Flatpak?

So chrome OS but Microsoft version? As a Linux only user I feel for you guys. Windows 7 and XP seem kinda revolutionary now in comparison.

There’s some loopholes to jump through depending on hardware but that’s also because of windows.

How would you prefer people talk technology that allows machines to think, learn, and perform tasks that usually require human intelligence?

We could encode some behavior with mechanical automaton but we can encode far more behavior and more complex behavior with electronic computers. There’s no known strict limit beyond computation to the complexity of behavior we can encode. Now with a fully digitized fruit fly brain one can theorize about a fully digitized human brain. What would we call this if not artificial intelligence? How about other models that encode approximate behavior to human level intelligence?

The term has linguistic meaning and isn’t just marketing nonsense like calling food products all natural. That said there’s definitely been a ramp up of people calling essentially if-else chains artificial intelligence, lots of abuse of the term.

Sure, you know the term existed long before it became a financial buzz word right? Anyways in which sense are LLMs or NNs fundamentally flawed? I still believe your chief complaint is about the actions of people and not some mathematical structure much in the same way arguments about engagement algorithms on social media platforms is more about people and their choices than C++ or a binary tree.

I’m not saying the use cases that some have chosen for certain tools is neutral. Their behavior is indeed bad and should be called out. Ai for instance is at it’s core just a mathematical structure that has no intrinsic behavior, same for the concept of algorithms for social media or algorithms for drones or algorithms for the internet. Yeah some people use the internet to cause a lot of harm or even guide the outcomes of nations but is it the fault of html, CSS, and JavaScript? Not really. The problem is some companies, some people, some government officials and their choices.

So which algorithm is that? If you’re hinting at manipulating the populace because in fact they are easily programmed via social network manipulation. Yeah anything done maliciously is of course bad but I think that comes down to the use of the tools and not the intrinsic nature of the tools themselves. Algorithms are just math, it’s the will of the individuals wielding them that is corrupt and that seems to be your actual chief complaint.

That all depends on how it was made. Not all models cost that much. Chinese models were mostly produced for far less mostly.

Like which ones and why?

Why? Do you have that feeling towards other algorithms?

I mean in an old nuclear bomb that’s pretty much the situation. Use a conventional explosive to slam some plutonium like a sledgehammer and nukes have proven to be a strong deterrent when a country had them. Still a tool with a use case

If the tool don’t work then don’t use it. I wouldn’t try to unscrew something with chopsticks

Of course, it still has uses. Just not in home insulation.

It’s a tool, use it where it works and don’t where it doesn’t.

Linux is awesome and it’s also a whole bunch of people donating their time which comes with some limitations.

Apologizing because he changed his views or apologizing because of the backlash?

I’ve found it’s either just that it’s a lack of support issue aka not enough Linux users for that product or service to justify support or good support. Either that or whatever I needed was a project run by a single guy so it works kinda but also kinda not.

I guess one issue I used to run into particularly in development was conflicts in setting up a lot of things. Now with atomic systems and a sandbox for all my dev tools alongside snapshots that’s essentially dealt with. Also flatpaks can be a massive pain in the rear if one wants more direct CLI control or is getting other issues with the sandbox of the flatpak format.

I was really into the VanillaOS project for a little while but it’s somehow gotten worse instead of better, at least the last time I used it earlier this year.

Sidebar what was up with that whole Richard stallman it’s okay to be attracted to children situation? I totally forgot about it until this very moment.

There’s no perfect OS. There’s a lot of things about Linux that will drive anyone nuts. That said for a largely community driven project it’s amazing.

Free as in freedom. One of the last living things from the hippie movement, by the people, for the people. No governments required.
