From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.

There was a github thread about this when it came up for CSAM, they managed to easily circumvent it. I’m rather confident this will end up similarly

Becaue hashes are known to work great with images 🤦‍♂️

Android is a Linux derivative, the Kernel is still licensed under GPLv2.

Mr. Freedom of Speech

Yeah, I would really recommend you switch over to Gnome for things like that. KDE is just a buggy mess of a DE

What DE do you use?

GNOME, what else. AMD Ryzen censored 7 350 with Radeon 860M 32GB of RAM Internal Display

The drivers for the GPU are unfortunately not in the LiveUSB image so I had to connect my laptop using a HDMI to VGA converter to my CRT monitor to install Fedora xD

Launch options are: PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%

HDR works quite well, with a bit of tinkering naturally, for Steam games. (Fedora 42 using ProtonPlus to get GE-Proton-10 and modifying the launch parameters)

It would make sense that they don’t want to get sued following the recent controversy. Might also be aimed at undermining the AI slop (that Google doesn’t profit from)

The US government doesn’t (to my knowledge at least) have copyright protections so MIT wouldn’t be possible. BSD 0-Clause is just better because e.g. Austria doesn’t allow you to cede copyright to the public domain and CC0 directly mentions the public domain in the terms of the license.

It’s licensed under CC0 to anyone wondering. BSD 0-Clause would probably be better but still fantastic.

Because of the way those captions are stored VLC has to use OCR to convert the .SRT file (which basically stores low resolution b/w images I assume to easier allow for different alphabets) to normal text. I don’t know why the open source solutions are so bad at this (especially considering how good the proprietary solutions seem to be) but I had similar problems ripping a DVD. I would assume that had he turned off the special font VLC uses for the subtitles and instead just seen the raw data there wouldn’t have been a problem. Why VLC doesn’t enable this by default (/ have this) I don’t know.

Pain and suffering (aka an arrays base index is one)

Yes, they are. I only run LLMs locally and Deepseek R1 won’t talk about Tiannamen square unless you trick it. They just implemented the protection badly.

Depends on what software. Anything that happens in the browser works. A lot of other software can be run using Wine. There is some software which still has problems especially when using USB ports as serial ports etc. and a lot of subpar software (un)fortunately just doesn’t work because of it being badly programmed.

There are many safe open source options. If you need help there are ample resources available. If you want to you can also DM me.

Yes, stuck. There are enourmous problems with different institutions having to use ancient PCs because the software doesn’t work on modern ones, be they electron microscopes, hospitals or industrial machinery, causing e.g. enourmous security issues. This is one of the most important reasons why FOSS and why making FOSS software mandatory in government contracts is so important.

Also how come people can’t read the fucking article before commenting?

That reason being them having no competition in the Mac market.

Have fun with your back problems!
