tfw theres new episodes >>>>>>

the earliest US cases of the 1918 spanish flu were noticed by doctors in kansas. probably nothing to worry about.

mist me with that. goodnight.

i saw the "best" minds of my generation destroyed by tokens, token madness, prompts,

Somepow, Palpapine has Pepurned

personally i think it's good we've precariously rebuilt the global economy around the midlife crises of the world's biggest assholes

i am so sick of every single fucking thing being commodified and transactional

also this thumbnail is fucking revolting and certainly reminds me of something but i can't put my finger on it... hmm. not sure what it is but probably just a coincidence! pic unrelated can't figure out how to remove it

screenshot of https://v2.jabrek.net/yt-dislikes/v/do-EyIFvQ1E showing 60.7% likes/39.3% dislikes for a video titled "why does everyone hate ai?" from youtube channel level1techs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do-EyIFvQ1E is the url. this video does not do what it purports and is, in fact, every overwrought, underthunk argument you've ever heard from AI cheerleaders while addressing some of the perimeter issues with AI in the most shallow way possible. nothing in the video gets to the point where there's any sort of understanding as to why people are actively rejecting this stuff. this is a tech channel, so i don't expect them to really understand labor issues, but the entire idea that this could be bad for workers and/or the general public is so glossed over that it seems like it's intentional; i don't think it is, wendell level1 is not a moron, but there's barely even a hand-wringing dismissal, and some encomium toward regulation and "holding people accountable," which, look around you. do you see any accountability? that only goes one way - it's a ratchet, not a sine wave, and "optimization" and "efficiencies" are pushed down from above by people not doing the actual work; the failure to notice or acknowledge that is naive, at best. i'm willing to give wendell (not the libertarian guy, who i share a name with) the benefit of the doubt, but he went to cover nvidia's gtc, with a badge provided by nvidia and travel costs provided by supermicro - both companies that may have a vested interest in selling you an idea about something that doesn't and may never actually exist, AGI, but also attempting to sell their existing hardware that can do all this "cool" new stuff (poorly, and expensively, fore the mere cost of your soul). i left a comment on the video, which I rarely do except to say "neat" or whatever. this video and previous AI/GTC videos, are very big disappointments. i probably shouldn't expect more or better from anyone, but i do. frankly, so should you. thx

swing and a miss from wendell level1techs

omg ben, this rules

not a demon, btw. goodnight.

"opened toothpaste wrong" was the one where i was like, oh wait i think i have arthritis now. life is a gift and every day is a blessing, i type through gritted teeth because my thumbs hurt

raspberry pi 500+ announcement in september, 2025. the standalone unit with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD was introduced at $200, with a kit including a mouse and some other stuff for $230

raspberry pi 500+ kit preorder for $230, basically as soon as it was announced.

link to raspberrypi dot com page on the raspberry pi 500+, which now costs $410

screenshot of my local micro center showing a raspberry pi 500+ now costs $409.99 in store

a small group of rich dullards and a handful of large companies that don't make anything except "services" have been trying to kill general purpose computing for the last two or three decades. here's a side effect of the latest excuse (buying all the RAM/SSD). personally, i don't think this is good.

atavistic smiles. goodnight.

module, not rack mount. Got okd e-mu stuff on the brain!

i have a reverb search setup in my feed, honestly might try the rack mount for something different if a steal pops up
