Nothing wrong with Ubuntu, but it’s interface is definitely geared more towards Mac folks.

My recommendation for someone making the jump to full time Linux is Fedora Kinoite. It’s “immutable” meaning impossible to break, and uses KDE Plasma, which is like the modern Windows you’ve always wanted.

Again nothing wrong with Ubuntu, it’s great and will run on the hardware you mentioned, but if you are someone who wants to tweak settings without fear of breaking something somewhere else, I really recommend Kinoite.

Privacy.com is easy, too.

This is what’s funny to me, “AI” investors must know on some level these products don’t actually work the way the companies claim, because if they did they would crash, not help, the economy as it exists now.

fake news

Ha! Yes so true.

Yeah that’s probably the simplest way!

Most of my 2025 was Silksong actually, but for only $20 it felt like a patient gamer moment!

I’m going to be that guy and point out that LLM’s are not really “AI”, that’s just the corporate buzzword but “AI” is a loosely defined thing.

I think we should all get better at calling them LLM’s publicly to take some of the magic woo-woo away.

Helpful! Thank you I will look into it.

Weird, I don’t have a new AI sidebar and I’m running the latest version.

If they don’t have power, they drop from the network or mesh.

That’s the problem, they don’t drop, the entity remains in a zombie state. Is there really no way to test if a device is still connected or not?

EDIT: Or just manually set an entity to “off”?

Well you’re in luck because the translation feature is local https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/website-translation

Don’t get me wrong I hate LLMs being shoved down our throats, but I think the “Mozilla using AI” stuff is overblown. The few LLM features they’ve implemented are useful and non-intrusive. I actually think it’s a rare example of the tech being used intelligently (no pun intended).

100% Also, y’know Ellen, or Will & Grace…

Eh, it’s the same man children that turn out to whine anytime a woman is doing anything other than trying to look sexy for them. I like these threads because it’s an easy way to find people to block.

Well said. I mean, the thing produced is literally called a WORK (of art).

This is it exactly.

“But how can we know if it’s a bot?”

We probably can’t based on a single comment or post, which is why rules need to be constructed around maintaining a level of effort and quality.

For a long time they were the only streaming service I was paying for because I wanted to support new Trek. Not anymore.

Honestly I was upset when they announced the “pivot to AI”, but Mozilla is the only company I’ve seen actually using LLM tech in a productive, helpful way. The link preview feature is nice too.
