    Great. Now those gamers should get mad at open source emulator devs who make it hard to play old games without running code they gleefully sloppify.

    In any other moment in history this would be a huge red flag.

    But when even open source devs lick the AI/LLM boot constantly, I'm inclined to believe that yes, you are one of the few sane ppl left.

  3. @elementary Hi! I recently installed your OS on an old A1224 model iMac for the purposes of audio recording. I'm typing from it right now, and it's working well so far, but I have a couple questions. The two big ones are as follows:

    • The external drives I use for saving project files and holding media don't mount automatically when the computer boots, and aren't even detected unless I unplug them and plug them back in, after which I still have to open them in Files to mount them properly. I have a feeling this is due to the external USB hub I'm using, which is large enough to require it's own power source. If detection of the SSDs is based around them powering on alongside the computer, that'd be an issue since the drives are constantly powered from the wall. I'll plug them in directly and restart the computer to test this if that works, but if I quit out now I'll lose what I've typed. lol

    • I use a Behringer U-phoria UMC1820 interface for recording, and that causes issues that aren't unique to Elementary, but are harder to troubleshoot on it. Due to the way it informs Linux (PulseAudio or PipeWire, whichever part of the chain it directly talks to) of it's inputs and outputs, it causes oddly specific issues. I think it's best if I detail how this issue behaved on Linux Mint, the previous distro I used for recording, and then how Elementary differs slightly.
      Mint succeeds in detecting the UMC1820 and lets it be selected in it's sound settings. However, due to the interface itself labeling all of it's ins and outs as "auxiliary" something, the computer has no clear "left" and "right" channels to use as defaults. Mint assumes that the first two "aux" outs are the default left and right, which is correct, and aside from a couple bugs I couldn't get around in specific software, it still works as normal.
      Elementary detects the interface but doesn't list it as an option in it's sound settings, I can only imagine because there are technically no default outputs to… list. I was only able to make it output through the device by installing PulseAudio Volume Control and selecting it there, resulting in NO options being selected in the dedicated sound settings, and the options in the upper right corner of the screen incorrectly stating I was outputting through the built-in speakers.
      I was worried it would switch back once I rebooted, and thankfully this isn't the case, but I thought you should be made aware of this issue so that maybe, if nothing else, the weird interface could at least be shown under sound settings proper. I've given up on trying to "label" the correct outputs as "left" and "right" instead of aux 0 or 1 or whatever, that's likely a PulseAudio issue and a lost cause.

    Daunting as that second one is to explain, I promise it's not a huge deal and I AM able to record and play back sound regardless. It just would have been really confused and concerned if I hadn't had prior experience with Mint, and knew that I could likely fix the issue by using other Pulse tools.

    Thank you for making software that's ethical and anti-LLM. I thought the whole FOSS scene would be more against AI slop, but it's hard to find an OS that stands against that tech-bro garbage, let alone software to use on it. I appreciate it so very much.

  4. @mos_8502 I'm getting tempted to look at NetBSD... And switching to #Guix since at least they support Hurd too. Here's to hoping for a strong #AntiLLM policy from FSF

  5. Looking for any projects that have stated on their website that they won't be using AI! Art / Programs / Games, Etc

  6. Dis Masto, je recherche d'ici vendredi des articles sourcés (ou des sources direct) sur les biais sexistes, racistes etc. des LLM (principalement) et IA de génération images (en bonus).
    J'ai plus trop les cuillères de chercher moi-même et j'ai des gens à qui présenter ça samedi pour prendre des mesures dans une asso.
    Anglais ok, francais encore mieux pour les articles.

    Le partage fait disparaître la dissonnace cognitive des gauchos pro IA (on peut toujours rêver non ?)

  7. Fanfiction writers are writers. A ton of people got started writing fanfic, and found a deep love for writing.

    Some transitioned that to writing originals, some did not.
    ALL of them are writers.

    Except the ones who use LLMs. Those sloppers can get lost.

  8. Is there a good way to fuck up AI scrapers aimed at #forgejo instances?

  9. Something that should not be a hot take.

    I don’t want to read or engage with AI things because I just think human-made things are better, full stop. I like seeing the little flaws in the stitching because it reminds me it was made with human hands.

  10. A friend asked me today "wait, what's the ethical issue you have with LLMs?" and hoo boy is there no way to concisely provide that info without sounding like a raging conspiracy theorist. It's all pretty well documented and supported by fact, it just sure sounds like it shouldn't be! If that were true wouldn't everyone know it and also be horrified instead of enamored with these cool new toys?? Wouldn't it!??

  11. Excellent one by @WeirdWriter-

    "They are selling you a solution to a problem they created. They want you to feel insecure. If you feel insecure, you pay the subscription. They are strip-mining your confidence to sell you back a synthetic version of it."

    Thanks to @cherizilla for alerting me to it!

  12. OK, so when we form a mass movement against all things Slop and "automated bureaucracy", what's a catchy name?

    Of course the same movement should also be anti-genocide, pro-equality, anti-racist, anti-colonialist etc. etc.

    I try to come up with stuff that centers humans etc., but those were all taken already.

    Boost widely please

  13. Hello, fellow genAI/LLM sceptics.

    Which of the 4 hashtags listed would you find most useful? Other suggestions?

    Feel free to boost.

    (It's OK if you are not an LLM sceptic, but then this poll is not for you.)

  14. @urlyman

    Important thoughts on what genAI / LLMs do to us, thank you.

    Love the term "degenerative LLM"!

    I'm still looking for the right hashtags to identify this strand of reflection. #noAI #noLLM #antiAI #antiLLM #antiGenAI #degenerativeAI #degenerativeLLM ?

  15. I'm looking for a non-LLM chatbot or chatbot framework. The problem is all of the pre-LLM stuff that was halfway decent is sort of hard to find now because of... *gestures vaguely*

    Does anyone have any recommendations? I understand any decent solution may need to be built by hand.

    Things I've looked at so far:
    RiveScript
    Brain.js

  16. Is anyone, anywhere, compiling a list of employers who are AI-last? (#AntiLLM, or whatever phrase works for "We value people and will not be using #LLMs")
    Signed, the Anti-AIst.
    (Please boost for reach, thanks)

  17. A director at work reached out to me, asking if I was interested in giving a talk promoting the use of GitHub copilot (I was asked because I had been enrolled in an optional GitHub copilot training series, even though I never attended any of the trainings).

    I am, explicitly anti-llm, and I said as much, citing quality, plagiarism, their resource usage, etc.
    Interestingly, this person said he found this perspective of interest to him because he hadn’t heard of these concerns before. He said he’d schedule time for us to go over this more in-depth. I hope this was something said in good faith.

    Now, lazyweb, what sources do you have for a lot of these concerns and claims? Like, where does the claim that “a 100-200 word response from ChatGPT uses about 2 water bottles of water” come from?
    That Microsoft paper about how llms make us think less critically is also great, and I already have a link to that.

    Thanks!
