Is it just me, or is everyone else in Lucknow also seeing whiskey bottles topped with shady "paper" excise stickers lately?

I bought a bottle recently, and at first glance, everything about the proof sticker looked 100% right—the fonts, the state logo, and the layout were practically identical to the real thing. But the second I touched it, I realized the material was totally off.

Official UP excise labels are printed on a sleek, plastic-like polyester film that is tamper-proof and smooth. This bottle had a seal made out of cheap, normal sticker paper. It feels exactly like a sticker printed on a basic home inkjet or laser printer

There are 2 liquore stores in shushant golf city, both selling the same fake bottles.

Hey guys,

I've been working on this modular development board for the past few months. The main goal was to create a clean platform where I can easily swap the microcontroller and have most essential features built-in.

**Features:**
- M.2 swappable MCU cards (currently STM32F103 and STM32F405)
- Onboard ST-Link debugger
- CP2102 USB-UART
- OLED display
- 10x WS2812B programmable RGB LEDs
- microSD card slot
- 5V 3A + 3.3V 3A power supply

Here are a few photos of the current prototype.

Would love to hear your thoughts or any suggestions!

I've been working on this modular development board for the past few months. The main goal was to create a clean platform where I can easily swap the microcontroller and have most essential features built-in.

**What I added:**

- Custom M.2 MCU cards (currently have STM32F103 and STM32F405, planning more)

- Onboard ST-Link debugger

- CP2102 USB-UART bridge

- Small OLED display

- 10x WS2812B programmable RGB LEDs

- microSD card slot

- Proper power supply — 5V 3A + 3.3V 3A bucks

It's been working really well in testing.

Here’s a photo of the current prototype (powered on).

What do you think? Any feedback or suggestions are welcome!
