    Whoa, DacoTaco themself! I instantly recognized your name from the homebrewing fun I had with it last year. Thank you for all of you efforts on the WiiU!

    If I had more time I’d love to have contributed to homebrew software but I’m just glad you’ve been able to make the sacrifice for the rest of us. In an increasingly corporate video game world where extracting the last penny is prioritized over the passion of the fans, it’s people like you that keep that magic feeling, that sparked our interest in the first place, alive.

    Speaking from experience, Zooz products have been very poor quality for me and not worth the trouble. I put those switches all throughout my house and now I’m having to replace them, one by one, to due to random failures or unreliable performance. I used a Zooz switch for an outdoor outlet (switch was indoors) and the thing stopped working but support wouldn’t do anything because it’s not a light, it’s going to an outlet. I supported them during their initial product launch, warrantied a lot of switches which helped their R&D, but customer support has 0 sympathy for me now that the warranty is over (they even disregarded the extended warranty they promised me). After all the work I’ve had to do tearing my outlets apart to replace their switches, it’s just not worth it. I wish I would’ve gone with a more expensive brand the first time, I would have saved a lot. If it’s not too late, I recommend looking beyond them.

    There’s too much truth to this, I swear I was less biased at one point. But Apple users are too often the type to scoff at data privacy, use the magical cloud for everything, know nothing about how to troubleshoot issues, pay to have XY&Z done for them regardless of how simple it is, and especially eat up all the Apple propaganda (like Android MMS being compressed to hell, which made them believe Android cameras are terrible). It’s a perfect designer phone for a wannabe designer lifestyle.
