The inconvenient TRUTH about social media. History happens to catch up with you in the end #TrumpTheWarCriminal and your ILLEGAL #TrumpsEpsteinWar.

We should all send pizzas to Boebert's home/office. She's so obsessed with it.

Many years from now…

Timmy: Dad, why did we go to war with Iran?

Dad: well, son, people found out the president liked little girls too much…and not in a good way…

I may be one of the few that likes Houston in the summer. I really like the host and Houston suits me. Of course, the peak afternoon is a bit brutal :)

In 90 minutes I went from idea to prototype, thanks to Cursor/Opus 4.6. My app uses a local LLM to turn text into #SLURM sacct/squeue calls and then shows the result in a table. It's not perfect; the system prompt needs tuning; but amazing what is possible as a user on an #HPC system. #HPCDesktop

I remember that as well and agree with your comment. It's been a downhill slide ever since then.

I'm just a bit left of you. I'm a really, really, pale yellow dot. However, there are some really great people around me, so I feel like I belong.

Yep - me too. eBay is my friend. I'm looking for DDR4 memory for my "new" systems and looking for used systems with lots of memory regardless of the type.

I think I can get at least 2-3 years out of the systems.

LOL!! "The future's so bright, I need to wear shades." I call this the "fragtonian" era of computing. So much new stuff just because it's new. When is DOS making a comeback?

Perhaps we can just vibe-code DOS that can address TB's of memory and work with IB and GPUs. I would wear shades for that.

I'm a day late, but I will never forget the Holocaust. I grew with a friend in my class and her brother who was 2-3 years older than me. Their mother, Eva Kor, was a twin in Auschwitz and was used in experiments. Their father was also in a concentration camp. I miss them.

I thought I read somewhere that someone claimed it could be done.

If that happens I switch to *BSD unless they use decide to use it.

I'm assuming that was not an accurate translation? (if could have been) :)

'Ralph Wiggum' loop prompts Claude to vibe-clone software Feature: Developer behind it is sick with worry he might have changed software development in nasty ways

Be sure you read this article (it's not long at all) because it is very cool. #HPC - I wonder if this could be done for some well established HPC tools?

ICE agents to begin checking documents at MSP airport, patrol jet bridges - Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will begin checking documents of travelers and workers at MSP airport, with patrols inside jet bridges.

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.
