In Romania, To encourage exercise & wellness riders can travel for free on local bus by doing 20 squats. A device counts the squats and then issues a free ticket.

What do you think of this idea? Are you Squatting? 😂

In 1943, Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann accidentally absorbed a tiny amount of LSD through his fingertips and spent the afternoon mildly hallucinating at his desk. Three days later he accidentally took 10 times than the standard recreational dose.

He drank what he believed was a cautiously small dose, and unknowingly took ten times a modern recreational amount with no frame of reference whatsoever.

At precisely 4:20pm on April 19, Hofmann dissolved 250 micrograms in water and drank it.

By 5:00pm his lab journal entries were deteriorating. Dizziness. Anxiety. Visual disturbance. Writing became impossible.

He asked his assistant to take him home. Wartime Basel had banned private cars, so the only option was a bicycle.

He spent the ride convinced his neighbour was a witch and that he had gone permanently insane. April 19 is now celebrated annually as Bicycle Day.

Hofmann later discovered that 20 to 30 micrograms were sufficient for noticeable effects. He had taken more than twelve times that amount.

He lived to 102, took small doses for the rest of his life, and called LSD his "problem child." He never regretted discovering it.

Billy Joel never sells tickets to the front rows of his concerts. Aside from wanting to beat the scalpers, he got tired of all the bored, rich people staring up at him.

So now, he sends his road crew out to bring down the fans from the worst seats so there’ll be “people in the front row that are really happy to be there, real fans.”

@SynthPotato This was obvious a year ago! Literally, gaming is an expensive hobby! It is not something you can just try with older generation systems. Maybe it is for the better! The gaming industry produces low quality products.

A Japanese manga artist lost his entire Google account forever after he uploaded private files from an old comic he drew to Google Drive.

Google’s AI checked the files and flagged them as not allowed. He asked Google to review it again, but they rejected his appeal and banned the account immediately.

He can no longer access years of his private drawings and lost access to many websites and services that used his Google login.

The artist said this is very embarrassing and causes him a lot of trouble. He warned that it might not happen to people who always follow every rule, but others should be careful.

So Google is scanning files that people upload to its cloud storage even if they are supposed to be private. I wonder how long they have been doing this.

Simple FM transmitter built using a 2N3904 transistor, LC tank circuit & BB105 varactor tuning. A great example of how oscillation, resonance, and RF amplification work together. Small circuit, powerful electronics concepts.

What component here acts as the heart of oscillation?
