I was just planning an ESP32 project with an advanced second stage, which I referred to as the "with blackjack and hookers" feature set. I realized now that I'm unlikely to need to develop that. My project plan now refers to having "hookers in escrow."

I do love it when a telecom exceeds expectations. Shout out to rural TN provider United.net (Seemingly not on bsky; they're over on the Nazi place. :-( ) This is local copper. I get "only" 1300 mbps wifi w/ wind at my back. (P.S. disconnecting service at 8am on the day of upgrade is NOT cool!)

Sharing from Android, but "http://share.Google" links make you mad? 1. Launch the Google app. 2. Punch your own face. 3. Hammer Other settings 4. Turn off Shorten Links, as below. 5. Be mad at Google. Their own goo.gl Link shortener EOL is next month. So NOW they insert themselves in my links?
