I agree with everything but bash. Bash sucks I'm not going to lie, nearly anything else is better than bash

Take a look at nixos. All the tinkering you could dream of with all the stability you could ever want

Am I the only one who thinks the outside is really really ugly

It's honestly not unrealistic though, I've used Linux for over 3 years as a daily driver for IT, software dev, and gaming. Only thing it struggled with with was gaming. I'm really not sure how you had so much trouble getting RDP to work, it was never that tiresome when I set it up. Linux does work out of the box on a wide variety of machines and it is gaining in popularity and ease of use. It does have limitations but they are quickly fading. Even then, from my experiences windows has more limitations. Windows can't even use any file systems other than NTFS without WSL besides the most basic like FAT. It costs money to use and has meager customization at best. It's bloated and barley runs on anything short for 8 GB of ram these days. It refuses to allow you to even have the slightest bit of privacy. That's probably the biggest reason to switch. RDP does work great on windows. It's their proprietary protocol. What else would you expect. Windows may be more "plug n play" but Linux just has more options for alot of thing and has more flexibility. It's way more versatile as an os. If your looking for something plug n play just stick with Ubuntu

Obligatory, use Linux. With companies you vote with you money. The more you use it the worse it will get. They believe they have a stronghold on the market

Patterns in text are ideas, that's what text is made to contain, Ideas. They've made a algorithm that "generates text that sounds human" but it didn't understand context, themes, or other more abstract concepts. There is a highly sophisticated amount of emergent behavior from LLMs

If I stuck you on a black box with and removed every single one of your senses, took away your ability to memorize things I don't really think you'd generate new ideas either. Human creativity relies heavily on output from the outside world. LLMs are not human like intelligence but do exhibit pretty amazing emergent behavior. LLMs are more sophisticated than you think. Human like AI has to be possible unless there is something intrinsically different about the human brain that breaks our current understanding of the world. Barring a "soul", the human brain has to be nothing but calculations taking place in a chemical medium. Meaning that human like AI or even better must be achievable.

I lived in wv, you find chunks of it out in the ground sometimes. I was a curious kid and tried to get some to light. It was real low quality though so it burnt like shit

That's the reason for for hire devs yeah, but if you are starting a new project ( especially a community one like lemmy where the profit motive is different) choosing your tech stack is a complex decision

Languages won't grow if you ditch them for other ones. There's lots of reasons to use rust, outside of the size of the project

Arch

Honestly as funny as it is I've been able to notices differences between 120 - 144 hz displays pretty consistently

Yes

It reads like it's a book for middle school students.

Runs around the same core os if you use windows too lol

Lifi is honestly probably the best direction

It's really just the nature of the beast. For higher throughput you need higher frequency. Higher frequency means less pentatration

Dont listen to people about tailscale. This is self hosting! Do it yourself it's part of the fun. I don't know why people are shilling corporate entities so hard here.

There isn't going to be a search engine without some type of ai or content agitation tool. Key word search is not enough to make one of these work. Search engines need to sort through millions of web pages, and try to give you the best match for what your looking for via smart algorithms. With Google these algorithms are designed to sell you products and get the most clicks out of you. Kagis profit incentive is to curate good links for your search results. Indie results will always be low on the ranks thats why they are indie. As they get more popular so so their search results. You don't want your search engine feeding you only new and up and coming shit. You want the most relevant search results. Sometimes it's going to take some digging to find what your looking for. UNLESS you want to give up mountains of your data to and hope that the company uses it to serve your interest instead of feed you sponsored bullshit.

Kagi!!! It's cost money but it's cheap. If you do alot of searches it's worth it
