New idea - use the #Raspberrypi to directly drive parallel Eink displays. Pictured - Kindle 6" 1024x758 34pin panel driven by a RPIZ2W and (one of a kind) custom PCB.

Benefits - the RPI (or any Linux SBC) can create/push the pixels faster than any ESP32. low cost SBC.

They rounded a bunch of random Venezuelans with tats and pretended they were in tren de aragua, then started blowing up random Venezuelan boats they claim “carried drugs,” in order to slowly groom their base into supporting a full ground war on Venezuela that was always about oil
