This is a tricky argument to make. Living under capitalism means you don’t really have much of a choice in the matter. If you could easily choose not to participate, it would become an ethical decision.

Currently, LLMs don’t really occupy that position, but soon they will. Eventually, choosing not to use an LLM will be like choosing not to use electricity today. You may not like how your electricity was made, but can you realistically choose not to use it? Most people can’t be expected to make such radical decisions based on ethical questions, because doing so would require significant sacrifices. Same with capitalism today.

Today, you can still choose to avoid LLMs, and it won’t involve massive sacrifices on your part. I wonder how long that still holds true. Regardless, I still approve of your argument, because of the trajectory we’re currently on.

Sounds like this could be a blog post. I would really like to read about those experiences. If you have the time, please elaborate.

If we assume that Claude has free rein, the quality of rsync will fall. Now the real question is: Can we realistically assume that?

What if there is a human in the loop who has decades of experience, is more than qualified to evaluate the quality of the code, spends time reviewing it, finds stupid nonsense and fixes it. You could either fix it manually or tell Claude to fix it, which results in a few more coding and review iterations until the code is good enough. If the human in the loop is a responsible person, I think it’s fair to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Is that too much to ask? Not every application is developed and maintained by a lazy idiot with the programming skills and attention span of a toddler. There are serious and skilled people out there who use LLMs responsibly.

If your spouse is a troubled individual, that makes this a special case. Special precautions might be in order. Normal people don’t need to worry about these things, because murdering your SO doesn’t even occur to most people.

If you need to compline code into a binary file, having a faster CPU will make it faster. If you’re just running python scripts, you won’t need to worry about that.

Oh, but a USB condom really is a thing though. It just passes through power but no data, as those pins are missing.

Small addition to what everyone else has already mentioned: in Linux, there are a few window managers that are built around the idea of not needing a mouse. Example: ratpoison

They should have called it cram. Lost opportunity.

You should just make it very clear that this instance is for people who make videos. Once that’s out of the way, you can set the wait period as low as you like. Maybe even just 1 month.

Yeah, that post was getting way too long, so I made some cuts here and there. The issue was in the way SE2 detects hardware… or more like doesn’t detect my GPU at all, throws an error about it and refuses to start. Under Bazzite it starts the game first 🎉, then complains that my hardware might not be good enough to run this game 🤯, but the beautiful graphics say otherwise. It’s still in early access, so I guess this kind of strange behavior will be ironed out sooner or later.

I got tired of researching this issue in Debian, so once I got it up and running in Bazzite, I stopped reading about it. Honestly, I have no idea what’s the key difference here. Is it the driver version, Proton-GE or something else? Who knows.

Anyway, I would recommend trying Bazzite. It has some pre-configured tricks that seem to handle weird cases like this.

It was Space Engineers 2. Even made a post about the journey.

All the other games were just fine though. If you don’t stumble upon one of these edge cases, there’s no reason to switch.

That’s the same philosophy I’ve applied for a long time. Recently, I found out that gaming is an exception to the rule, though. While older versions are just fine for the most part, there are edge cases where that no longer applies. I also found out that I care about one of them. Until you hit that brick wall, there’s no reason to switch. Just keep on using Debian for everything.

Took me a while to realise that I was spending way too much time figuring out workarounds instead of actually gaming. I ended up using Bazzite in my gaming rig because it works so well for that purpose.

Can confirm. There are lots of “boring” videos on Loops. Like, check this out. Yes, it’s an entire channel dedicated to chickens. I mean, it’s nice and relaxing, but nowhere near as addicting and engaging as tiktok or instagram videos. I’ll still count that as a win.

Regardless, @billinkc still rocks.

The kWh is a silly unit. Joule (J) is the one true unit of energy.

Also, common time units suck as much as inches, pounds, feet and whatever nonsense units you Americans still use. Just use seconds with the appropriate SI prefix instead.

Cubic meters and tonnes suck too. Just use kl and Mg instead.
