Pilot Zone / Amazon
« on: August 10, 2021, 10:25:40 AM »
An Amazon adventure. Back in June I ordered a Z-Wave three way switch. It was ordered because it did not need a special switch on the other end. The witch was delivered and I took it out of the box and went through the installation process. Got it installed and followed the instructions and could not get it added to my Z-Wave network. The switch did not seem to operate as the instructions detailed. I noticed the front of the switch did not look like the picture in the instructions. I contacted Eva Logik and we began a long email conversation. Eva Logik asked me to take a photo of the back of the switch for the model number. I've been bus and only yesterday did I take off the face plate and pull the switch out of the box so I could see the back and take a picture. What I discovered was the actual switch I installed that cam packaged in the Eva Logik box was a GE branded Jasco WiFi switch model MTS5407. I was able to get an install guide, download GE's app and add the switch, link the app skill in Alexa and can now control the switch.
I can only surmise that someone ordered the GE switch and could not get it to work, bought the Eva Logik switch and put the GE switch in the Eva Logik box and did a return.
I called Amazon this morning. I do not want to remove and return the switch. I was asked if I wanted some compensation and I said yes. I was offered $5 on my account. I explained all I had been through to get to this point. Placed on hold and then was offered $10, that was the last offer. Said I would accept it and then go tell everyone on social media, the phone went dead.

Spin Zone / Progressives don't have to debate......
« on: July 28, 2021, 06:43:40 AM »
I have a Progressive FB friend that posted the attached meme. I asked him to back up the assertion. To paraphrase his reply, "not my job, do your own Googling". Several of his friends chimed in with the same thing. I even posted a link to the Georgia Voting bill and asked if they could point to the specific language in that bill that backed up the intent of the meme. Same response.
Here is his last response:
So Progressives have no desire to back up their assertions any longer. They post something, it's truth.

See, here's the thing, Randy: I don't have to do this the way you think I should. I don't have to have the same goals, or intent, I don't have to jump through the hoops you or anyone else holds up. If I want to post something because it says something I agree with, I can do so and that thing can stand alone on its own merits or lack thereof. I don't have to defend it. That's unnecessary because I'm not here to argue or convince you (or anyone), or change anyone's mind. I don't care to do that, so I won't. Read it, don't read it, respond or don't, it's all up to you. Just like you get to make vast sweeping stereotyping general statements that, to my mind have no validity whatsoever - but you still get to make them. Hike your own hike. That's what I'm gonna do.

In case you are not aware the Cubans are protesting in the streets, waving American flags and wanting their freedom. At 9:25 PM EDT I have checked ABCNews, CBSNews, NBCNews, CNN and MSNBC and only NBC and CNN even mention the story and you have to look pretty hard for it.
I don't follow any Democrats on Social Media so I don't know where they stand. Republicans I follow are coming out in favor of the Cuban citizens.
Can't imagine "the squad" can like this.

Spin Zone / Independence Day
« on: July 03, 2021, 06:32:48 AM »
Wondering what everyone is doing with their extra sixteen cents they have for their Independence Day celebration tomorrow. Mine will be going in my gas tank to help make up part of the ninety-five cents difference in the cost of a gallon of gas over last year.

Pennsylvania’s highest court overturned Bill Cosby’s sex assault conviction Wednesday after finding an agreement with a previous prosecutor prevented him from being charged in the case.
Cosby has served more than two years of a three- to 10-year sentence at a state prison near Philadelphia. He had vowed to serve all 10 years rather than acknowledge any remorse over the 2004 encounter with accuser Andrea Constand.

Spin Zone / Why did we let the Russians push our press around?
« on: June 16, 2021, 09:14:36 AM »
If you've seen footage of the kick off of the Biden Putin summit you saw the Russians man handle our press and nothing was done about it.
