@lwn There is no responsible use of LLMs.

I've loved #Debian for years. Decades, really. The main reason for that is it's always seemed, to me, to be the best place to actually control and own your own computer.
That trust is gone for me. We can talk responsible, not responsible, whatever. The fact is, LLMs are trained on the hard work of billions of people, and put into a blender and sold back to us. It's more separation of workers from the fruit of their labors, to the profit of capitalists.
That's not even getting into the environmental impacts, the bias in it, etc. And especially not getting into the horrible, HORRIBLE people in charge of it all.
I do not want that on my laptop, folks. I just don't.

Disappointed that #Debian has chosen what seems like the worst possible option in its vote on LLMs.
No acknowledgement of the harms involved in LLM usage; instead, a claim that they ‘substantially improve productivity’. (It claims not to be an endorsement but makes only pro-LLM statements.)
Vague platitudes about using LLMs ‘responsibly’ when it’s become very clear by now that LLM users can’t be trusted to be responsible without constant supervision. And no requirement for disclosure of LLM usage, even.
It didn’t seem likely that the strongest anti-LLM proposals would pass, but it would have been nice to have at least some restrictions put into place.

So, Debian has fallen, thanks to the (infiltration of?) tech bro supporters. Weren't we supposed to be working/fighting against them? What a truly sad day. How did this happen?
The "social contract" has now been compromised IMHO: It allows for contributing to the destruction of life on our planet as we know it, is generally OK with copyright theft and copyleft whitewashing, and will contribute to the slop-to-code ratio on the interwebs. I would never have imagined this. The social contract felt safe...
I've been most exclusively using Debian from 1998-2016 and considered become a -developer a couple of times.

RE: https://neuromatch.social/@jdp23/117164715463719268
Now that the ATmosphere has some more nodes on it, the big reason given for not using ActivityPub, missing replies, turns out to be also a problem on the ATmosphere.
All stuff I called out as being likely to be challenges, it's just that the ATmosphere (Bluesky etc) didn't have enough decentralization happening yet.
In fact, it's going to be harder to get this right on the ATmosphere as more full nodes appear, because the fediverse has an *imperfect* mechanism with directed delivery (with some improvements in spec for the server at the top of the thread helping to share replies it's seen, and other implementation such as Mastodon have also added good features like reply-fetching, so this isn't even a big complaint you see from users anymore). But the shared heap architecture doesn't have that.
ATproto *could add* addressing and directed delivery, and I believe to address these issues, will have to.

This is the new Pixelfed. Not a redesign, a rebuild.
The entire webUI from scratch: faster, more accessible, and properly responsive on mobile and desktop.
Coming soon. #pixelfed

It seems to me that if legislators are genuinely worried about social media harming children through adverse algorithms, they could require that the algorithms are transparently auditable. Otherwise one might think they’re trying to add identity surveillance through the back door.

Another x86 Advisory From Some Entity Other Than Intel Or AMD
Last October I highlighted an interesting post on the Linux kernel mailing list around an x86 corporate entity other than Intel or AMD that left mysterious intrigue. The developer that detailed those x86 opcode/CPUID/MSR allocations back in July then detailed 16-tile and 32-tile AMX implementations again for something outside the current scope of Intel/AMD processors. Today another message is being relayed fr…
