This is true but individual action is still necessary. Just because it's important that we hold corporations and the wealthy accountable and curb industrialized pollution doesn't mean that the average person isn't needing to make significant changes. We can't both maintain a consumer mindset and abdicate individual responsibility while also demanding sweeping societal changes.
Even though companies are making a profit off of it, donating blood is still so important. Not doing it because someone is profiting off of the donation only hurts the people who need the transfusion more. The laws surrounding profiting off of donated blood need to change, but the need for blood still exists.
This is me as well. I only actually got around to playing Hollow Knight about a year ago and it was amazing. I won't be waiting as long to play Silksong, that's for sure.
If this note were added to the commit whenever an LLM were used to author code then this would be a good feature but just silently adding it is so shitty.
I used to not care about this at all, but recently I am adamant about using zed. Similarly, I go out of my way to use the non-American spelling for any words that have it.
I don't know if I agree that Linus' decision making can be attributed to role playing as an "average user" so much as it being a case of too much experience hindering him. He's someone who has been interacting with tech for his entire life and has become very proficient at it within his domain of knowledge. He is definitely someone who is used to tossing the user manual aside when he gets a new device and stumbling his way through until he groks it, and he is using that same approach with Linux. This ends up meaning that he just does stuff that should work the way that he's used to (i.e. follows the Windows paradigm) and then runs into problems because of it. I think that a lot of his issues basically stem from his ego not permitting him to take a step back to re-learn some of the fundamentals, or least map them onto his Windows-focused mental model.
All that said, Linux distros have varying levels of issues and quirks that have to be learned/dealt with, and there's nothing inherently wrong with pointing those pain points out. Linus just needs to take a step back and realise that he's going to have to actually learn something if he wants to be successful.
It's honestly so sad you'd make that comparison. I've lost accounts to scammers as a teen and I've been mugged, and I can tell you that only one of those experiences had any kind of lasting effect on me. I think it's important to remember that we're talking about a teen's discord account with absolutely nothing valuable on the line at all. They can make a new account and go on with their lives. This experience may even help them avoid falling for a scam later in life that could have actual consequences for them.
This is the digital equivalent of falling of your bike and skinning your knee.
How is this news? Kid got pwned; it's a learning experience to lose your account because you clicked on an untrusted link. Discord sucks, and their support sucks, but I don't think they did anything wrong here beyond that.
I'm imagining our intrepid hero coming off a bender and to the conclusion that they're in a different dimension. In their efforts to educate themselves about their new world they unwittingly fall fully for conspiracy YouTube videos; what a magical and strange world they've found themselves in.
FWIW it doesn't seem like Valve is really looking to make Steam OS a general-purpose operating system. They are developing it to work on their hardware offerings and may or may not add support to other hardware. This means that they may not work on supporting Nvidia cards well unless they start shipping gabe cubes or decks with Nvidia hardware.
Just because a corporation is backing the OS doesn't mean that they are doing so for anything beyond their own products.
Does anyone know if the code that Voyager 1 (or similar era tech) is running is available anywhere for inspection? I would love to poke around in such a historical code base.
Even if they’re offered their jobs back, it could be that by now they’ve made other commitments.
Or just don't want to contribute to an organization that tried to fuck them over in the past. I'd be much more inclined to get a payout and move on with my life. What's the point of returning to a job and making more money for the people who just tried to get rid of you to save a buck?
I don't think the blank cheque handed to these emergent technologies is a function of the times in which they emerged. Rather it's the fact that technology advances much faster than the wheels of government turn; it's nearly inevitable that new technologies will be largely unregulated until government can catch up.

Weird, the alphabet song says zed for me because that's what I choose to say.

None of the other explanations have actually given you the real contraction that the above user is employing phonetically: "I'd've" -> "I would have"

Yeah I think I'd be more likely to use WinBoat or something similar to run a virtual machine rather than fully boot into Windows.

Truly. This global push towards mass surveillance is extremely alarming.
