Today's routing task: Fitting 176 pins of shit in a 100 pin package. Because of course the 100 pin package version is out of stock till sometime in 2027, but the 176 pin version is the exact same die but with bond-out of the additional pins we don't use on the 100 pin variant. Now to make it fit!

Thankfully we may see a hard swing back towards buttons as it's been proven to be statistically safer than touch screens. European legislation has been the prime mover in this area and it's hard for international automotive to build vehicles for both markets that can accomodate both styles.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Facebook really doesn't want you to see the new documentary exposing Elon Musk Neither do TikTok or Google or the eX social media site. Since they won't accept paid advertising, let's do some free advertising. Go see Musk in theaters October 9 www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

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.

Incorrectly accusing an artist of using genAI does more damage to a community of creatives than an artist (or anyone else) actually using genAI. As the tech continues to improve, we’ll lose more artists to burnout caused by incorrect accusations than to loss of income from reduced patronage. Stop.

You know what’s worse than generative AI? People who insist they can spot generative AI. You can’t. Not anymore. The tells aren’t always there at this stage in the technology’s development. I hate genAI too, but every time you incorrectly accuse an artist of posting it you destroy their motivation
