I mean obviously we here all use Arch btw Linux (yup, each and every one, no exceptions allowed, dontchaknow? 😜), but if e.g. your bank uses Windoze then when Microdick decides to replace their calculator with a SAS LLM app - and ban all alternative computation apps from their store (whatever its called) - then that will impact you as a customer?
Just like computers used to work fine offline, before MS claimed that it was outright mandatory to connect to the internet. LLMs today are simply a new round in the same old game.
Where is that guy who would tell you how in nineteen eighty eight the Undertaker would throw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummet sixteen feet through an announcer's table?

Do you have any idea how shit this image is when you're on actual sloe internet? This is torture
Oh fuck you lol
