Even more specifically, it was MSN + NBC.

Fun fact - Hobbes eventually lost those little paw pads

Reading some of the compendiums with Watersons commentary are a really interesting look into how things changed over the years and an insight into comic publishing

Sounds like a much more substantial runaway truck ramp

(fyi, hare-brained... like a hare)

Depends on how far you go back with the language. https://grammarphobia.com/blog/2013/10/harebrained-hairbrain...

And (several times previously on HN), Flock and other ALPR cameras are mappable too.

The rack of cards at Target costs more than $1/ea sadly: https://www.target.com/b/yoto/-/N-q643lentif4

Sheesh. Surely you could build that device for like $15, though I guess all the money would go into the speaker quality. Maybe it sounds amazing.

Looks like a homebrew Yoto

Yoto is genuinely one of the most underrated pieces of tech. 10/10 for me.

We have a Yoto, too. We got it for my three-year-old and he listens to pretty often. My 1-year-old found it recently and I'm surprised at how much he likes engaging with it, too.

Yeah. We love our Yoto but I also can’t hook up Spotify streaming to Yoto cards, so this post is a very inspired way to bring back the “purpose” behind collecting the music.

I think a workaround to the Spotify issue with Yoto would be proxying a Spotify account through a raspberry pi or lightweight cloud vm. The Yoto cards themselves point to playlists in yoto’s cloud, and the playlists can link to files or stream URIs.

Yeah, we have a Yoto, and it's great. But their custom cards are pretty expensive. And, let's face it, I wanted a weekend project :)

You can use bulk nfc cards from China. I got like 50 cards for five bucks or so. Taking them into use is a bit more laborious (you have to record an official card first and then duplicate the tag to a bulk card), but considering the price is a no brainer.

oh cool, thanks.

Your project is super cool and really well executed. Thanks for sharing. I’ve had success with cheap blank NFC cards instead of the official MyYo York cards. I have a quick breakdown in my recent comment history if you’re curious.

thank you!

HN is no place for chicanery.

Yeah! let's Make Everglades Zug Island Again!

I've just picked up a fault in the AE-35 unit. It's going to go 100% failure within 72 hours.

This is how the F-35 works.
