    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Are they making one those stupid tiny houses? Every time I see that show, those houses all have wheels on them, basically I think tiny home is the new PC code word for trailer home.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I currently have 3 coins. Free power at work makes mining easy. Sold one coin when it hit over $1k last month, thinking it would drop and I could buy back. Read an article yesterday that says the technical analysis has bitcoin between $2k and $3k by the end of 2017.

    This is like what we have in our kitchen. Wife wants to put in a backsplash from the top of the 4 inch granite to the bottom of the cabinets. I'm not sure how that would look though.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Star Trek: Discovery Gets Delayed Again by CBS, No Premiere Date Set Looks like it delayed again, no release date give. I guess they couldn't figure out the level of diversity needed for all the characters.

    I think the owner of the account has to be the one to approve it but I'm not 100% on that. I know I've made changes to an account that I share with my parents with Verizon but that was just adding service.

    Amazon Echo - no thread yet?

    What smart switches would you all recommend? The wemo smart switch look pretty good. I think I'm going with Phillips hue for bulbs but I do have a number of areas that I can just use regular led bulbs and smart switches.

    Travelers

    I just finished it yesterday. I thought it was pretty good some plot holes but overall good. I liked how changes in the present affected the future. It was also fun seeing all the Stargate actors that were sprinkled in. Needs more naked Marcy though. I hope it gets a second season.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Nvidia is releasing an updated version of the shield at CES, so prices for current stock might go down. I have two shields and they are great, though I hope they get an update to nougat.

    Cyanogen is shutting down. Nightlies are stopping on the 31st. I guess some devs will keep the project alive under lineageos name.

    Autonomous Systems

    I never understood why Tesla didn't go with battery switching technology. Especially if Telsa owned the batteries, instead of the car owner. Seems like that would be a good way to keep costs of the car down as well as solve range issues as well as a quick and easy way to get new battery tech out...

    It was pretty clear that expected Hilldog to win and that's how they planned their season out. I would have loved to have been in the writers room Nov 9th to see the oh shit moments.

    Westworld

    When I was watching it, I kept thinking that Maeve was placed on the train by Ford to blow out Abernathy's brains so he couldn't leave the park with the code to further play into Ford's God like power in the park. Her story line makes a lot more sense though if the two techs are robots too. No...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    I've been looking at Google wifi, they use mesh technology for coverage in large homes. For 3500 sq home, it'd probably be 3 devices for $299. But since it just came out I have been waiting for reviews before pulling the trigger.

    Amazon Echo - no thread yet?

    Just looking on amazon, the A19 bulb is $20.49 and the wireless gateway is $43 for the sylvania osram lightify. The phillips hue $29 and the hub is $59. So not too much more. I've heard good things about the phillips hue. Here are the two bulbs...

    Didn't logan say that Ford had a partner that died and the place was hemorrhaging money? So the scenes with Logan are Billy are after Dolores killed Arnold and Ford wiped her memory? My take is Arnold tries to create self-awareness, they go crazy kill him, Ford wipes her, opens the park, few...

    I tried showering with my kid when he didn't want to get into a bath and that did not work out well either. Thankfully, his no bath phase only lasted a month or so. You could try to get new toys, fill up the bath tub, put the toys in there and then show him the toys and ask if he wants to get in...

    That's awesome. I know my son was a late talker too, at 18 months he had maybe 10 words. My wife was all worried but our Doctor didn't seem too worried. He just turned two saturday and has really started talking.

    That might be an issue with Hangouts. Google for what ever reason got rid of merged messages in Hangouts. Google said because it confused people but I think its because they are trying to push people to their new messaging apps

    It's a phase. My kid went through it where it was a full on tantrum trying to get him in the bath. He'd cling to one of us when trying to get him in the tub and just stand and cry while we soaped him up and rinsed him. Lasted about a month.

    But ATT owning content and being a provider is going backwards in terms of competition. This will be approved because the Comcast NBC merger was approved but we're rapidly getting to the point where all content will be controlled by the few providers in the county and none of that is good for...
