A few more peaceful protests is sure to fix things in a giffie!

💩💯💯

You address this to tankies. I see very few of them around here these days.

Cringe karma post.

Changing the brightness or WiFi settings can be very useful for many people. Not everyone is a Linux nerd and knows all the ins and outs of basic computing.

One comment that agrees 🥲

They probably wouldn't be such a laughing stock if they were successful.

Its a good point but you can always have even lesa market share.

Don't tell me Linux mint would still be Linux mint without the a desktop environment like Cinnamon. An os is the collection of all the software not just the low level code.

Work on useful alternatives to big corpo crapware = lick the boot?

Mkay...

"It happened once, therefore it follows that it will happen again" is confirmation bias

You're right but realistically it will fail. The voices speaking against it are few and largely marginalised, with no money or power. There will probably be regulations but it will not go away.

The potential for damage is much higher

Doubt it. Maybe Microsoft can fuck it up somehow but the tech is here to stay and will do massive good.

I guess we'll see. 😃 In any case I wouldn't want my Linux desktop to be 5 years behind if they do take off on other platforms.

Fair enough...

You might argue that "private cloud" is privacy preserving

I don't know since when "on device" means send it to a server. Come up with more straw men I didn't mention for you to defeat.

I agree. Openai have sold everything they supposedly stood for.

It is always easier to blame an -ism than built in conflicting human tendencies.

Too bad you can't centrally plan what people want to use power on. Only if you could would the world be a better place.

Thanks for the history lesson, these days it is used to refer to those opposed to industrialisation, automation, computerisation, or new technologies or even progress in general.

Right, another aspect of the Luddite movement is that they lost. They failed to stop the spread of industrialization and machinery in factories.

Screaming at a train moving 200kmph hoping it will stop.

Sooo like most people? 🤣
