This one's actually a little old, as it got stuck in the to-publish queue, but still very neat: a 3D-printed isomorphic Hall-effect velocity-sensitive MIDI keyboard powered by an Espressif ESP32. The demo video's worth a watch!

"Lay It Down" by Ratt
Listen on Apple Music (https://music.apple.com/us/album/lay-it-down/1727216760?i=1727217036)
I really don't know why, but I've had this song in the back of my head for well over a week or so now. It just randomly keeps popping to the front of my head and I start singing it. I've listened to it several times during the week, but yet it's still there, though I definitely can't explain why. At least it's a good song though.

As a serious lover of #music, I've been enjoying videos by The Charismatic Voice, a trained opera singer analysing all sorts of music. But...
I was watching a video she did 4 years ago about a live performance of Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd. I noticed many comments about interrupting the David Gilmour solo. I bailed out of the video when she paused a magnificent piece of guitar music for the 4th time to talk about the lights and the venue.
NEVER interrupt a David Gilmour solo!
It's Tuesday afternoon here.
It's cold outside, so I'm already home.
Relaxing with some music.

Heeeyyy Fedi!!! I have a question that I *know* a bunch of you are going to be able to answer.
For the past couple decades I've wanted an electric guitar, but my ex always shot it down. So, now that I've escaped that abusive relationship, and with it nearing the holidays again, I've decided I'm going to finally get one.
Last time I played guitar was in middleschool (and some bass in highschool), so I'm starting from scratch.
My constraints:
- 6 string electric guitar
- under $200
- used/hand me down is great
- pink would be awesome
- probably right-handed (because that's what I learned on)
Does anyone have a recommendation (or better yet, an old guitar near Seattle that could use the sweet, sweet love of a new owner?)
I looked at Amazon (🤢) and found something that seems like it fits my needs, but I hate supporting them, *and* I have no idea if it's garbage or not.

Closed
Alan Freed is a radio DJ who is responsible for giving rock and roll a big push in the 50s. He did these tours with bands who were making music in the then-emerging style. He even helped to popularize the term “rock and roll.”
He also worked hard to create a convergence of teenage music fans across the racial divide.
“Alan Feed the waves as much as Lincoln freed the slaves” is a lyric from a Public Enemy song.
