I told you so, dear LLM evangelists.

Linux distros and BSD ports did that since the 90's. When Linux distros had barely a PM or just tarballs, Infomagic sold 4 CD full of libre software. When I had no internet at home, back in the day I bought 3 DVD's of Debian Sarge

CPAN too, just try Hailo under Perl to test an old-fashioned chatbot based on Markov chains where very small LLM's and Hailo converge if used with the advanced training options for it. Yes, it will pull tons of dependencies, (less with

Package managers are older than some users here. From CPAN/CTAN to ports under BSD's. Some pm's are badly maintained (Pip/NPM), while others are curated enough. Again, if you have GNU/Linux installed, install Guix,

Guix saves you from this. You can import NPM packages in a container (not even touching $HOME) and giving you a shell on the spot with just the dependencies and nothing more. Learn about 'guix import'. Oh, and you can install Guix

Free software apply for software made for humans, by definitions any LLM code can only have the license inherited from the previous work as it's a transformation work. In the end LLM's are just a source of legal troubles and pro

Engineers, maybe. Not the case with Mathematicians.

LLM's are not reproducible. Common Lisp, Coq and the like for sure are.

More like 1 = 0 + 1. Read about Lisp, the Computational Beauty of Nature, 64k Lisp from https://t3x.org and how all numbers can be composed of counting nested lists all down. List of a single item: (cons '1 nil) N

Computers games can have no video at all why the 'display' it's being sent over a serial output to either a display or a printed paper. Nethack/Slashem, text adventures, Sokoban, Trek... can be printed one sheet at a tim

Indeed, in this case a source port with a higher draw distance (as redriver did with Driver 2) would be far more preferable.

You are free to publish any ROM to any system, it's a basic right against both monopolies and freedom of speech restrictions. What you can't do is to ilegally pull propietary dependencies without permission.

The PSX one was open world too (Road Rash 3D?). There were tracks but you could go anywhere, it was and it's still amazing. If you play then under an emulator with just bigger rendering and a bilinear filter the game looks chilling eno

Law is not 100% exact. For instance, the age of consent in Spain it's 16, and you are adult by 19. You and a group of people had sex with a 15 yo. Your friends are well over 20 (24, 25...), and OFC trialed and jailed. But you, being al

Heh, with the BOE you need a Common Lisp expert in order to parse that . Some legal sentences look like a text from Marx, and not the Commie ones.

Cool. Now create a Usenet client for it and it will be the only sane way to post/read Usenet news under Android, because Emacs+Gnus it's powerful if you have a keyboard, but with a touchscreen it's an exercise of patience. No

I ran calypso.z3, tristam_island.z3 and a few more Zmachine text adventures under an interpreter created in PostScript. Also if I want I can cross-compile a static build of Frotz for Linux/Misc and emulate it under a RISC interpreter f

Rio and its predecesor in Unix v8/v10 did it better than X. In some cases we got the worst: - POSIX bloat vs Plan9's simple C and even simpler API - ioctl's vs everything it's a file - Complex socket spawning vs open() a

Install "Bulk Crap uninstaller", which is libre software. Begin uninstalling every bloatware you find.

GForth might have then for sure (Sqlite it's small and supported by even jimtcl) . Also, there's Factor, a Forth inspired language.

Virtual desktops in Unix predate Visual Studio. I'm pretty sure there was a concept of tabbed interfaces somewhere in the Amiga or BeOS or any other OS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_(interface) Don Hopkins hi

Opera had tabs. Tabbed under Unix had tabs. Dillo had tabs. TCL/TK had damn tabs in 1997.

Froom Doom ~1993 to the Unreal engine ~1998, used even for Deus Ex, in just 5 years. For GenZers: a bigger jump than the one from the 3DS to the Switch. By comparison, from the first Core Duo computers to today... we should have been roami
