it is wrong to want to be spoonfed your computing needs

Why though? It’s not like you are building your own OS every time on assembler level, or do you?
Making software more convenient is one of the reasons for having software at all.

That doesn’t mean turning it into an “opaque box” where company interests will be pushed. Having a more user experience oriented design in Linux distros can save a lot of time and frustration as well as make it more attractive to average users. Even power users, who work with Linux professionally will benefit.

And it just might start with something as simple as proper documentation of a package.

Shouldn’t be so frustrating in the first place.

Yes.

German police are surely not angles and they need an independent control institution like in denmark. But to speak of “state repression” is a wild exaggeration.

Samsung smart TVs already show a small ad on the home menu.

Hahahaha absolutely. :D The difference is, that they come from a 3D printer and that’s cool.

Thank you for the links!

Thanks for looking and providing a bit of insight!

I wouldn’t say that it necessarily expresses a certain opinion towards women. I think a lot of people used it just because that’s how it’s done. It’s a piece history, a “fun” tradition. A lot of people didn’t even knew that this was taken from a pornographic magazine.

However, thinking critically about it and considering a lot of good points, it’s surely not “fun” anymore and I also think it’s better to stop this.

Yes, let’s just shove everyone into one drawer and completely forget that some do it for fun, some out of financial necessity, and let’s also forget all the problems it can cause when using such an image in lectures, research and similar professional settings. /s

For those, interested in an overview about more criticism, just head to the according section on Wikipedia.

Yes. I think so. It just takes an exponential amount of energy and/or time. At some point it will stop due to energy limitations. Or will be stopped because computation time approaches infinity, even if all energy in the universe is available.

Also, now I think about the movie “The Thirteenth Floor”.

To be fair, you don’t need a very huge 3D printer for that, if you divide it into a lot of smaller parts which can be assembled later.

Idk, if we can already print steel though and whether we can make it structually sufficiently stable.

It’s not just text generating AI, like those transformer models, but also image classificators and generators, time series predictors, and a bunch of other stuff you get.

But yes, even though you seem not to like it, it is AI.

Copilot is no more “intelligent” than Clippy from Microsoft Bob in 1995.

I can’t share that experience.

It just appears to be to people who also have low intelligence.

That’s a bit condescending, don’t you think?

You get AI tools shoved down your throat everywhere nowadays. Whether you want it and it’s useful or not.

Nvidia driver fucking X in the arse without lube.

That’s also what I meant by capitalism “in it’s current form”. Yes. ^^

They just fuck with Kenyans. And that’s obviously okay, because they are not part of the western nations. /s
