agreed, nephew got his pebble steel replaced no questions for serious screen issues. I have minor screen issues occasionally though have had mine for a couple of years. Might try for a replacement. Might they send me a fitbit now instead..?

even simpler open your browser console and just start typing, I've found new ideas by letting the autocomplete there guide me

I use Lightwaverf in the UK, replacing the switches with their dimmers. They do have limitations (can't query the state and mostly doesn't work with led bulbs) but the form factor is good.

they're ramping up the availability at the moment, adafruit has them I think http://whereismypizero.com/ - some places only have them as part of a kit admittedly, but I managed to buy one on its own. I'm confident

after the initial batch all manufacturing resource was supposedly moved to the pi 3 so they're still tricky to come by. I'm sure they'll be back though. There's an interview in https://www.raspberrypi.org&#x2F

I have exactly the same! I understood it to be down to network issues, maybe that'll be solved with on board wifi?

previously you'd have had a wifi dongle in one slot, plus then maybe mouse and keyboard... likely to be fine with the same power supply for the same use cases as before. Don't try and run your christmas tree off it.

I thought I had similar, we use Junos Pulse and it rewrites your /etc/hosts file. I think it takes a backup at some point and rebuilds the file from that when it needs to. This means some local changes just disappear. Nothing sini

I don't think any "physical web" scanners do right now unfortunately, for example https://github.com/dermike/physical-web-scan (or search for mobile apps called "physical web"). This completely

I did have that originally, but <card /> worked in my browser so i ran with it... I'm sure card[suit=$] with a unicode character is not super widely supported css anyway...

agreed, I looked around the area I live in Kent and it looks like people buying a house "tax efficiently" ahem, via companies in the Channel islands, rather than oligarchs buying up swathes of the town.
