Dear Linux community,

In these unpredictable and often challenging times, I feel it’s more important than ever to pause and share heartfelt wishes. Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!

Let this holiday season be a moment of peace, where you can step back, breathe, and find some calm amidst the chaos. Take the opportunity to reconnect, reflect, and perhaps even find inspiration for the year ahead.

May your days be filled with joy, your systems stay secure, and your kernels remain stable. Here’s to a festive season full of positivity and open-source spirit!

Warm wishes,

Your fellow penguin at heart.

P.S.: I had very little time, so the whole thing, was AI accelerated! Please forgive me :-)

        King Terry the Terrible is watching everyone that uses TempleOS and will execute anyone who misuses it with an A10 gun, the fist of God.

      In these corporate times we can stay free, share the code, and help our neighbors. Together we can share the joyous spirit of friendship, hacking, and arguing endlessly over which distro is best. In conclusion, Linux provides us with many good things, and should be celebrated.

      Could they? What if they don’t have the skills to draw it themselves?

        A text post without a picture would achieve the same result just fine, without stealing work from artists and regurgitating it into a soulless, artifact-ridden and generally ugly picture.

        It’s just a sign of carelessness, a shitty drawing would mean more as OP would have put effort into it and willingness to learn a skill. And it’s not just the drawing, the text is AI as well, so OP just wants some free internet points with as little effort

        So because they don’t have the skills they should steal and claim it as their own?

    Your AI acceleration makes the whole thing a lot less genuine.

          This is irrational and reactionary.

          It’s a take based on an appeal to nature and noble savage fallacies propogated by neolibs and marketing teams making the “organic” play with their products.

          AI is just a tool, it’s misuse by Corpos is something we all agree is bad, but by themselves tools do not make you or anyone else less human, nor do glasses make those of poor sight less human etc.

          How the absurdity of making such a statement on a sub defined by an identity tied to a computer operating system doesn’t make you re-think that claim is beyond me.

          Be better.

          Edit: and no it’s pointless to argue, nobody changes their minds, I’m just posting stuff like this so assholes I would like to have blocked come out and make themselves known as they always do.

            Your 2nd paragraph is just a lie made up in your own head.

            AI isn’t a tool, a brush is. A brush or any other tool lets humans create. an IGA (image generation algorithm) often mislabelled as AI doesn’t let you create instead it TAKES what other humans already had created and shushes it together without regard for any artistic expression, since as a computer program, it’s incapable of art. It’s plagiarism with extra steps.

            Ai as a thing only exists today because it’s in the interest of corporations to replace humans with machines in order to funnel more wealth to the owning class.

            However in a society with class equality AI would be worthless. It cannot “make” anything without someone else already having made that thing first, it’s a waste of time and an erosion to society, a cancer.

            You will never change because simply put, you’re not smart enough to. You’re incapable of understanding how and why you’re wrong because you lack the intelligence, education and desire to grow.

    Nothing says “Linux” more than paying a megacorp to steal the hard work of artists…

    OP, please don’t post any more AI slop so I don’t get flooded with reports from users.

    I don’t know why everyone is saying it reads weird or its AI slop. To me it seemed pretty normal while reading, but I guess I’m so used to everything being written by AI nowadays I didn’t notice at first. How do you all spot it usually?

    Stop using AI to generate images. It’s obvious, it looks awful, and companies are genuinely looking to use it to stop having to pay human artists.
