@ozzelot back when Minolta AF -> Sony Alpha it was much the same, possibly backwards. "buy this slightly over-priced old camera, get this lens as a bargain"

Fun fact - Robin Jacques was the brother of legendary comic actor Hattie Jacques, and it was her who added the 'c' to their surname!
@JennyList this bot is your friend ;)
also it's worrying how much of this reads as modern management practice in the workplace

Smurfs Log: Lucky
* Not only was I lucky enough to see a stoat up close today (see previous post), but this afternoon I finally found some of those tiny, fluffy, woolly creatures other people have been spotting. This one was kind enough to bring her two little lambs with her, too.

@JennyList sorry, there's another Gnuppix one buried further down I missed too
@JennyList https://virtualosmuseum.org/installation-list/ do list 3 Hurd options, but all Gnu. might be a pointer towards a working vm though

Fwiw, computer people are starting to sound like climate scientists started to sound 5-6 years ago. You know, that whole "yeah whatever I fucking told you and you fucked around so you're all gonna find out - I'm going to get ice cream because NOTHING fucking matters anymore and we're all doomed."
That.
I think I understand why AI is SOCIALLY and ECONOMICALLY a fucking time bomb - but they understand why it's TECHNICALLY a time bomb too. And I don't like how dead man walking they all sound...

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) https://isaiprofitable.com/

The astronomy cloud computing system is down. Again.
(It is down a lot, but I don't use it that often lately. Otherwise I would complain a lot more)
Always makes me so sad that there's just buttloads of money being dumped into AI data centers so people can make awful slop no one wants, but the science computing infrastructure is held together with hope, duct tape, and someone's leftover grant money from 5 years ago.
