When was that even? Early 90's?
Here's the Amiga mod file, which I found that VLC will cheerfully play:
https://gemlog.ca/files/Axelf.mod
It's 111KiB
Not bad.
@gemlog I looked and I found I have it as a midi file. You can play them too with the more traditional looking Open Cubic Player (https://github.com/mywave82/opencubicplayer) , it resembles the old mod players. @cstanhope
@joandelatitagran és una bona idea, substituir tots els dels parlaments per agents IA, cadascun entrenat segons la ideologia del partit. Ens estalviaríem espectacles lamentables i molts diners.
@spla per complementar amb dades, i perquè desmenteixin possibles errors. Que fiscalitzin. Seria ideal.
No ho proposaran mai perquè els polítics viuen de mentir.
Also how classic is this. Kress calls bullshit on the circular financing and massive $250B #OpenAI deal last year, Huang "lays into" her "calling her a 'deer in the headlights."
Now Huang is out and Kress is on the proverbial "glass cliff."
It's her job, like so many female CEO's before her, to clean up after the complete debacle that the male #CEO left. She'll be the one holding the bag when one skeleton in a closet after another is revealed and as the share value deflates.
It will continue to look to all the world like women can't run companies-- as opposed to the fact that these "charimastic" (i.e. sociopathic) male CEO's can't run companies for shit.
Plus ça change ...

@Caelumtangi els ordinadors/servidors tenen la seva pròpia hora que pot estar sincronitzada o no amb els servidors d’hora. Si aquests caiessin, els nostres ordinadors/servidors seguirien tenint i donant l’hora fins que es quedessin sense bateria (la famosa pila de botó que porten en la placa mare).
@spla Aaaah, això no ho sabia de la pila! però si per exemple (imaginem) s'acaba la pila i saps (😅) posar-ne una de nova, el comptador comença a un horari nou o té memòria?

The @EUCommission wanted #AIFirst, now that's what they're getting. 🤷
Al Parlament de Catalunya o d'altres estats es perd molt de temps en baralles de pre-escolar.
- Fas la intervenció. Un text ben llegit sense equivocar-te, que ets un professional, amb les idees ben clares i sense personalismes.
- Tornes al seient del parlament (o a atendre els fills, podria fer-se en teletreball, perfectament)
- Deixes un agent d'intel·ligencia artificial escoltant les bajanades dels discursos dels altres partits polítics.

(Almost) ready to turn my beloved MacBook Air 2013 - which is gathering dust on a shelf - into a #Linux laptop.
Only problem: multiple people might have swayed me to pick Arch Linux as the distro. #ArchLinux!!! I know NOTHING but from all the Linux memes I've seen over the years, I've always been intimidated by it.
Debating whether to go with it or #Mint or #Ubuntu. Thoughts?
Edit / update: it's now a toss-up between Mint and Fedora. I may try Arch on my Raspi4
Went to our tiny Szechuan Restaurant around the corner for dinner. Their Mapo Tofu is truly a dish that has to be experienced as no description could come even close to the epic vibrating spiciness of it all.
So, so good. 😋
NVIDIA Allegedly Engineered Scarcity By Funding AI Startups To Buy Its GPUs
Following the departure of now-former NVIDIA CEO, Jensen Huang, a new report has emerged alleging that NVIDIA artificially inflated the ongoing GPU and memory shortage by investing in AI startups that would go on to buy NVIDIA GPUs and build data centers. The reason behind this was to maintain the perception of ongoing high demand and to move an oversupply of semiconductors from TSMC.

As you know I don't subscribe to the inter-generational blame game that says boomers caused the UK's economic malaise; I see it as a class issue!
That said (and of course this remains a class issue, really), 43% of all housing equity is owned by the over-65s (not least as they've paid off their mortgages), and would like be higher if buy-to-let properties were included.
The Q. here is, of course: *which* over-65s?... and that *is* a class issue!

We let foreign states pay British parliamentarians – why? - https://democracyforsale.substack.com/p/we-let-foreign-states-pay-british "One in ten members of the House of Lords has a side hustle selling political knowledge. It’s a symptom of a rotten political system, writes Adam Ramsay

The reasons for the NHS (and Govt. more widely) to rid itself of Palantir are myriad, and here (from the team at The Nerve) are nine of them....
As we say in social sciences, the need to end Palantir's contract(s) are over-determined!
Francesca Farrington explores how serial sex offenders in the media & public life have adopted a form of gendered 'lawfare' to hide their crimes & allow them to continue their abusive activities.
This miss-use of the law to silence victims needs to be addressed in response to the conviction of sexual predator Russell Brand, and the emerging allegations around David Walliams.
And, lets be clear, these are unlikely to be the only cases where this has happened!
