The area these were handed out in is upper middle class to upper class, very conservative. People definitely shuttle kids in from other neighborhoods to tricker treat. I’d be interested to know if there was even thc candy in the packages as the packaging is a sketchy grey market thing you buy empty and fill with candy you spray with a THC extract and resell. Either way irresponsibility all around.

Donaldson could be heard saying, “Hey, here’s $10,000,” and put a bundle of money in the child’s bucket. The child said “thank you,” and an adult standing next to the child said, “Oh my gosh, are you serious?”

The child could then be seen taking the bundle of cash and trying to give it back to Donaldson.

“No, no, it’s yours. No, keep it,” Donaldson said.

Donaldson also tweeted about the encounter on November 3, writing, “I was handing out $10,000 on Halloween and one kid tried to trade the $10k for candy,”

He then shared a screenshot of the child trying to hand him back the cash, with a caption that read, “POV you want a Feastables bar instead of $10,000.”

The plot twist is that kid’s name is Elon (i’m joking, mostly).

That all makes pretty close to zero sense to me.

Yay! I found a speech recognition package, PocketSphinx, that runs fine on a RPi1, and doesn’t need an Internet connection to anyone’s cloud. It’s considered obsolete, but should do the job for tasks like playing Infocom adventures.

Now to tie the pieces together, write the docs and throw it on github.
