however, sadly the thing is behaving as though the button on its forehead is stuck, so it can't actually shut off and stay off. so now the batteries are removed while I decide what to do with it.
there's at least one report of zinc whiskers forming causing the same symptoms https://www.reddit.com/r/furby/comments/1hn3vk8/fixed_2023_purple_furby_heart_button_not_working/
also I've found documentation of multiple teardown attempts that quickly descended into "fuck it, I'm not putting this thing back together again", which doesn't inspire confidence
however, the design of the electronics is quite modular, so while structurally the internals are a hot mess, hypothetically affixing the peripherals to a different micro controller is likely to be within my skill set. I'm not sure what I can realistically fit in there, but maybe I can fashion a little backpack for it to wear with its new brain in it. I'm leaning toward that solution so I can just use a regular sized rpi or that riscv beaglebone I've got in a drawer and call it a day

so I've decided rather than do something reasonable like try to send it back for a replacement, I'm gonna see if I can stuff mollytime into its corpse.
I give this project decent odds of ending up on the bone pile unfinished, but you miss every shot you don't take.

also a friend had a really good idea which is that I should amass a collection of adam west batman soundbites to chop up to give it a new voice so it just randomly says stuff like "some days you just can't get rid of a bomb"

@aeva "Good grammar is essential, Robin."
"Noble of that animal to hurl himself into the path of that final torpedo."
"This money goes to building better roads. We all must do our part."
"A boy of your age is not allowed in a drinking tavern." which combos with
"They may be drinkers, Robin, but they're also human beings"
"Language is the key to world peace."ofc
"The Penguin and I have a score to settle."
is a fantastic line to put in a Furby -

@_elena What if the dumbing down of the population is the intention... dumb people are very easy to control and #AI is a system that can permanently alter what they believe is reality itself.
If you teach your child to read for pleasure and to be a critical thinker, they will be leaps and bounds above all their AI brainwashed peers. A lion amongst sheep.

@marquisdegeek You should get a limo ro something.

@matz @GustavinoBevilacqua
Anni fa ci fermarono e scoprimmo che la patente di @Fabio (che era alla guida) era scaduta. Se non ci fossi stato io a poter guidare al posto suo, avrebbero dovuto sequestrare l'auto con tanto di contravvenzione, ritiro patente e accompagnamento a casa del socio.
Furono particolarmente magnanimi, niente multa, niente ritiro patente, semplice scambio di autisti...Che dire, è vero che la madonna di Pompei vuol bene a tutti i ghei... 🤪🤪

"[...] Lo evidenzierebbe la proposta di bilancio per il 2026-2028 presentato dal Cremlino alla Duma. Bilancio che alloca il 38% di tutta la spesa federale alla difesa e alla sicurezza interna, un livello record.[...]"
Il 38% della spesa federale...
è un peccato che i pacifisti russi non siano liberi di protestare, perché motivi ne avrebbero.

@informapirata@mastodon.uno 🤣
Nello specifico, i bot normali:
- Non possono autonomamente entrare in gruppi o canali, devono essere aggiunti da amministratori (e io non posso chiedere in giro a persone che manco conosco di aggiungere un certo mio bot solo perché io col mio account non posso entrare)
- Nei gruppi, non possono vedere messaggi di altri bot
- Non hanno una cronologia di messaggi nel cloud, quindi si, in effetti per usarli quelli vanno agganciati ad un software che fa bridge, altrimenti perdi tutto... ma ecco il bonus:
- Tutti i software che fanno bridge di messaggi da Telegram, specialmente con bot non-user, hanno problemini minori... funzionano, ma non granché

> penso tu lo sappia ma nel dubbio te lo ricordo...
Hai fatto bene a ricordarmelo, perché al momento non ricordavo neanche se io sapessi o meno di questa cosa
