the one addition that truly makes this clip even more powerful is knowing that Mr Sterling is this guy:

I am in awe trying to imagine the sheer levels of non sequiturs they would be able to produce together.

Sometimes when I be eating food I save a piece that I think would be a real good bite.

And then I get to that piece after I eat everything else and it was in fact. Not that good of a bite :[

technically low stakes gambling but in the moment it feels like extremely high stakes gambling.

snakes really make you appreciate how gross mammals really are. squamates are very dry and clean

a bird is a kind of reptile that has learned to be yucky.

Hidden PCB silkscreen art

Slide 2 of 2

What you're looking at is a subtle artistic inside joke within the world of electrical and hardware engineering.

During the design process of PCB's, engineers have to map out the board's silkscreen (aka the nonconductive layer of apoxy ink, typically in white, black or yellow, that is used to indicate components, design, and test points). This is an essential part of circuit board building that is an integral part of the design process, serving as essentially a communicative manual to anyone servicing it, or something fun to find for teardowns. Think of it as a medical diagram to the board's meat and bones. It is layered on top of the solder mask which in turn protects the copper of the board from corrosion.

Many designers opt to put hidden messages, symbols or popculture references within the leftover/non-essential spaces as a fun way to connect them to their work. It's a piece of the artist within the art, and acts as a fun little real life easter egg to anyone brave enough to open up the tech housing it.

They don't serve any functional purpose to the board, but they sure are cool :)

it makes me sick how much the automobile industry shapes and permeates everything around it. i’m often sitting here daydreaming and romanticizing the idea of a cross-country/state roadtrip. in a vehicle. constantly letting Big Car win in various ways

greelin

like “ouuughh let’s go drive around in a car and stop in various places. but this time for vacation and not just like we have to do in daily life” FUCK OFF ‼️‼️‼️‼️ get a grip

Steam. Is. Water. Coal. Makes. Smoke.

being as i am an idiot, and having been one my whole life, i just wanna say that i find it very easy to do nothing, and go nowhere. i eat chocolate late at night in the dark. i stand in the garden also. and i’m often waiting for something to happen. and i’m stupid.
