I'm moving to FreeBSD if they add copilot to the Linux kernel.
>> what if both Linux and FreeBSD get copilot into the kernel?
We will fork the Linux kernel or write our kernel or simply go back to the GNU Hurd. LOL. But, will not tolerate this bullshit in our personal desktop or server.

Despite all of Google's shortcomings, it did one thing very well: it made TLS/SSL a part of its SEO score. As a result, web developers and site owners rushed to switch to TLS. Additionally, Google was one of the sponsors of Let's Encrypt, which made the whole process easier and more secure for everyone.

The root prompt (hash symbol, #) is for root shells, but I call it the almighty #. It separates the mortals ($ shell symbol users) from the gods of the *nix world. The user with the # symbol protects both users and data. Think of it as a safety net against accidental "rm -rf /*" fiascos; though I'm not entirely convinced. But let's be honest, it's mostly there to make root users feel powerful, right? Like we've got the keys to the kingdom and can do whatever we darn well please.

c) cat /dev/random - Thinking about being creative with unexpected outputs!
d) man {command} - Always try to explain things when asked.
e) ls -l /dev/null - Nothing of value contributed to society.
f) fortune | cowsay | lolcat - Add random wisdom, but mostly nonsense, to the conversation.

In a big, empty room filled with computers, there's an old Sun Solaris server sitting under a desk no one remembers. It has an uptime of over 20 years. Every day, a cron job runs on a forgotten Solaris box, generating critical financial data everyone uses to make retirement investments. Even though no one thinks about this box, everyone needs it & fetches that data using FTP. It works all alone, making sure people can retire comfortably. It's like a secret helper, quietly working in the cold.

Classic Windows apps like Paint and Notepad are also getting LLM (Generative AI) support. There is no reason whatsoever that Notepad should do more than text editing. Microsoft has gone crazy with these tools. Of course, as part of these tools, your text in Notepad is sent to Microsoft under the name of Generative AI, which then sells it to the highest bidder. https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2024/11/06/new-ai-experiences-for-paint-and-notepad-begin-rolling-out-to-windows-insiders/ Stick with FLOSS tools and OS and avoid this madness.

Just a friendly heads-up! While there might be Debian-related Discord servers out there (it is unofficial server), the Debian Project doesn't officially endorse any of them. For official support, you can connect with the community through the forums, IRC, newsgroups, or mailing lists. You can find the details on their website:
https://www.debian.org/support
TL;DR: There is no official Discord server for Debian Linux.

OF revenue hits $6.6 billion, with profits soaring to $600 million. OF earns more than all Silicon Valley AI startups combined 😂 who are burning billions every year with no sight of the profits. OF is Powered by human creativity 😻, not AI. https://variety.com/2024/digital/news/onlyfans-payments-2023-financials-revenue-creator-earnings-1236135425/ At least one area is safe from these tech firms.

Now that Mozilla Firefox is adding AI directly to its browser, are there any browsers without AI or LLM? I don't want anything to do with the current LLM and AI, which I strongly believe stealing from artists, and all AI companies are freeloaders. It is a bit disappointing to see open-source software adopting something like this. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-news/ai-services-on-firefox/

If a particular product shut down today, what product would be categorized as "nothing of value was lost"? 🤔

Nothing unites Linux users like a heated debate (or as I call it 'holy war') about systemd or the merits of their favorite distro. It's a love-hate relationship that keeps the community passionate and the flame wars burning bright every day. 😂 #linux #opensource

By the time you're 35, you should have successfully done following at least once:
1. rm -rf / on your unix or linux box
2. Reboot production server by mistake
3. Drop CPU/hard disk and damage it permanently
4. Changing firewall rule instantly blocked you out
5. No backup was made/verified ever...
6. Delete source code before actually committing to source control
7. Run a SQL update/delete with wrong where clause

Good. Greed knows no boundaries.

If you're starting out in programming, sysadmin, or DevOps, don't feel bad if you're constantly Googling the basics.
Even seasoned pros like myself, with years under our belts, turn to Google every single day for the simplest things.
The human mind is great, but it forgets many things. It's basic human nature. So, don't feel bad about such stuff :)

The Internet Archive Loses Its Appeal of a Major Copyright Case https://www.wired.com/story/internet-archive-loses-hachette-books-case-appeal/ Next, all AI companies should also lose access to copyrighted books and art. Why are tech bros allowed to breach copyright? The law should be applied equally to all.

These companies need to be fined for heating up plants, too. They are now using way too much energy to write poems and make pictures using LLM. I have never seen such short-sighted and entitled billionaire individuals. They don’t want to pay artists. They want to destroy the planet.

Fuck you Sama and your shity AI company. You are stealing from artists plain and simple. Nobody asked you to do this. Nothing of value will be lost today if your company shuts down. OpenAI is begging the British Parliament to allow it to use copyrighted works because it's supposedly "impossible" for the company to train its artificial intelligence models without using copyrighted material — and continue growing its multi-billion-dollar business — without them. https://futurism.com/the-byte/openai-copyrighted-material-parliament

01. #Linux users open your terminal.
02. Type the following bash command
for i in {100..1000..100}; do ffplay -f lavfi -i "sine=frequency=${i}:duration=0.1" -autoexit -nodisp -loglevel quiet; done
03. Enjoy!

If you could delete one programming language permanently, which one would you delete? 🤔

My first day as a software developer: “I am going to change the world.”
Ten years later: “I am lost and difficult to keep up with the current trends. I want to keep it simple.”
Fifteen years later: “I am tired, lost faith in the world and now want to work as a carpenter.”
