    It was far more nuanced than that. They also wanted their own lane on 91 so they wouldn't have to deal with Boston traffic.

    I never contribute monetarily but I do contribute bug fixes, documentation fixes, spelling and grammar errors, even in languages I don't know.

    You have to put it somewhere where it will interrupt your normal thought patterns when you go shopping. It will take some time before you begin to remember but eventually it will become part of your thought pattern... ["Wallet, keys, phone, bag..."]

    good. It's not hard to use a reusable. Mine is indestructible, holds all I need, and I can tuck some reusable veggie bags in there and still stuff it in a pocket before i head in.

    I just tested with my VPN and indeed xvideos doesn't give a shit if you're in Texas.

    The A record for xvideos resolves to the Netherlands so that's probably why they don't give a shit.

    That makes absolutely no sense. No company is going to go through all the trouble of making an entirely different processor that will need all new toolchains when risc-v is free. It's a monumental undertaking. MAYBE china, but who cares? Don't buy chinese chips.

    You're right. We shouldn't use proprietary bullshit and hope the corporations do the right thing.

    Did some digging -- This story is two years old. Old repo is here:

    https://github.com/berthubert/googerteller

    There's a shit-ton of forks so I bet someone has made something more modern with the concept. I know very little C++ so I'm useless.

    I am wrong they are all just forks with no commits.

    I've been on quite a few military installations, lived on one, worked at two, and even those permanent bases didn't have a refinery on-site. I supremely doubt that there's equipment on a foreign base or forward operating base.

    Beyond TinkcerCAD

    What CAD can you guys recommend for progressing beyond TinkerCAD? I really enjoy OpenSCAD and will continue to build that skillset but sometimes I just want to much about with a mouse in 3D space. I used to really enjoy doing mockups in SketchUP when that was still a free Google project. I'm definitely not designing engines or commercial products. I'm mostly just designing small things for the 3D printer. Also, Open Source is a _must._ I'd rather struggle with a free product that could be made better than pay for a commercial product that does way more than what I need it for.

    ESPHome advanced troubleshooting

    I started mucking about with ESPHome yesterday and setup a WROOM with an AHT22 temp/humidity sensor. Running the wizard and adding the configs is easy-peasy. I started to have issues as soon as I wanted to flash. - If the AHT22 is plugged in, I cannot flash the device over USB. - I can check the serial logs once the device is flashed and then plug in the AHT22 once the device is booted and get readings, but - Once I unplug the ESP32 from the serial port and plug it into a power supply, I got nothing. No network activity at all. - Unplug the AHT22, plug into the power source, wait a few seconds, plug in the AHT22 has _seemed_ to work correctly this morning and HA is pulling data but I tried that last night a few times and it didn't work -- so unsure why it's working this morning other than strange timing when I'm plugging the thing back in. I am using the basic ```esp32dev``` firmware, which I am assuming works because it DOES work, eventually, but I'm not confident I'm using the right base but I cannot figure out which one to use.
