It’s reasonable to be annoyed by this.
I’ve built automatic tools within client software that handle file types and basic security better than this, < 5 years into my career as an inexperienced dev.
It’s crazy that not only is executable downloading not blocked by default for a media downloader, but as fast as I can tell it’s not even doing magic bytes based format detection…?
Wait, wtf, this isn’t on by default??
I have a literal HDD in a pelican case.
I plug it into my NAS periodically, clone over to it, scrub for bit rot, put it back in the case and drop it at my BILs.
Plenty good enough.
Pmuch this.
How do they feel about machine language translations? It’s been “AI” (ML model) since the late 90’s.
Traffic prediction?
Medical scan data processing?
And so so many more specific uses of ML models that have been a part of daily life for literal decades.
Call out LLMs specifically.
Good luck.
Lemmy is damn near the when it comes to wanting to hold an opinion on a topic without having first understood that topic.
Yeah, it should inflate to 15TB or more I think
Such a shame that Wayland did away with accessibility APIs which makes switching a hard stop for those of us with disabilities that rely on software that works with these APIs.
They work with X11, which had consistent APIs, but Wayland leaves it up to each distro to implement their own APIs, if they do at all, fragmenting the ecosystem.
Hell, even mouse acceleration curves are skuffed now, it really sucks.
Every thread has one Linux bro, stumbling around dazed and confused, still searching to understand why people use a different OS. Always asking “Why do people even use that?” Ignorant of the litany of reasons the real world behaves the way it does.
Windows sucks, in a lot of ways, we get it. But holy hell find a different schrick.
Eh. I use Usenet and honestly the reliability sucks. I almost never successfully get quality media from there. It’s either missing too many blocks, doesn’t exist, or is grossly mislabeled.
