  • Gentoo Leads Again

    From Farley Flud@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 23 12:09:47 2024
    Check out the banning of AI "code" by Gentoo:

    https://www.yahoo.com/tech/linux-distros-ban-tainted-ai-181944403.html

    Where are the other distros?

    Debian, as expected, are giving in just like they gave in to systemd.
    Milksop bastards.

    Of course Ubuntu (and deriv's) will also succumb. Ubuntu was all AI
    even before AI.

    I used Gentoo at work and home for like 6 or 7 years in the 2000's
    I love it and I really like the portage system, I been wanting to move
    back to it from Arch GNU/Linux but lately someone posted on lemmy they
    also are working on an installer this will be the main reason why I move
    away from Arch GNU/Linux I do not want a community experienced with
    operating systems and unix that has done a great work fill up with lazy
    noobs that do not want to put the time to learn the in and outs of an
    OS. :shurgs: nothing again noobs, or new people they welcome I mean
    the lazy ones that want spoon fed distros. I think the greatness of free software and such is that there are software and distros for all
    types/tastes and computing needs, from the "I just want things to work"
    to the hacker "I want things my way, do not pre-do anything for me" and
    all in the middle in between Arch and Gentoo GNU/Linux are not distros
    for the "I just want things to work" and making this way only annoys the current community.


    My 2 cents
    Happy Hacking

    It's good to have choices that are not dumbed-down for the masses,
    yes.

    nothing again noobs, or new people they welcome I mean
    the lazy ones that want spoon fed distros.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that...

    I think the greatness of free
    software and such is that there are software and distros for all
    types/tastes and computing needs, from the "I just want things to work"
    to the hacker "I want things my way, do not pre-do anything for me"

    Correct.

    and all in the middle in between Arch and Gentoo GNU/Linux are not distros >for the "I just want things to work" and making this way only annoys the >current community.

    As long as there are choices, there's no reason for anyone to be
    annoyed.
