This is a link post Fireflies
For ten days in the summer, the forests of Japan’s Yamagata prefecture are lit up by hime hotaru, a type of firefly endemic to the region.

Photographer Kazuaki Koseki has attempted to capture the phenomenon in his Summer Faeries series, compiled over a period of eight years. “The spectacle of fireflies flying through the summer forest is like the twinkling of a starry sky,” says Koseki.

“That sight is fantastic enough to forget the awe of the night forest.” In recent years, the fireflies’ habitat has been increasingly endangered by deforestation and the tourism industry.

A friend took me to see 'em. You took a boat and the big bushes on either side were full of fireflies. The kind of trigger each other so you have these waves going round and round all reflected in the water. Very cool. Wonder if someone has video'd them... nah, the vids all suck

This is a normal post I was going to call BS
As the early text implied that it's not been possible to run models locally until now. The differentiating feature looks like it's that their solution supports distributed systems and so is scalable.
They mention the huge amount of power consumed by data centres - I'd like to know if multiple end-user clusters is actually more energy efficient.
(, Fri 9 Jan 2026, 7:01, Reply)
This is a normal post I can't see any possible scenario where lots of small local clusters are more energy efficient than a large data centre.
These servers are massively power hungry, but also massively efficient. They need to be. A 1% increase in efficiency across an entire datacentre is a fucking enormous increase in compute/decrease in energy consumption. The stakes are far higher than making a local node 1% more efficient.

This is a normal post Economy of scale is going to the the issue here, I suspect.
Yeah, you can run train/inference across a distributed LAN, but then you have to deal with things such as maintenance, increased energy costs, security, redundancy, etc. Then there's the challenge of preventing obsolescence.
Christ, it was only a couple of years ago that these LLMs were struggling to draw hands, and now they're producing videos and images that are all but indistinguishable from reality. A local AI cluster isn't ever going to keep up with that kind of progress.

It's a bit like suggesting 'Why store all your data in a hosted cloud storage solution, when you could build your own, shitter, local cloud?'

You're probably right when it comes to training which is likely to remain centralised. Local inference (hopefully on-device) sounds right with less data transfer and latency. Smaller models have been shown to be just as good for everyday use.

This is a link post The Knife Angel Part 1 & 2 I made this!
Sorry for all the words. But, it’s hard to condense and explain.

This might be frowned upon as well but still, I always like to come back and share stuff now and then, have learned a lot over the yrs. from just returning here but, promise tho, it will be last time I’ll post anything work related, as I do get we’re not for everyone (however, if your mood changes about it) Part 2 is here: youtu.be/beZ4rG-NVnc.

Ironically, about 7 months ago, June 15th 2025, my son passed away, not knife crime related as such but more about the county lines aspect, which sits on the fringes of these issues however.

Reece faced immense challenges with a highly frequent and aggressive epileptic condition which eventually caused brain damage. Another effect of his epilepsy was acute mental health problems, with a further condition called 'Post Ictal Psychosis’.

A risk to himself and everybody around him when he was ill in this way, a big guy too, who could become combative during these seizures and MH episodes. Coupled with the fact he wanted to go out drinking/socialising with his friends (the effects of alcohol (and\or drugs) would block the effects of his meds thus, stop them working) thus aggravating situations further.

Neither perfect before but, he made a lot of his bad choices after the brain damage and, no expert but estimate, he probs had the mentality and emotional intellect of a 12 yr. old after that but, he was 28 yrs. old when he died however, before he got this illness (in 2015), he was just beginning to excel.

But, being genuinely so sick, they put him on the highest rate of disability (PIP) however, he never had pot to piss in because, local drug dealers/users/so called friends kept exploiting him plus, as parents we weren’t giving him money to kill himself anymore but, as his addiction worsened, oh boy, he did love to get exploited, until of course, the money and drugs ran out, then serious violence would erupt.

In 2018 we had to section him for the first of many times and, I thought those were my saddest memories ...

But on the 15th of June last yr. around 6am, Reece had a seizure and either /fell or had a psychotic episode and jumped from his third-floor apartment block. Suicide (in a lucid state) is also possible but we highly doubt that? Furthermore, he was in a fight about an hour before this all happened (some other loser has been arrested for pulling a makeshift weapon on Reece and is currently on bail for attempted GBH).

Anyway, these 2 short films about the Knife Angel are things made coming through the haze of all that horror above, together with Reece’s mum who found out about the Knife Angel project (and put me on to it), it was a welcome distraction for a month and it’s dedicated to the 3 police women took great care of us in our worst moments, thank you and, sorry for long explanation.

Don't know if people remember, but that was fathers day, of all fuckin days however, thats not important but during the Knife Angel event, I was made aware about the 'Online Safety Bill', (which came into effect in March last yr.) and how the authorities can easily access everything and, with Reece's illnesses (especially when high on drugs) he told us everything in messages (he was massive security risk in that way) had filter so, I'm hoping the police can railroad through all these cunts in the near future but, we'll see?

This is a normal post I giggled at your first line mate, thanks for that lol
And thank you for saying such kind words of encouragement to me, sorry tho, I didn't mean to mislead you, shouldn't of used the word spectrum, he wasn't autistic but rather a normal person before the epilepsy however, you'd be surprised how seizures mess with your mental health over time and, after a certain point, brain damage became apparent in him so, you'd easily tell he's a person with learning delays and poor self-awareness.

Even without recreational drugs or alcohol involved his condition was super aggressive leading to this thing called 'Post Ictal Psychosis',. Ictal is the medical term for seizures and patients in Ictal psychosis can be trapped in this alternative reality for weeks (if untreated) where they're not really in control but, are the author of their own mayhem, Reece was highly unpredictable and dangerous during these periods, even the mental health doctor told us, most sufferers of the condition are harmless (but maybe a danger to themselves) adding, 'when Reece gets this, scary!', that was his exact words. I researched it up as well, theres a famous case in America where an epileptic patient used 'Post Ictal Psychosis' as a defence in a murder trial.

But yeah, it is a shit hand and he did kind of have all his chances taken away with this illness but still could off lived a fairly decent existence if it wasn't for his environment, thanks so much for your comment, I will defo take your advice and make time for myself Thank you

YT's algorithm wants me to watch more similar things, so it regularly pushes exactly the same material plagiarised from humans, but made nonsensical and ultra-repetitive. I see so many of the same boxing and mma compilations because I once watched a popular video that's been copied by hundreds of AI grifters.

I'm seeing a lot of genuine looking fake accounts of real people, full of AI generated fake content detailing events that never happened.

Bizarrely I'm seeing a lot of fake animal 'stories' with visual vomit graphics and a script consisting of the same 3 paragraphs restated with tiny variations, over and over again. I'm seeing a bit of the revenge fantasy stuff that YT insists I need to become radicalised in some moronic way, and the American court procedures and bodycam footage designed to make me hate women and black people, but I block those channels completely even if they're real.

I worry that YT considers this kind of 'engagement' a good and useful thing for them, and that some super-algorithm is slowly turning me into a Manchurian Candidate or something. YT is fucked, almost completely untrustworthy, much like google.

Interestingly or not, since I made this rant the slop ratio reduced to a tiny trickle. I also blocked about 1000 sloppy channels since then, and I've cut my usage down in general... Maybe that's what YT wanted and now it's 'rewarding' me for changing my behaviour. Whatever the case, I resent and distrust youtube completely.

Ultimately I need a less invasive, toxic and abusive alternative to youtube. So far everything I've tried is scammy (crypto, pyramid schemes), gimmicky (AI, AI, AI, ooh a P2P cloud based video distribution platform), or deliberately made to be obscure and disjointed (mostly, I guess, for pirate streaming purposes). The older YT rivals have also turned into an AI snotfest. Archive.org has some good stuff but no bandwidth...

I enjoyed exploring 'Comedy Rock' - it has a high standard for examples including the arrestingly titled 'The Butt Cheeks Man' by The Very Nice Singer Man

This is a link post I have written a children's book about poo. I made this!


Published on January 15th by Bloomsbury, and illustrated by Gareth Conway (the guy who does the Greg The Sausage Roll books, so knows how to deploy brown), Poo! What? Where? is a fun, funny, strikingly information-dense book about that smelly stuff you push out of the smelly hole in your smelly bottom. I've done over 15,000 poos, mostly into or near toilets, so I know what I'm talking about.

NB. This is an Amazon link. The book is also available from less evil websites etc.

This is a normal post I don't understand his stuff, yet... it is really funny
this is excellent. I prefer seeing his material completely out of context thought. Makes it even better.
