How about the US, period?

Did you understand anything in that marketdroid BS? I didn't.

All this screams to me is: avoid - avoid - avoid.

and summer is ultra-messed-up too here. We've had 2 days at 64 degrees this year, but otherwise it barely goes above 50. It's really rare here to have such a long, sustained bout of cold weather around midsummer.

The tech world isn't the "intellectual" class. It's the crass profit-at-all-costs business class. That's why they market AI: they know perfectly well AI is shit and nobody but corporate bean counters want it, but corporate bean counters is where the money is.

It's becoming a selling point.

Hell, I even watched a video leaked from some OnlyFans account that had the preamble "This content creator prides herself in making her own content herself entirely: no AI bullshit involved!" If the porn industry rejects it, you know it's bad for business.

I don't want AI slop in the kernel I rely on for work. Fuck that guy.

Sadly I run Sway.

As for RDP, if your internet is speedy enough, it's fine. I work remotely regularly and I RDP into my Linux box at work no problem.

including screen recording. TFA is incorrect on that one.

What it really, REALLY lacks is proper remoting. The best option available at the moment is wayvnc - i.e. VNC over a headless Wayland session. It works, but VNC sucks ass. There's no RDP support and there's no remote session greeter.

Fortunately, my only Wayland machine is a laptop, so it's not like I need to remote it a lot, if at all.

The only thing that resonates is the empty brains of vroom-vroom lovers.

Using Google - a company built entirely around ads and whatever vile things they have to do to increase ad revenues - to block ads. You gotta love it!

I genuinely want a pair of AR glasses.
At last a use case worth the hassle!

That right there should tell you how much added value this company provides.

As long as they talk slick, sound authoritative and sycophantic, and more importantly cost less than human labor, companies will replace human by mediocre AI.

Because capitalism is a race to the bottom.

You're using privacy-invading software made by privacy-invading Big Data companies using data stolen from millions of people. What did you expect?

If you don't want mass surveillance, avoid Big Data software.

Mine's an MNT Reform. Even fully loaded, its performances are lackluster at best. Think entry-level laptop from 5 years ago kind of perforrmances. Or maybe top-of-the-line Raspberry Pi. But performance is not the point of this machine.

Still, sluggish though it is, it's quick enough for 95% of what I do. And since I'm not into modern games, it works fine for me for gaming too.
