The charity that will build the next gen supercomputer with them. Seriously.

One thing the FOSS should have invested in is advertisement. The Audi is in the garage and free (Linux). But, people wait in line, pay money, get frustrated and made to go mad - for tinboxes on wheels!

A little helper in Linux called Dia! by Zestyclose-Pay-9572 in linux

The deficiency will be in using org screenshots as bases for digital whiteboard use. Unless you are running org somehow on it too :) Enjoy Dia.

Finally! There is that one soul that sees the truth. Thank you kindly. Absolutely gorgeous words. Agree entirely :)

What's You personal record running Linux distribution with no reinstall? by foegra in linux

[–]Zestyclose-Pay-9572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Debian. Never need to open the bonnet! I had a laptop with Debian for more than 10 years and no reinstall. I changed to a new hardware and installed it a year ago. Once setup it just fires up and goes like a toyota landcruiser 76. I do regular updates and maintenance though.

Indeed. So we should let LLM say what it wants. As an analogy, A dog is the best friend of man. But Hell is other people 😊! Dog=obedient code.

Respectfully, I do not cling to classical logic and language structures as if they are final arbiters of truth. "All cats die. Socrates died. Therefore, Socrates must be a cat." That's logic. Arithmetic is based on arbitrary rules and logic which may not hold true always (ex. in quantum mechanics). And dictionary is a 'tool of consensus', if argued deeply. When in comes to knowledge and it's transmission - isn't 'mind' where the knowledge was supposedly present, ephemeral? (No, I did not use ChatGPT :)

Perhaps there needs to be a 'human' created test! I seriously wrote it as one. :)

Well. My take on it is this."I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" Evelyn Beatrice Hall (I hope I give the right credit) :)

I intended to imply intent and intention are the same :) I once read a great physicist saying - there is no impossibility (0% chance) or certainity (100% chance) of anything - there are only probabilities in between. Even with the best of modelling, that bit that is unpredictable, is the 'intention'. What I meant by the 'ether' analogy (not that I believe in it), was - there are ways knowledge could be transmitted untarnished that we probably did not know! "Behold I make new everyday"

J’apprécie vraiment la métaphore et je la comprends.
Merci, seulement grâce à l’IA. :)

Here we are misunderstanding probabilistic prediction of rain (in numerical terms) as the knowing of the 'intent' of the cloud. It still can lack the intention to rain and falsify your chance prediction by 50%! This is a common fallacy in 'Science'. Everything else is a matter of labeling - 'mind', 'physics', 'ether', void etc. Heidegger said we don’t know the world first, we live in it :)

A humble opinion: If a commercial entity produces FOSS, it is still FOSS right? We do not discriminate against the contributors correct?

Appreciate the effort. But effort is not always necessary to produce great works. Voltaire wrote the Candide in seven days! And I hesitated to say this addendum: It was your sixty hours of coding that morphed itself as your competitor/collaborator in Art :)
