Er (næstum) skítsama hvernig þú stendur þig þetta tímabil, legend

Ef gervigreind og róbótar taka yfir störf, getum við þá plís byrjað á bitcoin gaurum 🙏

Enska deildin búin að breytast í ítölsku deildina í 90s

Svo innilega verðskuldað. Kjartan er langbesti vísindablaðamaður landsins visir.is/g/20262855751d…

Skál fyrir þér Özur Lárusson. Besti nágranni í heimi og alger öðlingur. Hvíl í friði frábæri einstaki maður.

Fyrir samhengi. Fólk fær peningaglampa í augun því það ætlar að leigja íbúðina sína á svínslega háu verði. Megi þeim ekki verða kápan úr því klæðinu.

@baader_astro The solar screen is fantastic! By far my favourite solar equipment to use when showing people our sun. Especially great with kids. Never tried this setup though, using the flip mirror. Is it good?

We’re at the UK Practical Astronomy Show today showing a selection of our accessories & our scale 3d printed dome model too. Our solar product selection especially the new Solar Projection Screen is really attracting a lot of attention. #pas2026 #astronomy

SpaceX is proposing to launch 1 million satellites into orbit. And one dept of the US Government has the authority to decide the fate of the night sky for all mankind. Ours could be the last generation to see the stars. Speak up! darksky.org/news/open-lett…

Ný bók á leiðinni . Með henni fylgja að sjálfsögðu sólmyrkvagleraugu. 😎

This makes for very uncomfortable reading. trib.al/sGV2N4G

@nickelbv En gaman að heyra! Fleira bætist vonandi inn á næstunni. En nei, því miður missum við af tunglmyrkvanum á þriðjudaginn. Þyrftum að vera í Ameríku eða Kyrrahafið til að sjá hann. :( Fáum þó djúpan deildarmyrkva 28. ágúst icelandatnight.is/is/sogur/deild…

Uppáhalds síðan mín akkúrat núna. Erum mikið að tala um síur, sólmyrkva og græjur sem við viljum kaupa. solmyrkvagleraugu.is @saevarhb sjáum við rautt tungl þriðjudaginn?

The supposed great "Planet Parade" of 2026! This is bright Venus, dimmer Saturn above, and very dim Mercury right of Venus low in the dusk twilight Feb 28. I could not see Mercury even in binoculars, but the camera picked it up. With and without labels. Details in Alt Text.

Make art not AI slop

My time on X.​com has given me the impression that a large faction of the tech elite are absolute f*cking morons who circle jerked themselves into thinking they possess deep wisdom

@haukurh Einn kassa takk 🍻

Þetta er ekkert eðlilega næs

Sunrise across Plato and Vallis Alpes. Dominating the scene here along the north-eastern rim of the Mare Imbrium is the large, dark-floored crater Plato, approximately 100 km wide, with a smooth, low-albedo lava plain interior. Its irregular, jagged rim casts long pointed shadows at this time, highlighting peaks up to 2 km high. To the right is the prominent Vallis Alpes which cuts a straight, linear gash through the Montes Alpes mountain range. Through its centre runs a long sinuous rille which is around 0.6km wide - similar to Hadley but longer and narrower. The surrounding terrain is heavily cratered and textured, with numerous smaller impact craters and high mountain peaks casting prominent shadows.

An incredible amount of bullshit coming out AI CEOs these days. They are totally clueless about basic economics, but it is a giveaway - the are desperate to hype the abilities of their products. That to me is a pretty clear indication that they are running out of money...
