“Sure we destroyed the planet as we knew it, but for a brief moment in time, we increased value for shareholders!”
It’s more depressing than we weren’t paying for lunch
Because billionaires lobbied congress to reduce budget for public schools
Why don’t businesses do away with free and go to a completely paid model?
Let’s continue on this path of thinking: Customers already pay using their data. So if you want to show ads you have to pay customers since you are scrapping their data?
Ok then hear me out. Let free content supported by ads die out. Make everything paid.
Because Redhat has IBM hands shoved up through it’s ass upto it’s brains so it’s days are numbered.
Don’t underestimate IBM honchos to fuck up a good thing. Recently heard Redhat dropping dev support for a bunch of packages in fedora or something.
The moment someone fucks up… open source always brings alternatives. See: open office vs. Libreoffice… the bunch of firefox derivatives.
The AFD disagree with you
When you kill people who say otherwise… all there is left is people who praise you… either out of fear or out of stupidity.
I guess most people can’t afford (both time and money) to run an LLM just to have a saner browsing experience. So i suspect the key to adoption would be for the community to band together and spawn some LLM servers for the community backed by donations or other sustainable practices.
The future is probably once again crowd computing. We could probably use the federated network to distribute LLM requests from the community and load balance among those that are running LLM endpoints.
A fool and his money are parted
Oh I am thinking of them… how to murder shareholders in various unique ways… could be neat game idea too!
We already paid for the Internet though.
That’s like saying we should gouge out our eyeballs if we don’t want to see banner ads in real life. Fuck that noise.
Someday even the air you breathe will be sold by a corporation… then your comment will appear silly.
Let’s say we continue down this path. Soon you can’t even live the way you want because some corp will control things like when you eat, when you sleep, what media you consume,… oh wait…
I think I can distill many of the replies to this question in a few checks that may apply generally (exceptions abound, and i could just be wrong)
Are you intimately familiar (subject matter expert level) with the nasty outcomes of what you would be doing on a daily basis at this company? If yes its better it was YOU and not somebody else.
How much separation is there between what you do and the nasty outcomes? If you pull the trigger on a drone… I get thats unacceptable to some people.
Does not doing the activity make something else even more worse? (Frying pan vs. Fire dilemma)
Are you only doing this because there’s no other real choice? (Poverty)
So people never accomplished anything on Unix?
Microsoft terminal. It has profiles for each connection and Ligature support for fonts. Font rendering is good. Theming is nice.
Edit: in the linux world i like konsole and xfce terminal.
It’s PR by Microsoft. I am beginning to doubt the intelligence of many humans rather than that of ChatGPT considering these kinds of comments.
Don’t treat existing code/design/archtecture is sacred until it’s backed up by static analysis proving it is bug-free.
Young people may perhaps be even doing it deliberately as a protest.
