@KaiserKitty @xianc78 windows users like this want to fight people online like console fanboys do on the weekend (the real way to subvert linux is just to install people in positions of power)

@xianc78 My thing is more idk why you are actively watching and commenting on Linux content when you are just saying the same stock shit every time. Esp since ppl spread so much Misinformation about SteamOS. SteamOS is tailor made for a small number of mini PCs. It probably not be a viable desktop OS especially for someone with a HDR VRR monitor. Proton/Wine is not exclusive to SteamOS. SteamOS is not the only Linux distort supported by a big corporation. If you really want a SteamOS like experience for a home theater PC you can just set steam to open in big picture mode or use Bazzite. SteamOS will not magically fix every issue you have with Linux just because Valve = Good.

Can we ban Windows users from ever commenting on Linux videos? I dont need to hear about you totally wanna switch but muh adobe muh CAD muh GTA online muh valorant muh Ill wait for SteamOS to hit desktop. Annoying thing more annoying then Linux Evangelicals is the nuclear tier cope from Winblows users anytime they are faced with an actually functional OS. Like I get you are still offended over those Mac ads from the Vista and being bullied in middle school for having an android

Youtube just recommended me a very... possibly concerning video.

Basically, end to end encryption may be effectively compromised due to AI companion software being able to read whatever's going on on your screen. I highly recommend disabling any AI software that comes pre-packaged with your operating system if this is at all possible. If it's not, then switch to a Linux distribution for your safety.

Windows 10's demise nears, but Linux is forever theregister.com/2025/01/28/win by @sjvn

Want to keep your old computer running? Can't stand #Windows 11? Then, it's time to give serious thought to switching to desktop #Linux.

@gabriel @xianc78 GPL only protects software distribution. AGPL protects networked usage as well. facebook isn't distributing linux.

What type of series (be it books, movies, or video games) do you prefer? Would you rather have a series that could theoretically go on forever (e.g Mario, Call of Duty, etc) or a series with a definitive end-point (e.g Earthbound/Mother, most book series etc.).

Nothing says "stuck in the 90s" more than calling flash drives "jump drives".

Exactly. People keep calling this a "Sputnik moment" and that means MORE money will be plowed into US AI, not less. It also means that OpenAI will stop slow-rolling releases and will show us the good stuff now instead of dribbling it out over the next 3 years like they probably originally planned.

@caekislove I bought stonks yesterday because I thought this was a speedbump and that this would spur investment in US AI out of panic.

I did not expect this, but I am now making money either way. :konata_happy:

They just blocked new registrations to DeepSeek unless you have a Chinese telephone number because they know the benchmarks they published were BS and that DeepSeek hallucinates like a psychotic person. They want you to believe the hype because if you actually use it, it's clearly around 2022 GPT-3 level.

Does this count as a GPL violation?
(Preventing people from sharing/accessing the source code?)

RE:

Has anyone forked DeepSeek and removed the pro-CCP biases yet? I want an AI that is completely neutral as possible.

From tunes.org/wiki/no-kernel.html

> A term describing a system without a kernel. The idea looks like it is original as far as operating systems are concerned, but it is so natural that for any other kind of software (and one of our points is that there should be no such privileged notion as that of an "Operating System" well-separated from "Applications") where there isn't such a stubbornly overwhelming tradition, it is the very idea of a kernel that looks odd.

> Software in a no-kernel system works just like most any software: various objects interact, each doing its part of the work. The difference compared to software in kernel-based systems? No-kernel software is not limited to a single centralizing entry point like the Unix syscall() or DOS interrupts, whose overhead, limitations, bugs and misdesign you must cope with or work around. Instead, objects can directly interact one with the other, and you can upgrade/extend/modify any unlocked part of the system anytime.

The Arctic was supposed to be ice-free by 2013. It wasn’t. The Maldives were supposed to be underwater by 2018. They aren’t. How many failed predictions before they admit it’s a scam?
