For what it's worth, I've been following your project here and on Instagram for a year or two, keeping an eye out for the day there is local API support. I haven't bothered to even request it until now, since I see at least one person request it in what feels like every thread. Inkplate seems to be the only thing close to competition right now.

How are you measuring those levels? I haven't come across a great sensor for CO2 that isn't expensive and needs weekly calibration.

Maybe in apartments, but in recently built single family homes throughout the south, a gas furnace is very common. I haven't known anyone that has anything else in the several southern states I have lived in, other than those people who tried to get away with heat pumps. Electric heating is significantly more expensive than gas.

Yes, they reduced the price to $99 in the US back in 2012.

I would like to know how the new report compares to the old one.
Also of note, the price has gone up from $99 (as of earlier this week) to $199.
edit: This NYTimes article has more details: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/21/business/23andme-will-resu...
Now, after nearly two years, 23andMe is announcing on Wednesday that it will begin providing customers with health information again, though much less than before and with F.D.A. approval.
The new health-related information 23andMe will provide is called carrier status. That relates to whether people have genetic mutations that could lead to a disease in their offspring, presuming the other parent has a mutation in the same gene and the child inherits both mutated genes. There will be information on 36 diseases, including cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia and Tay-Sachs.

I have been (unscientifically) tracking the prices of consumer level SSDs that are on sale for a few years now, there isn't any massive drop: http://media.mmo-champion.com/images/news/2015/may/ssdgraph....

This only appears to be working for me (Windows) if the file has been opened once via the Media -> Open File menu. Opening a file by double clicking means that it doesn't appear, unless it has already been opened once with the menu.

Charter's lowest tier has been 30 or 60 down (depending on your market) for a long time now. Were you on some old plan or something?

It isn't really Forbes, just a guy with a blog that happens to be on their site.

I'm not sure where they got the idea that it has 4GB of RAM or an Atom CPU. The press release (http://www.linksys.com/en-us/press/releases/2014-01-06_Links...) says it has 256MB of RAM, and every other site says the CPU is ARM based.

A decent AC router is still around ~$150-200, so prices will fall as AC becomes more popular. That being said, there is no way to justify spending an extra ~$100-150 on this over various other models for most people.

Sadly serverbear is abysmally slow every time I go to use it. It would be a great tool otherwise.
