Nice essay, don’t care to read it fully since you are one of those people who unironically think computers can be conscious. And yes. Self driving cars should absolutely be banned.
Not gonna waste my time with this any more since I can see what kind of takes you have on things. Have a nice day.
They’re humans using brains and not algorithms trained to copy and paste
If you can keep putting artists out of work on your consciousness then sure, but some of us actually have morals guiding us.
The human bases the new piece off of it, inspiration.
The AI directly uses portions of the existing art. We get onto humans just the same who do that.
AI isn’t conscious, it can’t think, it can’t use it as “inspiration”, that is the entire point.
People who have abolutely 0 idea what art is about just get feral over this “tech” and beat down artists are absolutely selfish.
AI generated content is always stealing, just because I steal an entire museum full of art and then cram a ton of art pieces together until it’s indistinguishable from anything that was in the museum beforehand doesn’t change the fact that I stole the entire museum to do it.
Doesn’t matter if it’s text, art, etc. The current models of generative AI is always stealing. For some reason because it’s done in mass and automated, people think that it isn’t stealing now.
Breaking your install within a few days is the rite of passage
I think on a lot of Android phones you can skip the Google sign in step and use it without an account, but it’s limited in the usual ways like no play store access, etc
For League of Legends, that one surprisingly works, even has a wine-ge build made specifically for it https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton8-27-LoL
For CS, that’s one of the rare games that has native Linux support and runs without needing anything at all
This browser is the shit
Really just craps on all the competition
okay i’ll see myself out
For gaming performance, some games run better with Proton-GE which is a custom build containing some fixes that Valve/Steam can’t distribute as a US-based company, some games need it to run at all, some get better performance with it, some run worse, just depends. I’d recommend using GE when a game won’t run with vanilla Proton or runs poorly with it.
Also, checking your games on ProtonDB.com, clicking the PC tab on the game, you can see some tweaks other people did on the game to get the best experience with it, as well as a general idea of how well the game will run on Linux.
For non-steam games, those run good too with stuff like Heroic Games Launcher, Lutris, and Bottles but may require more manual intervention to get working in some cases compared to a lot of Steam games.

jokes aside, you’re getting benefits from more caching into ram, and you’re also getting the ability to not have to even think about your ram usage, even if the ram isn’t actively being used by apps you’re getting good use just from having it available, the OS has more wiggle room to use it optimally: I have 64GB of ram and regularly use only about 12-20GB of it, currently 6.1GB is being used as cache
Some apps like Okular (pdf viewer) can be configured to use more ram in the settings, you can set it to be very aggressive about preloading pages so that everything loads faster, set a very high amount of scrollback in your terminal if wanted, etc
I’ve never done this so I can’t speak to how much benefit there is from it, but you can set up a way to preload/cache your most used apps into ram, so that they’re always fully loaded and ready to go
That’s about all there is that we can say, some people just don’t care about their privacy until a blatant violation of it is right in front of their face, and nothing else except for that would ever make them care.
The energy is better spent on sharing info with people who want to do more for privacy, so that eventually it’s hopefully normalized to care about privacy.

there was no purpose to what you said other than flaming. I will not be responding further.
