Really really cool!
Vysor (by Koushik Dutta aka Koush) lets you not only share and control your Android device screen from your local Chrome browser, but also remotely to others having a Chrome browser with Vysor installed. And Vysor gives you full ADB access to your Android device.
Some links to get started:
To get started:
After connecting over ADB, Vysor sideloads the Android code to share both screen and input. So besides viewing your screen, you can then control it.
Of course your mouse works, including scrolling. And the keyboard for entering text.
There are also some special keys:

It took me a while to find the original illustration (especially as it was copied so often in low quality), but below it is.
Martin Wienold made a great joke based on it last year:
There are only two hard problems
- naming things
- cache invalidation
- off-by-one errors

Because http://fritz.box points to my Fritz!BOX router, it cannot be used to get to my Fritz!WLAN Repeater. I just learned about the http://169.254.1.1 trick does.
Which saves me from remembering the repeater IP-address or name.

A while ago, I got this error:
Accessing the Software Management Failed System management is locked by the application with pid 17730 (/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base). Close this application before trying again. Would you like to abort or try again? [Retry] [Abort]
What happened is that a terminal session that had YaST open got disconnected (don’t you love WiFi) while checking for updates.
I tried to re-login and re-check for updates and got this error.
Looking for process 17730 indeed revealed it was YaST:
snap:~ # ps 17730 PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 17730 pts/0 Sl+ 0:11 /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base online_update ncurses
A simple kill would get rid of that process:
sudo kill 17730

When one of my DevOps friends asks: Was ist Cloud?.
Kristian Köhntopp even published it as a SlideShare deck with transcript: Was ist Cloud?.
There is even a video: Froscon “Was ist Cloud?” – Video.
Thanks a million, Kris, this is very much worth reading for anybody doing Ops, Dev or DevOps.

Bullit ceiling fan with light.
We have two “Bullit” ceiling fans with built-in dimmable lights. Both of them started to malfunction after about 10 years of usage, about a year apart.
They are really nice, both in looks and build quality (heavy duty electric motor, cast aluminium block, screws nicely hidden away).
So this weekend, I took the canopy apart and found out that the receiver device that processes the infra-red signal has broken: it does not pass on the incoming current to either the light or the fan engine.
That receiver part looks like this (handheld is on the right):
Handheld infra-red transmitter (required 9-volt battery).
Bullit ceiling fan/light infra red receiver.
I came across a Westinghouse GS–26-78095-WH08 model. The image is below
Is that a universal replacement for many ceiling fan/light devices?

This was a search for ISDN S0 bus: https://www.google.com/search?q=ISDN+S0+bus
Google thinks it is in German, but it is in English: even the html tag indicates it is in English:
<!doctype html><html itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/SearchResultsPage" lang="en"><head><meta content="/images/google_favicon_128.png" itemprop="image"><meta content="origin" id="mref" name="referrer">
I cannot change the page so nothing I can use from the suggestions in html – Why does Chrome incorrectly determine page is in a different language and offer to translate? – Stack Overflow.
Anybody knows what can I do to prevent this wrong guess?
Can anyone from +GoogleTranslate please step in?

I like this: the plug-up affordable FIDO U2F Security Key by HAPPLINK.
You could already use it for Google 2nd factor authentication (2FA) through Chrome. You can do this from your own applications for instance through the U2F reference implementation.
Now you can also as 2FA to DropBox, also through Chrome. And it is easy with the plug-up key (Thanks Kristian):
Uuuund… umgestellt. Das war ja einfach.

Es gibt andere Fido Token, die können mehr. Ich nehme dieses, das kostet fast nix und man kann die kaufen und verteilen wie Konfetti.
