So I took the can off - it turns out to be easy; and got GPIO0 down to zero using a sharp scalpel wired to ground; worked great! Back to having the original image.

In 1991 the Fly’s Eye detector,
which monitored the sky for the glow caused by energetic particles slamming into our atmosphere,
detected a flash so huge it defied belief:
the cosmic ray that sparked it had an energy of 320 quintillion eV,
or 320 billion GeV.
That’s millions of times the kinetic energy of protons we can spin up in our most powerful particle accelerators.
It’s so energetic, in fact, that it actually has a decent macroscopic equivalent:

ESP32-rust playing today managed to get usb-hid working enough to be able to drive all the LEDs from Linux; usbd-hid on the Rust end, and /dev/hidraw1 on the Linux end; both are easy enough - although having to use hidraw is not pretty at all.
usbd-hid on the rust/esp side is easy enough, except for the side quest of it vastly increasing the debug build size so it was too big for the flash, and then I had to turn the debugging down.

Kenneth Payne at King’s College London set three leading large language models – GPT-5.2, Claude Sonnet 4 and Gemini 3 Flash – against each other in simulated war games. The scenarios involved intense international standoffs, including border disputes, competition for scarce resources and existential threats to regime survival

Until the power company decides to throw a fit and interrupts the power to the house every few seconds for a while and half the lights in the flat determine this is a signal they should flash while demanding a network paring and password.
And now everything has a new IP address and the lights are enough to give vulnerable people fits.
