A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I had not really considered going full-time Linux until now. If they attempt to force that unto me, it will be the end of Microsoft for my household. I've successfully been AT&T free for almost 2 decades. There are a few other companies like that which will never earn another direct dollar from me. Microslop may be next.
It's nice over here.
Imagine being happy when there are new software updates, because the updates will make your computer better.
You know... that's actually something I haven't thought about in a while. I do actually look forward to software updates on Linux whereas I dreaded them on Windows.
I've hated Microsoft for as long as I can remember. I refused to ever own an Xbox and only used Windows because I felt I had to. Once I could afford a Mac I never looked back (that was in 2006). I can say that I've blissfully only had to touch a Windows device maybe a dozen times since then.
EDIT: I've since moved over to Linux. I mentioned that elsewhere on this thread. But I didn't want folks thinking I was a Mac fanboy over here trying to act smug like Apple ain't just a few years behind Microslop on this crap.
No good reason to wait.
