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.

Same as Debian is going to allow devs to use LLMs to develop for Debian.
People out there who think they can avoid AI this way are really just delusional. Its everywhere at this point.
If its not in the software you are using, the software that runs the software has it. Or the software that runs the software that runs the software. Its inescapable.
You're on the internet? Millions of lines of AI code are probably involved in you seeing this message across the entire infrastructure needed to allow this.
apathy is evils best friend
"ai" could be replaced with 'slavery' or another myriad of fucked up things humans do in your point.
Decent people have to be against indecent things, even if they are beating their heads against a wall because of the other people who do not care.
Here I was waiting for linux to be truly viable on mobile, because android is... android, and now linux is... linux
At least I have a pencil I can probably trust
