This bro doesn’t understand AI, protein folding, or code at all but speaks as an authority on it all.

Ohh you mean like the prize winning Folding project that google just shut down so that they could reassign all the staff to work on Gemini instead?

How is treating one contributor fairly unfair to another contributor?

Because sloppers do not actually do the work and in the vast majority of cases are not even capable of doing so. A slopper can produce 10 worthless products in the time a person can produce 1 good product.

There are more kernel forks every day, fuck the sloppers. From where I’m sitting the slop distros which allow or even rely on AI are sick with a cancer and doomed.

I still think that’s not good enough, that treating them fairly is a stupid waste of time and resources and unfair to everyone else.

Just make the rule “any slop” and give the idiots a checkbox so they can ban themselves for reasons which will never be revealed to them (sloppers don’t read documents, it’ll take them a while to figure out). Also start banning people when evidence surfaces of them admitting to slopping.

I don’t like this concept that a slopper can potentially produce decent code, the data shows this simply isn’t true: sloppers produce vast amounts more and worse bugs and vulnerabilities. It’s better for the health of the project to ban it in every scenario.

Thankfully, Arch based distros allow you to install any of a variety of supported kernels and even has instructions on many unofficial kernels, as Linus stated: “if you don’t like it you can fork it”.

Also, your response comes off as pretty sloppy and defeatist.

Obvious slop should be immediate permanently banworthy, sloppers can just keep burning new accounts (as long as they have access to new IP addresses) while real developers deserving of praise and reputation thrive.

Yikes, rest in peace Deb users. I just hope it never happens to my distro.

You can join my Stoat I’ll add a chat for you near the top of the list.

It’s not encrypted at the moment, though, but if the other members stay dormant I’ll consider it.

Why would I ever seem enthused to a discussion with a fascist?

Ah yes, you say we should do multiple times more harm to people who commit self harm, is that your moral philosophy?

As an analogy:

If an American kills an American it’s a crime

If a Chinese op kills an American it’s warfare

Perhaps stick to killing yourselves instead

YouTube is run by a company within the USA.

That does not compare to a company run by a hostile dictatorship’s military.

Nor has it had nearly the same impact: there was a 10 point shift among youth voters in favor of conservatives after TikTok, a complete reversal of a century old trend.

It directly promoted GOP leading up to 2024 and even Trump by name:

Then they did the exact same thing by promoting the AFD in Germany:

This has NOT distanced the USA from Israel; they have never been closer. The GOP are pushing bills that will combine Israel military with the USA’s.

Psychological operations and warfare, mainly disinformation campaigns akin to TikTok used to sway political sentiment in favor of authoritarians such as Trump.

Equally bad: extreme data gathering, also akin to tiktok.

Absolutely already a national security concern, but also technically already banned by the bill which banned TikTok.

Question is how hard they need to stroke Trump for it to be unenforceable.

I’m gonna interject and say you generally model things one half at a time and then mirror for symmetrical objects.

I feel like they did a shit job tryinf to defend themselves if this is the best example of steps taken:

Like, For Real, this is worthless. Show the messy work files, the unfinished sketches, isolate the layers in the 2D mockup to show lineart and color independent of each other, a gif of the 3D wireframes rotating.

This image they posted won’t convince anybody. It will vindicate critics.

Yes, I’m aware that what Valve does maximises profit, but it’s a trade-off with quality as we’ve seen the larger studios are more likely to be cashgrabs than even some asset flips.

And yet every time a Triple A title drops it gets a custom banner on the store page and a guaranteed panel on the recommendation window, even when those indie titles have outsold them in the past without preferential treatment.
