I have an MSI Bravo 17 for work since this month,
quite happy about it so far.
My experience with MSI is best price/value for hardware specs, but with shitty build quality.
However this one feels quite sturdy compared to earlier MSI laptops.
It can get loud under heavy duty,
but it goes quiet again under low workload,
for now at least, my previous MSI laptop sounded like a jet engine whenever it was powered on.
The one you posted seems particularly suited to run Linux upon, since it's an all AMD machine, and their Linux support is great.
I like and been using JetBrains IDEs for years now,
and am/was happily paying for a good product.
However I feel like they've been going backwards in the last year or 2,
it feels less premium,
and more like your a paying beta tester,
since lately I deal with bugs in their IDEs too often to my liking.
But this news kinda scares me,
usually if something is free,
then you are the product,
paying with your data.
Which I can see happen to these IDEs now :/
Especially in this day and age where massive data collection by big tech is sadly normalized, and where coding data likely is wanted to be trained upon by AI companies with the current ongoing hype bubble and all.
If that would start to happen to JetBrains products, I fear for enshitiffication in the forms of:
Losing your privacy
Leaking company secrets
And further once the AI bubble pops,
which will lead to less demand for data,
since there will be less companies.
Imagine living in China,
where the government is able to request data of each company in their country.
Imagine that China would setup an AI/LLM,
to feed all private chat data into it,
and automatically flagging opposition of the government regime.
Imagine a white van appearing in front of your house and disappearing into a concentration camp because you got flagged after expressing your opposition to the government to your mate in a private chat.
All collected data can be abused like that,
or by other means (E.g. a country at war gets hacked, which could lead to leaking critical private information on political/defensive decisions).
To me the question is not if data collected on you will be abused, but rather when will it be abused?
OP I agree with you, it's a great idea imo.
I've been a moderator before on a Discord server with +1000 members, for one of my FOSS projects,
and maintenance against scam / spam bots grew so bad,
that I had to get a team of moderators + an auto moderation bot + wrote an additional moderation bot myself!..
I think it will only be a matter of time before the spam / scam bots catch up to Lemmy,
so it's good to be ahead of the curve with auto-moderation.
However I also partially agree with @dohpaz42, auto-moderation on Reddit is very, uhm, present.
Imo auto moderation should not really be visible to non-offenders.
Either that, or they might dedicate a whole wing of the museum to all the lawsuits they fired off throughout their history, against independent community fan projects.
Nintendo is a lawsuit company that makes games on the side after all.
