No tongue though.

Did you know that female mantis eat males?

No one wants that, Jim.

I like to minimise pain and distress to other creatures that can feel pain

Not true. If you were trying to minimise, you would stop preaching. It is a real pain to read someone mistakenly believing his morals are better than others.

I am not your light, sweetheart.

Well, veganism can be either - a dietary choice (non preaching vegans) or a religion (preaching ones who consider themselves somehow more moral than omnivores).

Just a really daft one - other religions at least usually worship some divine entities, not pigs and cows.

I am not raging against anything. I am calling it useless and ridiculous because it is useless and ridiculous.

… And I am not your pal, mate.

Hardware was designed first, and then they applied software.

You don’t need to redesign a hardware. It is software which needs redesigning, within the existing hardware.

Read again.

And I am not your dude, pal.

Read again. Slowly.

I am not. I said it was ridiculous and led to nowhere with software being much better solution. Suddenly multiple people felt offended by this simple statement of fact.

This is cutdown hardware leading to simplified and cutdown software as it’s a necessity here.

I strongly disagree. Spyware, bloatware, forced updates etc are a function of profit driven choice, not the necessity.

Why does the end product of an electronics learning project need to be useful? Or any hobby project?

So we agree it is useless? OK.

I wonder how many fucking morons will try to defend this idiocy. Congratulations, you are on the level of 5y/o and so is the creator of this useless junk.

I wouldn’t consider it reinventing the wheel

I do. What they are trying to create already exists. What is really needed is non intrusive software rather than hardware.

My son put a lego car toghther yesterday. Look, a hobby prototype! 🙄

many people call you useless,

You must be thinking about your parents and yourself.

Someone: makes something completely and utterly useless.

Internet people: voice justified criticism.

Half wits: “how dare you criticise the creators!”

I think they’re having more fun making it than looking for a perfect solution.

Possibly, thus my point - reinventing the wheel.
