Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright; The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light, And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout; But there is no joy in Mudville — mighty Casey has struck out. -

Fortunately, reclassifying network operators as common carriers doesn’t change or affect one way or the other whether the government is involved in the internet. The US government after all invented the internet as ARPANET 46 years ago, with the initial message transmitted across it in 1969. And also fortunately, the US government has announced plans to relinquish ADMINISTRATION of the internet already, for reference see this article in the Washington Post from last March.
It’s a really great thing to reclassify network operators as common carriers because (depending on the details of the rules, which we’ve heard hints about but have not yet seen) this should require them to operate in reasonable and nondiscriminatory ways.

I think that’s because Nic is more known for what he doesn’t say than what he does say. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxAWhiE75Og beginning at 6:33.

For another perspective on how to connect a Raspberry Pi to data.sparkfun.com, praveen wrote a nice article entitled Raspberry Pi Pushing Data to the SparkFun Server.

Dia, in Lou’s rundown, he mentions a video, and even helpfully provides a link to the video, but the link is broken. Do you still have that?

‘Wide’ means ‘high’ in this case. So a strip 12" or 24" high across the back of the bench.
No public wish lists :(
