I played Superliminal on and off throughout the day, so today's drawing is inspired by it.
Also it turned out to be a bit more tricky to draw than I thought, because, well,
I wasn't wearing my glasses

LBT¹: Everyone in the know agrees, it’s time to plan your #Arduino exit. Need help? My day job is helping folk select technology, free advice for fedi friends, paid advice links in bio.

Arduino / Qualcomm is like Eagle / Autodesk dejavue for me. Next step will be closed source bootloaders and IDEs. Qualcomm don't care for Arduino and Open Source, they just want to ride Arduino community to compete with Qualcomm / Raspberry pi. Arduino is doomed. Hope Arduino team sold out for good money. They did amazing jobs with the years, but this closed source money driven corporation will just chew and spit them in few years. #arduino #qualcomm #broadcom #raspberrypi #opensource

If you've been working in the #Arduino ecosystem, it's probably time to check out #Zephyr OS. Under the banner of the Linux foundation, Zephyr is a free platform that won't be bought out from underneath you. (It's so good, that even Arduino announced they were adopting it, after their previous high-end-device platform choice died of Capitalism).
HMU if you want some pointers, Here's me a few years back talking about Zephyr: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxsLPh5dF_s

Everyone with an Arduino project has, starting as of NOW, six months to look for a replacement.
If you don't start right away, I can point out someone who will be in a lot of pain in a few months.
Believe me...
I know this will play merry hell with the 3d printer and mechanical keyboard scene. Innumerable hardware will die from this takeover.

The human genome is pleased to announce that it has been acquired by GalactiComm in a transaction involving 56 quadrillion UltraCredits in cash, stock and population indentures. Humanity will remain an independent brand and organisation under the GalactiComm banner and is expected to flourish with access to GalactiComm technologies such as TrueThought and MetaGender. Human leaders will remain in their current roles, designated as GalacticComm vice demi pico presidents.

Let's see what we learn from this case of "Big corporation buys up important open source infrastructure because it's organized as a company". #arduino
If Qualcomm has no chill to screw both MS and Apple with patent BS, what makes you think they'll give two flying f*cks about the hobbyist community around Arduino.
