Sounds like the real problem is just data centres being in the wrong places, sucking the wrong resources.

That’s just a side effect of it being open. Much more so as compared to Gnome.
So, while I may have my reservations regarding AI, I’ll not be trying to push out people making AI related KDE software.

Oh shit. I just read the context that post was made in.
Now I’m gonna have to filter through KDE applications myself, to determine which ones are usable.

I initially followed on their plans for that thing and from what I remember, they were going to include the older ones too.
But I’d think they would at least be willing to do something trivial like a rebuild for a big name like CERN, if they just called ‘support’.

“trivial”, because it doesn’t require many expensive man-hours, just an additional entry in whatever batch build config they use.

Considering how I end up saying worse, when I get 100+ line changes of code with a commit message that only illustrates 1 of the changes, I don’t think I care about anyone being “adjusted”.

This seems like the correct link:

Why are your company hiring such lazy devs?

(Interrogatory) Statement of the decade.

It’s not Open Source.
The other guy is being paid to push that slop. And he’s paying out of that, for AI cloud services.

AI “brainwashed” me into hating it, by increasing the amount of work I needed to do to fix the AI user’s code.

2. Allows any and all LLM use provided that:

• the tools are not legally problematic
• the LLM output does not violate another copyright
• the contributor assumes full responsibility
• they’re not used for bulk operations without prior discussion
• private data is not sent to cloud services

So, filtering out > 90% of cheap slop?

I would like something like point 3, with “for everything” replaced with option 2.

Yeah, let’s use infectious diseases for socialising with people.
Cough on the face of the person you want to say hello to… Wait… People already do that.

There was a doctor who said to me, “computer games can be addictive”. This was after I told her I play games, so she was pretty much implying that I was getting addicted. This was when I hadn’t played for over a month due to lack of time from my 9 to 6:30 job.
The same doctor bragged about how she couldn’t go about her day without drinking coffee right after waking up.

She said those 2 things within the same 5 minutes.

The effects of technology do not occur at the level of opinions or concepts, but alter sense ratios or patterns of perception steadily and without any resistance.

This is a nice one.
And I see it happening right in front of my eyes at work. ‘How it is used’ will defer by the individual and specially for new tools, there will always be a generation of suffering.
Project Management, Jira/scrum etc had one (I’d say, still ongoing for most workplaces, that haven’t figured out the correct match). This one will too; probably more of it.

Loved the “for AI only” Section.

No magic. It’s all just software.

I did REJ a few times to recover from problems with a VM causing problems with S3 sleep.

They even went for something as simple as amdgpu-fancontrol-git, which doesn’t even get any updates!
btw I had just downloaded it separately and changed the script to match my stuff, so I wouldn’t have updated.

I think Dillo might work fine too.
Not a modern browser though, as it hasn’t been updated for HTML5.

You seem to not be taking into consideration:

• lag
• extra information required for graphics stuff, like shadows

The reason your client computer needs to know the opponent’s location when they are still 1m on the other side of the wall, is because, within the next 100ms, you might make a jump+move action which lets you see their shadow or the tip of their weapon.

The shadows and reflections need to be calculated on your system or the server would be doing too much work and if you find the opponent pop up where they clearly were not, 50ms ago (because the server just told you now), you won’t be particularly happy either (I know I won’t).

The future of it is no execute.

Had they added a cell SIM slot to the deck, I would have just bought that.

Considering that they are the only pro-Linux company in a position to start delivering to my country, that might just be my only option.
So, as long as they let me install custom stuff without restriction and have enough Linux support for the hardware they choose, they don’t even need to do any special repairability stuff for me to happily give them my money.
