I heard a knobhead in the pub saying that maybe he's imagining it, but he feels as if he's in a 70s horror film because of the way people stand and glare at his TESLA when he drives it through the village. He's not imagining it. We've got a WhatsApp group.

I look and it’s an ESP32 dev kit of some kind on Amazon.

I open one of my drawers that has a dozen ESP32 dev kits in it and he lights up, “sure here you go!”

He comes back a few seconds later and says, “trouble is, all the projects I’m looking at need breadboards.”

I open a different drawer.
