It’s usually the llvm that takes forever, then Firefox, then LibreOffice.

You can actually pull binary packages in Gentoo, if you are into that, and update like any other system.

I have an 8 core CPU, but I have to admit I don’t use any DE.

Updates can take several hours if I don’t upgrade for a while, but PC is usable during them (you can set number of build threads).

Manual intervention is what I’ve said needed way more in Fedora, which left me without any video after updates, or Ubuntu which broke integrations or replaced my software.

Gentoo just… is.

There are sometimes updates that would require intervention if you do something special, nothing too difficult though, and you get a link to Wiki with working solutions.

I need to donate more money to that project.

I have struggled with Fedora for couple of years (graphics drivers after major updates), then Ubuntu got me down a couple of times (snaps and other malice).

Zero issues with Gentoo after the initial setup. You build it, update it, and IT WORKS. Also you can easily remove parts of software you’re building with USE flags. -telemetry, -x11, and you never care about it anymore.

Gentoo is an easy OS, and works like a charm.

Gentoo is the best, if you have a beefy CPU with enough RAM, it’s not even that slow. (Yes still slower, though dnf may be on par).

But it’s just the best thing for having control over your hardware and software.

USE flags are divine, I can’t imagine a life without them anymore.

I suggest Gentoo.

Great documentation, systemd optional.

I use Gentoo, btw.

Yes, I build the kernel myself.

Their point still stands - the bots need to know who to target to generate revenue, otherwise they waste your money.

You can decrypt old messages on Matrix, in some cases.

It would be, until I’ve seen millenials do the exact same thing.

Yeah, but the image seems pretty spot on, and that’s what you replied to.

What is accurate then?

But that won’t happen, since the bubble rose on promises of gorillions of returns, and those have not manifested yet.

We are so fucking stupid, I hate this timeline.

It’s a bit fucking expensive for a grammar tool.

I get that it gets logarithmically more expensive for every last bit of grammar, and some languages have very ridiculous nonsensical rules.

But I wish it had some broader use, that would justify its cost.

Surprise surprise, most of us have no use for LLMs.

And yet everyone and their gradma is using it for everything.

People asked GPT who would the next pope be.

Or which car to buy.

Or what’s a good local salary.

I’m so fucking tired of all the shit.

What is your definition of reasoning?

It’s not shoving AI slop into it again to get a new AI slop? Until it stops, because it reached the point where it’s just done?

What ancient wizzardry do you use for your reasoning at home if not that?

But like look, we’ve had shit like this since forever, it’s increasingly obvious that most people will cheer for anything, so the new ideas just get bigger and bigger. Can’t wait for the replacement, I dare not even think about what’s next. But for the love of fuck, don’t let it be quantums. Please, I beg the world.

Wow, do I have some stories for you.

But in short, there’s a lot of FOSS software that people use every day without knowing about it.

And it gets no funding, because why it should.

Companies making 9+ figures have issues sending even a $1000 to an open project that they depend heavily on.

But Microsoft/Oracle/VMWare/Google licenses? That money just shoots out like from a cannon.

Even if those products are not 100% needed and can be replaced.

Jitsi

No it wasn’t
