“The 2026 United Nations Climate Change Conference or Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC, more commonly known as COP31, is being held at the Expo Center in Antalya, Turkey, from 9 to 20 November 2026. It is the 31st session of the United Nations Climate Change Conference, part of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).”

And this event has an entirely AI slop website. This is literally the proof that these bullshit conferences never try to accomplish what they claim. I’m so ashamed of my country.

    Just for the fun of it I’d love to own a flipdot display of some usable resolution. I would probably want to build one myself, though, the ones sold make a terrible sound when flipping multiple pixels at the same time.

      I love that sound. But building one from scratch is probably really fun. Power management and cooling might be issues though.

        Well, if I want to use it as a party trick and make my friends watch Shrek on it, the sound would probably get very annoying after the first 5 minutes.

          Here is an idea: Make it show Bad Apple but also the flipping sounds make the melody. Not sure if that’s possible though, but probably possible. :)

              By static if you mean every modul has the same fixed mechanic, it wouldn’t be possible. If they could be controlled individually, then maybe. I don’t know how flipdot screens work, so it was just an idea.
