Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation!

Thank you

Slightly off-topic, please excuse the question:

I’m new to Fedora (and Linux Desktop in general) and saw the update for 40 yesterday. Is it save to simply hit the update button and let it do the update, or should I take any precautions, or anything afterwards which is expected to reset (settings, applications, etc? idk).

Data and such is savely backed up. That’s not a concern.

Double edged sword, but yeah.

Acquisitions don’t need to pay for themselves. Ideally they do, but sometimes it’s enough if they just help the company’s main business stay in business, or grow.

IBM is making $30bn+ in gross profit each year.

Most likely the mic is simply powered by the voltage which also powers the headphones.

But there’s also mics which don’t need voltage to work at all (unlikely for headsets tho).

Dark Gary doesn’t seem to care. Light Gary however seems to be looking out for you.

Dictatorships (or any otherwise ideology driven entities) will have their very own problems training AI. Cannot feed the AI material which goes against your own ideology or it might not act in your best interest.

I understand the struggle. I just got used to deal with it, I guess.

Wouldn’t want to miss it tho. Having to deal with a non-NoScripted-Internet is quite a no-go for me by now. (as ridiculous are it sounds)

NoScript, uBlock Origins, Privacy Badger, HTTPS Everywhere

I don’t think that’s entirely fair. Typically answers are getting upvoted when they work for someone. So the top answer worked for more people than the other answers. Now there can be more than one solution to a problem but neither the people who try to answer the question, nor the people who vote on the answers, can possibly know which of them works specifically for you.

ChatGPT will just as well give you a technically correct, but for you wrong, answer. And only after some refinement give the answer you need. Not that different than reading all the answers and picking the one which works for you.

I don’t want to compare the behavior, only the quality of the answers. An unintentional error of ChatGPT is still an error, even when it’s delivered with a smile. I absolutely agree that the behavior of some SO users is detrimental and pushes people away.

I can also see ChatGPT (or whatever) as a solution to that - both as moderator and as source of solutions. If it knows the solution it can answer immediately (plus reference where it got it from), if it doesn’t know the solution it could moderate the human answers (plus learn from them).

Amazing how much hate SO receives here. As knowledge base it’s working super good. And yes, a lot of questions have been answered already. And also yes, just like any other online community there’s bad apples which you have to live with unfortunately.

Idolizing ChatGPT as a viable replacementis laughable, because it has no knowledge, no understanding, of what it says. It’s just repeating what it “learned” and connected. Ask about something new and it will simply lie, which is arguably worse than an unfriendly answer in my opinion.

JS powered “matrix code”.
