  • Local models WOULD form the basis of FOSS AI. Supposition on my part but entirely supportable given there is already a open source model movement focus on producing local models and open source software is generally privacy focused.

    Local models ARE inherently private due to the way that no information leaves the device it is processed on.

    I know you dont want to engage with arguments and instead just wail at the latest daemon for internet points, but you can have more than one statement in a sentence without being incoherent.






  • The point you seem to be missing is that it isnt that linux is too hard for average people, it isnt id even say its easier than windows to use for people who arent deep into using windows already.

    Its that installing any os is too much for regular people and Microsoft have been fighting dirty and abusing market dominance to make sure they kill pre-installed linux machines.

    You’re right to an extent, but there is nuance. No end user goes through the Debian repositories and checking the source code for each package by hand. You would be well within your rights to be annoyed if a rm -rf / got added into a script in the repos somehow. A level of trust somewhere is unavoidable for things to work smoothly.

    Of course the difference in level of responsibility between core repos and random code pulled of github is vast.



  • Personally I prefer to get a refund with the explicit reason “Game wont run on proton” It gives clear quantifiable feedback to valve and the developer that they lost this money because it wouldnt run on linux.

    Or at least I would if that had happened recently. Last time a game wouldnt run for me was ace combat 7.
