That's too much. The management class doesn't really understand math, they don't understand statistics, they don't understand technology. They are just bullies hoping to make money somehow. They are like Trump, but not as mouthy.

The people actually building the AI are mostly just trying to build the best thing they can, or alternately, just do their job and get paid. There's no grand scheme, but if given the chance to make a billion dollars, a lot of them will take it, nevermind if it ruins the economy.

Comment Re: Poettering (Score 1) 88

I just want a way to write a scheduled task with one line instead of an entire config file. Like maybe you run CMD -l to see all these lines and then CMD -e to edit them. Or you could execute CMD -u USER -l as root to see another users lines. Another thing I would like is to be able to just put startup scripts in one directory and have them run instead of doing all kinds of configuration. But what do I know, I have only been using Linux since the original Slackware.

Comment Trump wants an attack (Score 1) 59

It benefits Donald Trump if the US gets attacked. The more Americans who die the more it benefits him. That alone would make me very afraid if I was an American, because he has been setting up all his life to make it look like a mistake. Trump only cares about nukes in Iran because those could kill him. But any smaller attack that cannot get through his ivory walls will benefit him. And Americans are either forgiving him for his incompetency or powerless to do anything about it.

Comment Re: Plex's business model (Score 1) 49

People who aren't technical have no idea what Plex or jellyfin are. That's the funny thing about all of this. Furthermore it would be equally as impossible to walk my parents through seeing up Plex as it would be with jellyfin. I have set up both D there was no difference. I'm wondering who these people are that are non-technical enough to be thrown off by jellyfin but savvy enough to know what Plex is and use it.

I did comment on the _kernel_. I did not comment on Weyland (which IMO is a really bad idea and I will avoid it as long as possible). I certainly did not comment on the fuckups behind systemd, that clearly show there are prominent people that do not get KISS or IT security in the Linux space as well.

As to MS, yes they do not care or are fundamentally incompetent regarding security. They push defective patches. They have ridiculous vulnerabilities. They had their cloud hacked several times now, always due to abjectly stupid mistakes. There is a reason that they claimed "security is our highest priority" several times now, always after they screwed up massively. MS cares about security exactly as far as they think they need to in order to stay in business and not one bit more.
