Do folks have opinions on the best alarm/monitoring system? I’d originally bought a SimpliSafe system but they don’t work with secure or local WiFi networks so I’m returning it. Something comparable but with modern tech standards would be great.
Didn’t realize Red Lobster was this desperate 🦞

$400,000 worth of lobster stolen en route to Costco stores, shipper says
The lobsters, which were not alive, were on their way to Costco stores in Illinois and Minnesota, according to Rexing Companies.

Kerr went back to his old habits and the Warriors lose.

We win when Draymond plays less, when Pods isn’t in crunch time minutes, and when Hield gets a DNP. Until Kerr realizes that we won’t win clutch games - and we’ll continuing playing clutch games that should have been blowouts.

Refs ruining yet another game

Refs just ruined a classic Christmas game to bail out the nuggets.

Anyone else noticed the BlueSky has not been scaling smoothly the past few weeks? Discover feed often just outright down, search lagging or won’t load.

I said after the first game of the season that I felt the Spurs were the team to beat this year.

Seems I can stand by that comfortably.

The best thing about the Christmas Day schedule this year is that as long as the Warriors win they pull a full game closer to three teams guaranteed

Never thought I’d find myself feeling bad for Patriots fans but damn - never seen such blatant pass interference not called

A few Warriors hot takes (some mild, some spicey)

1) Draymond should be playing *at most* the role of the 7th man

2) JK will flame out wherever he lands. Even wiseman was better.

3) If Kerr started Will every game he’d be ROY

4) Most of the Warriors have no idea how to play with or utilize Steph

Well shit.

I mean - I was disappointed with dems in the legislation in the first place cause it was obvious this would be the outcome the moment they were like “minus any redactions for things classified”

Basically anything can be categorized as classified.

It made it immediately merely performative.

Hey Kerr, please sit JK again. Preferably until forever.

Put someone with better decision making like Richard’s in.

What are the betting odds that Steph Curry reaches 5k career 3s before retirement?

Inherited two Nest learning thermostats - abysmal devices. Anyone know how to make them stop learning / if there’s an app where their schedule is actually manageable?

On Tesla’s current trajectory they will become a blip of a footnote in EV history within 8 years - but at what point does its stock fall?

Hottest Take: Anthropic knows they are cooked and believe that once the bubble pops data centers will revert to being more traditional infra. Bun is a play for their future cloud offering.
if Anthropic's going to blow billions of dollars and destroy the earth we may as well get a fast JS runtime out of it

I’m a warriors fan and this was still one of my favorite moments.

An all-time great defender, trying to jaw and get in the head and space of the young star … young star just cooly taking care of business and letting him know he can do whatever he wants…
HOOOOOOOOOOOLY 💩 VICTOR...
They called a foul on the floor but Wemby slamming on Draymond on the inbounds is cinema and Wemby let Dray know after the slam
