    Reminds me of Arthur C Clarke's The Light of Other Days. There's a technology in the book that allows anyone to see anything, anywhere, which eliminates all privacy. Society collectively adjusts, e.g. people masturbate on park benches because who gives a shit, people can tune in to watch me shower anyway.

    Although not to the same extreme, I wonder if this could similarly desensitize people: even if it's fake, if you can effectively see anyone naked... what does that do to our collective beliefs and feelings about nakedness?

    I've been on a nostalgia trip reading the Legend of Drizzt series. I'd normally go for fantasy that's darker or verges more on weird fiction, but I read the Drizzt books as a kid and Baldur's Gate 3 made me want to read them again.

    About to finish book 10, I've enjoyed a good amount of them but I am starting to see how Drizzt's plot armor gets old after a while, haha

    I've recently been looking into ESP32 programming - they're microcontrollers with onboard Bluetooth and WiFi, that are smaller yet more powerful than Arduinos. Randomnerdtutorials gets recommended a lot elsewhere; I believe I saw one tutorial for running a web server on an ESP32.

    If you need a full OS and/or more resources, I'm not sure raspberry pi can be beaten (at least, that's how the market was years ago when I was looking)

    I heard these were good for NMZ, so I was like alright I'll have the dwarf guy make a bunch. The animation took forever each time and was such a pain, and it was only in NMZ that I finally realized you can't actually consume them.

    Tonight I went to a book discussion sponsored by LFPL, had a really good time! I initially heard about it at the St Matthews branch, but found a list of events for all libraries across the city (searchable by category too). [You can find LFPL events here](https://events.lfpl.org/events/). Definitely recommend checking them out if you're bored, or looking to get involved in something.
