I recently visited a museum and i really loved it. Getting up close to an image and seeing none of the fuzziness, no AI “shimmer” on photos and every stroke made sense (as in you could see that an arm moved a brush and you could see the path it took etc.). Hands made sense. And while tryptichons were not exactly precise when it comes to the anatomy of humans, no humans had anything smeared etc.
It was the best of times, it was the BLURST OF TIMES! Stupid monkey!
Microsoft still makes money off the OEM licenses AFAIK. The Linux community had a whole day about this back in the 90s.
What if a new OS comes with, say, a GPU driver that is not compatible anymore? Is there not even an override for this possible? I have a PC with the GTX 970 which in computer terms is basically just after the meteorite crash ending the jurassic era. And i have been considering to use Bazzite OS for this machine.

I wonder why ad tech can‘t be „Let‘s show ads that correspond to what‘s being talked about on that website.“ Kinda like what Google suggested with Topics but without following me through the internet.
Open Source doesn’t mean automatically that applications look ugly. It only means that they look ugly on non-Linux systems. Like VLC Player, Open Office, etc.
Linux systems are easy to install. The real challenge is to diagnose an issue. What caused the crash of GTA V? The new Mesa drivers? The new Gamescope update? Some update in the game that breaks in conjunction with KDE running in Wayland? But you launched the game in xwayland, how could Wayland still cause trouble? Or is it the latest FEX update you installed because you saw a Youtuber playing Elden Ring on their iPhone 14 Pro with HoloISO and you figured that the 15 Pro should handle the game perfectly?
Meanwhile at Tuxedo OS:
Manager: “So, we need a set of Wallpapers for that Linux we have.”
Worker: “Alright, so i suggest that we add some vistas from germany in there and some nature photography.”
Manager: “Classic and beautiful, but i feel like we need a little twist to that.”
Worker: “Alright, so was if we were to run an algorithm that turns random parts of the wallpaper into polygonal art?”
Manager: “How random exactly?”
Worker: “Totally! The only rule is that half of the wallpaper has to have that look but there’s no rhyme or reason to which parts will be turned into polygons.”
Manager: “I love it. Can we also super impose our logo on the wallpaper so that people can always rest assured that the Linux they booted is still the Linux they installed and that it’s our Linux?”
Worker: “Absolutely sir!”
Charlie Brooker stopped making Black Mirror because of that user
