NAME
pdftotext - Portable Document Format (PDF) to text converter (version 3.03)
SYNOPSIS
pdftotext [options] PDF-file [text-file]
DESCRIPTION
Pdftotext converts Portable Document Format (PDF) files to plain text.
Pdftotext reads the PDF file, PDF-file, and writes a text file, text-file. If text-file is not speci‐
fied, pdftotext converts file.pdf to file.txt. If text-file is ´-', the text is sent to stdout. If
PDF-file is ´-', it reads the PDF file from stdin.
Why would anyone want a chatbot to shit code? If you need to reuse (your own or others') code, use functions. Functions are the right approach, or maybe try subroutines, procedures or methods. Flooding code bases with this verbose incoherent mess creates a lot of technical debt. Who will clean up after Linus and at what cost? Should not weeding out complexity and fixing bugs be a priority over creating more chaos?
Tankies whining: “B-but voting does not change anything at all. It does not matter who gets elected. All parties have the exact same policies. LBJ and DJT are the same guy, they are one person.”
My source was my own experience that my Windows 11 volume is encrypted and I have never been asked about key upload. So I assumed this happens automatically. I guess I am mistaken. I did not consider that my installation has no online Microsoft account. But since Windows is closed source no one knows for sure what gets uploaded.
Realistically, there is no transition yet, there is only addition. The world is adopting new energy sources, but it is not exiting the old ones. Oil consumption keeps growing.
Technological solutions tend to cause just more and bigger problems. Why not change the processes that need to change anyway to transform agriculture into a sustainable activity? Like producing and distributing food locally, vegan, around the year, outside, and without fossil fuel based fertilizer. Furthermore, nitrogen being obtained by the plants themselves does nothing to solve the broken nitrogen cycle as long as nitrogen gets still flushed into waters instead of being collected and returned to the farmlands. You can't fix an ecologically flawed process by attaching high-tech gimmicks.
The root cause of everything bad, the error of errors, is to have private property of the means of production. Without it, we'd have a wealthy, technologically advanced civilization within planetary boundaries. Socialism first!
LLMs make stuff up. How shocking!!! And Republican big brain Marsha from Tennessee figured it all out. Award to her nothing less than the Nobel physics prize. The US need more geniuses like her to speed up its decline. It is so brave of her to violate the first amendment of her nation's constitution to interfere with this nasty free speech. Truly suitable behavior for a representative of a failed state.
I don't buy this. You wrote, “It's not really cheaper for those who matter (the bourgeoisie).” and then “Cheaper for government isn't the point that drives policy.” Yes, it is! Because the government is the government of the bourgeoisie. It is the ruling assembly for their capitalist economy. Ultimately, it is the working class who funds the government because it is the class which does all work. So, you could pretend that costs do not matter for the capitalists. But the working class can only pay in taxes what they got in wages. This means higher costs for government lower the profits of capitalists. (And we know that capitalists want to slash government spending wherever possible.) And that is why it is a cost to everybody in society when politicians decide to punish the poor for what is not their fault, when, for example, they maintain a homeless population at great costs while it is cheaper to house them in existing empty housing. This hurts the homeless the most, at the expense of everyone.
Runs on anything that runs Linux:

“The contradiction between socialized production and capitalistic appropriation manifested itself as the antagonism of proletariat and bourgeoisie.” – Frederick Engels: Socialism: Utopian and Scientific

There is no recommendation that a user can decline. Windows uploads the keys without asking, without consent.
