  • This is mildly infuriating?

  • First guy looks really happy he forgot the BBQ tools.

  • I mean, it will be. The AI friend is always available, always knows what to say, never fights with you, and never messes up (ideally).

    However, all those things are part of the human element: and at the end, you’re still talking to a computer. The AIs are just trying to please you. A person can actually love you, and that’s something else. And I’d take that over the perfect chatbot any day.

  • AI’s not bad, it just doesn’t save me time. For quick, simple things, I can do it myself faster than the AI. For more big, complex tasks, I find myself rigorously checking the AI’s code to make sure no new bugs or vulnerabilities are introduced. Instead of reviewing that code, I’d rather just write it myself and have the confidence that there are no glaring issues. Beyond more intelligent autocomplete, I don’t really have much of a need for AI when I program.

  • Journalists use AI to write longer articles. People use AI to summarize those articles.

    The circle of LLMs.

  • If someone had made the active choice to use Firefox, I think they’d notice if it was replaced by Edge…

  • Over a year now, mine still hasn’t :)

  • They’re both pretty on par for the most part. If it’s too much of a hassle, there’s no real need to switch.

    Now that Gitea is owned by a for-profit company, people are afraid that they’ll be making anti-user changes. This, Forgejo was born. It pulls from Gitea weekly, so it’s not missing anything. It’s also got some of its own features on top, but they’re currently pretty minor. Also, most of the features end up getting backported back to Gitea, so they’re mostly on par with each other. However, many features find themselves in Forgejo first, as they don’t have the copyright assignment for code that Gitea does. Additionally, security vulnerabilities tend to get fixed faster on Forgejo. They are working on federation plans, however, so we’ll see how that pans out.

    Overall, there’s no downside of switching to Forgejo, and you’ll probably be protected if Gitea Ltd. makes some stupid decisions in the future. However, at the moment, there’s no immediate advantage to switching, so you can stick with Gitea if you’d like.

  • It’s very much intended. Cinnamon was forked from GNOME 3 when it was released. It was intended to preserve the old GNOME 2 layout, but ended up evolving into the Cinnamon we know today.

  • I mean, that randomness is just faked. Keep a consistent seed and you’ll get consistent results.

  • I mean, there’s probably some workaround involving faking the microphone, right?

  • I’d buy one if it were reasonably priced.

  • Outside of programming circles I’ve been surprised how little people know what != means.

  • I would do a cool S.

  • No problem! Actually, System76 is currently working on rewriting the COSMIC desktop in Rust (or really, just writing a new DE in Rust). It’s a pretty ambitious project that should hopefully get released some time this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if the lead redox dev was working on it too: low-level Rust knowledge is exactly what they need.
