What If Your Electronic Parts Were More Like Legos? (electricdollarstore.com)

Long-time Slashdot reader beckman101 writes: This week Electric Dollar Store opened its doors, selling interchangeable postage-stamp sized I2C-based modules for prices between $1.00 and $1.80. The modules include lights, buzzers, counters and sensors — the range is aimed at electronic makers. These aren't manufacturing rejects shipping from Asia — they're assembled, tested and shipped from a small farming town in California, where winter labor is cheap.

All the code for the project is BSD licensed.

The project is a spin-off from the popular open-source I2CDriver hardware debugger.

Of the thirty-some indictments, a few resulted in guilty pleas, a few folks have been sentenced to prison, for crimes ranging from process crimes (lying to an investigator about a meeting the investigator has a transcript of, for example) or cheating on your taxes years before the election, and over two dozen "never gonna result in convictions" charges against Russians that spewed misinformation on the internet.

Wow. Don't see any collusion. Don't see Obstruction of Justice.

Democrats think meeting with a woman that offers opposition research on Hillary is collusion with a foreign state, yet see no issue with funneling campaign money to a law firm, mis-reporting that payment as for "legal advice", and having the lawyers hire a research firm, which in-turn hires a former foreign intelligence officer who in-turn meets with and pays officials in the Kremlin for opposition research on Hillary's opponent Trump.

Apparently opposition research from foreign sources is only illegal if they offer it for free - by paying for it, it suddenly becomes "OK".

Got it.
