I must once again emphasize that if you are putting art on the internet, you need your own website in case some fucking management ghoul decides the platform they paid too much money for isn't worth how much they paid for it

When we talk about the costs that LLMs impose on society we should not forget the fact that nothing works anymore because everyone is so scared of getting their shit scraped. I can't even use google scholar from my university or starlink because they send too much traffic.

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

When a pilot flew through one of the strongest aurora storms in years, he saw the sky literally explode in color. From the cockpit of a Boeing 787, Matt Melnyk had a view like no one else. Flying at 37,000 feet over Manitoba, he watched as the auroras filled the entire sky. Original post

Can confirm, it's amazing how much stuff can happen if you decide you're just going to do it. It's worth 5 minutes of due diligence to make sure the thing you're doing isn't something that exists that you can join and support. But if it doesn't exist? Go make that thing happen.

Another downside of hosting stuff externally rather than using campus infrastructure: external hosting services block our cloud-based web archiving tools with aggressive captchas, and you can't just Slack the sysadmin to whitelist the crawler IP address. Back to web archiving from my laptop. 🫠

Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28th_Vi...

The 28th Virginia battle flag is a Confederate battle flag that belonged to the 28th Virginia Infantry Regiment. Captured by the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg, the flag was brought to Minnesota and exhibited at the state's capitol for several years before passing into the permanent collection of the Minnesota Historical Society after 1896 where it has remained since.

had someone ask "why a tape drive" well the fiber-channel controller was €20 and the cabling another €20 and the drive was €90 and a stack of 15 LTO-5 tapes of various sorts was €90, so I now have ~22TB of bulk storage for the grand total of €220, which is half the price of a ~22TB HDD
