Some time ago I started making faceplate PCBs for @chipperdoodles Anwaar platform. It is such a great idea focusing on the faceplates and reusing all the battery/controller/charging part. Getting creative and sharing your work is so easy and accessible. Can't wait until his @crowdsupply campaign starts and we hopefully see and share our Anwaar faceplate PCBs at all the cons (link in the thread).
This one has 30 charlieplexed 0402 LEDs forming a caffeine molecule.

Keep cleaning surfaces. It's working very well for you.

Biobot has removed its covid wastewater dashboard and will no longer show covid wastewater data for the US.

~3 weeks after CDC stopped covid hospitalization data.

If you don’t stand up for what’s right, what’s the real point of you.

Huge piles of #PFAS #foreverchemicals foam in Battle Creek, about a mile south of the #3m main research lab, where these were developed as a fire fighting foam. The groundwater here is contaminated from a dump site about 8 miles north, and probably from the laboratories.

I think it is really important we speak out against this bill as it could be copy-catted in other states, and its just messed up, so I started an email campaign: TIME-SENSITIVE!: Join the email campaign to stop HB 237 from passing in NC House of Representatives! If passed, this bill will make it illegal to wear a mask in public even for medical reasons, more info at https://the-maskers-comic.yolasite.com/stophb237 We need to send these emails out ASAP!

When you consider that in 2023, Chinese factories put out over 80% of solar modules & battery cells, 65% of wind nacelles, & 56% of electrolyzers, the US & EU have some catching up to do if they're serious about #cleanenergy manufacturing. https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/clean-energy-manufacturing/chart-global-clean-energy-manufacturing-by-the-numbers

Any recommendations for books with just beautiful pictures of gardens? Wilder the better? I'm looking for inspiration 🤩 Pacific Northwest specific would be amazing but open to whatever.

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Children With #LongCOVID: A Case-controlled Study

https://t.ly/Wb1ps

"Children with #LC have a reduced VO2 peak […], abnormal cardiovascular efficiency (VO2/HR% pred), pathological VE/VCO slope […], and abnormally reduced slope of VO2 work" "48% of the LC patients had a suspicious phenotype for pulmonary hypertension."

CDC puts early end to free COVID vaccines for uninsured | The Hill

Hope you're going to like the number of Fall/Winter Covid outbreaks, starting with those who can't afford the full costs and spreading to those who don't vaccinate b/c reasons who could, and then to the rest of us. Here's hoping we don't get a nastier variant....

I read the whole article and it is a chilling account of a visit to a gathering of the scum of the earth. They have a lot of money and they're coming for ALL of us. As many have pointed out, Palestine is a testing ground which these people relish with glee.

I'm slowly realising that I probably have some mild #LongCovid

Since having covid (now had it twice since 2022): iron deficiencies, breathing problems, constant asthma, and now a sudden allergy to some foods apparently.

My partner and I have been careful throughout the pandemic but clearly not careful enough at times (twice each) since "opening up".

And though it could be far far worse, I feel pretty violated right now TBH.

@coronavirus
@longcovid

Still can't get over the fact that lawmakers in NC decided that wearing a mask was a crime.

The worst thing is that they are having a hard time justifying it, and no one who is not crazy is like oh what a great idea.

If I do not talk about where I live it is because this place has nothing great for it, and the rare people that are somehow decent here do not come from here.

Yes, I am outraged that despite having allergies that require me to wear a mask I do not have the freedom to look after myself.

#maskup

Friends, I have avoided Covid until last week. It's likely, since I don't get out too much, that I picked it up in the ophthalmologist's office. I lowered my guard and they weren't on guard to begin with. I am furious.

#covid #maskup

The state I live in (South of the US) is pushing a law to ban the mask in public for "health reasons".

This spring I have been so miserable because of the allergies that by necessity I decided to wear a #mask outside again despite taking strong medicine that won't allow me to be safe outside.

There is also a deadly pandemic going on but who cares I guess.

If I wear a mask that is to protect my health and also others.

I have no name to describe how messed up this is.
