Just set up my HUE lights... I feel overwhelmed


They're not bad. What questions do you have? Read up on ifttt and stringify to do some extra cool stuff.

Android? Try the huegasm and hue switcher apps. Loads of fun.

I got them set up and played with them for a little while last night.. pretty badass IMO.

I will go check out IFTTT in a minute.. I went and looked at your other hue threads and I’ve seen you mention them before

I think we all understand what you're saying.


I don't think yall are understanding what CAD/KORK/others are saying. They are trying to say that people that take the "I'm not important enough" mentality dont understand they are the "weakest link" that the "bad" people (Gov or criminals) look for to get access to other peoples systems.

Somehow, you're not seeing ours though?


They are seeing yours/hangovers/etc point, and it scares them as yall are a part of the problem with the "it's all good" selfish mentality. Though I did chuckle seeing hangover turn a bit to at least be open to do the basics to help the cause.

Btw - Good read yall

Do you know if ATT Uverse does this kind of thing? And how do you change the router settings/password?

The geek squad thing was not surprising. I have a 27" imac that stopped turning on, and Im not sure how to take it in where I dont leave it with some apple nerd able to look around at private docs etc for days.
