ChatGPT
Well I guess I should a least mention that ChatGPT which uses AI has been a talked about thing for a few months now. It’s like Alexa at first…very interesting. But you also realize it’s apparently woke! Which is very annoying. I think I read something about Microsoft’s Bing incorporating it into it’s search.
Camera comparison
Total amateur comparison. I had to reduce size to 1440×1080 and export to a 95% jpeg in order to reduce the size enough for WordPress to allow upload. Image program reports original resolution, Phone 4160×3120, Camera 4320×3240 I was surprised that my old camera had more megapixels (14.1 released 2011) than my phone (13 released …

Julia’s Birthday
Saw a tweet saying Julia (the language) is 11 years old today…Valentine’s Day
Startpage
I have been trying out Startpage search for a week or so. But going back to DuckDuckGo for now. Because Startpage seemingly doesn’t offer sentence or word completion or close match in results. At least that’s my perception. Which is important to me. I often use this feature as a spellcheck.
Raspberry Pi’s
I meant to comment on this a few days ago. I find it ridiculous that Raspberry Pi’s are so hard to get…hence expensive. The main reason they became popular was their surprising low cost and size. That’s what attracted me to them. Now apparently people are willing to spend $150 and more for one. I …
