Red hot Truchet tiles in vermillion, magenta, and red violet. Printed on a HP 7585B pen plotter from 1983 on 11x15 watercolor paper. A slight detour of my usual CMY palette 😀

Detail from a pen plot of concentric large overlapping arcs making swirling patterns of movement in many shades of red, pink, and violet. Focus is on the center of an intersection of arcs.

Coming to the tech exchange tent at #emf2024 #emfcamp
Three digital drawing boards I got from the house clearance of an architect who went digital very early.
If you can make use of these hit me up in advance, otherwise they will be being donated.

Current status: cup of tea in the garden. Reading a 2007 book I bought in 2012, about some software first released in 1995 handling a 1981 protocol that I'm going to use as the cornerstone of my teeny tiny SaaS in 2024.

May we all have such a long-term effect on the world!

@pgoodgame have you written up how the box is constructed and what is is running? If love to read it.

@pgoodgame that's perfect, thank you. I had a camera making timelapse or the sky for a few years, never too much detail 😄

@Dtl how much success do you have with Bird Pi? I want to love it but it's so unstable

@Dtl interesting, mine would get locked up after about 2 days, stuck trying to process the backlog, or just jamming. I cron rebooted it every 2 days in the end and then gave up

My game sold 1608 units so far, got 128 reviews (99% positive) and took ~650h to make. I wrote a little post-mortem with more statistics and learnings about wishlist, community building, marketing, how I identified a key theft and more: https://simonschreibt.de/gat/cozy-space-survivors/#update1

On Friday May 25th, the birthday of the kubernetesio account on X (the official account of the Kubernetes project) was changed to reflect the date of the public release of Kubernetes (6 June 2014) ahead of the upcoming anniversary. The account was subsequently locked for being underage. A ticket has been opened with X. We appreciate the community's patience and understanding while we work to resolve this issue.

Another large language model scraper blocked. This graph is from a site which runs a tool generating answers for people doing important research work. The AI scraper sent hundreds of thousands of lookup requests evading rate limits by using about a thousand IPs and pinned multiple webservers at 100% CPU (graph from one attached). This is a massive waste of electricity to train a hallucination machine.

@beasts can you name and shame this company?
