I made a new bot to monitor Earthquake or Gempa Bumi in Indonesia in real time. 🌍 🏃 🏠

I saw a few BMKG bots here but all of them are either offline or not posting anything for a while, that's why I decided to make one for myself so we can check the latest news about Earth Quakes on fediverse. 😄

This is another reason why I don't trust proprietary softwares.

Remembering back in the day when we'd put little dust covers over our computers after we turned them off and it's not really the dust covers that seem archaic but the idea that we'd turn the computers off

@mjg59 blame it on the internet and the needs to be online constantly. As a cherry on top most people use smartphones as their main means of communication so they always expect everyone and everything to always be online.

PR guy at wacom: Fuck. FUCK FUCK FUCK! This whole AI shit is worrying budding artists so much, they're giving up on their careers! Our tablet sales are tanking! This AI craze is doing nothing for us! What a lemon! Unless... hmm! What if if we used it to generate ad illustrations? We could cut costs and at least squeeze some lemonade from this...

<a little bit later>

PR guy: oh no

@lritter it's weird that they don't hire artist to draw it instead. Why choose AI? Do they feel that their tablets aren't good enough for drawing?
