  6. Now let's allow our imagination to slip the surly bonds of earth, the way the creators of Star Trek did in 1979, and imagine a distant future, not just of the evolution of VGER but our ability to reach it and communicate with it.

  7. Music Day 14: "V'ger"...Voyager 1 is now billions of miles outside the heliopause, as far from that boundary as Neptune is from Earth, and speeding onward at about a million miles a day.

    And it will take a full 17,000 years to reach "only" one light year away from earth. And to think, the center of our own Milky Way is 28,500 light years from Earth...just wow.

    I love the humility of knowing this:-)

    Retro SciFi Film of the Week…

    Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979)

    This film is about a bald, long-legged alien… and other stuff.

    It’s hard to convey how anticipated this film was when it was released. The original TV series had been canceled a decade prior, which disappointed loyal fans and by time this film was made, the series had been widely syndicated and gathered a huge fan base. It was a really big deal. The first Star Trek movie, ever.

    Production for the film was a real mess. The suits at Paramount thought the thing was some kind of Star Wars knockoff and the script was rewritten several times before production began. They even wanted to turn it into a new TV series at one point. When production finally started, the script was still unsatisfactory to everyone. Creator Gene Roddenberry and director Robert Wise struggled over the project throughout. Leonard Nimoy, William Shatner and other cast members, and even the special effect guy were contributing to the script as the production was going on. The final script at the end of production contained only a fraction of what was in the original script when shooting started.

    In the end the narrative wasn’t the tightest story ever produced, but it was original. However, it lacked any contemporary social commentary, which was a hallmark of the original series. The special effects were fantastic (for 1979), as was the score.

    Douglass Trumbull (2001: A Space Odyssey) did the special effects which were almost entirely done with models, lighting, hand-painted mattes and photographic special effects; only a few simple computer generated images were used. The score was done by Jerry Goldsmith who continued on with the franchise, providing it with it’s distinctive theme music.

    Because the film was so rushed, Wise was not totally satisfied with it and a directors cut was eventually made years later, which he thought was the best edit of the film.

    Even with its flaws, I highly recommend this film.

  11. "In the Ambassador programme, NASA, SETI and OpenAI will develop a large language model and a set of starter prompts, designed to teach a range of concepts and languages from first principles. The final system will act as the primary payload for the new Voyager Series X probes"

    Freenode Commits Suicide - Evacuations Underway - Breaking News!

    [**PLEASE BOOST**]

    A few hours ago, under the direct intervention of the Crown Prince Andrew Lee of South Korea, beginning with about 700 IRC channells, Freenode staff began hijacking and purgings all channels that had mention of "Libera" in their channel topic.

    https://www.devever.net/~hl/freenode_abuse2

    More details in a minute, but first, just a short list of the sort of channels that have been seized by Mr. Lee in what can only be described a suicidal and vindictive usurpation of some of the most prominent names in the world of computer software:

    #wikipedia

    #intel

    #python

    #ubuntu

    #rust

    ##linux

    #openbsd

    # fosdem

    #clearlinux

    The Gentoo channels,   Haskel, Weechat, etc., etc., ad nauseum...

    Basically, the pillars of the software world, Linux, C, major Fortune 500 companies - you name it. POOF!

    Earlier articles on the subjects of what has been widely characterized and regarded as a hostile takeover of freenode in the Media were published here over the course of the past few days and fortunately, our registered projects with freenode and Libera were previously announced as having been secured as well.

    Only one of our channels has been affected, because the second wave of hijacking was administered by what we can only presume to be a misbehaving, poorly configured bot, in that it seized ownership of channels that merely had mentions of the string "Libera" or "Libera.Chat" by anyone in the channels.

    We received the following **Apology** from Andrew Lee with this statement, at 21:15:30hrs PST, posted directly in one of our channels affected by this second wave of hijackings:


    <snip>
    -rasengan- [Global Notice] In the recent policy enforcement, some channels were erroneously included. We greatly apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact us in #freenode-services or [email protected]. Thanks for your patience and choosing freenode!
    </snip>

    To that we say, Fuck you freenode, and Fuck you very much Andrew Lee - go eat a fucking dick you punk ass bitch!

    By tomorrow, the usual news media outlets will have published freenode's Obituary.

    I'm going to post more  discussion links to  follow below, but suffice it to say that the Earth is indeed flat for freenode, and that ship has sailed over the  edge into the abyss.

    In the meantime, we urge everyone who has long standing friendships and  associations with others still there to find them, and let them know where you'll be following the vacuum left after this implosion.

    comparison of channels that have had their topics forcibly changed to reflect that they remain the official channels for registered projects (Libera string removed from topics):

    Twatter is litterally on fire, it's such a mess that I just selected some  random post that embodies the type of activities going on there:

    It's total and complete fuckery.
