Pronatalism is supported by Elon Musk and Peter Thiel which should raise alarm bells. Not to mention the links to other conservative techbro movements.

If they didn’t want to be associated with something that has shades of eugenics, they might have chosen a different name for their philosophy.

Duckduckgo also has bangs, which I consider an essential feature.

Although I use SearXNG instead, since their equivalent is a lot more customisable (although less bangs out of the box).

Another more technical article (in the context of Asahi Linux, the Linux port to Mac silicon devices) of the feature:

Does this work with Windows VMs?

No, it’s challenging to implement that because it’s basically using the same GPU drivers in the guest as in the host. To be clearer, the AMD kernel drivers on the host and Mesa userspace drivers in the guest.

I’m far from an expert but from my understanding either the official Windows drivers would need to implement some sort of compatibility layer, or Mesa would need to be ported to Windows. There’s some progress on the latter but probably a long way off.

Venus, which only translates Vulkan, might be a bit simpler to port to Windows (and should support Nvidia and Intel too) but it’s a bit slower most likely and you wouldn’t get compute and video decoding/encoding etc.

“I used to be a progressive but then a random liberal online was gently critical of me and now I believe immigrants are poisoning the blood of our race!”

Of course, I mean the training of the original models that the function is dependent on. It’s not caused by VLC itself of course.

Switching costs. It’s the same reason people keep using Facebook and X despite the fact both are widely hated.

If Linux was the dominant OS preinstalled on the majority of computers almost nobody would make the effort to install Windows.

No, no dig up stupid!

It’s called Llama and it’s one of the more prominent open source LLMs. So it’s got that going for it at least.

The container was rebuilt a couple of years ago and I don’t think it has any significant limitations now. There are examples using mariadb (which I’m using) and I don’t see why PostgreSQL wouldn’t be configurable in the same way.

A server in a friend/family member’s home. All of the cloud based backups I’ve encountered seem either unaffordable or have annoying limitations.

I get the vibe of what you’re saying but SteamOS is only slightly less customisable than other distributions and so it’s pretty much a more stable, fully featured distribution in the end. With plenty of opportunity to learn and tinker.

So it could be a bit of a gateway drug to a less passive mindset but well see.

Social sciences are important even if finding truth is messier and happens over a longer period.

In any case, misinformation is often not something that can argued as just a difference of opinion. There are obvious cases like outright lies about the occurrence of events such as “immigrants eating pets en masse” or “the bowling green massacre”, or that the “greenhouse warming effect” doesn’t exist.

Fact checking doesn’t have to be outright removal either, it just needs a critical analysis of the facts, and people can make up their own minds.

The training of the models themselves also takes a lot of power usage.

Instead you’re going to get an extreme right-wing conservative that will make life objectively worse, as they always do.
