🦘 20's, maths graduate but I work in IT (sad), post-anything enjoyer, Munich resident, ace + nonbinary (any/all) 🦘

I bought a new lens, I want to say I spoke Japanese the whole time but I don't feel like it counts when the shopkeep was using a translator gizmo to talk to me even when I was replying in Japanese

Snowboarding was pretty poor this weekend. Looks like spring is well and truly here too so unlikely to be really worth going back to the mountains besides perhaps once or twice for glacier skiing. This season was dooooogshit for Tyrolean resorts.

My favourite tidbit about this is like, Jensen said "hey ik you guys are worried about insane capex spend on our unprofitable GPUs for services that have seemingly stopped growing and improving but.. It's okay guys. seriously. Its fine." And the stock went +8%

Nvidia stock bumped up on 6th February.

Steam Frame getting delayed cause OpenAI wrote a letter of intent to buy a bunch of dram wafers from SK Hynix (not a deal! A letter of intent) that they'll never be able to afford. None of this RAM has actually been *ordered*. OpenAI will flop over and die before a single chip gets manufactured. Sad

I got kinda confused when everybody freaked out about microslop renaming 365 to Copilot 365. They did that in like June of last year. How did people not notice? The app changed names around then too? Was I the only person who looked??

I do think it's funny to be watching the sudden spread of "openai burning cash" now, like we've known they've been incredibly unprofitable for a year and a half? I understand it's cause Gamer YouTube got a headline that they shared amongst themselves this time, but. Still funny.
