Damage ContrLOLz 2: LOL Harder

maybe this is genius viral marketing. because now i kind of want to buy one of these bulbs just so i can show someone how to reset it

lol I thought the video was just repeating the procedure over and over so that the user would remember it.

This sounds like a pretty cool YA dystopia - have you read it?

1) they were worried about a customer accidentally resetting the light, so they added more steps to make it less likely. e.g., if there were only 3 steps, then someone might accidentally reset their by turning a light on, turning it off 2 seconds later, then turning it back on 8 seconds later. so they added another step to make that more unlikely. with each additional step, a deeply paranoid project manager was still not convinced that the possibility of accidental reset was low enough. so they kept adding and adding. things got out of control.

You make it sound like the project manager was watching some old episode of the Bob Newhart Show where Emily's all "Goodnight, Bob," and he's all "Goodnight", turns off the light and realizes something. Turns on the light and says, "Em, but you said the garbage man –" and back and forth even though the show was set in the 1970s before they had this goddm fucking bullshit.

I mean, just think of the consequences if the light were accidentally reset. My God.

once you reset a smart bulb there's no going back to life you had

The children of tomorrow will snicker when we try to explain that we used to merely flip a switch to turn on a light, and that we certainly never needed to call in a FEMA task force to change a light bulb in the event that one blew out.

xp you can go back for eight seconds but then it's off to your new life for two seconds then back for eight seconds then off to your new life then

We're at DEFCON 1, people. Start the reset, and may God have mercy on us all.

Eight seconds...two seconds. Eight seconds...two seconds. Eight seconds...three seconds, oh god no are those Cenobites oh god help me help meeeeee

We have... such sights to show you... for eight seconds... followed by two seconds of torture...

i think my favorite part of the video is how the demo actor hightails it out of the camera frame as soon as their role in the debacle is over

'and finally, step 523: wait 8 seconds and then turn the light back on. 1...2...3...*sounds of coat being put on*...4...5...*quickly receding footstep noises*...6....7....8 *door slams*

wait...that would mean they forgot to hit the light the last time because they were already out the door

well shit, gotta start the reset process over

you need a buddy and a pound each of red beets and fresh asparagus to factory reset your GE smart toilet

This clearly should've been a HowToBasic video.

to emil.y & bizarro: yes, House of Stairs has stuck with me for ages. Not to spoil the ending but it’s basically a hybrid of Rock Band and the video we’re all discussing here

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Batman movies and then asked it to write a Batman movie of its own. Here is the first page. pic.twitter.com/xrgvgAyv1L
