    Well that’s what “condone” means fwiw.

    I see it the same as how steam does the same thing with requiring disclosure of ai use on store pages now. And I treat it the same way if I see it I make a consumer choice to not support the game.

    What disturbed me was reading the minutes of the meeting that people seemed genuinely excited to include gen ai code. To me that speaks to an ethos that is highly divergent from what I would like to see and what should be happening. It doesn’t feel like it’s “welp I guess we gotta let people do it” and more “oh boy we can finally use it”. And with all the companies that make llm how long before some back door evil nonsense sneaks in. To say I’m dubious would be an understatement. 🤷

    First was technically knoppix because it had a live boot cd function. That didn’t go well. There was some kind of bug where it murdered the bios on my pentium2 and I was unable to recover the system, bricking the computer.

    First time I was able to fully install and use was ubuntu warthog… So that’s what… 4.10? I think so.

    I put KDE Fedora on a MacBook Air circa 2013 iirc. It’s old heh. It runs well but it hates the new kernel. So after a lot of poking around to find a solution to the full hardware kernel panic lockups I found it was a problem with the wifi, as usual. You might get luckier than me since it’s only a couple chipsets they use that choke.

    That said even with that issue I just locked the kernel at 5.15 and it runs just fine. I started with 38 and I’ve upgraded every release until current without any issue.
