I don’t understand how the Democrats in USA can be considered left-wing. Sure, they are more left than the Republicans, but in my eyes they certainly not left-wing.

Then you should have said that in the beginning and there’d be no argument. Only then this have nothing to do with all these bullshit companies, because what they are doing is snake oil, not “AI”.

I’m with you on the current use of machine learning being snake oil but I never said anything about ML. I’m not sure how my first post was unclear. You just made a lot of assumptions.

According to Google I am using the term correctly.

AI is the broader concept of enabling a machine or system to sense, reason, act, or adapt like a human

ML is an application of AI that allows machines to extract knowledge from data and learn from it autonomously

Edit: I was apparently too tired to see that you wrote machine learning in your initial reply

Edit 2: I feel like this discussion has gone way off topic and I am done with it. The OP claimed that we will not see real self-driving cars within our lifetime and I disagree with that

Blue LED-lights, the TV, radio, airplanes, the personal computer, the light bulb, nuclear fission, optical microscopes, shooting lasers for an aptosecond are among some thing previously thought to be impossible to do.

Who said anything about Steve Jobs? I never mentioned anyone specific and as you say, there are many people that would make that list.

I would consider the “experts” and laymen with a sceptical attitude towards innovation to be nay-sayers.

I think it’s weird how so many people suddenly became experts on AI as soon as OpenAI released ChatGPT.

I don’t like the current trend of companies putting half-assed AI in to everything. AI is the new buzzword to bring in hype. But that doesn’t mean I can not see the value it can potentially bring in the future once it’s more developed. The developments within the AI-field has only just begun.

My use of the word AI is very broad. I am not saying that ChatGPT could drive a car. But I 100% believe that we will have self-driving cars before I die of old age.

Innovators and visionaries is what drives us forward. If they listened all the nay-sayers we would get nowhere. I will keep being optimistic about the future developments of technology.

I think it’s unreasonable to state that it won’t happen within our lifetime. That’s hopefully 60+ years away for me. It’s a long time for computing and general AI development to advance. Just look at how much has happened in the technology field for the past 30 years.

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” - Nelson Mandela

I don’t believe that. Based on how far AI has come in the recent years I think it’s only a matter of time before someone (other than Tesla) manages to do it well.

The biggest problem with the Tesla Auto pilot is Elon. Just the fact that he insists on using only camera-based vision because “people only need their eyes to drive” should tell you all you need to know about their AI.

This is great! I have managed to get a few kernel panics on my system related to Steam and NTFS drives.

I have a shared HDD formated to NTFS that I have imported to Steam as a library. It sometimes that HDD is not mounted at boot due to some error, which have resulted in me installing the same game on my main drive. When I later tried mount my old HDD and import the Steam library my computer just froze. Every time I opened Steam after that the kernel panicked. I didn’t know it was a kernel panic at the time. I ended up dismounting the NTFS drive and uninstalling the duplicate games.

I wonder if I can dig up the old kernel panic logs with this.

I was just curious about why you think this way. It’s not a big deal to anyone except you. The KDE team already has a deadline for new feature before a big release in order to have enough time for testing and fixing. And this wasn’t a big change or new feature so they decided to implement it. It’s pretty bold to assume this was a huge change. Both of us can go check the source code but I don’t care enough to do it.

The edit mode works a lot better now and it’s not as buggy from my experience.

If you really care about stability then use Debian or any other distro that delays big updates and does backports to fixes. Exactly like you are suggesting. If you are using Arch or any other rolling release distro then this is what you signed up for.

The desktop edit change is a huge change for the developers and for the end user, with lot of background changes to make it work correctly, with lot of fixes after it.

How do you know this? The desktop edit feature was already in place. It’s not new. They refined the UI in 6.1 and made the desktop zoom out

Yeah kinda. A container has a lot better performance than a virtual machine and can interact with your system

Vanilla OS 2.0 looks promising in my opinion. But it’s not out yet unfortunately. It’s an immutable distro that has integrated containers for all the main Linux distros. You can for example install Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch stuff on the same machine.

Did you even read what this is about?

The European Commission used its statement to detail its concern “that Microsoft may have granted Teams a distribution advantage by not giving customers the choice whether or not to acquire access to Teams when they subscribe to their SaaS productivity applications. This advantage may have been further exacerbated by interoperability limitations between Teams’ competitors and Microsoft’s offerings. The conduct may have prevented Teams’ rivals from competing, and in turn innovating, to the detriment of customers in the European Economic Area.”

Let me guess. You’re an American?

In Europe we have rules, regulations and consumer protections because our respective countries and the collective union actually give a shit about the people that live here.

Does this list include rolling release distros like Arch? Because I can see no mention of it

If you want to play games then check out Nobara. It’s based on Fedora and made by the guy that created GE Proton

What’s up with all the negativity around flatpaks? I use Arch (btw) and I try to install as much as I can using flatpak. I think they are great. They are compatible, usually up to date, easy to install, easy to remove and it won’t break your system. The sandbox can be edited to include more paths etc.

Oh okey, then I am with you! I have an integrated GPU in my processor that have been tinkering with but for my usecase it’s not enough. Ideally would I need two external GPUs in my system so I can game on both Windows and Linux without rebooting or leaving Linux. Detaching a GPU from a running system is quite messy 😅

Could you please explain how to do it in only the GUI? I need to disable my Nvidia GPU with scripts, detaching the GPU from my main OS, before I can pass it. It’s not 100% reliable

I would like to recommend Yabsnap as an alternative to Snapper. It’s made for Arch, tested on Fedora and might work on other distros. But it needs more eyes and testers!

Edit: thank you for the list! It’s very nice to see what is available for btrfs
