## Summary

Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi review a week of hardware hacks, including a vintage NASA soldering film, a fixed-code Tesla charging exploit, and Nick Poole’s scientific analysis of PCB mouse bites. They also discuss Wesgood’s autonomous PVC pontoon boat, Jörg’s high-performance graphics library for the ATtiny85, and a teardown of a commercial coin acceptor. The episode concludes with reviews of the Vizzy AI camera and the mothballing of the Rosalind Franklin Mars rover.
