Yep. Visa and Mastercard are one of those evil monopolies that silently hold the entire world by the balls. Just look at what happens when they donāt like someone: they can simply decide to cut them out of the electronic payment loop and thereās basically no recourse. Rothschild was right all along
Amazing that such companies are allowed to hold so much power. Iām still wondering when a judge is gonna pull a Sherman on those guys - and a few others, like Google. Iām guessing theyāve grown so big and powerful theyāre essentially unstoppable.
Google is honestly really well structured to dodge anti-trust lawsuits, the guys at Alphabet absolutely knew what they were doing when they āsplit Google upā into ādistinctā work units.
Amazon is the one Iād bet money on getting slapped around with anti-trust lawsuits first.

4 x Solid State Relay control all of them via i2C Each relay rated to 40A @ 28-380 VAC
The Qwiic system is really nice. They basically put an ATTINY84 on a variety of hardware modules and set it up as an I2C slave with a programmable address. They also have some proprietary connectors to wire as many of these modules together as possible, but they leave the breakout pins available for soldering.
I was doing a access control project with their Qwiic Quad Relay board that used mechanical relays a few months ago, and pointed out some technical defects that caused random relays not to fire in some units. They said they were making a revision to the board to fix it, maybe this is it.
Can somebody in 'Murrica please have a word with your president about this Covid19 situation; It is very inconvenient, I was supposed to be in Las Vegas today!!!
