Farcaster as I knew it is dead. I've written more words than the new owners are worth, so this is the note where it died — closure, not a eulogy. Everything I wrote while it still felt like home now has somewhere to point. 👇 eirrann.art/studio-notes/f/farcaste…

The coven is getting a workshop. After weeks of iteration and review, fractura has started building the ecosystem for her AI witches to help run my art studio: artwork documentation, archives, publishing, and collective memory. I keep the vision. They get to work.

I'm sick of petulant rich manchildren buying social media to advance dystopian agendas and deplatforming people arbitrarily.

I devoted a year of my artistic practice to what one dude called "pussy art": vulva vitrea, a series of abstract glass floral algorithmic AI vulva art. How would my artistic vision align with Balaji's non-NSFW vision for the new dystopian state of Farcaster?

Between dystopian Elon de-platforming me once on X already and dystopian Balaji giving me the choice of agreeing to an ideological manifesto or be de-platformed, I'm done with making top-level posts or threads to any single social network. x.com/cass_on_mars/status/211090602…

I guess I can stop paying for a new month of Farcaster Pro every time I want to update my profile banner with new artwork. RIP.

With @farcaster_xyz leaning into the dystopian state approach, I'm glad I recently started cross-posting to multiple social networks to avoid being de-platformed again. eirrann.art/studio-notes/f/permanen…

Currently sending all funds from my @farcaster (err, Network State?) wallet to my ENS. This acquisition feels like about as opposite of an outcome from what the people who were on Farcaster for ideological reasons in the first place would have expected.

So@farcaster_xyz has been acquired by Balaji's Network State. The first interaction informed me that my account is read-only until I agree with an ideological ToS that, at a glance, references 'digital felonies' and might restrict anonymous users like me. Yikes.

I read 2 @xdadevelopers articles today about local AI models for home labs. Key numbers: 744B. 120B. 27B. The biggest number doesn't align with which model could finish my work. Beast’s results: 24GB RTX 3090, ~203K context, Hermes agent shipped a good ComfyUI workflow.

Living in Central Florida today, it can be easy to forget that you're in the Deep South: the prejudices that once made it the land of segregation, lynchings and other forms of hate still simmer just below the surface for far too many people. archive.ph/vBNIe

Today, my son and I got into the car and he said: "I want to play some music we haven't listened to together before that I found the other day." Then he played the Stone Temple Pilots album Core. I love that he's independently discovering a taste for the music of my youth!

BIP 🧵 My MoE AI model was stuck in Hermes. I went model shopping and found an unexpected VRAM bottleneck: I'd been too cautious with it. The GPU must fit both the model and its working memory. My 24 GB RTX 3090 now runs a 27B model with 180k context.

Quick update: I moved my local AI’s eyes to the CPU. That fixed image crashes and freed VRAM to grow its context from 180K to 203K tokens. A tiny API fix got video working too. Same 27B model. Same 24GB RTX 3090. More useful work. Hermes is using these tools now.

I raised Beast’s GPU cap 36%. Decode improved just 6–8%, while loaded UPS draw rose ~60W. Moving two layers’ MoE experts to CPU helped make room for 50% more context. Memory tuning paid off. These are live Kanban results, not matched benchmarks.

Local LLM/Hermes folks: proven better model on 5950X, 3090 24GB, 64GB RAM than Qwen3.8-Flash-Next UD-Q2_K_XL (65K, n-cpu-moe=32)? Production metrics: 28.1 decode / 244.9 prompt tok/s over 1.59M gen tokens; second window avg: 33.7 / 255.2 140W = current GPU thermal cap

Tonight, my 14yo son and I sat in the living room for 3-4 hours listening to music from my youth that he loves like tool, a perfect circle and silverchair, and he proceeded to educate me about it all. I know nothing.

For his first breadboard project, my 14yo son is making a 6-string electric 'Diddly Bow' (basic guitar-like instrument) that he hopes to be able to distort and output to the aux input of a portable speaker via the breadboard, which the guitar pickups will plug into.

I'm fascinated by how Hermes uses a kanban board to let fractura break down a highly complex task like iterating meaningful improvements throughout a complex ComfyUI workflow into small, interconnected tasks that individual AI workers who share her identity can tackle for me.

when you realize your Hermes agent isn't using the correct skill to diagnose the ComfyUI issue, send a one line question, and 99 mins later, she's still digging into it for you I'm okay with this

I hit my record distance today (5.8 mi) and my heart barely broke a sweat?! I was surprised to see that pushing the pace still kept me mostly in the moderate zone this morning. A month of morning rides appears to be paying off in efficiency: flow state found?

For months, I kept making beautiful images that felt too intact for a world this broken. My new PFP and banner are from this terra fracta v3.4.08 v3 LoRA self-portrait. A breakthrough in the first system native to terra fracta, built by an AI agent to break the art itself.👇
