Right but this is about 1 dev using claude for lutris because he’s apparently going through a rough time in his life right now.

This one guy isnt to blame for the problems with the AI industry

So, it’s no longer being hidden, what’s the problem now? I just opened lutris, I don’t notice any crazy change. And the developer said this, “It was tremendously helpful in helping me catch up with everything I wasn’t able to do last year because of health issues / depression.”, so I don’t see some huge issue here.

AI is going to be everywhere, whether we like it or not. There are millions of active daily users on all various LLM platforms, are open source projects supposed to be immune from this? Of course not!

AI is already very limited to it’s context window, and tokens, so it’s not some magic pill that will make all your code perfect. I understand the AI backlash but people need to chill, it’s not some magic genie that will transform anything you throw at it, it’s still pretty limited.

I know eveything in France is not sunshine and rainbows, but come on, cheap high speed internet, fantastic pedestrian infrastructure, great social welfare program, and now linux being adopted by the government?

France seems pretty cool to me

And this is why I use an android based ereader. Something as simple as displaying words on a screen shouldn’t be held back by the will of any company.

Thats the kicker. I really want to move away from Youtube. Many are fine with just blocking ads, but its not rocket science to host a video over the internet.

Peertube seems like it can one day be great, but its currently just not popular enough, and its sad, because everyone talks about ditching google, except when it comes to youtube.

Funny, i’m also 20 years into linux, but i still love to tinker, and im slowly teaching my child how to use linux. I’m literally installing arch right now as I type this. I love customizing the OS, and ive built a post OS install script to handle all the software and driver stuff.

Very true, I began my own linux journey, almost 20 years ago (fuck I feel old) with Ubuntu, not for any other reason other than it being the only linux distro that had any mass appeal, relatively speaking. But it was a perfect introduction to linux.

Debain-based distros are the way to go for linux newbs, but i’m sure some tech savvy people might like an arch based distro instead. All in all, experimentation, especially when you’re young and not obligated to work or a wife and kids, is great for providing enough time to learn and grow in the linux world.

would WPA3 and pre-shared keys not be enough? If every endpoint is scanning for malware, using host based firewalls, monitoring access logs and activity, it could be possible no?

You know, i think i might learn how to set up ad hoc networks to prepare for this sort of thing. I know its essentially wartime there now, but without internet, its harder to transmit the truth from the eyes of the civilians. Fucking sucks whats happening there. Repressive government, but filled with people who simply want a life free of the conflict, the endless battles, various ethnic groups simply wanting freedom from those who have invaded and partitioned their people.

This cant end well. . .

As if decades of political instability and corruption weren’t hell enough, mr orange man says he’ll really show them!

lol, is P2P not good enough?

Yes, because I won’t be using their distribution.

fuck the authority, chaining down anything digital because the law is far behind the relative breakneck speed of technological progress.

I agree, and neither do I have all the answers. It is worth exploring, I’m just pessimistic most of the time.

Broad? Is youtube not social? Facebook? Tik-tok? Forums like reddit or lemmy, where people communicate directly, abiding by social norms and etiquette?

The internet and it’s myriads of networks is all information relayed globally via copper, fibre and radio waves. Never did I say that the internet itself is a social network.

55% of any message is conveyed through nonverbal elements (facial expressions, gestures, posture, etc).

Crazy how social media is seen as this thing that we somehow have a beneficial relationship with in such a short period of time. Impossible. The brain hasn’t changed much in the past thousands of years.

excellent take, I never thought of regulation on something digital like an algorithm (concerning social media) to be, I guess, possible when some government officials barely understand what an IP address is.

But that’s the thing, where’s the motivation for this board of experts to exist coming from? There is already plenty of empirical evidence to support the claims of the harms of social media, but in spite of this, change is glacial.

That is why I just generalize and say that social media is the problem, because most people won’t care to hear anything deeper. They are already addicted, and don’t care for a cure.

Indie games go brrrrrrr

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR

It’s so bonkers how most of the older generations agree that being on the internet cannot make you social, yet became the default method to communicate.

Ban it for everyone? I mean, lemmy itself is a social network platform, if you want it to be. But I know what you mean: social media being the most used platforms, Google, Facebook, Tik-Tok, etc . . . And for that, yeah, I do agree with a full ban. We need a cultural reset, where we aren’t being fed sensationalist bullshit and pure brainrot as entertainment via an algorithm trained on our insufficient capacity to regulate our attention.
