It's difficult to pick apart fears about AI & data centers that are intrinsic to the technologies vs. those that are connected to the fact that giant, fateful decisions about these things are being made by a small handful of insular brain-cooked oligarch narcissists.

#NASARoman activated the Wide Field Instrument—a 300-megapixel infrared camera that will allow it to explore wide swaths of the cosmos quickly. This test image captures the very first photons of starlight to reach the instrument—taken as an initial performance assessment: go.nasa.gov/4rg4qEc

I wish I wasn't always harping on about generative AI being the abomination that it is, but I just keep seeing more articles where its proponents go on about how its going to change global society etc and maybe but I struggle to see how any are in good ways regarding general public access to it?

11. Probably the best and most multi-faceted psychedelic photo I've ever taken while standing up to my waist in a small moorland river and looking directly through an interdimensional portal into a potentially better world. www.tom-cox.com/the-village-...

Yes, I did stand in the river beside my old house to take this photo. No regrets. This was the house and river that was a big inspiration for the landscape mentioned in the Papps Wedge chapter of my novel, Villager. I don't have a link to an extract from that chapter, but if you click on the link with this photo you can read one of the other chapters (I've taken the paywall off it).

When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.
