  • It is obvious, but we have so many liars lying to everyone and each other about AI that they get away with it. Skilled bullshitters shitting up clouds of smoke and using every manipulation tactic in the world.

    Some hard evidence makes it easier to prevent their damage.

  • Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that! PCs refuse to shut down after Microsoft patch

    Jump

  • Nah. Gonna stick to gaming on my GNU GUIX through Proton thanks.

    Linux is clearly not only good enough, but simpler too.

    It's just a ton of perception, habits and sales pipelines that need moving now. If electronics stores started putting out Linux Gaming PCs, nobody buying them would be worse off than Windows. That has been true for well over a year.

    Jump

  • I keep seeing the "it's good for prototyping" argument they post here, in real life.

    For non-coders it holds up if you ignore the security risk of someone running literally random code they have no idea what does.

    But seeing it from developers, it smells of bullshit. The thing they show are always a week of vibing gave them some stuff I could hack up in a weekend. And they could too if they invested a few days of learning e.g. html5, basic css and read the http fetch doc. And the learning cost is a one-time cost - later prototypes they can just bang out. And then they also also have the understanding needed to turn it into a proper product if the prototype pans out.

  • Hey I am not in need of convincing haha. Am Linux gamer and genuinely find it easier than Windows already.

    Jump

  • It is.

    And honestly, remembering the stuff I had to do to play the original Doom at a LAN party back in the day.

    • Buy a sound card (some PCs came with, mine didn't)
    • Install the sound card drivers correctly
    • Edit the computer's config.sys file to assure the operating system drivers were loaded in such an order as to allow enough of Bill Gates' 640 kb RAM available to load a game
    • Borrow (!) a network card from my dad's computer, and open up the PC to jam it in there
    • Install network drivers
    • Path the physical coaxial network cables through all PCs and terminate them correctly
    • Configure the game to know which direct memory address (bank 1) and hardware interrupt request id (5) it needed to talk to the sound card
    • Yes hello also find a smaller mouse driver and load it correctly because by now all the networking and audio stuff is making those 640kb tight

    We all did that back then!

    If someone was a "gamer" they were not afraid to do this because they either knew how or knew a friend who was happy to help.

    Compare that to what I do today that most gamers consider "mind-numbingly super nerd impossible bullshit lol linux sux", running GNU GUIX:

    • Find a channel for the nvidia drivers. Add it to my system config, 2 lines.
    • Find a channel for Steam. Add it to my system config, 2 lines.
    • Oh no I had to add 2 more lines for nvidia by following clear documentation.

    O hey everything just works. Proton kicks in automatically.

  • Instead of waiting a few more years for Linux to reach the level of ease-of-use needed to overtake Windows, MS is being sporty by moving the goal closer.

  • True and true. Though my usecase is just to keep it alive for a week or two. I can't maintain it long term.

  • What have scientists discovered very recently that most people should absolutely know ?

    Jump

  • I have done published computer science research and am therefore a scientist.

    I recently discovered that to keep potted basil plants from the grocery store alive longer, I must water them correctly: Every day you must fully soak under room temperature water, then hold over sink until it stops dripping.

    CrowdStrike saying "we are safe" but then later doing a fuckup does not constitute intention to defraud.

  • Grok was still able to produce sexually explicit images, and that restrictions, such as paywalling certain features, may not fully block access [...]

    Charging money for revenge porn didn't work as a "restriction"? Demanding people paying to access CSAM didn't "fully block" it?

    Whoever at Reuters allowed that sentence to form is just cooked.
