Someone had way too much of a budget for these trash cans.
Yes, those are 3 separate displays, each running a React App in Chromium served from localhost. They show looping animations of what goes in each bin.
It’s gonna be awhile before I accuse myself of over-engineering something again.

I picked up a dog crate in preparation for taking our lab on a flight. It’s been years since he was in a crate, and he is loving it. He’s been in it from the minute I got it inside and he is choosing to sleep in it instead of his bed.

I was conflicted the other day. Curious what others would do.
At a light in town next to a 2000s minivan with temp tags. Back window is busted out and covered in a trash bag. Mom driving, Dad in front seat bouncing an infant on his lap. 4-year-old walking around in the back. All happy and laughing.

Scoop: I obtained a confidential presentation outlining how a major conservative think tanks plans to go after volunteer editors on Wikipedia who it says are "abusing their position" and promoting antisemitism
