This is stock number 9J360C. We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. You're new and used sports car headquarters. Today we are checking out this super clean 2012 Chevy Camaro 2SS. This vehicle has a 6.2 liter V8 motor and from this HD video you will be able to tell that this car is extremely clean all the way around inside and out. Victory red is the color we shoot all of our videos in 1080p so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet or smartphone device, turn them on right now because it is like you're right here looking at the car with me and definitely your best way to check out the vehicle before seeing it in person comes with the painted 20 inch alloy rims, front Brembo brakes, Pirelli 245-45 ZR20 tires and these tires have a good amount of tread left I'd say probably about half of the tread left at least. Didn't see any dents or dings on that front fender. It has the really good looking center stripes on the hood. Front bumper is in really nice condition. You get the HID headlights, the LED running lights, no major cracks on that front bumper, factory fog lights, passenger side fenders in pretty nice shape as well and the passenger side rim no scuffs or scrapes on that. Brakes look really good on here as well, at least the rotors do. Can't really see the pads but anyways down this side of the car take note of how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. We take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and just can't make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the car, you can see the car, hear the car and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here and you can make a smart buying decision from the comfort of your own home. In fact we offer the Summit FastPass option which is a way to buy the vehicle right on our website so you can apply for financing, figure out your trade, get all the numbers and have a really good idea of what your deal is going to look like before you even get here. It has the back Brembo brakes as well. I didn't see any dents or dings on that quarter but on top of everything and the most important thing is the quality and condition of a used vehicle so that's why we do the videos. We want to make sure that you're getting the most accurate representation of the vehicle as possible so when you do get here there's no surprises and your deal that you figured out on our website is everything that you had hoped it was. No rear exhaust, passenger side rear quarter is in excellent shape as well and for full disclosure this back rim is in nice shape too. Down the rest of the side of the vehicle no dents or dings, very nice and clean.  There are no rips, there are no tears on the seats, power driver seat, factory floor mats, these seats are heated. You get the Boston premium audio system, power windows, power locks, power mirrors. We'll check out the trunk here in just a second. Has the auto headlamps and as we hop inside the vehicle here it's going to tell me that the trunk is open but I can change that like that. So you can see that this one has 19,936 miles you get a compass display as well as a digital speedometer and information center, leather wrap, steering wheel, Bluetooth and Bluetooth and audio controls on the right, cruise controls on the left. Your menu button for that information center is right there and you'll notice that this one has the heads up display in the windshield, actually projects onto the windshield from a projector down there, pretty cool stuff. AMFM and SiriusXM radio capabilities, you have all your gauges down there, there are your heated seat buttons, this is the automatic transmission, stability control is right there and the passenger seat and floor mat are in excellent shape as well. No rips or tears in that seat, this car has never been smoked in. Up here are your control, your on-star capability controls and you do get your controls for your power soft top, your home link controls right there. So we're going to put the soft top up so that you can see how that works and see it working as it should. Well it says you got to close the trunk to operate it, so we'll do that in a second after we take a look inside the trunk, sorry about that. As long as we have the top off, we'll take a look at the back seats, no rips or tears back here, very nice and clean, it does have the latch child safety system for any car seats you may want to put in there. So we'll check out the trunk first, as you can see it's very clean back here and if you ever wanted to know where the codes were for the vehicle feel free to press pause right there, check those out, that's where they are, very clean back here and we'll close this and then we will put the soft top up so you can see it working and you can also see the condition of the soft top. So there it goes, works nice and smooth, so that's all the way, just got to press that, turn that and she's locked in. We'll take a quick look at that soft top and then we'll check out under the hood just to show you there are no rips or tears on the soft top, it's in really nice condition and it's like that all the way around and we'll take a quick look under the hood I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today, hopefully from this HD video you will have been able to tell just how clean this car is all the way around inside and out, engine bay is super clean as well, absolutely no corrosion, runs extremely smooth, this car has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, the car has been gone through mechanically 100% and is 100% ready to go, to see more pictures of this car or one of our other 450 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, Wranglers, sports cars, you name it we got it go to our website www.summitauto.com full pictures and descriptions of every single vehicle from two locations all at summitauto.com and if you'd like to check out more HD videos you can go to youtube.com slash summit auto, remember to like subscribe and share on this video and all the videos that you see there, in fact in a second you will see a link to subscribe to our YouTube channel on your left, a link to more sports car videos like this one on your right if you've not been to our website on the bottom link to this vehicle on our website click those check us out and we really look forward to helping with this super clean 2012 Chevy Camaro 2SS, thanks again


Let's be real. Everyone wants to change something about their life. But the reality is when you wake up each morning, whether it's 6 a.m. or 7 a.m. or 8 a.m. or 10 a.m., you get out of bed and chances are, you don't wanna do anything different than you were doing yesterday. But you know that if you do nothing different, nothing's gonna change. So what do you do if you are in this stalemate where you know things have to change but you just don't feel like it? That's what I wanna talk about in today's video.  Alex Hine, now before we jump in, there's a link right below this video for a free goal-setting worksheet to help you plan out how to have the best year ever of your life, all right? Check it out right down there below. Giving up on your goals and your dreams is pretty easy. I know that for me, when I first started getting really into holistic self-growth and not just career growth, but there were all these other things I wanted to work on. You know, I wanted to be fitter. I wanted to get into my first long-term relationship. I wanted to be a happier person. I wanted to be more disciplined. And yes, definitely, I wanted career growth. But honestly, I learned pretty early on that giving up is easy. And that's why most people give up because continuing to fight day after day or year after year is really not so easy. And it's in those times though that you have to come up with strategies that really work. You know, and for me, I was working a full-time job 40 hours a week and then any time I could dedicate to my self-growth or to starting a business or improve my career only happened after that time. For three years, I only saw my girlfriend on the weekend, never during the week. For three years, every day I came home after already working a full workday to go to the gym and put in a couple hours into my business. So that was not easy for me. I am not just Superman and it could come home and grind all that work out. That was actually really difficult for me to do. And it was around that time that I found this story from the creator of the Dilbert comic. And this is how the story went because I found it very, very helpful. Now, in the Dilbert creator, in one of his books, he shares this idea called the energy metric. And he said that his primary goal was really to be rich and famous, straight up, unabashed, unashamed. That was his goal. And he said that the problem that he realized was that there was no amount of hard work that guaranteed a business would succeed. And there was no amount of hard work that guaranteed something would work out. So what do you do? You basically keep trying entrepreneurial projects until one of them pops or one of them takes off. But the problem, like I found was the problem. Number one, when you are not that motivated, you're tired or you're already working full-time, which most of us will have to be, how do you actually continue to show up daily and work on those projects themselves? If you're tired? And he said the energy metric was the solution for him. And all that this meant was that the projects he chose to work on were not the ones that logically seemed the best or logically seemed like they were gonna make him a billionaire, but instead, they were the projects he found himself most intrinsically energized by doing. So again, in his free time, which for him was the hours in the morning before his job, the projects he got himself to do were the ones, even though he wanted to be rich, they were not the projects he thought would make him rich. They were the projects that he could actually get himself to do. So he was following what energized him. And I think this is super, super important. And I've heard this echo from Richard Branson, from Susie Bates, the founder of Pupuri, and many, many other really successful people. So here are three questions you can really use to figure out if you are on track for harnessing your energy metric. If there is something you want to do, whether it is fitness, dating, building a business, getting a new job, these three questions can help you understand if you are actually utilizing this energy metric to your advantage. The first one is really, what is the most fun path to this goal? So if you're trying to start a business for the first time, or you're looking to apply to new jobs, forget the career potential, forget the commute just for a second, which one of those is the most fun to do, right? It's gonna take a lot less effort, less discipline, and it's gonna be easier to do when you're really, really tired. Which path to this goal is the most fun to do? Question number two is what thing are you most excited to do each day towards this goal? So again, let's say your goal is to write a book or to get fit, right? If your goal is to get fit and you're unmotivated to go workout or exercise, how do you get fit? Well, maybe you have a couple of options. Going to the gym, going to a yoga class, doing a home workout, going and doing a workout in the park with a friend, any other myriad number of options. Well, which one of those are you most excited to do today right now? If your goal is to get fit, do you feel like going to the gym? If that's something you like, then do it. Do you need the accountability of going to a yoga class or hiring a trainer or working out with a friend? Then do that. Whichever one of those ironically you end up doing is the one that is the path of least resistance. And the final question is what is the easiest thing you could do every day versus what is the biggest, most effective thing that you keep procrastinating on? You know, for me now having written multiple books, this really helped me because in my head, I was like, let me write five pages a day until the book is done. But some days the pages flow and some days nothing flows. So I found that rather than having a fixed goal per day, every day my number one goal was, I'm just gonna write for an hour and whatever I get done is good enough. So so many people, you see this in the gym where at the beginning, people are jumping in for two hours a day and they inevitably are burnt out because they're sore as hell, they don't wanna do it, it's very time consuming. And not many people who are even trained for a long time in a sport or in the gym spend that much time in the gym. And I think what often happens is we procrastinate because it looks like this mountain each day. But if you reduce it to what is the small thing I can guarantee do every day, the 10 minute walk after work, whatever it is changing just your breakfast, that tends to work out a lot more often. So the third question for operating in this energy metric is really what is the smallest thing you actually find yourself doing every day versus the big thing that you really keep procrastinating on. All right you guys, I hope that energy metric can help you. It is something that has helped me a lot especially in the years of my life where I'm very tired and unmotivated and don't feel that well. It helps you get through those times. Now before you go, check out that link below it's for a free goal setting worksheet to have the best year ever of your life and I have two related videos for you right here.


Linux denialism. This is a new one. Actually, I've been seeing this more and more often. I apparently woke up from this crazy dream, and in this dream, I was, I had a YouTube channel. And on this YouTube channel, sometimes I would talk about this operating system called Linux. Okay, it's a funny name. And Linux is supposedly, in this crazy imagination of mine, a free software operating system that is all of the source code you could take and change and distribute. But thankfully, some comments cleared this up for me. Free software is actually an impossibility. Okay, Linux is an impossibility. That can't actually happen. Thank you for waking me from my dogmatic slumber. Let me read some of these comments, because they're funny. And I'm getting more and more of these. Okay? How programmers will get paid if everyone will use free software? Someone responds, that's a very good point. Why people don't care about what OS is installed? Windows just works. It's simple. And has all the tools needed for daily life? Pure free software is a fundamentalist claim. Wow. Here's another one. So many layers of confusion here. I will try to shed a light on some of it. You know what you can't do with free software? You can't make money. I'm looking at you, Linux. Oh, he's looking at Linux. Looking at Linux, an operating system that has existed for a quarter of a century, and that's the kernel, an entire operating system of all free software. And I don't know. Is Linus Torvald starving? Are his children starving? Are the other people who work in Linux starving? Wow. Linux exists as an operating system that many of us use and nothing but Linux. Yet somehow, I don't know, that's a logical impossibility. You have to have non-free software. You have to be selling licenses. Otherwise, no one is ever going to write it.  Now, if you said this kind of stuff back in the 80s. Here's, if you were in the 80s, you said something like this, oh, what a free software operating system. I don't think people will ever be motivated to write something like that. It's too big of a project. It's too much work. Unless people are getting paid for licenses, they're never going to write that. If you said that in the 80s, maybe you could get away with that. There were some free operating systems, depending on your definition of it. But that is something so retarded to say in the current year. We literally live in a world not just where there are Linux. There's Linux distributions everywhere, all of which use all free software. Or, you know, some put some proprietary stuff in there. But we live on a world that runs on free software. The internet is basically all free software, some exceptions. But every web server you connect to is running Linux. Every website you go to, wow, it's running in GeneXer Apache. Every email service, wow, it's running PostFix. Wow, they're all running free software. They're all running on Linux. When your cell phone connects to the internet, it's connecting to public NTP servers to sync with time and stuff like that. Literally, the world runs on free software. In fact, when I did a video last week talking about this, you know, really proprietary software is just this legacy thing that exists in some user interface devices, right? So there are some devices that run Windows and macOS. And people talk about, oh, well, Windows is still like the biggest market share and stuff like that. And that's true in terms of user interface devices. But what are those devices connecting to? They're connecting to an internet that runs on 100% Linux and BSD and free software. And of course, there's proprietary stuff that runs on these servers, but it is fundamentally a free environment. So this weird idea that, I mean, the weird thing is all software that matters is free. All software out there that is actually widely used and is developed consistently, that's free software. It's the niche stuff that is proprietary software. And it's only proprietary as an issue of history. So I know there are a lot of these people who want to make up reasons that free software can't exist. I don't know.   I've logically deduced that that is impossible. There have been people in history who have said that. But then, oh, look, there's someone on their bike. So obviously you've done something wrong in your derivation. So here are two things to think about when it comes to developing free software. First off, developing software is not as hard as people like to pretend that it is. Because I know this. I mean, look, behind us, we have a saw, a miter saw. Wow, I'm glad I filmed this here. If you have a hobby like carpentry, that requires startup costs. You might need a saw. You need wood. You need lots of tools. Those come with risks.   So there are many hobbies where you have lots of startup costs. Well, you know what kids do as a hobby? If they have nothing else to do and no money and nothing else, they start running software. That's a thing that everyone does nowadays. If you are at all interested in computers or stuff like that, that is just a natural interest that people have. And a lot of Linux and a lot of even proprietary software comes from people just tinkering around. So software development is a hobby that people do for free. So the idea that you have to pay people obs and gobs of money, not just in general, but specifically for licenses, is obviously stupid. So there are hobbyist operating systems out there. It's not just Linux out there. There are other operating systems as well that have specific purposes, like OpenBSD. I don't know. It's just a weird thing for people to say. And the second thing is you can make money on free software. Because guess what? All these people who write it, they make money. Not 100% of the people who want to make money do. But what do you think the people who write Linux, do you think they beg for money on the streets or something like that? There are more ways of making money off of software than having people pay for licenses. If anything, over the long term, that's a pretty naive thing because it harms the distribution of your software. It's not going to be made standard. It's not going to be used outside of it.  But one of the reasons that Linux has spread so well and became such a big thing is because anyone could use it and change it and design it for their own purposes. So it became a standard that is usable by so many other people. So if you look at the big foundations, at least, like Mozilla and Linux, they make a lot of money from doing software support or interacting with other big companies. But that is sort of a mean thing. I mean, there are also, if you look at individual people who write software, first off, again, most of them do it as a hobby and hobbyist software. I mean, most of us who watch this channel are using window managers that are written as hobbyist things. Like our user, most of the stuff that we're running are things that are not big monolithic programs. They're just minor things that people have written for their own purposes and distribute them and they work fine. But anyway, you can use, you can write free software platforms where people can exchange money. You can make money off of them. This idea that license fees are the only thing that's real. It's just fake. And they're based only on the historical development of software within the United States, frankly, because without American intellectual property law, none of this, I mean, there would be no such thing as proprietary software.  Like there's something that's stealing in some way. You can't replicate something that, you know, requires no cost of replication and doesn't steal it away from the original person. There's some legal reason you can't do that. That's an idea that only exists in the United States and, you know, related countries, I guess. So, you know, if you look, I mean, here's an example, right?  If you look at Steam, what does Steam do? Steam sells you licenses to games and then it is this environment that installs the game within the Steam environment and you have to connect to the internet to play it usually. Whereas if you look in other countries, so there's an equivalent, a sort of boomer tier equivalent to Steam that came out of Eastern Russia called Good Old Games, GOG, right? And they basically allow you to buy the game, but then you can, it's not DRM. You could install it on whatever computer. You have the right to do that. There's no restriction on that.  It's mostly old boomer games. But this whole notion that, I don't know, we have to have this multi-billion-dollar industry to protect alleged rights, like somehow, I don't know, it's just a bunch of ethereal nonsense, this idea. Like when I release my scripts or when I release programs that benefit people, like on one side, there's a self-interested portion on one side it just strikes me as really cringe to release something and try and ask for money. But on the other side, if I really want to get something widely used, it makes no sense to charge for it, right? I guess that's my mindset.  Actually, this last comment, it was actually TLDR, but let me continue reading it. We are not in the 1990s anymore. We are over this free software lunacy. Open source is good, meaning to have source code available.  Every human that uses a computer uses Linux. You know how I know because they connect to the internet. There's no, every 100% of computers that matter run Linux. There are a couple user interface devices that do not that run iOS, that run Windows. And guess why those devices are useful? Because they connect to Linux servers. That's why they're useful, okay? The so-called free, the so-called free software we all know is Communist Crap. And I wouldn't touch a GPL license with a 10-foot Paul Communist Crap. See, that's the weirdest thing for me because when I see this, I see that intellectual property is a, I guess, an invention of American law that has no, mind you, this is a world where people will develop software as a hobby. People develop free software. People develop free software operating systems just as a thing. So the idea that the government needs to come in and have this entire edifice of law to prosecute people who easily copyable software is just so absurd. That strikes me as very communist. The idea that the government needs to say, oh, well, this protected class of software developers, we need to make sure that they are getting paid for licenses, for the one-off licenses they have. That just strikes me as so absurd. I mean that, I don't know. That's just so, I don't know. When you really think about it, it's nutty. Anyway, free software exists. Linux exists. No device that matters that does not run Linux.   I don't know why people do this. It's dumb. Alright.


So we're out here in Seattle ripping this awesome middle school spot. We've been having a lot of fun flying, but we decided to do a little bit of a challenge for you guys. So we're going to play the game Simon, but with our drones. So for anyone who doesn't know the game Simon, what's basically going to happen is someone's going to set a trick. Then the next pilot has to do that trick and then add a trick of their own. And then the person after that has to do the first two tricks and then add a trick of their own. A pilot is eliminated if they forget a trick or they crashed. And the last person standing wins the challenge and they get to pick someone in the comments down below to win a set of motors. So go comment down below who you think is going to win. And let's get right into it. So we're doing lines, not combos. We're going to do lines. Correct. So we set the first trick of the line and the location of that trick. And then like ideally you're not going to like then do a trick on the other side of here. First trick is hit the rail gap. Yeah. OK. So next person could say front flip down the next set of stairs after the rail gap. All right. So we're going to do rock, paper, scissors to decide who goes first, second, third and fourth rock paper, scissors shoot. OK, so I'm just I'm last. Shoot. OK, so that means he wins. So you guys are fighting for second and third now to shoot. Dang, OK.  Like that. I'll do something rather easy. OK. OK. So I pop this wall into this other wall. OK. And then this little corkscrew. All right. Then whatever you want, since you're next. I'm not next. It's a, I'm last. I'm excited for it. All right. Do you need to know the trick in advance, right? You know how like when you play pool, you can't just like make the eight ball in. You got to call your shot. The corkscrew and then half y'all under the over thing and then punch out and then come down the wall on the back. Okay. You guys make this hard already. I was like, I was just too like a roll and then I'll have to flip and this is getting hard now. Here we go. Boosting. There we go. That was better. That was better. Hey, y'all. And then, oh, that, oh, okay. Okay. So that's it. So just kind of like back. Okay. Who's next? Shane. But then I'm going to come back under the walkway and then 360 y'all the picnic table. So that's going to be tricky one. Why do you guys take off so aggressively? You have to like just full throttle and do. That's where the juice comes from. Yeah. You got to wind the motors up real good. And then the juice comes out. You secrete the juice from your motors. That's where the black stuff is. Alrighty.  Oh my gosh, he's so good. He's so good. Oh my God, he's so terrifying. There we go. Oh shoot. Somebody, I've got to remember all the tricks. Hold on, hold on. So you got to, okay. So you do the court screw. Oh yeah. Reverse 180 under the thing. Huck it back into the hallway 360. Over the tip. And then what we're going to do is we're going to go into this hallway here. And then as we're screaming on the hallway, do a roll. I love this. Yeah. Don't hit the walls. Don't hit the walls. Yeah, so don't hit the walls. I guess if the thing is like, if you bounce off of something, but you do the trick, I think you're legal. Okay. I think it's if you crash. Yes. If you have to like turtle mode or something. Bouncing is fine. A round tap. Clean is fine. Yeah. Yeah. We're just changing everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Give us some leeway here. Give us some leeway. So court screw. Oh yeah. Switch to seven. Back. Down the wall.  Okay. Yeah. I'll spin. Here we go. Okay. And. Does it matter which way you roll? No, I don't think it matters. You just gotta do a roll. The terrifying part is just the fact that it's in there. All right. I'm coming in. What I think is cool about this is that we all fly different styles like a freestyle. And then depending on how far we get, we're gonna have like a two minute video. That's like, you just clearly see the styles change. All right, so you're up. What are you gonna do? Yeah, yeah. The cool thing about this too is we're great over there. That's the thing is where you set the trick. I'm kind of like. You can go and turn around. Did you sabotage me? Yeah, it's exactly. Oh my gosh. That's kind of part of the fun though because you can sabotage the next person. I like making it impossible for them to. Did I do a really bad Emelman up? Yeah, that's fine.  I'm real bad at it. You're not. You can do an Emelman. Yeah, so I'm gonna Emelman up and then head this way. Out of what? Out of the.  You understand this branch is hanging right over that. Yeah, I don't think there's a clear path. There's not a clear path. I've been diving it. All right, then do it. We'll find out. We're gonna find out. Let's go for it. I'm pretty forgetful. I wonder if you're even gonna remember the first trick. I said it, didn't I? Yeah, you did, exactly. Okay, here we go. Wait, so are we not repeating it? No, you have to, yeah, it's a thing. You gotta do everything now. I hit. And then over here, right? It's 360. That was all right. We'll allow it. All righty, here we go. And then you do it like down here, right? Yep. Man, this is actually hard. Oh! Oh! You did the trick though. Is your trick turtle mode? No, you can't. Okay, well, I humbly accept this defeat. Oh man, I'm shocked. I'm gonna go get my quad now. Rolls and hallways, they're hard. They're hard, okay? They're harder than you think. Taking that, walk of shame. Well, there's no way I make it that far. But if I do, I'll go down, turn around, and wall ride that edge of the wall. Oh! Okay. So at this point, I don't have to watch anymore and I can just badger you guys. I mean, yeah, but you can also watch and just be like, wow, I wish I could be like them one day. Yeah, but I also have the opportunity if I want to. You could just bash us though while we're flying. There's no rules against it. Redo, redo, redo, redo. Whoa, hold on. You have to lead. No, no, no, no. Did he use out? Yeah, he didn't crash though. That's okay. Huck it, huck it. Okay, now the next trick, now the next trick.  I think, I think, what do you think? I mean, I'll go for that. All right, I'll go for that too. All right, I think we understand this. Do it again, do just that trick again. I think that's fair, right? You think that's, we're just changing. You don't have to do the whole thing. You just gotta do the last trick. Changing the rules literally every five seconds in this game. And James has gotten the worst of every rule change. He's like, I'm not saying. For what else gets a redo except James? Oh, that was good. That was good. What did you do? That one's gonna be hard. So after the alley up wall ride. Is that what it's called? Whatever. That's what we call it. I'm gonna come underneath the walkway and just power loop the walkway up and then upstairs. Got it. You get close. Sketchy. Oh my God. I think I disarmed. Oh gosh, so. Wait, wait, wait, what happened?  Wait, I don't even know what happened. I didn't see it. That broke up all of it. He was hauling. He was hauling it and then hucks it back and then like no video. Go way too fast. Wait, wait, did you crash? Yeah, I hit the roof. Did you really? Yeah, I hit the top. Yeah, but you kept flying. I didn't hear it. But you kept flying, which according to rule 3.a means. No, no, no, no. You actually get to do it again. So power that drone up, Shane. What is this? What are you doing? I don't know. All right, Shane. Here we go. This is the one. You just slowed down so much for this. Oh, that was slick. Our walls and hallways are hard. All right, here we go. And that counts, that counts. Oh, in the line, in the line. He gets it clean. All right. Man, it's hard to remember all this stuff. Yeah, that's the point. That's the point. It's kind of the point. So after the Shane power loop, I'm gonna come over to this rail right here and I'm gonna do a sideways power loop. Like a, kind of like a corkscrew. Yeah. Really hard. Oh man. Oh! I saw it. What? No, no, no, no. That's not doing the trick. What was that? You just issued a redo for yourself. Oh yeah, I think that calls for a redo. All right, it calls for a redo. All right, here we go. Here we go. All right. Dude, that was a good one. That was a good one. I like that. Brace yourself. Yeah, it was. You'd be proud. Like how you float that into there. All right. And then that's it. I think we're actually kind of coming up with a good freestyle like line here. I like this. Using a little bit of everything. It's just been so much fun playing. I imagine. Yeah.  So I've made a decree. There will be no more redos. You can't hand out redos for anybody, not even yourself. No more redos. If you crash, if you mess up, then you're out. I'm mostly talking about the issuer of all redos. Sideways power loop. Yeah. But a little earlier. So instead of finishing down here and going this way, change it slightly so we go down the stairs. Sure. Yeah, I think I know what you're talking about. Yeah, that's fine. That's fair. And then a front flip down the stairs. Okay. All right. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Let's see. Let's see. I want to go home. It's done. It's done. Nice. No, that's all right. I mean, it literally hit like every single. Hey. Hey, but you know what's important? You did not finish last. You beat Pete of X. This guy taught me everything I know. So what are you thinking, Shane? Flying towards the in-between gap. Okay. It's gonna walk away. Yeah. And just doing a roll. Through the gap. Through the gap. Yeah. Because he did a roll in the hallway. That's true. Okay. Front flip through the gap. That's gonna be kind of hard. You can gap. You don't necessarily need to flip in it. No, he said flip in it. He said through the gap. All right. This guy. You can't go through the gap and then flip after. It's got to be like in the gap you're flipping. All right. All right. This is where video is good. Oh. I feel like there's got to be some like sudden death for like the championship. So basically, we've done basically everything to Mike Gorkscrew, right? You guys all take off at the same time. You have to do all the tricks. First person to do all the tricks moves on. Everyone else is eliminated. So if you mess up a trick, do you get to just retry that trick? If you mess up a trick, you got to go back to the beginning. But if you're able to turn the fly, fine. The first person to do the whole thing, come back and land, they move on. So Shane's gonna win because he's the fastest. But here's the thing. If he messes up a trick, I'm just saying, but this is your chance, Mr. Life is so unfair to me. Everything is just ready against me.  It's just you. That's true. Racers, arm your drones. We're going less than five. Beep. I'm behind both of y'all. Oh, I shouldn't have popped so high. Oh, someone's to the husband. I'm just hoping that you guys mess it up. I think Shane's in the lead. Oh, they're all together. They're all three of them. Oh, someone hit. Oh, three. I kept it going. Yeah, if you keep it going. Oh, power loop. So it's to the corkscrew. Who's it going to be? Oh, someone did an extra corkscrew. Who's going to win? Who is that? I think that Shane is the winner. Shane is the winner. No, you were ahead the whole time. That was good. That got pretty wild. So when I was like right behind you guys here. Oh, absolutely no video when I did the 360 or the table. So I made, I made the wrong choice on the flick back. I went up and then I'm like, oh, I'm like way up here. And they're already like going down through the hall. All three of you were actually together into that hallway. And then all three you crashed and like bounced or crashed doing that roll. I cannot. That roll trick was a good addition. That roll gets me. So you're back in now. There's no more sudden deaths. Redoos, you or me for that matter. And you got to set a trick again. Yeah, I'm going to do the, the front flip through the gap, the hallway gap. If you crash this time though, it's done. Like there's no. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you sure?  I love it. I love it. I love it. Well, that battery is low, bro. Bro, you have no battery. Yeah, it gets a little bad back there. What battery? Exactly. You're 20 volts. Oh my God. Oh my God. He's still up. He's still up. I don't know if I'm going to be able to roll. He did it. Oh my gosh. The power loop is coming. He's got 16 volts. Oh, that's pretty good. Oh my God. Hold on. Yeah, you're going to win. Hold on. We got this. We got this. We're going to get it. This guy is 11 volts. I think it's inevitable. We all know that Van Evers is going to win. That was a lot of fun though. I actually didn't expect it to be that much fun. I think what's cool is like, we actually kind of made a line. Like kind of actually made a good flow line. I was pretty impressed by that.  So something that I thought was pretty cool is like, we're taking turns doing tricks, which means that you're doing tricks that you wouldn't necessarily do yourself on your own. And you're learning how to integrate those into a line. I mean, that part of that is like adding to the difficulty, but part of it is adding to the creativity that everybody gets to, you know, share what they can do best. What I thought was really cool was the fact that I did some tricks and some lines that I would probably have never thought so myself. Like when I'm watching you guys, I'll maybe copy and rip them off and do it myself. But then to like actually do the exact trick the way you're doing it is really, really cool. It kind of gives me some ideas for like how we can finish off this spot today. So I think we just need to get back to some ripping. And we thank you guys so much for watching this episode.

Drawing here and wait for people to get into the chat, like this. Yesterday on Inktober is Pinktober. We drew and forgot to sign a small world. It's a small world after all. The Alien Gamer. Hi, welcome. The first comment of the day. The first and the last comment of the day. Oh no. Hi, Mona. Good to see you. So... I'm terrible at forgetting to...  Hello. I'm terrible at forgetting to sign my art. Kenobi voice. Hi, could you possibly do a painting in yellow or teal? The colors of spina bifida. October is also spina bifida awareness month. And I don't know what that is, so please do make me more aware. Why late today? Late today because they are hard, they are tough. No fun. Let's start. So basically, I decided to... Just before sitting down, I decided to just be open and talk about this. Okay, so understandable. It's a birth defect that affects the development of the spinal cord. Fairly rare, but my little sister has it, yes. But if you could send me information, I probably won't be able to do anything for this. Month, but I could do something perhaps later. So send me information on my mail or on my Instagram or Facebook or anywhere you can send messages. So I decided that I would talk about this openly today. And usually I do that, so that's not a great difference. But I've gotten over the worst of the COVID. There are still after effects and after tiredness. But I'm really fearing that my COVID has been enough to bring the depression back because I was doing very well mentally with a lot of exercising and a lot of work and a lot of mental work. And like the stream nurse, yes, do like the stream. And because of situations in my life and because of also not being able to pick up exercise where I left it off, 98 people and seven likes, you can do better, better, better, that's not a word. Okay, so because of not being able to, because abruptly stopping the exercise and not being able to pick it up again because of exhaustion after the COVID, I think that is doing all sorts of things to my head. So I've been feeling this calming closer and closer. And today my head is a mess. Do you watch anime? Not enough, not anymore. I don't watch enough anime anymore. That's where I am today. It's a hard day. What happened to the mic is the sound worse than it was yesterday. I'm hoping for a yes for an answer because that would mean I spent my money wisely. Game over. Hello. Sound is good, okay. I have to compare the sound as it was yesterday compared to today. You sound fine, okay. Sound good, excellent. What that? Can you draw a Burmese Naga in the next week? Next vid. Probably not in the next vid because that one is probably drawn already. But if the Naga isn't on my list, it should be on my list. And I'll put it on my list if it's not there. What are you making? I guess you will find out. I don't know how you draw it so easily. It's not easy. That's the trick. It is not easy at all. It is... I used to say that I joke about it being easy. But the truth is, or what I say now and it is closer to the truth, is that it's harder than it looks. It looks like I'm doing this with great fluidity and ease and I'm able to talk while doing it. But it is actually requiring a whole ton of concentration at any point. I saw it. Thank you. Do remember to subscribe. How long did it take you to get to this skill level? So I started drawing when I was one. That would mean 42 years. I think I'm at the highest skill level I've ever been so 42 years. And quite a bit of that time was very conscious practice. And part of that time was definitely not practice. But I worked a lot and I trained a lot. How has your week been? Not great. Not great. Started with the final days of my Covid. And then just not managing to get back to how I feel should be. When did you develop your style? That is also a difficult question. Because the wonderful wizard of us. Because it is hard for me to actually know what my style is. Sorry I was late. No problem. It's been evolving. Thank you for sending a super chat. Super chats are a great way of supporting. Also you can become a member. That's a fantastic way of supporting. Thank you so much. I'm sorry. Don't worry. I've had a mad week to get bullied by the whole middle school every day. That is awful. Fight back isn't always an option. When I was in school I reacted to bullying by fighting and joking. So I was aggressive and funny. But it didn't actually help as much as I thought at the time. And a lot of the issues I still have to this day. A lot of the patterns I picked up during school are the things I'm struggling to do with. So fighting isn't always an option. Or isn't always, an option isn't always the best option either. It has its flaws. Is it an eldritch monstrosity? No. No one has seen what it is yet. I'm drawing something out of my ability for the day. But I started it. I'm going to try to make it work somehow. And hopefully you'll see what it is before I'm done. I hope you sort it out. Yeah, definitely. I hope you sort it out and find someone to talk to and that life picks up for you. Some sort of buff dude. That is correct. I'm drawing some sort of buff dude. Hey Kim, I missed yesterday because I was running Mörkborg. I ended up using some of your art. My table loved it. Excellent, thank you so much. Thank you so much. That is amazing. I've never played Mörkborg myself. I know that my art has been used in a lot of Mörkborg, in some, by some Mörkborg players and in some Mörkborg expansions and stuff like that. So there is a connection there. Never officially I think. But it seems awesome the graphic style is great. And it's Swedish. So that's a minus. Having to deal with bullies yourself, what do you think about artists that bully others? I think that is awful. I think that is, it is based in security. It is deficiency and it is shouldn't, definitely shouldn't be that way.  We don't need another rejected painter. And it's about to attack and the viewer is about to see their life flashing before their arts. Maybe, maybe we'll see. But my feeling is that generally, my feeling is that generally there isn't all that much bullying in the arts.  I curse less on stream than in reality. I try to be conscious in my speech as far as I can. But it is. I like how if you check two videos, two years back, it's the same table cleaner bowl. It is. I'm at school, but I want to stop by and say I love your channel. Your social and economic stances are very on point and how you fuse these topics into your art is masterful. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I've been digging through some questions here. Most hate given to artists are usually by non-artists.  Jaden Smith watches Kim. Is that the one in Karate Kid? I haven't seen them interacting. But that would be cool because I loved him in Karate Kid, if that's the right Smith. And if you're not joking. I'm one of the things I dislike the most. What are your favorite things? Regular Indian ink. This is the brand I used the most. I buy it because it comes in litre bottles. Talents, it's great. What's been your favorite drawing so far in the Pinktober? Yeah. Good question. Good question. Never tried mushroom ink. Wanna try it someday? I hear it's kind of transparent. Favorite drawing this Inktober.  What others did I like? I don't know. It is really hard to have favorites. Yes, and it was a joke from a cringy interviewer who said people age bore him because they don't talk about the political and economical state of the world. And the commentators used the same word. That was a very inside joke. That was a few layers too deep. But what I was going to say is one of the things. Yeah, maybe. No worries. No worries. I guess. Or maybe Jane Smith is more popular than I thought. Everyone except me got the joke. Maybe. Who knows? Karate Kid was fun indeed. Yeah, great remake. It should have been called Kung Fu Kid, but I guess that was the studio. Not the ones that made the film.  Yup. Loved Karate Kid, to be honest. Yep. And yeah, Jane Smith was one of the reasons why it was so good. It was brilliant in that role. And Jackie Chan, of course. Yeah, Karate's Japanese Kung Fu Kid is better. Yeah, so Hadal Schwart, the director, wanted to... I think he said that he wanted to call it Kung Fu Kid. But the studio... And it was rumored to be called Kung Fu Kid. But the studio said, nope. There's no deer skull, nope. Hopefully you'll see what the drawing is. Pretty soon. Third day in a row of tuning in. Excellent. What are we making today? What do you think we're making? It has to do with flashing. And he's not flashing his naughty bits. Hammered. Yes. Warton came having the battle COVID. Nope. This is not how I feel today. Wait, it's Thor! Tood, yes. You are correct. What is your favorite book? I don't know. It's been a long time since I read a fiction book.  Yeah. Books that had a great impact on me include... Lord of the Rings, Lord of the Flies, God of Small Things, Glamurama... But you know, I've never been terribly into... Reading has never been easy for me to say it like this. I'm so tired today now. I just want to... Now I just want to end this. I haven't seen Thor 4. I really like... Taiki Vaityti. I sort of get the sense that what happened with... That movie... And I don't know anything, but it's sort of... Get the sense that what happened is actually something positive. In that... I think... One of the things that's been going on with... The Marvel movies lately is that they've been giving... Good directors... Too much creative control... And too much leeway. And the results are often things that don't quite... Always fit. You seem out of focus. Shouldn't be out of focus. The Hobbit is one of my favorite books. I think I like the Hobbit better than Lord of the Rings... When I think a little bit about it. Is the image out of focus for anyone else than James? Yes, it is for me. I'll try to... Do maybe like this. Might be other problems. Might be my internet. So thanks for letting me know. And I don't know if there's anything I can do. I hope the recording comes out nice. I'm from the Indian state in The God of Small Things. I haven't read it though. It's a magnificent book. And I really liked... Adan Datty Roy's... Playfulness with language. And it's a gripping story. And... I think that as an activist afterwards... She has done a lot of good as well. It is... Hello! Hope all is well. Thank you. Thank you. Try to get some energy. How are you feeling with the Covid? So the Covid... Lost it for a week and a half. And now it's just some after... After Covid.  But it's okay. Back from showing my friend... The digital art tattoo I drew. She says it's good for a beginner. Excellent. Well at least he's still doing what you love. Yes, I am not complaining. Or I am complaining. No problem is so small you can't complain about it. As I always say. But I don't mean to... Say that my complaints are... More... Important than others. But... It does sometimes... Help to... Be able to talk about things. And get it out there. And just listen to how it sounds. And that's a luxury that I... Can divulge in because of... All you fantastic people...  That's so... It's... Nothing more than that. Was looking through previous Inktober. Love that 2014... Mountain one. I think that was one of the first years I did... Inktober and completed it. I tried a few years and just... Failed miserably. But 2014 with... As the mountains of madness... Making that video and yeah. I think that was first or second year I completed... Inktober. Loki is Odin's step-brother. No he is his blood brother. Which means they are friends. And they swore an oath with blood... To each other. So no... No sort of family ties. Or at least in the... The... Mythology as we know it. Will you do another challenge next Inktober? Or just your own ideas next time? Yeah so I'm really hating the... Prompt from Stuart Sample's... Inktober prompt list and that's not really... His fault. It's just that I didn't look at the... Prompts before I... Said yeah pink sounds good. I really don't fit my art style. So that's been making it... Harder for me to figure out what I'm going to do. But it's also been a great challenge. Because I can't just... Draw ghouls and ghosts every day. Do you like sparkling water? Yes I love sparkling water. Probably going to stop drawing mushrooms in computer science lessons... And actually pay attention. Do that. School is better if you manage to... Learn something despite school. But it's been very interesting to work from this... Prompt list that I don't like. Because it has pushed me to do... Things I probably wouldn't otherwise. That's one of the points where the inktober is to push yourself. So in that sense the list has been perfect. Just perfectly difficult as well. Do anyone have any questions? Because I need to let this ink dry a little bit. So I can talk about a question or two. Answer a question or two a little bit. A little bit more focused. Probably not that focused. I don't know if you've noticed, but focus isn't my greatest strength. Now there are many people in. Do you like Mats Mikkelsen? Love that art of a man in Hannibal. I love him as a brilliant actor. I didn't like Hannibal. Probably it came at the wrong time for me. Because there were some of the themes in Hannibal that I was just growing so bored with. That was more about my... I'm being re-crawled. Someone is re-crawling me from outside my window. Okay, let's let this dry a little bit. And answer some questions. You swore to destroy. I'm going to get a copyright notice because my son re-crawled me and played Never Gonna Give You Up through a window. But I don't know if the chat heard it. Okay, a lot of questions now. I just read the epic of Gilgamesh. One of the oldest books is quite progressive. It's not really progressive. It is a very conservative story in that it is sort of a guidebook for how to be a good king and not be a bad king. Which sort of really jumps over the important question that we have kings, which it doesn't take into account at all. Which also is a little bit... Not strange, but it is a little bit historically strange because the Sumerian city-states didn't have kings to begin with. And then by Gilgamesh's time, they had grown these hierarchies. So it was a story probably to prop up the king's power and say, no, no, no, no, no. Some kings can be bad, but Gilgamesh, he learned that life is valuable and that death comes to all. And so he's a good king. Never mind those who say we don't need kings. But in terms of sexual morals, it's not heteronormative in our way because that didn't exist at that time. But it has some other sexual morals than we have today. I've got to leave the live. Goodbye. Do you prefer incredibly detailed portraits or more simple yet obvious ones? I very seldom prefer very detailed art. I prefer to have some life and some brushstrokes and some roughness and some primitiveness in both my art and the art I like. Should I read the prose edda? Is it long? It is kind of, if you find a good translation, it's kind of a fun read. The Vikings and then the Icelandic Christians who came after, like Snyda, were great storytellers and they told fun stories, actually, which is the same as with Gilgamesh. If you find a good, not just translation, but a good, what is it called? Not a rewrite, but a reinterpretation, something like that, where you try to tell the original story but in a way that's understandable for a modern audience, then that's fantastic. It's a great story, and prose edda has many great stories in Norwegian. King Salgas has many great stories. So yeah, absolutely. If you like that stuff, read it. I've never tried airbrushing, except like a few minutes here and there.  I don't think I've painted any portraits very big, not bigger than, like, I mean, a little bigger than life size. Can you tell us a fact about Scott? He is awesome. Cedus isn't on the live today. How did you find your art style? I found my art style through doing what I found fun and experimenting and also by one of the things I did, and that doesn't really fit for everyone, I tried to copy art styles I like, and I failed in my way, and also, for instance, I had a period where I was trying to copy artists like Joe Mad, and I remember getting closer and closer to be able to copy him, and then thinking, this isn't fun. I don't find this fun. I don't like my art when I draw that. I like Joe Mad's art, but I don't like mine when I try to draw like him. Also with things like hyper-realism, and hyper-realism, or more classical realism, and those types of things, again and again I think, ooh, I want to learn how to paint like that, or draw like that, and then the closer I come to it, the more my art bores me. So it's a combination of trying out every style that speaks to me in some way, trying out everything from the clean lines of Tintin, or Frank Miller, you can still see him in my art. Manga artist, and like, I mean, Casui de Utomo and Hiraoku Samura, and trying to draw like them, or trying to draw like Sam Keith, or Chris Buckalow, or even once in a while painters, trying to figure out how Rembrandt drew, or trying to figure out how Van Gogh painted, or all of that stuff, and then just going back to what I find fun. Trying to draw like Charles Schultz would draw a peanut, trying to draw like, yeah. I've tried to draw a lot of different things, and then more and more I come back to the stuff I like, which is the stuff I picked up from Frank Miller, from Sam Keith, from Jay Lee, Mark Teixeira, from Stefan Kvarnland, from Jens Kostiva, from a lot of comic book artists, with a kind of gritty and splattery style. What is your least favourite art style? I mean, I like any art that's well done, and I'm more and more, I mean, I used to hate a lot of other art, because I was jealous of people who had skills that I didn't have, and now I'm sort of more in a place where I get fascinated with things that are done well in a way that I could never do them, and I find that fascinating. So I don't really have any least favourite art styles anymore. Boring art. I mean, art that's made not good enough to be fascinating and not sloppy enough to have life, I think. Your art is amazingly beautiful. Thank you. What are your thoughts on Bernie Wrightson and Frank Cho? So, Bernie Wrightson, you can see a lot of him in my art in how I do my line work, when I do line work. Frank Cho is one of those artists who I absolutely loved and adore, and I tried to copy his style for a bit. And again, the closer I got to that type of Frank Cho or Art Adams or Adam Hughes, these very cartoony realistic, very fine, beautiful shapes, beautiful lines, all of that stuff. The closer I got to it, and I'm not saying that I could copy it perfectly, but I became good enough at it that I could once in a while in a single image copy it. I could never do a whole comic book in that style or anything like that, but I became good enough to occasionally manage to copy it. And whenever I managed that, then it didn't appeal to me. So, very fond of Frank Cho, but the type of art isn't for me for my drawing sensibilities. You got a follower. Thank you. Why did you start doing art? I was one year old and I just never stopped. How are you so good at it? I was one year old and I never stopped. And that is a half-joking answer, but I had drawing talent. I had a family that supported me drawing. I hated school, so I skipped in order to draw. And I had a bit of talent and that talent made me lazy. It made me think that I could draw less than those around me and still remain better than them. And that was true when I was 15, 16, 17 that it started to get less true when I was 18, 19, 20 and then around the age of 25 to 27 I saw that people who I had dismissed in my egotism, in my arrogance as talentless hacks who they will never create any art like me I suddenly saw that a few of them were starting to get better at me at art, technically better and sometimes even more interesting. And that scared the living shit out of me and angered me, not at them, but at myself and gave me the drive to start training hopefully more than them. So if I hadn't started taking art more seriously around the age of 27 when I was actually working as a professional artist already I was doing a lot of work, but I wasn't taking it seriously enough and then I, ever since then I've been taking it a lot more serious. Have you seen Madame Blumfang's work? Blumfang's work? No, I haven't, don't know. Non-serious question, but do black metal bands get lost in the woods there?  If you look at the photos of black metal bands in the deep primordial Norwegian woods you will see that all the trees are roughly one to one and a half meter maybe two meters away from each other about the same thickness, about the same size. When you see the tops of them, they're all the same height. Why is this? Because we don't really have any primordial woods I saw your question just for fun, I can discuss that but now I'm answering another question. Where was I? Yeah, when you... Where was I? Trees, same height. The reason for this is that there's no primordial woods left in Norway one acre here and there, deep in Songnefjorden or some other places like that. You're not being intrusive just for fun, I'll get to your question, I saw it. All the woods in Norway have been cut down and replanted and up until we found oil logging timber was our biggest industry and it was like that from probably even back to the Bronze Age so around the time of the Vikings very likely we had few primordial woods it was all cultural landscape and what you're seeing today the dark woods with black metal people with corpse paint that is basically standing in between a bunch of planted woods that would have been cut down if the timber industry hadn't died in the 50s and 60s. Leafy, I can't believe I missed pink elephant on parade. A small world after all. Yeah, I can give you a little glimpse. Here it is. I really like this one. And this is today's one but I'm going to... This is not today's one, this is yesterday's one and I'm going to finish this soon. I'm just going to answer just for fun's non-controversial question. Thoughts about Islam? Yeah, it's an absolutely fascinating religion same as I think about Christianity and Judaism and basically all the other religions I think there are some major problems with how Islam is used politically these days one is that it picked up fundamentalism from American Christianity and you can see the connections there historical connections there and it's being used as a weapon for kind of brutal not kind of really brutal warfare or resistance warfare to a degree and in a lot of countries it's being used to to prop up exploitative governments like in Iran or any of those places Saudi Arabia and at the same time it's being used to other I mean other almost half of the world by saying the... by our white and Christian culture being able to say these Muslims are barbaric and that's simply not true we've seen the same barbarism in Christianity Christianity was one of the reasons why colonization and slavery got so huge as it did was that the Pope decreed that these people of other skin colors weren't really human so do as you please with them until they're Christians so yeah I think there is a huge problem with how Islam is being used politically both by conservative religious powers in the Arabic world and as a scary monster for Westerners I dislike it primarily because it's theocratic it's inherently political I mean what's the difference there with Christianity Christianity is inherently political and all of the versions of Christianity that has survived are theocratic because they have survived by being useful as tools for the state but if you look at for instance Sufi Islam I just read the conference of the birds by the Iranian poet when was it written 11th century something like an old poem and it talks it is just a magnificent poem it talks about things like the unjust cleric who hasn't found the path of Allah and the just Christian that has and it talks about the transvestite or transsexual prostitutes that are on God's path and the king that is not and it talks about crushing your ego and then finding God within yourself and there's nothing theocratic about it so just now you are spouting a lot of propaganda because there has been more secular directions of in the Arabic world and in Islam there has been quite other views on for instance homosexuality I mean it wasn't accepted in old Iran but there are periods where it was a known secret that the Shah was in male to male relationships and it was just a part of it and one of the things that has happened and that we see again and again and we even see it in Palestine today is that the US and the British will always support religious Muslim freedom fighters over secular ones so what happened in Palestine was that the more secular resistance movements like the PLO and FATA and the PA all were undermined by the US and the British and Israel until Hamas got more and more power and that's the same as happened with the Taliban it's the same as happened in Iraq with ISIS the Taliban were funded by the US to fight the Soviets ISIS was funded by the US to fight the secular Saddam I'm not saying Saddam Hussein was great I'm not saying anything of that sort but one of the reasons you can look at Saudi Arabia the best buddies with the US Iran is sort of the outlier here because Iran was again Iran had a secular Shah and then the British basically instigated the Iranian Revolution and they got a religious rule instead but now unlike Saudi Arabia Iran isn't friendly with the US so Saudi is getting more liberal thanks to MBS what is MBS? they also favor supporting right-leaning groups over left-leaning or centrist groups yes because one of the problems with the PLO was that it was a left-leaning group other poor problems as well I'm not trying to paint anyone as heroes here but the US and the British and also to a degree the rest of the EU will support far-right conservative religious forces above forces that are potentially secular and socialist but the king Mohammed bin Salman al-Saudkran prince of Saudi Arabia I don't know enough there I didn't know you could stream on YouTube shorts Do Norway, Finland and Sweden share similar myths and fairy tales? Norway and Sweden has a lot of the same fairy tales and a lot of the same mythology the distinction of the Norwegians and Swedes and the Danish and also the Finns go all the way back to at least written down in Viking age but it is kind of, how should I say it Norway, Sweden and Denmark and Iceland share the same mythology the Finns have another related mythology and if you look at all the mythologies around Europe it is a lot of things that is shared and a lot of things that is influenced Europe, I mean the whole of Eurasia has had close cultural contact for extremely long periods of time and just Norway have its own vampire myth No, I don't think so Now let's get back to the drawings I'm not saying that Norwegian and Swedish fairy tales are all the same but I am saying that there is a lot of similarities and a lot of the different versions of the same fairy tales but that is true within Norway as well I mean fairy tales are stories to be told and retold and to change with the telling that is sort of the point of fairy tales they always change What's your favourite colour baby? Living colour Chocoraine is my favourite colour Yay, the connection is back, excellent Samhain turns to Halloween Yes, Saturnalia didn't turn to Christmas but there might have been some influences here and there There is, just to talk about the Saturnalia turned to Christmas there is a lot of simplistic thinking when it comes to culture and religions and it's always easy to simplify things and say this turned into this and they stole this from that and I'm not saying that you said that it's very common to say things like Christians stole this from the Romans and from the Pagans and stuff like that and that is sort of a myth making so we see it for instance when we look at what happened in the Viking Age when the Viking world got Christianised Now this wasn't a violent Christianisation in the same way as in some parts of Europe and in the colonised world it was a fight between different kings who wanted power over Norway and some of the kings on either side was Pagan and some of them were Christian and as a part of the line of kings that won Christianity and also the baptising of the elite was something that happened in a pretty bloody way but for most people in Norway peasants things didn't really change all that much and in the early Christian Norway we don't really see any rules or laws against Paganism because a lot of peasants had converted willingly I mean Jesus was a more favourable god towards poor people than the previous gods and in addition to that they hadn't really changed their way of living all that much so all the Pagan rituals got just transplanted into a Scandinavian Christianity and then after three, four, five hundred years of this that's when we increasingly start to see laws against the Pagan customs and that's when we get the witch burnings and that's also when you get a lot of the persecution of divergent thinking that's often associated with Christianisation but it didn't really happen in Norway until a few hundred years after the Christianisation and the result of that is that a lot of Pagan customs just kept on going and there are some of these customs were just ignored by the Christian authorities and kept on even into modern times I mean we still put out a porridge to the Nisse or the Tompta at Christmas which is a Pagan custom so this myth of I'm not saying it never happened like this I mean in a lot of the colonised world Christianity was much more bloody and legislative when it took over but my point, if I have a point is that a lot of how religions and beliefs and societies evolve is a lot more complicated and fluid then what we think of the Vikings were taken over by the Christians and then the Viking customs died or the Roman Empire fell and then Europe went into the Dark Ages and all of those big story hooks of history they usually turn out to be bullshit because history is complex and fluid and weird I think the painting reminds me of how Toad 4 could have been such a dark and cool movie I'm looking forward to finally seeing Thor and knowing it's a two hour long sitcom it is one of the things that I like the most about the newer Marvel movies is that they've allowed people to make weird shit to do strange things with very high budgets that normally doesn't get made and that is a fantastic thing but that also means that you'll have hits and you'll have misses and you'll have things in between but that's a much more fun way to do things than the alternative which is to repeat your successes and make it just darker and grimmer every time and that's no fun I liked it, I thought Toad 2 was the dark world it was okay, the most boring of them, that's okay we have had a lot of viewers today but only 33 likes so keep pressing the likes my connection failed me, oh no then do you want LK Bucks or Double and give it to the next person I haven't seen Lokey yet or the second season of Lokey yet I liked the first season okay until the final episode I'll give this a like I have to stop, I was hoping to do a short stream and instead I ended up painting, drawing Thor Pink Thor Pink Thor Rosa Thor Rosa Thor so yep Marvel to me is one of the movies ever made I don't know what that even means okay so if you've been watching this and want to support then you can become a channel member that's a great way of supporting you can go to patreon.com.com or you can go to my website to buy originals, print and merge and use the promo code inktober23 for 20% off all October, it's not much October left or if you want to support me and not use any money you can support me by using my art all my art is released for free use so you can download it, you can print it you can copy it, you can send it to your grandmother you can even sell it as long as you put my name on it thank you all for joining me today and hope you liked Pink Toot bye bye


I was in my mum's car on my way to my first proper job interview. It was an assessment centre, maybe you've been there. So I'm driving, I pull into the car park, it's busy, and I get out of the car. There's people filing into the venue, I file into the venue. As I get inside, it's really busy. They're running multiple assessment centres today. I look around the room. There's people milling about, nervously chatting, having a cup of coffee. Something doesn't feel quite right to me. I don't know what it is. I put it to the back of my mind. After all, I am really nervous. It's really important to me. I notice a cue. I wander over. I join this cue. It looks like it's for registration. I'm at the back of the cue. I look over and I can see people seem to be giving their name, standing, having a photo, taking a badge. Then I assume walking into their assessment. I wait my turn. I'm getting closer to the front. Closer to the front. Finally, it's my turn. I step up to the desk. I say, hi, I'm Jessica. I stand there ready to have my photo taken. The person behind the desk says to me, we know who you are, don't worry, you don't need a photo. You're the only girl here today. Right. So I take my badge, kind of a little disorientated, not going to lie. I think, okay, fine, let's go. So I take the badge and I walk off, find the assessment centre. I open the door. I step inside. And sure enough, I am the only woman in a sea of men. Now, that for me was the first of many similar experiences in my career. And it was the spark that led to me to the journey that I've been on to become a really passionate advocate for diversity and inclusion. And what I've learnt on that journey is there is far more power in diversity and inclusion than there is risk. Now, I'm fortunate to work at Just Eat Takeaway where diversity and inclusion is really valued. And in my role as Chief Product Officer, I get to lead our efforts in inclusion through our technology and products for customers and for employees. And that's not just in the UK, because you might all know Just Eat, and I hope you've ordered a pizza recently. But if not, look us up. It's not just in the UK. We are serving 94 million customers worldwide. We're operating in 20 markets all the way from Auckland to Vancouver. We have 680,000 restaurant and grocery partners in our network. Thousands of careers and 15,000 awesome employees who power our business. And I know and we know that diversity and inclusion is a key part of driving innovation and a key part of our business success. So today my job is to help you unleash the power of inclusion. You're going to walk away from here with my top tips. But what do I mean by inclusion? Well, at the heart of inclusion is a sense of belonging. We want to belong. What does belonging mean? The heart of belonging is connection. So it's the end of the day. And it's a bit cheesy, but we're going to do some audience participation. So get ready. I want you all to feel connected. Also those of you watching at home, please take part as well. I want you to feel connected. I want us to speak with one voice. So I would like to ask you please to stand up. And I know for those of you at the top it's quite high, but please join us. So I want us to get connected. And what I mean by that is I want us to speak with one voice. I want that voice to be heard. So we're going to have a practice. I'm going to count to three. And on the count of three, I want you to shout out, we belong. I did tell you it was cheesy. So ready practice run. Let's go. One, two, three, we belong. Actually, that was not bad. I was ready for that to be not the best, but that was pretty good. Okay, but we can do better. We can do better because you know inclusion takes practice. Connecting is a constant. So we're going to do it one more time. Please give me everything you've got. Are you ready? One, two, three, we belong. How nice is it to feel connected, to feel like you are connected and talking in one voice? Have a seat. Okay, so I promised you I would help you unleash the power of inclusion. It's all about unlocking that untapped potential. And you are going to walk away from here today with my three tried and tested steps. These are things that I have implemented in many teams and many businesses over the years. And I believe are the heart of actually really achieving that power, really unlocking that potential rather than just talking about it. So what are those steps? It makes business sense, prioritise it. It has to be lived to succeed. And it has to be recognised. These are my three tips and I'm going to talk to you about them now. It makes business sense, prioritise it. I've got some stats for you. There are hundreds of studies that have been done on diversity, inclusion, belonging and related topics. And there is consensus among all of those. There is a consensus that diverse teams and inclusive cultures are good for business. There's a few stats on this slide, but there are hundreds and hundreds of others that say exactly the same thing. It's not rocket science. If you bring a variety of perspectives to the table, if you create an inclusive culture where everybody's voice is valued and you can raise your voice and you can give that perspective, then you are going to bring creativity to your organisation. And creativity is what helps us to really drive innovation.  But we all know innovation, that's at the heart of the product breakthroughs that we really want to achieve. That's where we build success. So yes, the financials are there, but it comes from that culture and from that innovation that you can drive within your organisation. It's not only about innovation, it's also about opening up to wider customer bases. Once you start thinking about how you serve broader customers because you have different perspectives within your organisation because you're opening yourselves up to other ways of thinking, then you develop products that have a wider use case. A really great example of this is closed caption subtitles on video streaming platforms. Developed for the deaf community, but loads of other uses that weren't foreseen, people listening in busy environments for example. In my case, it was soothing, a very grumpy baby back to sleep in the middle of the night. And those subtitles really helped me stay awake. So you're opening up to a broader customer base and there are lots and lots of examples of that. So it's not just about innovation and creativity, but it's also about all of the people that you could reach that you're not reaching today. Now, we understand that, right? It's good for business. But this can't be a side of desk thing. This can't be Jess's little passion project that she sometimes does when she hasn't got a million other things to do because I don't know about you, but I always have a million things to do. The passion projects and the side of desk things don't tend to get the priority that we maybe like them to have. So you've got to prioritise this. You've got to make this part of your strategy. The most successful companies and businesses and products of the future will be the ones that prioritise this. In my team, what does that look like? We have a dedicated team of product inclusion specialists. They work across our department to upskill our product managers and to introduce guidelines and changes to make our products truly inclusive. Whether they're customer-facing, whether they're for our employees, it's all part of the same piece. For me, that's really important. We have full-time employees who are developing this. That is very clear. That is showing our intention of what we want from this and how important it is to us. So it makes business sense to prioritise it. It has to be lived to succeed. OK. We can get a diverse team. We can get all sorts of different people around a table. That is the start. We need that. But if you don't create an inclusive culture where everybody feels that their voice can be heard, then you will never get the potential from that group. You will never unleash the power that is there within your team. Not only that, we can consider ourselves to be diverse. My story that I told, I was the only woman there. But I'm still white. So there are other perspectives that I can learn about, despite the fact I might be different from other people. So we need to open our eyes and experience different perspectives. We need to challenge ourselves, because it's natural as human beings to make quick judgments. It's just in us. It's innate. And there's a good reason for that in our biology, but we don't need that now, and that's not what our job is. We need to get uncomfortable. We need to ask ourselves a question. Are these long-held beliefs still true? Are these things that society told me true? Are we making assumptions about people because of the context we see them in, or the way that society views people?  More than once. And I'm sure that you've got your own examples. So we've got to challenge that. Maybe you know this. Einstein, pretty famous, pretty revolutionary in the world of science, graduated bottom of his class at university, couldn't speak at the age of five. Demonstrated traits that today we might consider neurodiverse. We need to ask ourselves, what are the stereotypes that we believe and are they right? And are we getting close to that? And no matter what our position is, we've got to get uncomfortable with that. A great way of doing that is by getting close to your customers or your potential customers. And I absolutely love that. It's one of my favourite things to do. Only last week I was at one of our customer service centres up in Sunderland, talking to customers, hearing their complaints, hearing their feedback, doing chat, talking to colleagues. It's really invigorating. If you live in London and you're really, really lucky, then you might find me on your doorstep, fully in the Just Eat takeaway orange with a pizza or whatever your takeaway of choice is, because I love to get on the bike, get out there, experience the product. Yes, that is me, Burger King Leicester Square. Thank you for having me. I did a whole shift there and I learnt so much. And I really, really encouraged you all to do the same. In fact, this is so important to me that within Just Eat takeaway we have developed a programme called Jet Meats. And that enables every single person in product and engineering to go out on these types of visits and to share their learnings. And we are seeing great feedback from this and people are learning a lot. It's challenging their perceptions. It's sparking seeds of creativity and we're seeing accelerated change as a result of it. You've got to live this. And this becomes even more important the more senior you get. Harvard Business Review did a study and what they found is that empathy reduces as rank increases. So as you take on more senior roles in your businesses, your empathy decreases. Take a moment to think about that. You've got to lean into it. You've got to be aware of these things and that's why going out meeting people is so important. It has to be recognised. We're all product people here. One thing we know about products is we're always searching to create that habit, the habit that makes people come back, the habit that makes people want to use our product, the habit. If we want to affect that change in our culture, if we want inclusion to be something that just happens rather than a project or a special focus, then we've got to recognise it. Now, that can take many forms. It can be metrics, you know, measure what matters, that changes behaviour. But also just recognising it. I talked about our jet meets. When our colleagues go on the jet meets, they come back, they do blog posts, they talk to their teams, they do talks for the department to share what they've learnt. And we love that because we love celebrating the fact that people are taking the time to go and do that. We recognise when people are going above and beyond. We recognise when people are making great inclusive decisions. We recognise when people are building inclusive culture within their teams. Because we're trying to build something that is part of our ways of working without even thinking about it. That becomes part of our processes as a result of that. Because only then can we really unleash the power, which is what we're all searching for. Only then can we really access all of that potential. Because if we're not doing those things, if it's not part of our culture, then really we don't have the engagement we want. The voices aren't heard, and we all start to think the same way and do the same things. So it has to be recognised. Another thing we do in our team to help with recognising this is we have a monthly focus on different topics within the diversity and inclusion space, especially with my leadership team and my broader leadership team. That just creates that front-of-mind thinking.  Because it's front-of-mind then. It's a topic that we keep coming back to. It's part of our agenda. It's not something that we only do every now and then, or when a particular incident happens and we think, oh my goodness, I'm going to do something about this. No, it's there all the time. So, three steps. None of them are difficult, really. None of them are rocket science. But these are the learnings of my time as a leader. And these are the things that make the difference. So remember, it makes business sense but you've got to prioritise it. It has to be lived to succeed. Hear those voices. It has to be recognised. Make it a way of working. Make it a habit. Successful companies of the future. Successful products of the future. Successful leaders of the future. No. That diversity and inclusive culture and a sense of belonging are critical. They are the strategic building blocks of success and they are becoming ever more important. The world is becoming more diverse and so must we. Thank you.


Good morning, John! It is Friday! Good morning, Hank! I was very good.  I can do this all day! You're core! So, John, you have been talking to me about Crown Hill Cemetery for a long time, highest point in Indianapolis. America's greatest cemetery. The most vice president's per square mile anywhere in the US. True. As long as you count dead ones. So, here's what we decided to do. I was like, let's go epitaph hunting. Yeah. And then we will reconvene and share the best epitaphs. If you have the money to spare a few extra words onto your tombstone, I think it adds a lot. Yeah. Even just one. Bananas. I want to start with this guy here, Hank Stan Molyse. He died in 2012 and his tombstone is a tennis net and it says Game Set Match. Because that's when it's over. That's when it's all over. Is he a tennis player? He was not only a tennis player, he was a professional tennis player. He owned the magnet company that designed magnets for the Apollo mission that were instrumental magnets to the Apollo mission. Mooning. Oh, to a moon arrival. To America's mooning. Yes, Hank, I'm sure you recalled Neil Armstrong's first words upon landing on the moon. Yeah. I am mooning. Let us moon. We did it, Buzz. We're mooning. What is that? Is that your, are you mooning? Yeah, he's mooning. Now, what is your understanding of the verb to moon? Walk upon the moon. Oh, okay. This one was weird. Laughter is the best medicine. Why are you on this planet? I mean, it's very funny. And it's like, I don't know, man. Great question. I found a similarly inscrutable one. The sober one is currently on tour. You will always remain in our hearts forever. The sober one is currently on tour. The first part sounds like an artificial intelligence is right. Does it? John, this one on the back in quotation marks just says, I'm all right. I'm all right. While we're talking about ones that are lovely. He filled his niche and accomplished his task. He left the world better than he found it. That's nice. I think it's lovely. We've talked about good ones. I think we should talk about some bad ones. Uh-huh. Beginning with this guy, Ebenezer Dumont. My criticism is that he's obviously a very accomplished person. He has listed way too many accomplishments. The font gets too small, and so you end up, you can't even read all the things that he did. You've got to pick a couple things like Benjamin Harrison, who was president of the United States, picked a couple of things. It says lawyer and publicist, which it turns out meant something different then. Yeah, it seems like a weird thing to pick out. Like, I was a lawyer and also I helped people get into us weekly. Back then it meant like a person concerned with or expert in issues of the public. I am very fond of the idea that even the things we etch in stone are not necessarily etched in stone. I'd like this one. To live in the hearts of others is not to die. These days, mausoleums cost like what houses cost. They don't do them anymore. Very rarely. The last one was the Bane one. Oh my god, the Bane one. Can we talk about it? It's on the hill where the fancy people are buried. It's a very normal looking mausoleum. Uh-huh. It's got a nice little walk. It's got a walkway. It's a lot of space. A lot of space. It's open. It's very neoclassical. And I've always just walked past it and thought like, that's a mausoleum. Hank Green, ever curious, walks up to the edge of the mausoleum. And what is inside is truly astonishing. I'm sorry that I couldn't get better footage of it than this. And more power to him. Absolutely. Add the whimsy. Yeah. I mean it's such an odd place because of course it is very somber. Yeah. And there is a lot of sadness there. But there is also room for that. Thank you for taking me there. Thank you for showing me around. You're becoming a legitimate tour guide of Crown Hill. Well now that I- Maybe that'll be your job eventually. Oh gosh, someday. John, I'll see you now. Bye.


new product for the new year. Happy new year. New products. All right. New products. First up. Yeah. It's a benchyometer. This is an alpha, Taiwan, right angle, 5k linear panel mount, inchometer. I know it's a lot, but we're actually gonna carry a bunch of different alpha pots. And this is like the first one of the series. It's a right angle pot. A lot of people use these and stuff like synthesizers and mixers and all kinds of projects. 5k linear, you know, we already have a 1k, 10k, I think 100k linear pots from alpha. So we're just going to add a lot more. So starting with this 5k, it's a nice little pensionometer. The pin spacing is 0.2 inches. You can use it on a breadboard if you like. It's a very fun pot. Next up, we have what I call the shortest USB A to USB C cable. This little thing is handy because it turns anything into a trinket. If you have a computer with a USB A port, plug it aside and now you can plug a board with a USB C socket on it into it. And it's like an instant connection because USB C is reversible. You don't have to worry about like what if the board's upside down because it can always be reversed the other way around. So it's kind of a nice little adapter shown here with a laptop.  But I think very handy for dev boards where you want to turn them into little pluggy thing. But they don't come with a pluggy thing. All right. And we finally got these as a dog. They're here. Yeah, we got these. You know what they're called like a meditation box or sometimes a prayer box machine. Yeah. These are often hacked. People will use the cases or they do circuit. Circuit bending circuit bending. Thank you on the I've talked to I even took a photo of the PCB on the inside so you know what you're getting. Or you can meditate to them. They are kind of cool. We all needed that. Next step. Yeah, we definitely don't need that. This will help you relax. Next up. It's the CP 2102 friend. This is an update basically for our CP 2104 friend, which was an update of our FTDI friend. Basically, it's a USB serial converter chip on a breakout with all the pins on the side broken out. And then the end is like an FTDI cable and it's basically this power ground data RTS and CTS combo like six pin connector that's often used in dev boards that need a USB serial converter and maybe a couple control lines, but don't have that built in. So the CP 2102 N is the next generation after CP 2104. And we love the CP 2104. It's a wonderful two megabit per second USB serial converter from side labs. We use it in dozens of boards. However, I know you're about to hear is we can't really get any more CP 2104s. They're proving very difficult to find in the shortage. But we haven't able to get CP 2102s. And so they're almost but not quite pin compatible. And for that reason, we want to start with making a breakout because this is USB C. One thing that's different is that it does have up to three megabit per second, not two megabit per second. So it can go a little bit faster than the CP 2104. The onboard e prime can be reprogrammed. Whereas on the CP 2104 it's a one time programmable. So there is a purpose for having two different breakouts for this board. But basically we're kind of trying to get this out to have an option for people who can't get the CP 2104 and also to experiment with this chip before we do a swap out of all of our other breakout boards from the four, the two. That said, it's a perfectly fine FTDI replacement and it's got USB C RX and TX LEDs. It's got all the pins broken out. So if you need all those, you know, weirdo modem controlled lines like ring or DTR or let's see what else DCD, you know, you need those pins. This breakout has them. Alright, next up. Next up is by request. A lot of people asked us to make a MCP 23017 breakout. Now we carry the chip for the MCP 23017 and honestly, I've just been using the chip all this time. But I do see the benefit of having a breakout where you know, the pull ups are set up for you and there's the capacitors and you know, everything's kind of aligned quite nicely. So this little breakout has an MCP 23017. It's a 16 channel GPIO expander that you can control over I squared C. So it has 16 GPIO labeled a zero through a seven B zero through B seven. And each one can be an output and it can drive or sync 25 milliamps of current. So it's good for LEDs and stuff like that. It can also be inputs. And the inputs can have pull ups enabled. So good for buttons as well. So it's kind of like a nice general purpose GPIO expander. When I think about the MCP 23017 is it's like kind of old, like it's a well established known chip. There's drivers for it all over the place. It's used so often. And this breakout is semi QT compatible. So you can plug it into I squared C very easily. On the bottom are three I squared C address jumpers. And so you can have up to eight of these on one bus they use I think address 20 o x 20 to o x 27. It's going to lots of GPIO but it's it's a nice just reliable, non weird GPIO expander. A lot of GPIO expanders have some weird thing going on. This one does not. It's really normal. So it's a it's a nice, easy 16 GPIO plug and play with I squared C. Alright, next up big deal stars show tonight besides you Lady Aida, our team, our community, our customers. Everyone hanging out in chat tonight is the the the the the first the last part we manufactured in 2021 and the first product we're releasing out of 2022 is the ESP 32 s 2 TFT feather. So we basically took a 1.14 inch color TFT display and slapped it onto our feather ESP 32 s 2 to give you a Wi Fi micro controller board based on the ESP 32 s 2 with native USB two megabytes of PS RAM, four megabytes of flash. It's got a lot of capability, a lot of speed and it's got this color TFT display and you can see I also have a little neopixel up top and a stomach UT port so you can plug and play I squared C reset and boot button. It's went through a couple different redesigns due to part shortages and etc etc. But you know if you want something that's just ready to go and has a display, you can even use the you know the boot button as an input so you might be able to do even some simple projects that just need like one button and a display and I scored C, you know, plug for external sensors to the expanders. Let me see if this one comes up. Okay, so here you go. So the demo I will say it's like oh you have a battery. I don't have a bad the the there's a battery monitoring chip. And you have a plugged into an actual plug thing. Now I know. Yeah. There you go. Okay, that's nice and sharp. Um, no, no, I think I pressed something. Hold on. Live demo could be my fault because I um I had moved the power supply over there. I think yeah. Sorry about that. Hold on. Let me just give me one moment. All right. While Lady Ada is uh getting another cable thing here. Yeah, I think that's my bad. I had to move stuff around folks. So while we're uh waiting, admire the photos. Oh yeah, you don't have a cable. Everything everything's been moved. We did a lot of cleaning but um I think we're gonna I think we're gonna stick with the photos then. Let me stick with the photos and um actually let me just go to go to the overhead so I can point out things. Yeah. Apologies. I think I unplugged the uh the USB cable. Um okay. So I've got USB-C uh battery input and you can see here's the stem IQT port. Um you can plug in vertical. There you go. Um you can plug in uh vertically so you can have I squared C um sensors and expanders. Reset and reset and boot buttons, color TFT display. It's all feather compatible. Of course, you wouldn't want to plug a feather um on top of it like a feathering on top of it but you could use a doubler or you could stack this on top of I'm gonna try this other. I think something I think that power supply is dead because the power lines it. It's okay. It happens. Um everything everything got shifted around here. Uh on the bottom we've got um an ESP 32 um S2 mini with four megabytes of flash, two megabytes of PS RAM. Um all the passives for monitoring the battery. There's an LC 709203. Um and that's a I squared C ultra low power battery monitoring that does like um voltage and not cool them counting but it like kind of tracks the voltage. You just tell it the capacity of the battery and it'll automatically um it'll automatically tell you the percentage and voltage of the battery so you can like track the percentage and not have to do the the math to convert like 3.7 volts to whatever and there's also a second regulator. Um the second regulator is used to um uh uh disable power um from the I squared C or TFT display so you can do like ultra low power usage because I think that could be uh you know more people are trying to use our boards for low power and I I thought um I had time with this one to to because I had to redesign it doing due to the um component shortage um so you can turn off the TFT power and the power to the I squared C port and get down to like 8200 um micro amperes which is about as low as you can get in deep sleep when using an ESP 32 S2 um and still have like you know the regulator and then of course in uh a lighter sleep like a sleep where you want to it was in execution I think it's about one milliamp um so overall pretty um full featured boards it sounds like the most stuff it's uh double sided um so again you know you you don't want to put a feather on top I recommend like a doubler or something with this if you want to add um more hardware but this is also great for a breadboard because go overhead you can um use it on a breadboard and have the TFT display um and um you know plug it in and it'll the the height of all the components on the bottom isn't higher than um the header spacer so that's kind of what I recommend it to be used for um but otherwise it's basically just like a feather ESP 32 S2 with a high speed TFT display and for circuit python it's great because you'll have um the wrap will show up on the TFT when you plug it in and that's new products
