Lmao I noticed this as well. I was once banned from Facebook for using the word "snigger".

Had to look up niggle, was not disappointed in the least.

>light bulb

>reset process

That's all the article I need to be convinced.

At this point in time, there is no "smart" product that is worth buying. They ALL have security flaws.

At least it doesn't have a clock to set for it to work.

Yes, but they saved $0.002 (not Verizon math) per unit by not adding a switch component.

Any idiot that buys a lightbulb like this is clearly a full retard

Oh, joy, because I want my "smart" internet of shit enabled devcies to be a back-door to hack my home network.

Fuck that.

There's only one minor niggle:

WTF. that's the dumbest product I have ever seen save the wiper wand!

This is one of the reasons that GE stock price over the last couple of years has tanked. I bought into GE at 14 a share and sold it at 28 after I saw an advertisement about how GE was diversifying their workforce, the stock price is hovering around 10 now.

If you are too lazy for a light switch just kill yourself already.

smart lightbulb

It is certainly smarter than the idiots buying them.

2019-06-20 | Must watch: GE's smart light bulb reset process is a masterpiece... of modern techno-insanity • The Register

'You can see how that might require three cycles: on/off, on/off, on/off. ', "But you better hope you're on version 2.8 or higher because the other reset process is even worse.", "Obviously the engineers want to make sure that a light bulb isn't accidentally reset through normal use."

'No one should have to go to this much trouble to reset a fucking light bulb. '

'Most likely, the reset process will work anywhere between 5-10 seconds on and 1-4 seconds off. '
