The song came out in '97. Either that is a really deep song, or you may need some help with your German...

Oh, my moment! This song has some nice lore, here's the Wikipedia article.

The song was released in 1998 and was a big hit in India, reaching the West in the 2000s where it quickly became one of the OG memes.

Even back then, at least by the time the song reached the West, the CG graphics were already considered awful, and still the song was so catchy that it didn't matter.

It turns out that this was the whole point. Mehndi was already a big name in India, but was criticized for always using "an overabundance" of beautiful dancing women in his videos, and that this was the only reason he was popular.

He then recorded this video, featuring only himself, and grabbed another Indian #1 hit...

I was being fuel conscious. My initial thought was for the perigee to be within the sun's radius.

I would suggest Mercury, just to be on the safe side.

Let's stop beating around the bush, shall we?

Pig cheese is apparently tasty.

I like this. Fill it with $1 bills

You clearly underestimate my ability to run headfirst into something. It's like a superpower really.

Fun idea!

Also, how about a bowling ball that's Trump's head, and the bowling pins are public institutions, the scales of justice, the constitution, etc.

The one throwing the ball needs to wear a Musk facemask. You can include other billionaires for diversity.

How beautiful! Such a loving relationship, even the bystanders get fucked.

We don't kink-shame here, they can ride Trump all they want.

Go crank that hog, brothers!

Without the comments, which add nothing of value in this case:

 

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to control a "dumb" led light strip segment with an ESP-01S. This is fairly low current, the strip will pull 150mA-200mA max (depends on... artistic? needs).

I have two NPN transistors (2N2222), one to control the 12V supply to the white "channel" and the other the red+blue (don't need the green).

I had to pull-down the gates as I had some flickering, and it works perfectly if I manually connect the GPIOs after the ESP-01S boots.

The ESP will boot if I have the RX pin (GPIO03) pulled down on boot, but not if I pull down any of the others.

I'm not smart enough to come up with a way to have that extra pin I need to be high only during boot, while the gate it's attached to needs to be pulled down...

Any thought, other than getting something with more IO pins?
