I think your own statements here are pretty elitist.

"As a rule, strong feelings about issues do not emerge from deep understanding."

Does it have accounts?

I swear people will never be happy no matter what.

No AI features? Get with the times man.

AI features? High treason.

Opt-out? Not good enough.

Opt-in? Nobody will use it.

Can't please everyone I guess.

I wonder if you need to explicitly prompt it to check if a function really exists before suggesting it? Think about how a human brain works... we are constantly evaluating whether or not things are really true based on info in our heads... but we are not telling the models to do the same thing and instead they just yolo some shit that is confidently-wrong (not unlike many humans, admittedly).

Why?

So 1 month becomes... 2 years?

I know it's not BSD but, gentoo already does similar with elogind to support all init systems with gnome, so maybe they could use something like that too.

gentoo uses elogind to emulate the systemd interfaces required by gnome

You can alter your PAM configuration to require both: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/572841

On my system, by default it lets you use either one to authenticate any time a password is needed, but this can be changed to require successful authentication using BOTH methods if desired.

I wasn't sure if you were wanting to require both, or just allow either one to be used, but both scenarios are trivial to configure.

Most of the games I play don't work on wine (Teknoparrot), and multiple machines I have are either missing or have broken essential drivers for built-in peripherals like wifi/BT, fingerprint readers etc. So... I had to go back.

One of my laptops has a 10+ year old unfixed kernel bug for the bluetooth not working... and the wifi only uploads at 1mbps under Linux, but works fine on Windows.

I'm sure people that don't happen to have random hardware/software incompatibilities are enjoying linux, but there's also still lots of people that can't switch.

Open source is the very worst thing currently going on because it is so incredibly exploitative, it's far more exploitative than any actual company is of the workers who work at the company.

Even the people who are getting paid in open source are getting massively underpaid to do it compared to how much the people who are using their code are making, it's nothing compared to the power that is accreted by the people who have co-opted that work thanks to the open source model. And then mark zuckerberg gets to define how the internet works despite having paid for almost none of the software that his company actually needed to make that work.

It's like feudalism or serfdom, these people did the work and got nothing for it. It's like you took the worst aspects of capitalism for workers and the worst aspects of socialism for workers and put them together, that's open source. You get no power and you get no money.

It's exploitative whether the people chose to be exploited, just because someone chooses to let you exploit them does not mean that you didn't exploit them. And for the record that's how most exploitation works; convincing people to do something that turns out to be very bad for them and very good for you, and that's exactly what the open source movement has turned out to be.

I really don't see the "we post stuff on github under a gpl2 or lgpl or apache or mit license", all that is to me now is just exploitation. You can say that there's solutions but until someone demonstrates that those solutions work, it's the standard "real communism has never been tried" argument. AGPL is the only thing that I've seen so far that's an attempt to fix these fundamentally unfair compensation practices.

I could not even view it on firefox as I got endless captcha loops.
