Microsoft: "we gonna screenshot every 3 seconds and feed it to Windows 11's AI assistant."

The Flemish government cookbook app (price 500 000) will be gone. App isn’t a buzzword enough anymore to pay the 5 euro hosting fee.

Instead they are launching an AI cookbook!

My (work) train was too punctual…. No delays on the trains home so it had to happen on the bus home… 😢
Well 3 AB30s IF we find where we left the 004.... It is lost....
Keep an eye on the ES train this week, there is lots of fun shunting scheduled like 3 AB30s and the pickup of our bike carriage 

SNCB gave up in Antwerpen-Centraal and all vending machines now have a staff member next to it…

If only we could use those people in some sort of office where they can issue tickets themselves with trained efficacy and tariff knowledge.

The WAPBackMachine works! There are lots of WAP sites in the waybackmachine. It seems that the WBM crawler actually followed links on WAP sites, despite them not being HTML, which means that there is a lot to find if you know where to look!

Funny that this program is very good at giving lots of information, like here are all trains even if they run only seasonal or weekends. Today’s systems just give you what you ask for and burry information…

And yeah the future AI companies want is that we have to just ask a chatbot for it… even worse… just give me information don’t let me beg for it

I have an early shift tomorrow so the dumping of the CD has to wait till tomorrow. So everyone can soon enjoy their own ARIdisc 💕

And this concludes the 5 minute history tour of a digital preservation of the lost ARI, an in house developed SNCB software package that our digital supercomputer in our pocket age even cannot beat.

Designing software for data processing and usefulness is a bit of a lost art…
