Is there any Linux distro thats anti-AI?

Reply in thread

Honestly I say to expand your horizons. I use Linux, Windows, Mac and have dabbled in BSD and Irix. I’m a big believer in “best tool for the job”. Sometimes that’s Windows, sometimes it’s Linux.

Once you start learning more of the OSs you actually realize how similar they are at the lower levels and gives you an appreciation of where they went. Hell, pretty much the networking stack as we know it came from BSD.

And when people say they got used to Windows, they would be chided for giving in and they should “just take the plunge” and switch to Linux. Now that Linux is being assimilated, you want to hold on to it. Why not just take the plunge and go BSD, or fork the kernel

The originals ending is a scrambled mess IMO because they ran out of manga/LN content and had to make up their own thing. I really don’t think it turned out well at all.

I do agree that it fleshed out the earlier arcs better but that’s because they were dragging their feet for time and new content. The pacing of Brotherhood is just right from start to finish.

Xbox wants you to pay 24 to 40 cents per hour to stream games you already bought: Time-based a la carte charges come on top of the purchase price for the games themselves.

This is why I am amassing a library of games and media that can all be consumed locally. The day that becomes the default is the day I stop paying for any of that. I don’t need “the new thing” or “you must watch this”. I have plenty of stuff to keep me entertained till the end of time.

The bitch is going to be components but I’m making sure I can work with things across multiple generations and have spares just in case.

Trump officials asked CISA to secretly hack a voting machine — and not disclose any vulnerabilities they found

Are there true electronic only voting machines in use? At least in my county, you go to one machine, pick out your choices, it prints out a slip with your choices (in plain English) and barcodes. You then go feed it into another system that scans it to record it and puts it into a locked box.

If a recount is ever called you have a paper copy with the actual names that were voted for.

For one value, yes…. But for 8 different keys having stupidly low numbers? They either had a seriously faulty RNG, or more likely were hand creating the keys.

Texas’s Biggest County Shatters Early Voting Records

Reply in thread

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you (assuming you’re a Texan capable of voting)

This “it doesn’t matter” line is complete defeatist bullshit. You can’t gerrymander state office. Hinojosa can oust governor hot wheels if we get out there. Talarico has a good shot of people vote.

Trump won because of the nearly 1/3 of voters who “it can feel pointless”.

I’m Texan, I’m progressive and you can be damn sure I’m voting.
