I was traveling when the linux llm shite broke so I didn’t get much of a chance to scream in to the void so here I am. I have said as much before, but I think people underestimate what percentage of their definition of ‘usable computer’ is only possible by the grace of companies. If your idea of usable operating system precludes a modern web browser I hope you have friends at google or mozilla. If your idea of a usable operating system is one with working modern GPU drivers I hope you have friends at Nvidia or AMD. In other words, corporate interests have already captured your favorite popular operating system and have tied their own insurmountable(by outsiders for the most part) work to the very definition of what a ie functional linux system is for desktop use.Point is, if you want if you want anti-llm operating systems and software, you know where to find it, you just cant expect it to coexist with corporate interests and perhaps we could be a bit more honest about how much that impacts what folks define as a ‘usable’ system.I say this, posting from a linux install, so I sit comfortably in my glass house. However I think we need to stop fooling ourselves in to thinking linux or any product propped up by corporate involvement as anything but a corporate product. Expect no better of Torvalds than you would the CEO of Microsoft, their money comes from the same place after all.
