Did you see the article claiming Hunter Biden's laptop wasn't really Hunter Biden's laptop, but rather had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation"? If stories like this, run by fake news sites such as NPR or NYT, popped up in your social media feed about the 2020 U.S. presidential election, they probably came from a tiny group of people with a massive impact.

For your embedded cistercian projects: https://www.tindie.com/products/savageelectronics/rgb-cister...
(I'm not the maker, I just noticed these last year on Tindie and picked up a couple.)

Sketchup has a Ruby API. This book is good if you can find a copy:

> get enough people vaccinated that community spread stops being a thing
The problem with this plan is that vaccinated people still catch and spread the virus. The available vaccines do not create "herd immunity" in the traditional sense.
I think the best argument for getting a vaccine now is you will be much less likely to get hospitalized (and/or die) if you catch COVID after being vaccinated. But that argument may not apply to people who already caught it, recovered and now have some natural immunity.

Interesting that this is happening at the same moment Glenn Greenwald is promoting (Canada based) Rumble as a free-speech alternative to Youtube.

I agree with you. Cargo cult is when physical goods are delivered by some high-tech society to a lower-tech one (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult).
Buying stuff from Amazon is more like cargo cult than Clubhouse is.

if you want to be extra confused, look at the HalloWing:
https://www.adafruit.com/product/3900 https://www.adafruit.com/product/4300
it's a feather mainboard, but with the 'wing' nomenclature.

... also check out the TinyS2, which has the form factor of the TinyPico, but it has the ESP32-S2 SOC

I buy from all of those places, but when they are sold out I also check digikey (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/raspberry-pi/SC09...) and canakit (https://www.canakit.com/raspberry-pi-pico.html). They both have it now. Digikey says "2 in stock" but I think this really means "2 per customer" because there is another view I found where it looks like they have 14000+ in stock (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/evaluation-boards...)

yes! I found these on sale at digikey. Search for "arduino nano rp2040". They cost about $28.
