I don’t think the video was bad and I’m glad desktop Linux is getting a good amount of attention this way.

But… I feel like he didn’t exactly show windows users what really expects them on Mint (which is a very similar but in many ways better and quite easy experience). This might be off putting to some unconvinced Windows users.

His Hyprland setup looks cool if you’re into that sorta thing but it’s just not what users just switching to mint, fedora, whatever might be looking for.

LLMs themselves certainly aren’t tho

Not saying there aren’t any issues with them but still

I use Ollama+Open WebUI to create the most fucked AI characters to have a laugh at when chilling with mates lol

Can be good fun if you’re a bit of a nerd

Sorry to disappoint ya, still waiting for 4G over here

I work in the telco industry (specifically mobile networks) in Germany, there are heaps of reasons for heaps of issues… cbf to start listing them now but feel free to ask I guess

I always think I like the idea but then, once I think about it for like 12 seconds, I realise that it is, in fact, absolutely useless for most people because the internet is quite fucking useful and almost always necessary lol

I “used AI to cover up their actual design” as well (based on absolutely fuck all and a few minutes of processing on my 5 year old laptop)

Pretty funny in the US context tho, I’d imagine it wouldn’t be too hard for them to get google to “help”

A fucking Chromebook lmao

Step 1: don’t

Time to publish some bullshit then?

Yeah unfortunately we’ve started calling any LLM “AI”

“AI” (as in LLMs for the sake of having LLMs accessible on your phone) is so fucking useless…

From a technical standpoint it’s pretty cool, I love playing around with Ollama on my PC every now and then.

But the average Joe seems to think it’s some magic being with absolute fucking knowledge you can talk to using your phone. Apart from being stupid, I think this might actually endanger human capabilities like critical thinking as well as reasoning and creativity.
