  • The 3 biggest issues CFLs had were their warm up time, especially in cold weather, the flicker some people are sensitive too, and they contain murcury as all florescent bulbs do. That means it is absolutely necessary to properly dispose of them so mercury doesn't get into the ground water.

  • I've been in the industry for over a decade and I find it fascinating how much lighting has changed in that time. When LEDs were first available, they were $60+ per bulb. Now you can get multipacks for under $10. Also, CFL bulbs were almost universally hated by everyone (and for good reason) now we no longer sell them. We strictly sell LEDs for regular lighting and we still sell incandescent specialty bulbs. Also, when LEDs first arrived there was a lot of distain for them, especially by the elderly. They wanted their energy wasting incandescent bulbs dammit! It seems the majority of them have come around because they've learned that LEDs are better.

  • Google makes it very easy to flash Pixels back to stock through Chrome browser. Recently I was trying to flash /e/os to my Pixel 4a 5G. I bricked it 6 times and still can't get it to install but I was able to flash back to stock easily. I recommend Graphene OS on the Pixel of you want to start taking back your life and start removing Google from it.

  • When I get the itch to play a game I'll play the Deck an hour or 2 I've the course of a few days until I beat the game or I'm distracted. If I'm not doing that the deck can sit dormant for months at a time. I'm not a huge gamer but I am a tech enthusiast. I think it's worth it but I can't get into a lot of games. I have trouble finding games that get me hooked. I'd like to play Jedi Survivor at some point but not at the current price.

  • They've lost their appeal to me. I think the last Marvel movie I saw was The Eternals which I actually liked but I haven't seen the new ant man or guardians movie. I also like the She-Hulk show. For some reason I feel like I relate to Jennifer Walters more than I should.
