Nothing wrong with Ubuntu, but it’s interface is definitely geared more towards Mac folks.

My recommendation for someone making the jump to full time Linux is Fedora Kinoite. It’s “immutable” meaning impossible to break, and uses KDE Plasma, which is like the modern Windows you’ve always wanted.

Again nothing wrong with Ubuntu, it’s great and will run on the hardware you mentioned, but if you are someone who wants to tweak settings without fear of breaking something somewhere else, I really recommend Kinoite.

This is what’s funny to me, “AI” investors must know on some level these products don’t actually work the way the companies claim, because if they did they would crash, not help, the economy as it exists now.

Ha! Yes so true.

I’m going to be that guy and point out that LLM’s are not really “AI”, that’s just the corporate buzzword but “AI” is a loosely defined thing.

I think we should all get better at calling them LLM’s publicly to take some of the magic woo-woo away.

Well said, I think the library is the biggest point but also a harder sell for someone used to losing a large percentage of their games every generation. They see it as “having to buy their games again” in the short term.

Well said. I mean, the thing produced is literally called a WORK (of art).

This is it exactly.

“But how can we know if it’s a bot?”

We probably can’t based on a single comment or post, which is why rules need to be constructed around maintaining a level of effort and quality.

The forced app thing still drives me crazy, we could have had it SO much better…

This community really needs better moderation IMO.

A nas or home server with one of them is a great idea

Lissen is my favorite audiobook player

I like that unlike Chrome, Firefox mobile can use all the extensions.

I love that they changed their name to show how serious they were about the metaverse being the future of tech and it never even came close to being a thing.

CasaOS or YunoHost are great places to start and hold your hand the whole way, while allowing you to tip toe into more advanced setups later on as you learn.

I love this idea.

It’s the “just works” distro for people who want to play games.

It’s been flawless for me with similar performance (slightly better in some areas) than Windows.

Very cool thanks for pointing them out, I will look into them.
