People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

There's the Sonoff ZBMINIR2 device. You install it between a physical switch and the wiring, and then tuck it into the electrical box. It has three different modes:

  1. As a relay, so that you can control the light either with the physical switch or by ZigBee. Works just like normal when the server is down.
  2. Detached mode, so toggling the physical switch sends a ZigBee message to trigger an action on the server, and the server controls the light.
  3. Like 2, but the light socket is always powered so it supports a smart bulb.

I have a couple, and they're great. They just don't support dimming.
