@intheseheels I love Craigavon. Then again, I grew up there so I’m biased. It’s a strange place; can seem like it has no soul, but it’s merely hidden.

@schwa how long until we see those faces pulled on videos titled “Genocide in Gaza?!”

@nivrig I just see a Cybertruck backed through a wall

@acf yeah, I struggle with the concept of “profit” a lot of the time. For me, a company should be trying to make enough money to pay its workers a good wage, to pay the owners a good wage, and to generate enough extra money to reinvest in growing the company. More is greed.

Don’t start me on Apple. It’s one of my huge personal conflicts!

@acf I looked up the company on Companies House and saw that it was created in May 2020. Imagine thinking “I’m going to create a new company just to rake in the cash while people are dying and the health care workers caring for them are being underpaid and worked to the bone”. I can sort of understand an existing company focusing on PPE, but starting a new one?

I don't care if you find a tunnel that goes from a Gazan hospital all the way to Tel Aviv. There is never justification for murdering civilians and destroying the lives of those people you don't manage to murder.

@bigzaphod Cool, thanks. I can see the same kit on UK Amazon, so I could buy it and get an extra breadboard and some prototyping components.

Though maybe what I should be buying is a bench power supply, as I need 12Vpp for some of what I'm doing!

@bigzaphod nice video. I loved your little Elegoo power module; would you mind if I asked what it was (model number, or whatever)? It would be nice than the cobbled together power supplies I’ve been using.

The new kick drum module from Shakmat looks awesome. Can’t wait to get my hands on it! Battering Ram: youtu.be/mS8li9ISCSE

@antonyjohnston I feel like we need social protections enforced by government that demands something like full pay for a year when being made redundant by a profitable company. Or even a company with substantial revenues.

@ivan3bx I think I can activate my Apple Watch with that thumbnail picture!

@lexfri I think the technical term is “innocent”

@atpfm please let me be the nth listener to suggest the name Apple Juice for their replaceable battery product.

@pcalc Do you have the ability to show metric prefixes like nano, pico, etc, and to switch between them?

The Befaco Hexmix VCA was a fairly involved build. I reckon there were 140 resistors, about 60 capacitors, 12 jacks and 18 pots. Ran out of time to do calibration and playing with it, but initial test showed I have a dodgy input jack on one channel. Gonna have to remedy that and then test the CV inputs as well.

@tomo being an Irish person who lives in Northern Ireland, I’m pretty sensitive to it. Sorry if I was a jerk!

@tomo given that your entire rendering is of natural geographical features, it is weird to include a political border in what is very much a whole island.

@ianRobinson my gateway was a Trentemøller remix of We Share Our Mothers Health. It was a deep dive after that!
