Dear Linux community,

In these shite times, we need to remember to see the human in all of us. So I address the humans of this community:

  1. To the Stallmanites. SCREW CORPORATE YEAHHHHH! Each day humanity grows smarter, no matter how many iPad kids or mass media diatribes there are, so celebrate how far we've fucking come. Look at your oldest machine. You're a million times better. My old Slackware was full of SHIT! FUCK YEAH

  2. To the pragmatists. Linux doesn't get in your way. People get in each others' ways all the time. But most importantly, don't get in your own way. If you're feeling like shit -- the human capacity to hope beats everything to a pulp. You know what we do when shit fucks? We submit a fucking pull request. FUCK YEAH

  3. To the hobbyists. Life is a bundle of fun so feel every moment. When you're old, and you'll be old as fuck, you'll be like "fuck yeah I lived every moment of my life up to now." So fuck another segfault up. Learn C, and call C the best language. Then learn Rust and call Rust the best language. Make a homelab then call homelab the best language. FUCK YAML HOLY SHIIIIIIIT

Flaming hot wishes,

Your fellow fucking human.

Made with no blood, no sweat, and no tears in fucking GNU's Not Unix Image Manipulation Program.

If you haven't already, try out KDE's Krita. Incredible piece of software, much better for drawing imo

Basest of Based.

Personally, I try to mainly use locally hosted Open Source LLMs, and mostly for research purposes.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago

"Open Source" is a misnomer for LLMs. The weights are comparable to binary blobs.

[-] flashgnash@lemm.ee 2 points 11 hours ago

The difference is nobody knows what the binary blobs are made of

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 2 points 10 hours ago

You could recreate them if you had the training data, which is pretty much never disclosed.

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 hours ago

You could of course use one of the models that are trained on open data sets. Maybe a little worse than those directly from Mistral etc but truly open source

Are they free range and GMO free? 🙄

[-] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

“Mainly” and “mostly” 🤨

[-] azron@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago

Got any good tutorials that you've been happy with?

[-] theshatterstone54@feddit.uk 4 points 1 day ago

I just use GPT4All

[-] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
