Many years ago, I put together this little #Nokia5110 Screen with a #Wemos #D1Mini #ESP8266 - I don't remember what the original project was going to be. I never got the display to work right - actually it worked. But was hard to see.
I found this in a box of stuff yesterday, and thought, I'd try again. - After looking at the library I found a #Bias setting - a little playing around, and well it's still not perfect, but I can read it.
The issue with this screen is viewing angle.

I recently discovered that my Unique ICQ Number, 8183167, had been purged without prior warning:( kinda made me sad.
I had a similar feeling when I noticed that my Dutch prepaid SIM/number that I had had since my very first phone, a #Nokia5110 iirc, had also expired because I hadn't used it recently enough...

Irrational, but still...

#RIP my very first (Dutch) mobile number. I got it with my very first phone, a #Nokia5110, when #Vodafone was still called #Libertel, which is probably over 2 decades by now. Wow, mobile phones have been part of my life for so long already, eh?

Granted, I barely used that SIM card yet, which is probably why I missed the SMS reminders, but I was kinda relying on the e-mail reminders they used to send out, as I liked holding onto that relic of my past.

Now to find accounts still referring to it.
