re: Kindle e readers...is the oasis worth the extra price? - gpburdell on 1/13/21 at 11:05 pm I have one and love it. I read almost every day so the premium is worth it imo. It's easier to hold and turn pages with one hand. Also I really like that the LED can do a warm white color for reading at night or in the dark. ...

re: Unifi Protect security cameras - gpburdell on 1/6/21 at 10:03 am I saw these pics today posted on the Ubiquiti subreddit for the G3 Instant camera. Looks good for $30 if you can find one.

re: Unifi Protect security cameras - gpburdell on 12/31/20 at 12:28 pm I haven't bought any UniFi cameras yet but I'm planning to. I'm planning to buy a couple of the G4 bullets, G4 dome, doorbell and assuming a G4 Flex is coming soon. My only issues is the UNVR won't fit in my network rack and I'm not keen on the Cloudkey Gen2+ to act as my NVR and I don't want a UDM...

re: What's the go-to wifi connected thermostat these days? - gpburdell on 12/17/20 at 2:32 pm I've got a 3rd gen Nest downstairs and a 4th gen Ecobee upstairs.
Hardware wise the Nest just looks nicer with the metal ring which is available in different options. Also, it's easier and quicker to change the temperature with the Nest because of that ring than the Ecobee. Though it looks lik... Posted on Tech Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |

re: Thermostat WiFi Help - gpburdell on 11/22/20 at 12:39 am I did a quick google.

re: Thermostat WiFi Help - gpburdell on 11/21/20 at 4:12 pm Configure the Orbi so that the 2.4 signal is configured for 20 Mhz channels. 2.4 supports 40 Mhz channels which gives you faster speeds but many devices don't support that. Also, if the SSID is hidden make it visible. There is no security benefit in hiding it and some devices have issue with it.... Posted on Tech Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |

Favreau and Filoni are Star Wars fans and know the source material especially Filoni.
They're like Kevin Feige and Marvel. Hopefully Kennedy gets the boot and they let Favreau/Filoni take over. I remember the quote from Kennedy about there not being books or... Posted on Movie/TV Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (3) |
