#I could have put 100 pics on this post to justify everything I mentioned but this is a speedrun for a reason. I’m planning so many

Chilchuck analysis speedrun: As a hardworking half-foot who grew up poor and discriminated against and had his gullibility taken advantage of multiple times in his early adventuring days, Chilchuck thinks optimism is a dangerous flaw. He’s stressed and strict all the time because his job is noticing details like traps that could get everyone killed before anyone knows it, he takes the lives of everyone to be on his shoulders, and with the way he speaks about it that probably partly reflects how he felt about taking it upon himself to provide for his family too. His life’s always been pretty centered around work and has become even moreso now that his wife left and everyone is independent, and due to past events he’s very iffy with bonding with coworkers. He thinks feelings and job are a disaster mix. Like with his wife or with parties hiring him as sacrifice, being open or having good faith is vulnerability which can get you hurt, so he processes and shows all his stress as anger instead of worry. Doing strict dieting probably isn’t helping the irritability what with hunger, and on top of being a hunger suppressant alcohol might be the main stress reliever he has.

His grey hairs are so earned

Deeper dive into ‘Wifi controlled passage regulator’

In the previous post we got a basic idea of the project and the components used. If you want you can also see the video of the device in action here before reading the earlier post or this post.

Now we begin this post with (a very rough) schematic diagram of the project-its components and connections (since there are too many wires involved, the connections were not clearly visible in pictures in earlier post) .

The code(backdrop)

Before looking into actual code let us know the algorithm/logic used in the project.

When the device is powered on-

1)The arduino starts the ESP8266 in softAP mode(hotspot in common language);

2)Next , the arduino starts a webserver on ESP8266 which parses any request made to it and returns the queries of the request back to arduino.

3)If the query is equal to 'num' and the parameter of the query is a number(<10), the arduino displays the number on the 7-segment LED(indicating how many people are allowed to enter). Also, if the number is equal to 0 then RGB LED is made to glow red indicating that no one is allowed to enter and in all other cases it glows green.

Now let us know how do we control the device remotely. First we need to connect(our phone) to the hotspot created by ESP8266. Then we need to type a query of the form http://192.168.43.1:3000/?num={val} in our browser and tap 'Enter'(Go to that URL). We need to put the actual number(anything between 0 and 9) in place of {val} in the URL. Anytime we feel like displaying a different number on the device we just need to go to the above URL from our browser replacing {val} with the number we want. The fact that it does not require an app makes it easily usable on both Android and iOS. Obviously an app can be made which provides a nice UI to the above steps but the fact is publishing an app to the Apple App Store requires paying $100 per year which is not justified for many microcontroller based projects and so I went with making it directly controllable from a browser(preferably Chrome on Android and Safari on iOS).

The actual code-

I started by searching for an arduino library which allows both starting a hotspot and a webserver. The first library which I found could not even create a hotspot because my ESP8266 was running an older firmware than that supported by the library. Next I stumbled upon

The library has API of both starting a hotspot(roughly documented) and starting a server( not documented at all,I came across the API after looking at the actual code in the library). So I was able to start the hotspot. When using the API for starting server I realised that the (c++)function for starting the server could be simplified to be less resource consuming and also return the parameters more suitable to my use case. So I made the necessary changes in the library and then used the updated API from my main code. While most use Arduino IDE for programming arduino, I use PlatformIO extension for VSCode IDE. Given below are two screenshots of the code I have written or made changes to.

In the first pic,both the left and right tabs show the changes I made to the above mentioned library(which can be found by comparing with the code found on github). In the second pic, the tab on the right also shows the changes to the library. The tab on the left shows a portion of the code of the main c++ file. I have intentionally not provided picture for the code of the function(named 'work') which actually analyses the request and glows the LEDs acordingly because a wise man once said 'Never reveal everything'. With this saying,I end my post.

A Deanee Marriage Timeline

October 2016: Dean and Renee file to get married in a county they don’t live in. Plausible as Dean had a houseshow in Reno that day, except….

A while ago, someone leaked the deeds to the Vegas house, listing the legal owner as a ‘Jonathan L. Good.’ The name on the marriage application says 'Jonathan D. Good.’ Now I’m no lawyer but I’m pretty sure you don’t get to pick and choose which middle names you want to present to own property or legally file to get hitched.

Conclusion: one document is real and the other isn’t/involves an unrelated party. So Dean did file to marry Renee but has been lying about living in Vegas. Or, he does live in Vegas and the Jon and Renee on the application are two different people. Stranger shit has happened.

January 2017: This month is important because according to Nevada law, they should have married for it to be recognized as a legal union. If that’s them that filed in October, then the timeline has obviously lapsed and they’re only 'married’ in the 'married in Vegas’ sense, I.e easily dissolved and not legally binding. If they waited until Sunday to get married, they’d have to apply for a new license. So why didn’t they?

April 6th - April 9th 2017: The romantical Zion holiday. The only fan who puts them near that location is a guy who, for some reason, refused to share the story of how his mother met them at the restaurant she works until Monday.

[Things to also take into account: his social media is new (first tweet was less than five days before he uploaded that picture) and his YouTube channel isn’t a month old yet. And as at time of writing, despite the fact that he’s supposed to review Raw and Smackdown episodes, he hasn’t uploaded anything since retelling his mother’s encounter. Interesting.]

During his retelling, his timeline switches from 'They came Thursday and left on Monday to 'They came Friday and left Saturday’. Dean and Renee could have been there from just one day to staying for the whole weekend. Not helping to sort out this jumbled timeline is Renee’s IG posts. She posted two pictures of the trip: one on Saturday with the caption 'That was nice’ (which a Utah native commented by saying the scenery didn’t look anything like Zion), and the other on Monday where she says 'goodbye and now off to Smackdown.’ In between those two pics, she reposted a video of herself watching Blue watch TV on Sunday.

Conclusion: no fucking clue. Them getting married on Sunday only makes sense if they truly left Zion on Saturday. Her pictures conflict with the timeline that’s being presented by WWE. But even if they did leave on Saturday, Dean travels the day before each televised appearance. Sunday would have been a travel day for him, while she remained at home/Zion.

April 10th 2017: Dean gets drafted to Raw. Fans spot a rubber/silicone band on his ring and start freaking the fuck out online.

April 11th 2017: Renee adds fuel to the fire by posting a picture on Snapchat showcasing a huge cheap ring. More fans freak out. In Talking Smack, she wears the rings but gets passive aggressive when KO and Ziggler start 'congratulating’ her.

In between Renee’s Snapchat and Talking Smack, SWMNBN suddenly appears on both anti blogs with information on the marriage application that’s been available since October, but she only chooses that day and time to share. She then leaks the information on Twitter, leading to people blaming us and 'Dean fangirls.’

April 12th 2017: Renee seemingly confirms the marriage news and spends time liking tweets from people offering congratulations and blaming fans for invading her privacy. TMZ comments and says it’s all 'according to Renee.’ WWE comments, tellingly using their wrestling/Divas names and says 'More to come’ before announcing they got married on Sunday, discussed above. I should also mention that I find it unlikely that WWE didn’t know, considering Creative drafts the script for Talking Smack days/hours before Smackdown even airs.

Also Divas aired last night. A show that hasn’t gotten one million viewers since its fifth season and is being actively ignored by E! Network, who are more interested in Total Bellas. Also tellingly, last night’s episode was the last Deanee-centric one for this season.

Conclusion: A poorly timed, convoluted publicity stunt to drum up viewers for a failing reality tv show that’s hated/ignored by the vast majority of wrestling fans. The timing of the leak and the pictures and the episode is too precise for it to be anything but.

Other things to note-

Renee reusing the HOF pic (where she lied about sitting with him and would have shown up to see Dean had put two people between him and her), and justifying it by saying she’s using a new phone and doesn’t have her other pictures. Except that she already replaced it as at two-three weeks ago and Apple will transfer all your shit for you when you upgrade. It should also be noted that until now, Renee has never EVER called attention to the fact that she only reposts pictures of her and Dean at work or on-location shoots, nor has she ever felt the need to justify it.

Conclusion: An excuse for why she’s not posting couple pics or pictures from the Vegas wedding that may or may not have taken place. Also a change from her saying that Dean won’t let her post their couple pictures online. So has he changed his mind now that everyone knows they’re hitched?

People saying they got married because they knew they’d split up from the draft.

Conclusion: Codependency and insecurity, not love. How does getting married help them cope with the draft? If they need to enter something serious like marriage to reassure/reconfirm their feelings at getting separated, why should I buy that their love is so strong and pure?

Ultimate conclusion: It’s a mess. A steaming mess of bullshit. There’s no clear definite answer here. There’s too many coincidences and bullshit and precise timing involved to 100% say they got married at the time they said for the reasons you’d expect a healthy couple to marry. As always when it comes to these two, everything falls apart once you take the timeline and other things into account. My gut is telling me this is purely a PR move for Divas. This whole presentation is drowned in bullshit, and I’m not buying it until proven otherwise.
