I tried self-hosted AI agents so you don't have to!I wanted to see what options were available and took n8n and ollama for a spin to see what was possible.
There are some pointed criticisms about the entire concept, but I can definitely appreciate why people find the idea attractive.

Sir Trevor Chinn: The Tycoon Who Hijacked British Democracy for Israel
He likes to keep a low profile. But Sir Trevor Chinn is one of the most powerful men in British politics.
The retired businessman has donated millions to politicians, facilitated Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s rise to power, helped destroy the movement around Jeremy Corbyn, and, above all, has made sure that both major parties support Israel and its expansionist project in the Middle East.
MintPress News profiles perhaps the most influential man in the pro-Israel lobby and lifts the veil of anonymity he hides behind.
Chinn, McEvoy told MintPress, plays an “important but overlooked role in British politics.” Since the 1980s, he noted, Chinn has funded both Labour Friends of Israel (LFI) and Conservative Friends of Israel (CFI), pressure groups within the U.K.’s two largest political parties. He was also a member of the executive committee of the Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre (BICOM), the most influential pro-Israel lobbying organization in the United Kingdom.
As such, Chinn sits at the head of a massive influence operation aiming to make sure that Great Britain continues to support Israeli interests. The scope of this operation is staggering; pro-Israel lobby groups have funded the majority of the British cabinet. In total, 13 out of 25 sitting cabinet members have accepted money directly from Chinn, or pro-Israel groups, according to McEvoy’s investigation.
This includes many extremely powerful figures, such as Foreign Secretary David Lammy, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, and Health Secretary Wes Streeting. Chinn himself has donated hundreds of thousands of pounds to these individuals.

Sources mean nothing these days. I cannot name a single trustworthy newspaper anymore.
The only thing that matters is whether they have the evidence to back up their claims. On that Alan McLeod delivers like usual.
Generative AI is like cadmium. Useful in small quantities, toxic in large amounts. Always necessary to consider the trade offs.

“Bees have a clear economic pathway to justify—in human terms—their value,” Droege said.
Hollis Woodard, an assoc prof focused on native #bees at the University of California at Riverside, said the lab is “essentially irreplaceable.” She uses its data for her work researching native bees nearly every day. “If we lose this facility & we lose these people, the hit we’re going to take to tracking bees & trying to conserve them would be absolutely devastating,” Woodard said.

I already have my sights on the lands lit by the Southern Cross, but there's something so special about stargazing in the American West, I suspect I'll be back someday. After all, a vision like "Big Sky over Big Sur" (captured by yours truly) can't be resisted for long...

The theme was finally posted, and it is protagonist.
This is the protag from my first attempt at a game jam last year. Fwiw, I still have desire to work on this thing, so I made a short walking animation for her.
(The resolution leaves something to be desired. My instance won't allow gifs of a higher resolution, so I have to make do for now. Sorry 'bout that!)

The image features a striking black and white design that creates a sense of depth and movement. The background is entirely black, providing a stark contrast to the white elements in the foreground. The central focus is a black circular void, from which numerous white lines radiate outward, resembling a tunnel or vortex. These lines are composed of small, evenly spaced dots that gradually increase in size as they move away from the center, enhancing the illusion of depth. The lines curve and twist, giving the impression of a three-dimensional space. The overall effect is a mesmerizing, abstract pattern that draws the viewer's eye towards the center, creating a dynamic and visually engaging composition.

in reply to Anae • • •La imagen es una viñeta de cuatro paneles de un cómic. En el primer panel, un hombre mayor con gafas y una camisa roja está sentado en un sofá, leyendo un periódico. Tiene una expresión pensativa y dice: "¿Qué quieres para la cena...?".
En el segundo panel, el hombre sigue leyendo el periódico, pero ahora parece estar hablando con alguien que no está presente. Dice: "Carne sabrosa, salmón irresistible o pollo delicioso?".
En el tercer panel, el hombre sigue leyendo el periódico, pero ahora dice: "Tendré el salmón irresistible".
En el cuarto panel, una mujer mayor con gafas y una camisa azul entra en la escena y dice: "Estaba hablando con el gato". El hombre parece sorprendido y se da cuenta de que estaba hablando con la mujer.
La viñeta es humorística y juega con la idea de que el hombre estaba realmente hablando con su gato, no con la mujer.
