The MOST charitable interpretation I can see is that the United States is too weak to get a country like El Salvador to return a US citizen legal resident.

Throw that at maga.

Looks like you've fallen for the lie authoritarians tell.

Like I said, you'll be able to hold your head high. Because that's all the difference you made.

In my experience, LLMs are good for code snippets and input on best practices.

I use it as a tool to speed up my work, but I don't see it replacing even entry jobs any time soon.

Nah, bro. The far right fooled you into being angry at and failing to support the only group who has a snowball's chance in hell of beating them. Performative righteousness.

The rare smart magas LOVE what you're doing.

And yeah, you can feel very smug that you're Doing The Right Thing while the US sinks into right wing authoritarianism because you didn't vote for not-fascist. You know - the ones Bernie knows are the right choice at the moment, because Bernie knows better than you, because he's been doing this since before you were born.

Candy crush?

And vice versa, if I recall.

So true, it's an amazing tool for learning. I've never been able to learn new frameworks so fast.

AI works very well as a consultant, but if you let it write the code, you'll spend more time debugging because the errors it makes are often subtle and not the types of errors humans make.

We may be, but he's still doing the smart thing instead of pushing for the impossible while allowing the terrible, because you don't like the better.

... You know there are menus with search in Linux just like Windows, right?

We're only talking about the people who want to use the command line.

It's less than the difference between windows CLI and poweshell. And if you're like "I don't use those", guess what? You don't need to in Linux either. You can run the update app.

A new language? It's one app.

And if you learn it, you are back to the same level of usage, not "okayish".

But yeah, no one HAS to move from Ubuntu/Debian to another flavor. (Which is what OP is talking about).

No one has to move off Win 11, either, if that pain doesn't make it worth it to them.

True, I should have said a benefit that is a negative for the consumer.

You're getting down-voted, but, yes, this change only really affects user experience.

I don't know why anyone would think that what the LLM can access for context during your session is a limiting factor for what OpenAI has access to.

If this change freaks you out, the time for you to be freaked out about history was the moment they started storing it.

I think you might be confused about the difference between giving the LLM access to your stored conversations during your session and using OpenAI using AI to search your stored conversations.

What the LLM has access to during your session changes nothing but your session.

It's not some "I, Robot" central AI that either has access or doesn't as a whole.

That is the difference, but it's a pretty minimal difference. Open AI hardly needs to give the LLM access to your conversations during your session to access your conversations.

In fact, I don't see any direct benefit to OpenAI with this change. All it does is (probably) improve its answers to the user during a session.

I'm not going to defend OpenAI in general, but that difference is meaningless outside of how the LLM interacts with you.

If data privacy is your focus, it doesn't matter that the LLM has access to it during your session to modify how it reacts to you. They don't need the LLM at all to use that history.

This isn't an "I'm out" type of change for privacy. If it is, you missed your stop when they started keeping a history.

One thing I have noticed, however. When I search for how to fix or do something, nearly all websites and forums reference Debian/Ubuntu commands, so the fragmentation there is a little annoying

I'm using Nobara, which is based on Fedora, so I hear you, but the only thing you really need to do is learn enough about DNF to translate "apt" commands in your head.

And maybe set up a few aliases you're used to.

While I sometimes go a while without touching it before picking it up again, the Steam Deck DID take away that "ugh computer desk" feeling that kept me from gaming.

So I recommend it, BUT it's not a cure, either. It's just an unfortunate side effect of desk jobs that will never completely go away.

Holy Lord, I think we just found the Left version of qanon.

When's the next drop coming?

Yeah... I think both the WWE family and Trump are garbage, but this post absolutely failed to convince me.

If this is the truth and you really want to spread it, this tactic of "ur so dum you don't see it" without any evidence is having the opposite effect.
