#SynthSaturday bonus content!

This GILBERT is a relatively simple #analogSynth I built. It’s based around a few classic Roland #synthesizer designs from the late 70s/early 80s.

In the first picture, you can see the controls for the various sub-blocks of the synth, including the VCO and VCF.

The other photos are just fun shots of the guts from while I was building it.

Dozens of tech companies, including major social media firms like Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and TikTok, were asked to hand in a report this month on how they implemented the EU's anti-disinformation charter.

Who didn’t respond? Twitter.

Until the US is safely walkable or bikeable, people will continue to buy urban tanks in self-defense.

Since my kids were three years old, they've known to raise their hand as high as they can and wave it around whenever they hear a car engine start.

Some strangers smile and wave back when they see my kids do this. They think it's cute! But it's not really that cute.

This is a formal portrait of the surviving Apollo astronauts. That's Buzz Aldrin in the silver tux. I have to imagine the conversation went like this:

ALDRIN: Ok, let's get started
PHOTOGRAPH: Mr. Aldrin, you are aware that this is a formal portrait?
BA: I'm not an idiot son.
PG: Well your suit-
BA: Son, have you been to the moon?
PG: No sir.
BA: Well I have. The moon. The motherlovin' moon. In a tin can run by a calculator and powered by a can of sterno. (1/)

@drmaddkap I’ve been in live audiences for two of the Apollo astronauts (all of whom have my respect and admiration).
• Charlie Duke is a great speaker and easy to listen to, and you’d love to have him at your BBQ.
• Buzz got to say whatever he wanted whenever he thought it, the other very professional and Astro/space people just had to let him, then they’d get back to the script. Both were fantastic fun, and I’m glad to have seen them in person.

Oh no, the US military have shot down a UFO over Alaska.
We are going to be hearing about this for decades…
