That Claude Desktop thing yesterday made me wonder what I could run locally and as most people know, that's LLAMA. comes with ollama which makes it super easy to set up different models (not just LLAMA). It took me like 5 minutes to set something up and start asking it questions. It's pretty slow on my computer, which gives a good idea of how much energy this shit is wasting (). I have no actual use for it, but it's nice to have the option just in case.

Elected politician in these regions failed to warn the population on time.
The AEMET already warned authorities since Tuesday 28 of October but Valencia right-wing (PP) "climate skeptics" governor, Carlos Mazn, didn't trigger the warnings until 8:30 PM.
The population was already trapped by that time.
Many business still demanded employees to keep doing their job!

More than 90% of the households in eastern Spain hit by catastrophic floods that killed at least 205 had regained power on Friday, though thousands still lacked electricity in cut-off areas that rescuers struggled to reach.

Climate change poses an urgent and immediate danger to our environment, our planet, and the very future of life on Earth. Together, we can protect our planet by holding our leaders accountable to the will of the people:

Over the past 65 years, the rate at which atmospheric CO grew, increased from less than 1 ppm/year in the 1960s to 2.5 ppm in the 2010s.
Last year saw a record increase of 3.36 ppm.
So far this year, we're 3.54 ppm higher than last year...

What doesn't even mean to rebuild, when next year, another extreme weather event will pile on another round of damage The assertions of mainstream economists, like Nordhaus, assured the world that climate change inflict marginal consequences on the global economy, even though climatologists knew this as false.

The low pressure system just north of Panama now has a 70% chance of becoming a tropical storm. It has a healthy circulation at this time, and is in the warmest waters available. If it becomes a tropical system, I suspect rapid development like we saw with Milton.

The Atlantic storm west of Portugal which had 65mph winds yesterday has a 40% chance of developing tropical characteristics... That far north in November. This shouldn't even be possible.

The hurricane season, despite statistically being nearly over, is still quite active. Be safe!

Deep may be under-reported, study says
The majority of previous studies on marine heatwaves have focused on surface signals based on widely available satellite observations of sea-surface temperature. Researchers used observational data from more than two million ocean temperature profiles from global oceans. The study found that 80% of marine heatwaves below 100 metres are independent of surface events.
