China 1984 authoritarian CCP -racist slurs and stereotypes for good measure-

Nature is healing

It's one thing for a company to train a model with your code and then create a better copy of what you made and sell it for profit (which I think is an unrealistic thing to happen if their codebase is depending on AI slop code), and it's another thing that an AI is providing access to public information (the code) that you previously monetized to help people understand it better. I really don't see how that monetization model would have worked regardless of AI existing, at some point there are going to be enough people out there that understand the code that can build documentation of their own for free. I'm not a lawyer but I don't see how this violates a GPL license either.

The only thing FOSS projects have to be wary of about AI is slop pull requests, but code review still had to be done before LLMs existed anyway.

Also my two cents about the threads regarding Tailwind is that, what FOSS devs wanting to live doing what they do should really hate is not AI making it harder for them to monetize their projects in odd ways, but capitalism requiring them to monetize anything they do for them to be able to live while doing it. FOSS devs should be able to hand out their creations to society without worrying about putting food on the table, their work is no less valuable than that of any engineer working for the big corporations.

apologies for the english I am an american

lmao

I know it would be ridiculously ironic, but if any CSAM is in there could the authorities get you in trouble over its possession or even distribution?

Try to think why these supposed "threats" are such a big deal for an alliance of countries so far away from the region to be affected, and you might stumble upon the real reason why they hate China so much.

Spoiler alert, it's because they can no longer take advantage of China like they did when it was under the boot of the British. They hate that it's a sovereign country that works for its own benefit, and that their footholds in the region are unable to reverse the course of history as they'd like.

Hating on the humanities has been a talking point of the right wing for a long time, specifically because the empathy it nurtures leads to solidarity instead of survival of the fittest mentality. They say that these studies are useless to society, while capitalists are the only class that truly sits on top of society and leeches off of it

Still, adding feds to a group chat is a management issue, same as inviting people to your home

Maybe there'd be some hope for that to happen if everyone in the EU hadn't been conditioned to be racist as fuck against anyone to the east or south for centuries

Don't know if it's your taste, but my most recent favorite is The Dispossessed which is a political sci-fi kind of book about a brilliant mathematician who lives in an anarchist world

Really unfortunate wording in the title lol

This is usually a good idea, but I think Arch would be a bit too much for him

Still, any Debian derivative would be just as easy for me to help and also for him to find help online, so that's the main reason I'd choose Mint over Bazzite
