Maaaaybe if I’m moving whole paragraphs around? But even then I’d probably cut and paste

What do you mean? He did step in, understood absolutely no context of the issue, told everyone to shut up, and then left without any real input. Fucking joke

And these social media outbursts aren’t accomplishing what they think they’re accomplishing.

I’m extremely technical, but not actively into Linux, though I’ve set up various distros dozens up times. These posts have driven me away from Linux in an extremely hard way - anyone with opinions like the Kernel team simply don’t deserve support, and Linus is clearly past his prime and making bad decisions. This has shown me that Linux is going to (likely already has) slowly stop improving due to its explicitly anti-progress leadership. Until a fork with good leaders manages to take a real market share, the OS will stagnate.

I’m sure this is a minority opinion, but to claim that the social media blitz hasn’t had its intended effect is objectively false. Fuck the kernel team.

I’m not worried about functionality, I’m worried about ads, AI, and privacy. Win11 is actively hostile on all three points

While under the Acti banner, it released the likes of Blur and James Bond 007: Blood Stone.

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of either of these games, and those were pretty prime years for gaming for me. Sounds more like Acti fucked the over an acquisition than anything, which wouldn’t be at all surprising

At best it would hamper some FOSS AI researchers that don’t have the resources to curate a dataset.

If you can’t source a dataset, then you shouldn’t be researching AI. It’s the first and single most important step of the entire process.

Obviously shitty, but you seem to understand that and are working to stop. Nobody was permanently or seriously harmed, and you’re working on making reparations to the person that you harmed the most, even if they don’t know it.

Sounds like you were a shitty kid that didn’t know better, and that you’ve gained some forethought. Sucks that it mostly came from fear of consequences for yourself instead of empathy to others, but it also seems like you’re on the right path.

It’s okay to grow and to learn how to be a better person. Keep going. Seconding the other commenter that suggested therapy - even if not directly about this.

Nothing alleged about it. The main app wraps your prompt in a China-friendly one - at this point, I think people have mined the prompt itself? Scummy, sure, but it’s also the same way that literally every other online AI service works.

And somehow, still, nobody has answered it 🤔 almost as if someone said they weren’t allowed to

Interesting how you completely avoid the question 🤔

Haven’t read the article as it’s paywalled to the max,

Don’t link to shitty sites.

I loved bumble when I was on it 🤷‍♂️ much, much higher hit rate than any other app
