Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

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.

Ive been teetering on the edge of a fulI move to linux for some time but never could find the energy. I logged onto my windows PC last night, and something about the notification ping, the busted start menu and hearing the fans go wild even though I was doing nothing really pissed me off.

Thought fuck it. Booted up balena etcher, and 30 mins late I was in dual boot Ubuntu. Spent the night getting used to rider and getting the game I'm working on running and I'm NEVER going back to windows.

I tried linux mint a while back and had no end of issues but with Ubuntu it was seamless and painless. I am converted.

Glad it's working! You might get some people saying "Don't use Ubuntu because blah" but keep in mind any complaint about that is so much less of an issue than Windows versus Linux.

I noticed quickly after telling a guy in work than linux folks have... opinions

Glad to hear it! You might try installing KDE on Ubuntu as well, I'm pretty happy with Kubuntu. I tried Mint as well and just didn't like Cinnamon or their update process all that much.
