Not long before git repos will implement Captchas for each submission.

Never understood why they let cars there. Delivery trucks, sure.

It was way too narrow for passenger cars and there’s a parallel road right next door.

The photo must be around 8 years old.

Fun fact: on the top left corner is a partial segment of the old Bay Bridge that was damaged during the Loma Prieta 1989 earthquake. They built a whole new span (the white section next to it). To get rid of the old concrete underwater pylons, they blew them all up underwater. Here’s a video of the implosion of the last two:

Phew! Egg whites would have been… challenging.

Also, yum.

What’s the liquid in the uni, ikura, and quail egg glasses? Hoping it’s not quail egg-whites, unless we’re going for Rocky-style training 💪🏽

Online dating apps sell us hope by exploiting our needs, desires and insecurities.

True for pretty much all social apps.

TSA-approved.

If I was an athlete and there were condoms with Olympic logo branding getting handed out, I would SO hoard them for souvenirs. Can you imagine?

They’re in Italy. There are farmacie all over the place. They can get store-brand ones.

Edit: Yup. Olympic Games branding. Goes in the scrapbook album. Unused, mind you.

Everybody immersed in this technology needs to listen to Meredith. 💯

2023?

First-world problems.

Get overrun by armies who do cardio and deep-squats.

Yes, but what does the cat think about all this?

Have a whole bunch of all of these laying about. For strange combinations of features, can’t beat LilyGo. But you end up having to deal with outdated drivers (i.e. LoRa, GPS, LVGL 8 vs newer 9.x).

If it’s just for a fun DIY project, the Xiao ones are fine, but if it’s something you need for civilians to use, M5Stack Core2/3, Atoms, or CardPuters are worth looking into. They also play nice with ESPHome.

They’re a bit pricier than the low-cost, commodity boards, since they have enclosures. But extra bonus that Espressif actually bought M5Stack, so it’s likely they’ll get the latest processors and still be around.

Disclosure: Have no relation with them other than happy user and using one of the Core2 variants in a project I’m currently working on.
