I don't read the article as an attack on building high performing bikes.

Just about manufacturers giving a better idea of what a bicycle or wheel set can stand up to by including some maximum supported weight information that is not just available in a manual (which most people don't see until post-sale)

We can pretty easily infer the weight of an overall build down to how much the spokes weigh before buying... why can't we be given more information about what a rim or frame can stand up to with regards to weight?

Old school YouTubers started and sold Maker Studios. I think ShayCarl, Lisa Nova and Kassam G are some that were part of that.

Fuck man, I will hug me some strangers if they are offering. Who doesn’t love some strange?

He was retweeting Andy Ngo and Proud boys.

We don't know what is said behind closed doors but publicly (until around 1/6/2020) Lunduke's twitter was relatively unhinged (pretty much what you would expect from a far right winger)

Sucks because I don't read the shit he writes or mess with the projects he puts out these days.

WLED its built to work with ESP8266 / ESP32 So I recommend just getting an ESP8266; its the older and cheaper of the two at $15 for 5 (clone)

I was asking about RGB strip because using WLED effectively means you will be using one of some sort. I don't think I would build it the same way but if I wanted to solve the problem with LED Strips I would get this

This strip is nice because it has cutlines after every LED (some strips have the cut lines at every 3) If you are comfortable soldering you can cut the LEDs apart and use wire to connect them together to get things from house to house

That could be an awesome solution to OPs biggest challenge

I use WLED a lot with strip lights and things and it works great

If you do WLED you should have no need for a bread board. Just get an ESP8266 with male headers and a nice(ish) 12V power supply that can run your strip. From Arduino to LED strip you only need to connect the data pin and ensure 12V PSU ground and 5V PSU ground are connected.

I am leaving the hiding of wires out because I have no clue.

I am curious as to what strip you are planning to use as you will need to (at least from my perspective) hack it apart and extend it with wires to get it nice.

(I advocate for RGB LEDs even though you only need warm white; the stupid stuff you can do with RGB on top of it having warm white is worth it)

I've been wanting to build a similar thing to take on trails.

Please share your progress!

Google does a lot of standards breaking things.

Like allowing a link on Google Apps Marketplace to open a new window (like popup) with POST instead of GET. (This pretty much ensures that buying an app will fail for browsers that follow the spec)

Working to love the games… but all of N64!! Who has three arms?!

All kidding aside this year I’ve made an effort with N64 and am finding the gems and that a lot of games are just nicer compared to PlayStation where file size limitations don’t burn the system
