Working on a new plugin, can you see where the inspiration for this one comes from?

#ai #grumpyoldman

I've gone from excited (10 yrs ago) to indifferent to outright pissed.

#RAM prices are freak'n ridiculous right now. Since I build three PCs two months ago the price has increased x4.

Why?
Because #openai and "friends" vacuuming all the hardware, making it unavailable for normal people.

Is it really making our life better?
No.

The #bubble is going to burst.
Sooner is better.
Don't give them your money.
We don't _need_ 99% of the shit they're throwing at us.

I just realized that I've been a #linux user for freakin 30 years!

..I installed #slackware as a student back in '95 at the #university of Oslo
