I have one bulb, scheduled to turn on once a day

2018-10-14 18:14:33 UTC  

It surprisingly only makes two network connections to China a day.

I know a couple of features are disabled if you choose an Euro server for GDPR reasons.

2018-10-14 18:15:40 UTC  

But nothing big afaik

2018-10-14 18:15:41 UTC  

and how does it even work? i see it creates a hotspot, do i have to connect to that every time i want to change the settings?

2018-10-14 18:16:03 UTC  

Only the first time to pair with your app and account.

2018-10-14 18:16:27 UTC  

Any device with the yeelight app and your account will be able to change the settings

2018-10-14 18:16:31 UTC  

Even if not at home.

2018-10-14 18:17:32 UTC  

i see, thanks

2018-10-14 18:17:40 UTC  

i might get one, would be cool to have a light turn on with my alarm

2018-10-14 18:17:47 UTC  

That's what mine is for

2018-10-14 18:17:56 UTC  

a much much cheaper Philips wake up light

2018-10-14 18:18:02 UTC  

with more customization

2018-10-14 18:20:31 UTC  

If you're afraid of the botnet, well you gotta take the same measures you would for all IoT

2018-10-14 18:21:35 UTC  

blocking the chink ips on my network?

2018-10-14 18:26:19 UTC  

i just avoid iot shit as much as possible

2018-10-14 18:26:23 UTC  

seems like the easiest way

2018-10-14 18:46:32 UTC  

wtf

2018-10-14 18:49:00 UTC  

Yeah that's all I'd use it for if I got one, seems like a sick wakeup light

2018-10-14 18:49:19 UTC  

Like a bulb that goes yellow as the sun sets and turns white as the sun rises to help me wake up

2018-10-14 18:57:01 UTC  

i just have a lamp on a timer that blasts me in the face every morning

2018-10-14 19:16:33 UTC  

🤔

2018-10-14 19:39:59 UTC  

thats smart

2018-10-14 19:40:02 UTC  

cause light > sound

2018-10-14 19:41:16 UTC  

strap airhorn to it

2018-10-14 19:41:23 UTC  

then you have best of the both worlds

2018-10-14 19:41:28 UTC  

(and your neighbors too)

2018-10-14 22:17:03 UTC  

im on phone and willing to spend money

2018-10-14 22:17:13 UTC  

are there some good christmas cards

2018-10-14 22:17:27 UTC  

maybe 3D ones that you open

2018-10-14 22:17:33 UTC  

and cheap too

2018-10-15 02:34:38 UTC  

tfw almost everything I'm looking up is approaching the same price for prime shipping on Amazon

Is the days of AliExpress being worth a shit numbered

2018-10-15 02:35:04 UTC  

I guess you can't really get stuff like custom size costumes on Amazon yet tho

2018-10-15 02:59:19 UTC  

Exposure to normies is doing this

2018-10-15 03:37:30 UTC  

Anyone know how Xiaome/Roborock robot vacuums compare to other brands? Are they worth getting over them, or just cheaper?

2018-10-15 03:38:05 UTC  

if they worked in China they would work fine in the U.S

<:kms:327934280619655179> This should be between king and queen sized. Disputed on Ali and Ali offered half refund or full refund and I pay return shipping. What do?

2018-10-15 05:12:10 UTC  

Ali or the seller?

2018-10-15 05:12:47 UTC  

Ali. I messaged seller first with that picture saying it's smaller than I ordered, and he said "hi friend, the Aliexpress will handle it "

2018-10-15 05:14:32 UTC  

Looks like you'll have to eat the half refund because shiping it back is going to be well over 20 bucks.
