AI is not interesting and it's shocking to me why so many creators talk about it. At lunch, my friends start talking about the way to game AI systems and all the things you have to do to prompt write. These are people with little technical expertise and they already know all the tricks.

Someone sent me a vibecoded GitHub project to review. Vibecoding is all well and good, until you start sharing it with other people.

Nobody should care about an AI policy, but big Linux has gaslit you into thinking it's the most important thing right now.

Ageless Linux is such a crock. All you had to do was leave a field nobody uses blank and yet you chose to download a random shell script from a guy on GitHub. Not to mention it tampers with your /etc/os-release because Claude thought it was a good idea. Don't you are dare recommend this to anyone.

2021 Windows 11 reveal/Xbox directs and her line delivery was so robotic, she has to be one of the least genuine people on the planet. Not to mention wasting the 2021 event talking about her dad and using Apple buzzwords like "magical" and "it just works" to kiss up to Panos. 2/2
Tom Warren writes "Most of the current and former Xbox employees I’ve spoken to in recent days are relieved that Bond is leaving Microsoft. I’ve heard from multiple sources that Bond has been tough to work with, and built a team structure that meant if you didn’t follow the vision or questioned it, you were out. Most have praised her ability to strike partnerships with companies and developers, though.

I wrote in December 2024 that Bond had 'staked her career reputation on the idea of Xbox being everywhere, across multiple platforms and devices.' This also involved carefully managing her image both internally and externally, making her appear to be a gamer like Phil Spencer. In reality, she wasn’t.

I understand that Bond’s strategy had been failing internally and been questioned multiple times. Bond had tried to push mobile and cloud over console, to reach potentially millions more Xbox customers, but the result has been a classic case of chasing tomorrow’s customers by neglecting today’s."

DistroWatch throwing away all credibility by giving in to fear and misinformation.
@distrowatch@mastodon.social: @kde@floss.social It's not really FUD though, is it? If someone wants to run a pure KDE/Plasma system then they're going to need to use PLM. PLM requires systemd. Therefore to run a pure KDE system the user needs PLM.

The fact other login managers can be used is a workaround to the problem KDE is introducing. Pointing that out isn't FUD, it's fact. One which KDE is now trying to downplay. And is now engaged in personal attacks against developers for pointing it out. 

Not a good look, KDE.
