I have found an issue with that hub where:
1) It doesn't fully power off, so USB devices may stay half powered on. I have an issue like this an SSD where it would power on and off continuously because it wasn't getting enough power (because the hub was disconnected from my computer), but it got enough power from the power supply to cycle.
2) The USB 3.0 is split between the ports. Granted USB 3.0 technically requires 5Gbps per channel and Thunderbolt only has 10Gbps each way.
Anyways, otherwise it's great hub. I can't buy the Thunderbolt display in China, so this is the next best thing paired with an Apple Cinema Display.

This Sigma 15mm fisheye is great. Nice and sharp, focuses fairly quickly. Has a lens hood type of attachment that screws on to let you take circular fisheye pictures like this, or you can take it off and take a regular fisheye picture. The only negative is the autofocus motor is loud. Not that it really matters, I guess..
UPDATE: For anyone wondering my settings: f/3.5, ISO 12,800, 1/160th, 15mm, Canon EOS 1DX.

I got some Tazo Passion Fruit tea....I added some ice and Splenda and it came out delicious! It tastes exactly like the one Starbucks makes for a fraction of the cost
My wife buys this too. Try it with lemonade instead if water. It's awesome
Got the wifi OBDII unit and started setting up dash command. Pretty cool app and there is a pre made skin for almost any system you want to monitor.
Some pics of different skins and tabs:
Disregard avg fuel mileage, I was playing and reset by accident.

Bought this one from amazon, no setup required, cheap, and works fine.

Oo that's a good idea! I'll grab some lemonade and try it...I'll be able to skip on the splenda, thanks!
How do you like it? Thinking of getting one for the living room and maybe one for the bedroom
Let us know how it turns out. I've been itching for that one but waiting to see what Apple will do this year or next year for its AEBS. I'm also waiting for the price to go down on that Linksys router.
what airport extreme are you running? I have the newest AC one and all my Apple stuff was updated since 2013 and everything on my network is Apple except my PS4, Brother printer and Samsung LED TV. I don't see the big whoop about the AC AEBS. Its over priced at 200 bucks. I got one used on ebay for 120 with a new Airport Express which I sold for 60 bucks
. Was super easy to set up and the app is cool but again. I got a great deal on it but I am not sure it is any better than the comcast modem/router that I was renting before this.The range isn't anything super special. My house is 1,500 square feet in about 1/3 a acre. Doesn't really get good signal in the basement and outside is spotty as well.
Had a linksys that was like 100 bucks before this and was basically the same thing when I lived with roommates. It does not drop the signal like the Linksys did and is a bit faster but I think that is because I changed internet service and now just live with my fiancé and not 4 dudes downloading porn/playing xbox live/netflix/bit torrent at the same time.
These two guys, from thinkgeek.com. They will go well with my Portal turret statue I already have.
Does she like soccer? I got my fiancé a Korea Red devils uniform and t-shirt to get ready for the WC. She isn't a huge soccer fan but likes the jersey. I said the wedding still on unless by some insane accordance Colombia and Korea meet up in knockout rounds and they some how beat us. Then she going to have to find a new place to stay.

I had a "be the reds" shirt and bandanna in 2002 when I was living in Korea during the 2002 world cup. Which was in Korea and Japan that year. I think I still have them around, but I am probably about 30 pounds heavier, so it won't look that good on this fat guy.
