Sadly, most of these smart bulbs have failed (despite all their whiz bang feature set) to offer a solution to the problem.
PROBLEM: You put your child to bed, and as soon as you leave they turn the light back on.
SOLUTION: Offer a smart bulb I can turn off or disable remotely, even better yet, set a timer.
PROBLEM: Most of these smart bulbs come on when you turn on the switch. That's the exact opposite of what I want. I want the bulb to be de-activated from when I set it to say 7am. So that my kids cannot turn it back on.
Ability to turn off light remotely, and have it stay off!!!!
With this feature I'll buy a $50 lightbulb, without out it - I'm not buying.
Why? Because as any parent knows. As soon as you put your kid to bed, the first thing they do is wait to hear your steps depart, get up, and turn on their light. Above functionality would allow parents to turn off the light. And keep it off for set time.
Presently, all these smart bulbs have a bunch of features, but if you turn them on at the switch...they come on. We need a feature to prevent that for parents the world over.
This happens, when you a) greatly expand the water consumption b) in a desert c) drain a higher basin greedily because you're !@#$ California and the most populous state so screw anyone else. d) never invest in de-salinization plants along your coastline or good water management practices.
The fact that after nearly a 100 years of irrigation you're getting high salt build up in no surprise. It's the expected result of poor industrialized agricultural practices.
Warmer temperatures mean far more humidity, moisture, and the rescinding of deserts. The highest desertification periods in earth's history are often during the ice ages, when so much of the earth's moisture and water content has been frozen.
Let me exemplify. When do you need a humidifier in Connecticut? Is it during the warm muggy summer or the dry winter?
Pretty much all those who claim to be, and have any age under their belt, wear other degrees. Physics, specialties on atmospheric physics, geology, meteorology, climatology (regional climate evaluation), etc.
Oh as for those economists, some of which have taken some of the highest aspects of statistics. They tend to be EXTREMELY qualified at evaluation of the methods used for reaching conclusions. Realize, these are the guys who have billions of dollars riding on their statistics conclusions.
I remember 6 billion would be an impossible threshold. The world would have had a global collapse. I believe there were some who said the same of 1 billion. We'll probably soon be at 10 billion.
I am always surprised when sci-fi shows exclaim that some destroyed planet had millions, or 300 million inhabitants.
Really, cause I just once want to here "There were 200 billion people on that planet."
In fact, a great many have expressed a) doubts regarding this being the hottest period on record or b) doubts that it is caused by man.
That said, try to say that in the government grant funded, let's get ourselves an international tax (because that is REQUIRED before you can have an international army). Go check out the relationship between we these United States and the Federal Government which usurped the states on many levels.
One thing you'll notice. The Federal government gain accesses to taxes, the more and more access to taxes the Federal government received, all while the states received less access. The result is what we have today, the Federal government wields most all of the power.
How long do you think the UN with a tax base would last before it formed a security defense force? How long until it needed more taxes to support the ever increasing peace keeping missions? how long until the first UN draft of young men for war?
Oh, and remember, the UN has neither the protections of human rights that America and most of Europe has, nor does it have a democratic foundation. In the UN a tyrant like Gaddafi has equal rights to the entire nation and continent and democratically elected government of Australia. That is SCARY!!!!
I've met and seen many scientists argue against GWA. In fact, many meterologists and geologists....which mind you, until the recent creation of "climatology" were the DE FACTO experts on climate.
I've seen numerous staticians cite incorrect methods.
I've watched laymen document poor evidence collection methods en masse.
I've seen and heard blatant fear mongering, and antagonism, and professional censoring of anyone who disagrees.
Heck, per the old school definitions, the earth is STILL in an ice age.
How are we royally !@#$%, in earth's recent history (approx. 75 million-150 million year ago), rather than a few seconds ago (1,500 years) the earth had several times more CO2, which some evidence points to an even more rapid increase....and well....plants flourished and so did animals.
And many of the years touted were el nino years, so I guess much of the fear mongering is based on weather and not climate?
Every time I hear that dismissive expression, I want to bash a global warming alarmist in the face with a snow ball. Because NO ONE, uses weather to argue for their position more than GWA advocates.
The problem with competing is how hard it is to lay all the connecting cable. You're either digging up roads and laying conduit (expensive, disruptive, traffic nightmare) or plopping down telephone poles (expensive, disruptive, traffic nightmare but somewhat cheaper than the last suggestion).
What we need is a robot that can burrow a 12" in conduit tunnel, while 3D printing it's own pipe, the result would be a technology who's non-disruptive nature would make it an extremely disruptive technology. Suddenly, all I need to lay fiber is a conduit droneand a man above the surface direction it's path while another refills it's 3D printer toner cartridge.
Realize it was planned a few years prior....so let's be honest, let's blame Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush Jr, Obama....and anyone else with a D||R
Until we get smart and change it to DNR (DO NOT RE-ELECT), we're gonna be screwed.
Agree with pretty much all of the above. Also, Comcast and Verizon should NOT be able to sell each other's services on their websites. Conflict of interest!!!
In a commodity industry, during an economy in which the average consumer is hard pressed to get a 1%-2% return on an investment.
So yes, that's pretty good. And also remember that there are a LOT more profits there that are hidden, and distributed under tax law.
If I earn $10 billion, but pay my executives $1 billion in salary, which I deduct as a business expense... the solution to companies paying taxes was to minimize net revenue and pay much of the wealth to the elites.
Slashdot Mirror
Yup....and when we re-wire, we might just do that.
Our current solution - remove all the lightbulbs.

Have issues....

I know, I know...citation, citation.
a) I'm not your !@#$% google. I've already read and researched this crap. It's not my responsibility to deal with your laziness.
b) quick google and you'll find your citations.

And so has the the Tea Party...
You can ALWAYS find someone more to the extreme. Heck, even the KKK protested and opposed the Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptists.
It's faster. We could make plied bamboo 2x4 replacements. Have a building boom.
Who has more money riding on math than economists?
And this is abnormal for a planet still coming out of an ice age?

Just now.....all my friends on Facebook are exclaiming and asking what can they burn to help global warming.
Go figure...

They really made $2,000, they just hid most of that other $1,000 in tax loopholes.
