This week I’ve driven 1600Km through Europe using an #EV (Ioniq 5) and electric charging was… fine.
Ionity and Fastned networks worked great, and usually recharged the car quicker than it took me to get coffee/snacks/etc.

I've taken one to two breaks from social media before, and maybe should do so more regularly. But I cut myself off on Saturday, and I think I'll try making a Saturday break from social media a regular thing. 🤔

Woke up this morning wondering how many "fail" or "try not to laugh" video compilations I'd have been in by now if I were growing up today. I'm sure one of my many mishaps would've made it to the interwebs.

Except security cameras maybe. There weren't any at the time, but probably there are now.

Anyway, this made me more interested in reading up on Helios, and I stumbled across a site that has collected a lot of documentation on Transputers (including Helios) in case any others are interested:
