For over one year I've been harassed, threatened, doxxed, misgendered and abused by Luna the Foxgirl, author of Inochi2D.

Due to her attacks and manipulation of others, I no longer feel safe contributing to Linux GPU drivers, and I will be retiring my current model.

Fal has also launched Google’s Veo 2, which currently only supports text-to-video. The generation price is quite expensive, but during the promotional period, it’s half price, costing $1.25 for every 5 seconds of video generated. For every additional second, you will be charged $0.25.

The USPS this week released two new stamps celebrating NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.

The two stamps feature spiral galaxy NGC 628 and Star Cluster IC 348 resp.

The stamps were designed by Greg Breeding, an art director for the USPS.

The stamps are used for Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express resp. and hence are pricey at $10.10 and $31.40 each. Sheets of 4 stamps each can be purchased at store.usps.com/store/stamps/pr

Images of the two stamps.
1. NGC 628 is spiral galaxy seen face on. The blue light within the hazy circular core at the center of the image represents clusters of older stars. The light these old stars emit are some of the shortest infrared wavelengths seen in the telescope’s images, which is why they are assigned a blue hue.
Emerging from the central blue haze are the galaxy’s enormous spiral arms, which are made of stars, gas and dust. The arms of the galaxy extend to the edges of the image, rotating counterclockwise
2. Star Cluster !C 348 - Gas and dust within the image, captured in infrared light by the Webb Telescope’s filters, cascade like
billowing pink, purple and white curtains while reflecting the light from the cluster’s stars — a phenomenon known as a reflection nebula. Additional stars and galaxies appear as white pinpoints within and beyond the nebula.

Looks like the executive order terminating DEI roles is actually DEIA with the A being accessibility. They’re firing all government employees working on accessibility 😮

@65dBnoise it wasn’t the democrats thats focused on identity politics and culture wars though

It was the republicans successfully painting them as such, while they passed healthcare and infrastructure and signed historic treaties and trade deals. Obama literally created a pandemic plan that trump scrapped

For whatever reason Dems merely saying “actually republicans, we shouldn’t be racist or homophobic” while doing actual governance means they focused on identity politics?

This is exactly what's wrong with dinosaur Dems:

They don't mentor the next generation.
They refuse to step aside.
They pull up ladders while clinging to power.

The future of our party is progressive leaders like AOC – whether the old guard likes it or not.

The choice is adapt or fade away.

Headline Full Caucus Set to Vote After Key Panel Picks Pelosi-Backed Dem Over AOC for Oversight Spot
Rep. Ro Khanna said that "many" in the House Democratic caucus, including himself, will back Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in Tuesday's vote.

Maybe Pelosi would like to make a TikTok showing off their $100 / pint ice cream then invite the cast of Hamilton to congress to banish racism? That’ll get her likes and follows.

Here's the drive data extracted from JPL's "Waypoints JSON".

JPL update its JSON URL shortly after each drive.

The elevation change during the Sol 1349 drive is a new record of 41.3 meters (135.5 feet) :)

AMD is laying off about 1,000 (4% of workforce) in order to save about $200M and pivot to better compete against Nvidia as most of its growth is coming from AI chips.

Despite being the second largest producer of GPUs, AMD stock price is flat in 2024 while Nvidia shares are up 200%.

Nvidia is effectively lapping the industry at this point.
