      The timing was just right. It was the one thing that convinced me to finally break from the inertia and switch over. Outside the steam deck, I'd never used linux before in my life, but I gave arch a shot and so far I'm sticking with it. It's been just as good, if not better than windows

      My suspicion is that Chris Titus actually thinks Lunduke is very valuable, but is too chickenshit to say it, and so instead made a trash video to alert people to his existence.

    It's very interesting reasoning, that goes into why such a broken dead end, has such a high priority and a high level of praise, from western corporations and the western upper classes.
    Ever since occupy wallstreet, they realized that their days were numbered as long as they had an underclass who understood what corrupt macro economics meant. From then until now, they've been applying a consistent effort to grind down and destroy that underclass.
    AI doesn't work -- but they need it to work. If they're going to make it, they need it to replace that underclass.

    Political opinions of those who make your information processing tools, once those opinions are let to start affecting the products they make, will inevitably translate into some form of censorship or undue pressure on their end users. As for AI, personally I dislike the tools that pretend to be more clever then users. First - they never are. Second - the tool developers will inevitably do their best to teach users to become more stupid then their tools. Jensen "kids shouldn't learn coding" Huang is a good example (like we don't already have the software trend to not really add in functionality but to add in resource consumption for a couple of decades).

      No, history didn't start with 15th century Europe. Nor did acquisition by invasion start with them, not even in the Americas. In the old days, the only way to get ahead was by taking stuff by force. The genius of the West is that we developed a less invasive and more efficient way to prosper. Protestantism created the modern libertarian west. We (Protestants) ended slavery; implemented religious freedom, political freedom, academic freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press FIRST, and thus caused the academic, scientific, technological, and material progress that followed; and most of the rest of the world hasn't caught up with it yet. John 8:32 "You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
