Why would you ask ME how I feel about Jira?

At last, my bathroom door is complete.

Price history graph for a pretty good logitech webcam, nov thru present. Price went from a stable USD50-60 to a peak of $290.

I feel bad throwing out the box, but...

Am I the only one who sees a UX problem with this signup form?

The thing I miss most about Livejournal is my massive collection of profile photos. I had apparently amassed 114 of them before I left the service. Downloaded them all one day, so i'd have backups.

I've thrown about a thousand dollars into the stock market, via Robinhood, over the past five years. It's done upsettingly well under trump, because he pushes policies that make wall street investors (aka "the economy") happy. But it's all bullshit and unsustainable. I'm hoping maybe that bubble has finally burst. but I don't think so.

By chance, are there any small, cheap SBCs with composite video _input_? I've got a box of these ancient b&w camera modules I'd like to turn into webcams.
