I agree with you, but something jumped out at me while reading this thread. To a degree, the fear of “breaking something” is completely legitimate, but it’s based on not getting quick feedback from systems. For instance, if you are walking in a direction that you think is east, but the sun is setting ahead of you, you know you’re headed in the wrong direction. Computers often don’t provide such useful feedback, often leading users to “break things.”
Wtf – if you put more money in a glitchy vending machine, you’re gonna get yet more items.😑
Possibly a dumb question, so I tentatively pre-apologize: is LXC “Linux Container?”
In fairness, x11 is a bit of a dumpster fire and has been as long as I’ve used Linux (since 2003).
Bless you🙏
Why? Cuz companies mistakenly think stalking customers is savvy business.
Me, I’m big on free, but I recently noticed something… What was it?.. Someone told an anecdote about something they valued, and it seemed clear that it was because they paid. And it got me to thinking money is effectively now what church was thru the 1990s. And, like, is that weird and probably dysfunctional? Yes. Does that make it less true? No.
Your bar is high! Does it boot to a GUI? That’s mine, and it sounds like it doesn’t – so no YT.
/shrug that’s gotta be the most being scam I’ve ever heard.
You can do it!
Linux (esp Debian) loves tenacity.
If you really want to secure your computer, encase that puppy in concrete (after disconnecting it from power),
What a bizarre and terrible idea. I def think Twitter circa 2009 was the pinnacle.
I’ll hand it to Elon Musk, tho – the dude knows how to destroy value. I wonder if he literally sets it on fire.
Agreed 110℅.
I am not.
They’re really good.*
Personally, I think the term “AI” is an extreme misnomer. I am calling ChatGPT “next-token prediction.” This notion that it’s intelligent is absurd. Like, is a dictionary good at words now???
Lol. “I came to break some necks and chew some bubblegum – and I’m all out of bubblegum.”
In fairness, crumby books can hardly be blamed on AI. To quote my mother, “That train’s left the station.”
Like, the AI slop ones will probably have better writing, sadly.
I really don’t have this experience with ChatGPT. Every once in a while, ChatGPT returns an answer that doesn’t seem legitimate, so I ask, “Really?” And then it returns, “No, that is incorrect.” Which… I really hope the robots responsible for eliminating humans are not so hapless. But the stories about AI encouraging kids to kill themselves or mentioning books that don’t exist seem a little made up. And, like, don’t get me wrong: I want to believe ChatGPT listed glue as a good ingredient for making pizza crust thicker… I just require a bit more evidence.
Screenshotted just in case.
