store when the promo is finished and he'll apply whatever promo is going on at the time.

Just switched from Cox to U-Verse today.  Internet doesn't feel any different, I was on Cox's 25Mbps plan, and Speedtest.net usually comes out to about 30~32Mbps.  I have U-Verse's 18Mbps plan, and Speedtest.net is testing out to 22Mbps.  TV looks better to my untrained eyes, but now I can't get...

Did you verify that it's actually turning off the AC unit?  My labels are all wrong.  Nothing turns off what it says it's supposed to turn off.

I've been contemplating the Lockitron plus Doorbot setup so I can open the door for friends and family without leaving the couch.  I realized these intercom plus remote unlocking tech has been available forever.  We had one of these systems in our apartment in Taiwan 25 years ago when I was...

You can quickly calculate how much power a device may be sucking if it has a power adapter brick.  Nighthawk's power adapter shows a 12V 4A rating, 12*4 = 48 watts.  Keep in mind, that's maximum wattage, so it may not be using all that power all the time.

And apparently, now he's suing the girl who took the video for defamation! 

I was enrolled in this program last year, but just realized that I have to re-enroll every year.  Signed up again, hoping I can catch the tail end of this.  Nest should keep the information in their system, I was doing this on my iPad and had to switch the tabs back and forth between the Nest...

One issue I'm having with the Nest now is that it's not learning fast enough.  My SCE bill last month was a whopping 280.00, so I decided to turn up the Nests, but it keep reverting back to the lower temperature that I've been using.  I guess it's going to take a week for it to learn my new...

Have you tried Love Letter inside H Mart's food court?  Their fried chicken reminds me of the ones my mom makes.  Very tasty.

But the experience would be compromised.  Z-Wave thermostat from Radio Thermostat and Honeywell don't have the features offered by Nest or Honeywell 9000.  There's no ceiling fan module like what Insteon makes.  If I want the features I want, I have to go cornucopia on different technologies. ...

How is the chirashi compared to Sushi Koto?

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.  If the new position is going to be more stressful, I would assess whether or not you're happy where you are now.  Being where I am now, I would gladly take less money to reduce stress.

I got a couple of ceiling fans that are operated by remote control only, and I needed to somehow get a timer on them.  Went down to Smart Home across from Tustin Legacy and picked up a couple of Insteon FanLincs and a Insteon hub, so now I can schedule when the fan comes on and turns off with my...

Not really.  The taro balls are the main event.  They just use shaved ice instead of ice cubes to cool down the whole thing, it's still very liquid-y rather than icy.

http://www.meetfresh.net/ Meet Fresh, a Taiwanese dessert chain opened up in Diamond Jamboree.  Line is ridiculous, and for what you get, it's pretty expensive ($6.50 a bowl).  Hard to describe what they sell, but it's pretty much taro mochi ball in syrup with shaved ice.  You can add stewed...

Lakers just got Boozer off waivers

The Nest actually has a Zigbee radio built in as an easter egg.  With the new financial backing of Google, it would be easy for them to enable the radio and talk to various sensors.

I have a Neato, which was said to be better than a Roomba when I was researching the lazy man's vacuum.  I have it set to run every weekend when we're out.  In the last 6 months I had it, it has only completed vacuuming the entire upstairs once.  All other times, it got stuck under the bed...

I got a 12% bump from last year.  I've been getting the yellow notices for years, and last year was the first time I can remember getting a blue notice.  They took it all back this year with another yellow notice. I did not realize they can recover their reduction, I thought the cap was 2% from...

$16/sq ft is too much even for nice real hardwood.  High quality solid wood floor should cost you $12~$14/sq ft.  I would go with standard carpet with the builder and get a outside contractor to do the floor after you close.
