Given that I avoid services that require subscription, Mullvad had been off my list for years already, but this is just sad to hear. And even more now that the best are proven to be Nazis by act or by association, so I prefer to just keep using Proton’s free tier for the time being and being more a hindrance than a money source for them as possible.

2·3 days agoAI, as it stands in the form we know it now, has no responsible, considerate or ethical future. So long as there are pedophile oligarchies, any such technology can not feasible exist in an ethical manner.
Paraphrasing as the Star Trek fans say: first you get Socialism / Communism, and from there you get the matter replicators.

Now that is some gaslighting. Proton handed over environmental activists to a fascist state quite after 2019.

2·6 days agoI’d say FOSS is not more political than paying taxes.
Which already means a lot: not paying rent for the right to exist as a natural person in an environment managed by what is essentially a rent-seeker who got there beforehand and accrued more power, is already quite a political decision. And I’ve not even gotten to the political point of if the resources acquired via taxing are used correctly or for the benefit of that local society.

2·6 days agoAs other answers have made patent, I think the point is quite clear. When you look at the viable options for personal computing currently, Linux stands as the one that actually has some thought and backing to it to work in a social manner (rather than an anti-social manner). And so on.
That said, I don’t exactly get why you are downvoted. I think the distinctions are important to point out and the question important to ask. It’s just that Linus personally is mistaken about it.

30·7 days agoPast the whole thing about theft of code, theft of wages and theft of rights, my next problem with AI is that it’s viral, in even worse terms than say the GPL is viral.
Once you accept slop submissions into a project, you have the problem that someone would have to check it. But why spend your own mental and emotional energy, better dedicated to dealing with and interacting with fellow humans, to trudge through a mass of hallucinated, gaslighting crap? Better set up some AI that checks the submitted code.
And now you have two problems.
Fortunately, lists like Open Slopware exist.
Linus is severely mistaken that Linux is not a “social warrior” project, but I guess that’s mostly because he’s the face the community has to try and “sanitize” for corporate the posture that people like RMS have. Gone are the times where he would openly flip Nvidia the bird. Which is not bad, but it’s unfortunately ill-timed: if history has taught us anything useful this decade is that, right now, bootlicking to corporate and its trends such as “uniformity” and “neutrality” is not the win you think it is.

2·9 days agoIs it feasible to run eg.: Steam, within a (s)chroot that does not have host /proc and /sys mounted? That wouldn’t do that much by itself but I guess it would help more when combined with running as a different user (and not mounting host /home).
