Very fair. Someone on my team wrote an app that assembles outfits based on the clothes in his closet (he's color blind but also acknowledges he's from Beaumont TX and therefore has no style)

I'm doing my best not to give him a bunch of empathy, but to be honest he just seems like a guy that can't dress (photo below is equally bad). I can't explain the bedhead though; it definitely make him look slovenly. And the chest hair ain't helping.

This serves as advertisement for Alex Gibney’s documentary, Musk, opening October 9. Pass it on.

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

Yep -- Heltec LoRa (v3, though v4 has better power management) should be enough to get you started. I don't know what mesh coverage is like where you reside, so you might be doing home experimenting until the infrastructure blossoms.

Israel troll farms are hard at work -- always be suspicious of folks that won't let you comment or repost. BTW I'm confused why Brad Lander would proactively wander over to a group of pro-Palestine protesters at a protest against a right-wing Hindu nationalist.
