Competent or not, slop is still slop. The website in particular uses the exact same copy-paste layout/style produced by LLMs and used by pretty much every slop project out there. One very quick "slop or not?" test is to see i

No one is dead because I launched a nuclear missile. That doesn't mean I _should_ be given access to a nuclear missile.

There are many arguments one could make in favor of keeping AI around and using it, but your "argument" here is just about the lousiest and most naive argument one could possibly make, and shows a complete lack of empathy and unde

Probably more than we'd like to admit. This isn't new either ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25 for example). Thinking software developers have done no wrong (deliberately or not) ever is just borderlin

You're running an LTS release first released in 2024. What exactly did you expect was going to happen?

Ah yes, so if say Hitler says "millions of people should die" then it's not violence, it's "just" words.

Surely they can just ask Claude Code to fix this? After all, coding is a solved problem right?

So how is this different from Fedora CoreOS or bootc/RHEL image mode?

This is just the typical FOMO nonsense pushed by AI fans. It's the exact same as seen with many past hypes, and every time the result is a lot more nuanced than those fans claim. It wasn't that long ago that people were claiming M

Considering the state of The Netherlands over the last two decades, I can't help but feel this report is straight up bullshit. The only way I can see The Netherlands rank this high is by only asking two people and some sheep in the mid

Is this why software transactional memory is so prevalent today and the actor model is barely used?

I haven't looked deeply into either, but how does this compare to the combination of Clevis and Tang that e.g. Red Hat/Fedora seems to favor?

For those looking for a more extensive article about bootc, I recently wrote about using it in https://yorickpeterse.com/articles/self-hosting-my-websites-... , including a comparison to some other existing tools.

I think sysusers _can_ technically run quadlets because you can log in as them, but it's definitely not what they're meant for so it's probably not going to work forever.

The type of people complaining about this are usually the people you don't want in your community to begin with, so I doubt Gleam is missing out here.

A user friendly distribution would be something like Fedora or Ubuntu, not "Arch but with some optimizations that probably won't matter much"

It's very much privatised in the sense that it's operating on a for-profit business model, rather than a for-benefit model.

For Linux this will vary between distributions and configurations. For example, based on some testing I did today using mkosi [1] (for reasons unrelated to this discussion), a bare-bones Fedora 43 installation uses about 130 MiB of RAM, whi

The Netherlands has a very similar problem: the train system was privatized in the late 90s/early 2000s and has been going downhill since the 2010s or so. While it's still better than Deutsche Bahn, it's just so much worse co

Thank you for mansplaining what color calibration and accuracy means, but I'm well aware of how it works due to my background in photography and having spent plenty of time calibration displays in the past. In particular, there's
