That's definitely not what came to mind when I read "classic Japanese cars", my mind went to stuff like the Toyota AE86 and the Miata. And from there, to the likes of the Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Subaru Impreza, Nissan Skyline, all those cars I drooled over when I used to play Gran Turismo as a kid (and still drool over, tbh).

A classic Japanese car? Like those nimble little things that drift down crazy steep mountains and stuff?

Where I work there is a data retention policy, and emails and other forms of communication (internal emails and slack, but even customer calls, etc) are deleted after a set amount of time, which varies depending on the rationale for storing that data.

There's many reasons to do this - limit disclosure issues in case of litigation, reduce storage costs, comply with PII rules around the world, etc. The guys in Legal have us file these loong ass forms about all this, including where the data is kept, security measures, etc etc etc.

I'm shocked this isn't common practice everywhere.

Why do you ask this as if it's not a thing?

Look up Santiago Bernabéu or Camp Nou, two of the largest stadiums in Europe, and you find no over ground parking lots. Same applies to most stadiums, with many actually being very well articulated with mass transit, to the point that it's much quicker to just take the subway/train/bus on match day than to be stuck in traffic for hours.

Hum. I think there should be a fictional pair of animals behind the zebras saying "damn" instead.

True, but it's less than a 10% difference. There's a very big chance the recipe will work out either way

Mr fancy pants here with full euro coins.

I treasure my red plastic €0.50 coin replica more than my life.

Tripping through time, love it

Why the down votes? Bro asking a question and being legit curious, don't be hating on someone that's looking to challenge what they know just because it's trivial to you.

I disagree, with a passion.

It is soooo cluttered, so much useless redundant tags everywhere. Just give JSON or YAML or anything really but XML...

But to each their own i guess.

There's a science article that investigated why the Brits discuss the weather? I'm now mildly curious to know their methodology and conclusions...

I always knew that THIS is how kidney beans looked, I've been lied to my whole life.

 

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to control a "dumb" led light strip segment with an ESP-01S. This is fairly low current, the strip will pull 150mA-200mA max (depends on... artistic? needs).

I have two NPN transistors (2N2222), one to control the 12V supply to the white "channel" and the other the red+blue (don't need the green).

I had to pull-down the gates as I had some flickering, and it works perfectly if I manually connect the GPIOs after the ESP-01S boots.

The ESP will boot if I have the RX pin (GPIO03) pulled down on boot, but not if I pull down any of the others.

I'm not smart enough to come up with a way to have that extra pin I need to be high only during boot, while the gate it's attached to needs to be pulled down...

Any thought, other than getting something with more IO pins?
