I think I have become more interested in getting the lowest score possible. Triangles score pretty low. Squares score better than some of my circles.

On another note, I tried to make a throwaway on `old.reddit.com`. I couldn't find a way to make an account without using an email. I had to manually type in `old.reddit.com/register` to get to a form that would let me not type in an email and even then it wasn't obvious that the email wasn't required.

Since I like to build custom electronics using JLCPCB, I went on there and looked for RISC-V chips. I found the ESP32-C3 and a dozen or so Chinese chips that seemed to only have Chinese datasheets. It seems that things are still pretty immature in RISC-V adoption. I will be getting a ESP32-C3 dev board to tinker with at least.

I am surprised automatic shifting technology doesn't exist. Wireless electronic shifters are readily available now, in addition to power meters. We have devices to shift and devices to tell us when to shift. All that is needed is to marry the two together.

I've been using the eye dropper a lot lately. It's great for making websites usable. It even works on mobile for disabling hostile ux elements such as "xyz is better with the app" nags.

Do they whitelist accounts of public officials? For instance, having the POTUS account behind an auth wall seems like a horrible practice.

I believe by "darken" they mean the ability to turn off the screen while watching a video, or more likely, listening to music.
