Largest Number of Driving Test Failures
By April 1970 Mrs. Miriam Hargrave had failed her test thirty-nine
times. In the eight preceding years she had received two hundred and
twelve driving lessons at a cost of L300. She set the new record while
driving triumphantly through a set of red traffic lights in Wakefield,
Yorkshire. Disappointingly, she passed at the fortieth attempt (3 August
1970) but eight years later she showed some of her old magic when she w…

Kid2 and I are going to pitch Hallmark a sure-fire Christmas hit: Unsilent Night. It's the zombie apocalypse BUT the (chosen) people survive using their bountiful Christmas decorations - lights to electrocute, a full-sized shepherd's crook to bludgeon - to defeat the hordes of undead while surviving for years on homemade fruit cake that replenishes them body and, thanks to their mothers' immaculate love, soul.

A couple of days of just layering varnish and painting which didn't change anything visibly enough to bother with photos. But today, the windowed doors are starting to be completed. Three of them up.
This is what really makes the difference and makes it suddenly reminiscent of the Tardis.
Hopefully it'll be finished next week, they say. But they have said that before. The windowed doors have to be finished, the detailing to make the doors look panelled, handles, holes for cables, there's a bit of coving I decided to add to help carry wires and lights across the gap above the desk. More painting. Mirrors to be glued to doors.
We shall see :fingers_crossed:

After a few days with my OCuLink setup I made an observation:
I can put the machine to sleep but I can't wake it up anymore. When I try to resume it doesn't fully power on. Power LED lights up and fans start on the OCuLink dock but USB won't get initialized (I have a soundbar that reports "USB audio" whenever USB is reset) and the LED lighting of the UTM 780 XTX stays dark.

Is there such a think as a test tube brush crossed with a wire brush?
We're starting to set up outdoor Christmas lights and a bunch of the sockets are oxidized and not making good contact with the bulbs. So I need to get into the socket and scrub the contacts.
Maybe after this holiday season I'll put some deoxit or something on them.

I'm not ok. The world seems not ok. But community is important and there is still value in doing things just because. Blinky lights are fun, so last weekend I helped wire some controller boxes for an upcoming Burning Man project (maybe unscruz too?)

all Tesla Cybertrucks.
The steel cars, wrapped in black-and-white vinyl, come decked out with warning lights and flashing sirens on the roof.
They seem to be heftier, more angular versions of a traditional police car.

I used to live in a house by the freeway. When I went anywhere, I had
to be going 65 MPH by the end of my driveway.
I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights. Now it looks
like I'm the only one moving.
I was pulled over for speeding today. The officer said, "Don't you know
the speed limit is 55 miles an hour?" And I said, "Yes, but I wasn't going
to be out that long."
I put a new engine in my car, but didn…
I made a pretty terrible video of my bike all lit up on the Oak Leaf Trail last night... This is in a spot down by the river where there is no light at all. By 5pm it's pitch dark out.

Waymo says it "designed its driving software to be able to automatically navigate intersections when traffic lights are out, but sometimes [it] will ask for a confirmation from remote human monitors that they are proceeding safely[...] The numerous lights that were out resulted in a surge in such confirmation requests and delayed its vehicles clearing intersections, it said."
These vehicles aren't autonomous. This is a performance they're putting on.
Really surreal driving experience on the Frankfurter Allee today. Of course there was a lot of construction and rerouting, single lanes, delivery drivers blocking one etc. But the weirdest thing was the wandering traffic lights. Some workers where pushing the large temporary traffic lights around. It felt a bit like the bending cities in the movie "Inception"

Black Coffee from lnbits likes internet of things, but doesn't like the way it tends to work with centralised servers and spying companies running them.
But what if your coffee pot and lights and smart plugs were nostr instead?
Nobody can cut your machine off, it has it's own keys and encryption, you could even ruin your own relay to talk to it instead of using public relays.
Remote control without having to expose the home network.
You could even make it require zaps and so make a vending machine.
Demonstration by sending lightning requests to the coffee pot on stage works better than the mikes that have been feeding back this afternoon 😆
