When you're a defendant in a criminal case... you don't talk about the case in the press. This is the first thing her lawyer told her, and she risks having her lawyer substitute out if she ignores it.

At most, California could add nine. Assuming the crazy plan to do so works, which is far from guaranteed.

Billionaires with no political experience have such a great track record of winning statewide office here in California in the last 30 years. I'm sure he'll do super well.

Wired, Rolling Stone, and Teen Vogue aren't afraid of getting banned from the WH, POTUS events, AFO, or executive branch press rooms because they were never there in the first place.

Outlets whose bread and butter is the ins and outs of daily reporting are very much afraid of those bans.

That site is a nice idea. But until there's a way to read on an e-ink device, it's a nonstarter for me. I read blog posts and short articles on my phone -- not books.

If there was a way to filter the books they have without DRM, I'd buy those there, but as far as I can tell, there isn't.

I love Miracle unashamedly, and he was great in it.

But Executive Decision is one of my favorite bad movies.

Crimson Tide. Keep the big guy from OG Law & Order who plays chief of the boat. (I forget his name but it sounds like you're sneezing.)

. . .replace stuff slowly instead of all at once, start looking for sales of whatever you want to buy. I think I'm finally going to bite the bullet and get #Phillips. I know it's expensive but I'm tired of screwing around with shitty companies. #sengledoutage #smarthome

Rinse and repeat! If you don't already have the Sengled skill enabled in Alexa, you should add it first.

This should work for now. But I will caution that if Sengled is really kaput, eventually the skill will die and this workaround may not work either. So if you'd rather . . . 5/

If your bulb was already in the Alexa app because you had the Sengled hub connected, go ahead and delete that version of the bulb. 4/

Once it's paired, Alexa will tell you and give the bulb a generic name. In the Alexa app, you can rename it, add it to groups, whatever. 3/

... put it in pairing mode. It should flash three times. Then say "Alexa, discover devices." It will tell you it's looking and in the next 20-30 seconds your light should flash. 2/

Hello, searchers! It's definitely everyone. There's a huge thread on /r/smarthome about it:

If you are using a zigbee bulb on a sengled hub, you can connect it to another zigbee hub, like certain Alexa models or Smartthings.

I wish I knew!

Okay. Sorry it's you too, but I'm also glad it's not just me!

I sent a message to support, for all the good it will do. I got the hub because the Sengled bulbs glitched when using Alexa as a hub, but I'm considering switching back...
