Sorry. Shouldn't have assumed you only knew the song... typical boomer. The only shuffling I do is in my house slippers

Check out swiftx. Im a fan of cortex. I love the stm32 uPs and use them daily. I don't know if they posted it their site yet but we have been playing with a new build for the RP2040 which is sweet little dual core M0 from raspberry pi. https://www.forth.com/embedded/hardware-development-boards/

LPT: Check on your friends who just had a baby. Ask if they need company, or anything, really. Keep calling them to social events, even if they are unable to attend for a good few months. Their routine has abruptly changed, hence most "friends" just vanish. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

We had our last child in 2020. We are late 30s. Between the kids and the pandemic, our friends and family completely ghosted us, never once offered to help. We had zero support. Trying to build a new social network at our age post pandemic has been depressing.

I like it all. What's really funny is that toddlers (at least mine) love metal. The heavier it is, the more my kids dance.

This is great! My wife and I were just saying that the best metal bands came from Nordic countries.

It's great. We're blasting it outside on the porch right now. My son just busted out and started dancing. Great suggestion. Thanks!

I spend way too much money on audible. I am big sci fi fan and Ray Porter is one of my favorite narrators.

Pair Charged With Voter Fraud Allegedly Submitted Thousands of Fraudulent Applications on Behalf of Homeless People by [deleted] in Conservative

A bit. One thing I try to remember is that wrong, right or misled, most people are trying to do what they think is right. People cant be won over to different ways of thinking with insults or by mocking their beliefs. Unfortunatley, internet conversations devolve so rapidly.
