horror story idea: the untitled goose is loose on the ISS
I'd be a lot more interested in smartwatches if they were like this, the Seiko UC-2000
It was released in 1984 and was a digital watch with memo function that could be put in a dock to turn it into a reasonably well-featured microcomputer
Imagine being able to wear your PC on your wrist and just plop it into a dock when you wanted more functionality, that'd be cool
Interesting thing from MeisterSinger, the Astroscope
Really neat way of showing the day on it, best explained by monochrome here https://monochrome-watches.com/2020-meistersinger-astroscope-review-price/

Whoever came up with the phrase "Never look a gift horse in the mouth" is obviously unfamiliar with the Trojan War
H. P. Lovecraft was so ridiculously racist he reportedly had a panic attack when he learnt that one of his great grandparents was Welsh

Two limited editions, the 104 St Sa A B E and the 158
104 St Sa A B E is a 104 with blue dial and bezel, arabic numerals, and ivory lume, limited to 1,000 pieces
The 158 is a lot more interesting though, heavily inspired by the old 155 Bw from the 80's, limited to 500 pieces

"average person launches 3 EC2 instances a year" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person launches 0 instances per year. Computers Georg, who lives in cave & launches over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

new video from me, ec and bad people in thumbnail
hey I did a new video
it's called Defeat & Despair and it's about that weird issue you get when you want to do activism but are too busy being crushed by the overwhelming shittiness of the world itself
and how to make that not happen
@cypnk this might be of interest if you haven't seen it yet

@troubleMoney it's an idea super worth revisiting. The biggest drawbacks of this thing were that gas motors smell, leak, etc and a small moped is pretty heavy to lift out of the trunk.
A hybrid or electric car could integrate a modern take with lithium batteries at under 50 lbs. and can be charged by integrated connector so when you plug in your car your bike charges too. European cities don't accommodate cars well, nor does NYC so the market exists
I'm informed there's some sort of #mastomonday thingy
welcome new people! any questions about the fediverse you might have, feel free to chuck them my way
