>Corporatism != capitalism

Samesame after a while if unchecked, just play cyberpunk 2077 ;)

>Stop buying Chinese made stuff.

Correction:

Stop buy stuff.

>Capitalism is not inherently bad as such.

Unchecked Capitalism always leads to Mono/Duopolies aka Mafia. The best of both World is maybe called Social-direct-democratic-capitalism.

>What we see right now in the USA, though, is a mafia. That has nothing to do with capitalism as such.

Has everything to do with unchecked Capitalism, go too far and both extremes end in a ~Monopoly, in Socialism/Communism it's mostly the State (China, USSR, Cuba etc.) in Capitalism a massive conglomerate of Enterprises (S.Korea, again "new" China, Russia, USA, India)

>It's a built-in tool of the OS, not some random spyware

Oh no dont get me wrong, it's definitely not some random spyware, it's deliberately made by Microsoft targeted at Windows Users who cant buy a Enterprise License.

>u just fine with foreign nations hacking your president. debating would be hard.

And you are fine with declaring war, pretty sure you not even touched anything warlike.

Try to spy on leaders is a thing since forever, and because both sides want to do it, no one would "declare a war" just for the spying...it's kind of a game, accepted and respected on all sides.

There was a time (and probably still is) when Obama spy'd on Merkel....

>When did y'all stop using some basic sense before writing? -_-

Yeah samesame:

-Compares a kernel with paint

-Uses a program with telemetry/spyware instead of installing on of the 1000s alternatives

What has Jesus done?

3 times editing you comment to make my answer unfit...well that's a choice.

But let's talk about LLM's, i hope you dont ever use them with a mindset like "pegasus on leaders phone = declaration of war".

>I wish they target countries like China instead of spineless france.

Because Chinese Life is less worth than "spineless" French? What is that disgusting worldview of yours? You know what a blood-bank is, right?

>fixed thousands of bugs

>set our compiler to treat warnings as errors, and to be as strict as possible

>ironed out all the bugs and failure modes in our infrastructure automation / monitoring.

>eliminate all 3rd party dependencies

>rebuild our frontends completely using zero frameworks

Oh yeah, that's what i call "software engineering" and excellent use of LLM's! Great to see Company's with a Mindset like that.

It has been proofed again and again that you cannot trust npm/cargo not even AUR, implement you own minimalist functionality without dependencies and just for you own needs seems to be a much better solution.

Hey have fun, not me data, not me problem.

If you are right, you can bet that YouTube-France will have Ad's every 2 seconds and Netflix gets really expensive, maybe the French Government really wants Piracy ;)

Well France that sends a signal (not important if that really tax comes).

Don't Invest as a IT-Firm, if power is ~cheap but data expensive....well there are better places.

My Tax would be around 300+80 Euros (Tor Relay)

>but it’s certainly not obvious to me that this isn’t a good thing.

Because its not a problem for Big-corp, but Opensource-Projects/Tor-Nodes, for example i would have to pay ~10$ a day just for my Tor-Relay. It's deeply Anti-Democratic and the opposite what the Internet should be.

>file sync is backup against the things most people have to deal with

I would say accidentally deleting a file is more common than a house fire, so NO, file-sync is not a backup nor is RAID (block-sync) or clustering (data/state-sync).

A backup is/should be a non-modifiable snapshot of data/files maybe even a state.

I give you an example:

You have a password-safe (as a file). Your computer blows up, but you are safe, because your password-safe is synced on Dropbox....but oh my god what was the password to Dropbox??? Your restore is gone because you forgot to "backup" your password-safe.

However you are not a Loser, being a Admin is a ~lost art and a really good paid one (again).... ;)

Maybe this is the time to revive HURD?

Try out MVS-TK5, genius differently and opposite of horrible ;)

>>Any distro that have adopted a hard anti-AI stance?

Yes all the BSD's, and i think with the best explanation, since one cannot proof what license the llm's output has, one cannot legally implement the output under the BSD-License.

But what about Linux? They just dont care, they have the money, corporate backing and with that, all the power.

Wait is that not a 1 to 1 derived work from the official "swisstopo open geodata", taking 15.- is for sure not "fair use"

>>Obtaining and using the data and services is free-of-charge, subject to the provisions on fair use.

Am i wrong here?

Thanks for proofing me right.

I said don't be so sensible, don't take everything as a personal attack.

Your conclusion:

>Hopefully (for you) your next victim gets their feelings hurt. You got to get that dopamine hit somewhere

See why it's not good to have people like You in a project?

>You do realise that people are complex and are unlikely to agree with Theo on everything?

No problem go somewhere else, or bring a good point, no one said you have to agree with Theo on everything.

>Because actually most people don’t want to be around conflict.

That's not a conflict, you are simply to soft and think everything is an attack on you.

>And believe me when I say I’ve written and tested a lot of software for OpenBSD over the last 2 decades.

Ehh that's ok i guess?

>So this is why I say there’s very real risk of rudeness costing projects valuable contributions.

Sometimes risks have to be taken, it's also funny that it's always people who are "potential" contributors but are in fact never the ones who contribute anything.

OpenBSD is still here, with Theo.

Letting toxic one-sided-Snowflakes into your Project is "Shitting you Bed".

>What I’m saying is that Theo is more generally rude.

Nice, that means if he's doing stupid stuff i can be rude too without having to worry that a CoC or even worse a HR department threatens me to resign or publicly state what a horrible person i am.

>You don’t need to be rude to be a project shield.

But you can, it's also a really good way to shy away "over-sensible" individuals, if you think that was rude.....well ;)

>Linux went through this evolution with Linus Torvalds

Not he's still the old one, just without "retro abortion"

44 CVE's : https://corrode.dev/blog/bugs-rust-wont-catch/

Also stuff like: "Set Permissions at Creation Time, Not After"

>But his communication skills isn’t one of them.

It's the projects shield, and pretty good one at that ;)

Exactly, that`s why i refuse to call 99.9% of "software engineers" engineers. Imagine you optimize a aircraft turbine 1%....man you get to drink a pool of champagne with the highest ceo's and aircraft carriers try to buy that turbine as fast as possible.

But with software and a install base of some millions 1% optimization is seen as wasteful, its like software slop is acceptable since forever because hardware gets faster, and electricity is "green" anyway.

they get accepted or rejected, updating ports/packets would be a wonderful AI job, check newest version, update port, poudriere the thing, test it, make patch, send to bugtracker.

Maybe the AI can even check "funny" upstream commits like it happens with npm/crate and block that stuff.

But FreeBSD ports is incredible up to date so there should be no flood of patches anyhow.

I use FreeBSD on all my machines for everything sinc about 11 years GUI is I3/X11/AMD-Card everything works, but please test it yourself, it's like with linux, you just know what's not/is working if you use it daily for all your edge-cases (maybe your scanner, maybe your barcode-scanner your Bluetooth-Stuff your wireless etcetc)

Overall i really love FreeBSD for everything computing (Pi/Laptop/Workstation/Servers).

And the community is great...wanna make a port/src-patch?...just send it to the bug-tracker, no rituals needed ;)
