RIP Mindstorms, the coolest thing Lego ever made (​) https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/lego-to-discontinue-mindstorms-robot-line-after-a-24-year-run

so, as I have said, I'm still in dire need of money. I have to somehow come up with 700 USD by tomorrow.

I'm still long ways to go from the goal but honestly, any amount anyone could spare would be of great help. Ofc, any boosts would also greatly help me too!

please, i'm begging y'all any support you can afford would be greatly appreciated. >.<

@confusedcharlot I was mostly in it for the watching and didn't plan well enough to have my better cameras charged, but I did end up successfully pointing my smartphone camera through my telescope to get a few decent shots!

Here are a few more or less at random, I might put together an animation or something later, we'll see!

@confusedcharlot Portland was socked in with clouds, so I drove out to the other side of the mountains to get out from under them.

Bonus shots: a cloud passing in front of the half-eclipsed moon, the mostly-visible moon reflecting in the river, and a shot of sunset at the replica Stonehenge where I set up 🙂

if we assume from now on that google can't source good info, it may be time to move to a "have a collection of reputable sites and use their internal search, or use site:domain"

#COVID killed roughly 1.9‰ of the global population over the last two years and left lots more still suffering long term effects. Let that sink in for a moment before laughing about people still wearing masks and avoiding crowds and indoor gatherings.
