Code generated by a large language model or similar technology, such as GitHub/Microsoft's Copilot, OpenAI's ChatGPT, or Facebook/Meta's Code Llama, is presumed to be tainted code, and must not be committed without prior written approval by core.

• NetBSD banned AI from their codebase as tainted code.

While it is not prohibited to use AI as a learning aid or a development tool (i.e. code completions), extension developers should be able to justify and explain the code they submit, within reason.

Submissions with large amounts of unnecessary code, inconsistent code style, imaginary API usage, comments serving as LLM prompts, or other indications of AI-generated output will be rejected.

• GNOME banned AI code from their extensions.

Although I prefer NetBSD's stricter ban on AI code over GNOME's, it's better than nothing on GNOME's side.

Also, I hand-drew my pfp and the original is pinned on my IRL wall right now, so that should hint at how I personally feel about AI.

I came over to Fooyin from Foobar2k, so the UI translated right over.

Fooyin's great so far.

So even the enthusiasts would rather, or are probably going to be forced to, give up their custom-built PCs, which they can do whatever they want with and run whatever OS and software they want on, for locked-down black boxes they don't even own anymore, even possibly to the degree where they can't even install their own OS anymore, so no more Linux or BSD outside of some niche hardware? That sucks.

How soon before modular PCs are killed outright and the only desktops you can buy are mini PCs with no expansion or upgradability at all?

It might if they're censored off the clearnet.

how would repealing Section 230 affect the fediverse specifically?

• It would destroy it. And ATproto. And decentralized platforms in general. And open-source software and hardware in general as I could imagine MS getting the green light to destroy Linux because they deem it to be a threat due to repealing Sec. 230.

Anyone who has an old car still has gotta feel some level of vindication right now as new cars for all price brackets are screwed right now on multiple levels.

This was in high school, but the way universities are going in the US right now, I'm feeling kinda vindicated in opting not to go to university.

I'm targeting them specifically because although Nintendo says they're portable and will last, what if Nintendo decides to revoke all those download keys when they sunset the Switch 2 instead of allowing them to be redeemed on the Switch 3, if there even will be a Switch 3 and the entire gaming industry doesn't collapse before such a console has a chance to even go into conception?

You'll have larger amounts of now-useless plastic littering landfills than with the optical discs that are glorified license keys on the PS and Xbox consoles.

I've never personally dealt with them and don't ever intend to get a Switch 2 so I probably won't deal with them, although I can imagine them being catastrophic when Nintendo eventually sunsets the console in question, but Switch 2 Game-Key Cards.

I2P is like Tor but peer-to-peer and as a result more decentralized, IIRC.
