I live in the US, you’re more likely to die in a car accident than get killed by someone with a gun. Plus all us Americans should be pretty desensitized to shootings and what not now, just get over it lol

Maybe it doesn’t reach your criteria of a “certain level”, but there’s definitely stories of people winning significant amounts of money in the lottery and being broke years later because they are morons.
I would like to add that if you want to do any real customization of your setup don’t get mac either.
Instead of having your windows float around, they perfectly snap and fill the space of the monitor depending on how many windows you have open. A new DE in alpha right now called Cosmic has both floating windows and tiling, you can change with just a toggle.
Cosmic is great so far, I run it on Fedora.
GIMPs biggest upgrade in like a decade should be coming out this year, you’ll have to check it out and see if it meets your needs when it does.
Not open source apps, glad I’ve pivoted to almost entirely open source software. SaaS is cancer.
Unrelated to the main post but your comment brings up a point I think is important for society to understand. “pedophiles are afraid to seek help.” Pedophilia is a mental disorder and doesn’t inherently mean someone is a criminal, or ever will become one. But because it is such a violent and life destroying term to be labeled as a pedo those who have this mental disorder and are struggling to not offend will never seek the mental help they desperately need, this in turn leads to children being harmed.
Everyone is responsible for their actions, and pedophiles who rape or hurt kids are also responsible for their actions, but society as a whole contributes to more children being harmed by the way we represent and treat the mental disorder.
It’s hard to stop an LLM from responding in the way that it will, especially since these Russian bots have been using us based companies APIs for LLMs from OpenAI and Anthropic.
OpenAI and Anthropic can hardly stop their LLMs from giving bomb instructions, or participating in questionable sexual role playing that they would rather people not use their systems for. It’s very hard to tame an LLM.
Of course Russians paying for these APIs can’t stop the LLMs from acting how they normally would, besides giving them a side to argue on in the beginning.
You just don’t understand the technology. (I don’t either but I know more than you)
“incoming cosmic rays” I use cosmic DE btw
Probably a lot less than what’s in the ocean!
Such senseless loss of life in the name of religion.
If they’d died in the Saudi heat to a secular activity - at an F1 race event or inside a poorly A/C’d movie theater or trapped on an overheated bus - would that have been better?
Well I think religion is one of the few things you can get enough uneducated/dedicated people to die in the hundreds from heat stroke without people being like"I should probably leave"
All the examples you gave, of course except being trapped on a bus, people would realize there is a serious issue and start leaving once the first handful of people died.
“I’m not leaving the theater till I see the end of Iron man 2, I don’t care that half the theaters dead and I’m next!”
EDIT
the Hajj as a cultural event was originally intended as this class-agnostic unifying practice social event.
lol, weren’t women not allowed to go alone until recently or still?
The proper, politically correct term is femoid nowadays. Heard it on 4chan
Well I’ll have you know I do the same but with Fedora Linux (like arch Linux but imo better). I use fedora btw.
Blender does fucking everything lol, insane how much is packed into that amazing piece of FOSS
Blender is low key the best video editor on Linux for future reference
I mean he’s tech illiterate when it comes to anything semi complicated but with the way he uses his pc and the software he uses it would just not be possible for him to switch at all, would be unable to do 70% of the stuff he wants to do.
Linux is only good for the truly tech illiterate/pretty noice users in my opinion. After that you hit a point where they are literate just enough that they would need to solve problems on linux they wouldn’t have to on windows and their inability to solve problems on Linux make their experience bad.
One level above that Linux is the better option again though.
But the same can be said with windows. My life long windows user friend occasionally (a few times a year) reaches out about some significant issues they are experiencing with windows on their modern desktop.
I truly wouldn’t recommend Linux for a fairly tech illiterate person like him, but really Linux is better in every category that matters to me.
Smart Nvidia users are ex Nvidia users
It’s actually easier to keep your graphics drivers updated on Linux vs windows, at least with AMD cards. All I have to do is type “sudo dnf upgrade” or if you’re lazy click the “update” button and my system and GPU drivers are up to date.
Also in regards to games, basically everything on steam works flawlessly and that will satisfy the majority of desktop gamers
While it is completely possible musk believes things like this. I still mostly think he just wants to pander to his primary audience and doesn’t mind spreading things he knows aren’t true.
