In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks ElonOwesYou100Dollars.com

I bet chatGDP would make an amazing spell checker. If it can predict what I’ll say next it can probably eliminate stupid autocorrect problems

⚠️🌪️TORNADO DRILL🌪️⚠️ Retweet! Let's see what kind of reach we achieve! In the event of a tornado, sharing this kind of information could be life saving. Also think about what you would do if this were a real tornado warning. ⚠️🌪️TORNADO DRILL🌪️⚠️ @IowaHSEMD #IowaSWAW #iawx

Think stepper motors will overheat or cause issues if covered in a 3d printed case?

Found a lazy way to get KiCad footprints for LCSC parts: If the part has an EasyEDA footprint (many do), click "EasyEDA Model", then "Free Trial" to open a new project with that part, export the project as JSON, and use @UriShaked's wokwi.com/tools/easyeda2kica… to export it to KiCad!
FPC connector on LCSC with the EasyEDA model dialog open, cursor on "Free Trial" button

I'm really amazed with the dev experience on the #CH32V003 and #CH32V307 I'm currently playing around with Learning based on (complex) examples works much better for my brain compared to studying pages upon pages of app notes Thx @patrick_riscv for simply publishing on GitHub too

I’m looking for who wrote the Lehigh virus in 1987. I’ve talked to two people closest to the individual that could have written it, no one is dropping names. The CFAA statute of limitations has passed. Anyone want to come clean? #vx #malware #virus #infosec

That is a thing of beauty! Care to share what all is going on here? I recognize GPS, RTC, Wifi, I'm guessing the green PCB in the USB is BLE. What else?

Wardriving rigs are so 2022. Lightweight, general purpose wireless capture and research platforms are for 2023.
