Most of the shots I take with the GR look great right out of camera, no editing required, so I wouldn’t let that deter you

Bought my Ricoh GR 1 years ago used for $300. This camera is perfect. Their hype is warranted imo.
But man. I could easily sell it in its relic’d state with high shutter count today for $1000.
Like most hobbies, covid made photography too expensive.
Yesterday I sold my XE3, broken (doesn’t interface with autofocus lenses anymore). Buyer wanted to buy it to use it for use with vintage manual lenses. An excellent choice of camera body for this. But I sold it for the same price I bought it 6 years ago. Insanity.

My feelings are hurt? Lol my job is recession proof

We deployed a fuck ton of servers to process data from the square kilometer array recently: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_Kilometre_Array
This doubled the heat output from the datacenter.
Sometimes it’s hard for me to tell whether I’m contributing to something bad or not. It does weigh on my conscience knowing that compute is being used for such nefarious reasons now. I probably wouldn’t have ever gotten into computers if I knew this is what would happen.
I still think that datacenter hate is just a trend fueled by a lot of misinformation. First world problem voiced by people who are bored and have no idea what they are talking about.
I saw a sticker on a post downtown recently that said “burn down your local datacenter” and shit like this makes me not even want to tell people irl what I do for work anymore.

100%. This started with mass adoption of the smartphone in like 2013. Hot take but I think the world would have been better if we never let “normies” on the internet so easily. But you can’t really put the genie back in the bottle now
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
I almost completely agree with you. But this is a capitalism problem and not a datacenter problem you do realize?
Datacenters existed and worked fine before the examples you mentioned existed.
The other problem is that users don’t know what they are doing, and that’s why datacenters are required…

If your homelab hosted every online resource you utilize, it would have a worse impact on the environment given it probably sits in a room temperature room and would therefore require more power than a room designed to be cold.
It seems like a drop in the bucket but if everyone hosted their own compute we would have serious environmental issues way before AI even existed.
You think people should be running a gigabit switch and dell poweredge for example in their own house?

I mean, I’m someone who knows how it actually works, talking to a guy who thinks they know how it works.
I wish I could do that my man.
Can you elaborate on how my datacenter is polluting the water? We have not topped up the water cooling loop in six years.
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
As a datacenter technician, yes, having all the computers in one place is more efficient than it would be having one running in individual homes.
Solar is great. And we use it at the datacenter too. Lol.
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
If all compute power was self hosted it would be less efficient than running in datacenters.
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
You mean a bunch of connected local movements…running in datacenters?
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
What dishonest rhetoric? I might be the only person in this thread who’s actually been inside a datacenter lol
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
Datacenters are just the popular thing to be offended by right now
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
I work at an AI datacenter and the houses 50 meters away just think it’s a generic square building
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
I just find it ironic that the people whining about datacenters, seem to be the people who rely on datacenters the most.
- Comment on Stop the datacenters 3 weeks ago:
Yeah just build them somewhere else and fuck over some less fortunate people. Can’t survive without my netflix.
This is like advocating against animal cruelty then buying a steak at the grocery store.

Higher chance I get fat and she leaves me. My gf is there one keeping me active and I would deserve to believe left behind if I treated myself body like shit.
- Comment on Uno reverse😭 3 weeks ago:
No but does anyone really like fat people if we are being honest? Fat acceptance is kind of nefarious no?
Would be like being alcoholic phobic. Don’t worry about what they say girl, own it! Drink 12 beers per day!

I’m in shape and zero chance of dating a fat girl. Am I fat phobic?
