RHEL on servers, then either Debian LTS or Fedora on desktop. Been interested in Zorin OS but haven’t gotten around to trying it yet. Curious if their Windows application integration is as seamless as they claim.

Username checks out at least.

By using an older piece of tech that does one thing, you make doing that thing an activity again. As in, it’s a conscious involvement to do that thing now, it’s not just an app or a side feature of some other device.

For instance, I got an iPod Nano a little while ago and just loaded it with the few hundred songs I care to listen to. I use a fraction of the space of the thing if I care to add more music, but now when I want to listen to music I have to use a specific device to do so. It makes it more of a conscious decision to listen to music and, to me, makes me enjoy it more.

American sex ed hard at work here.

ClapGPT

I’m not that person from before, but that is still pretty dirty. Those shoulder buttons are yellow, the grey plastic seems to be covered in a film of what I assume is oil from a person’s hands, and what are those brown things on the side? I assume clips for some kind of rear protection.

That said, no drift yet is astounding. Even the people I know who baby their electronics experienced drift eventually. When did you get this? Curious if it’s a newer model and they made some changes.

Think of the dumbest person you know. Not that one. Dumber. Dumber. Yeah, that one. Now realize that ChatGPT has said “you’re absolutely right” to them no less than a half dozen times today alone.

If LLMs weren’t so damn sycophantic, I think we’d have a lot fewer problems with them. If they could be like “this could be the right answer, but I wasn’t able to verify” and “no, I don’t think what you said is right, and here are reasons why”, people would cling to them less.

Never have, never will. I’ll quit the industry before I use AI to do my job.
