    They’re covering their arses, which is a good call. I wouldn’t put it above the big corporations to use the fact that their models are trained on stolen data and then engage in spurious lawsuits against small projects and companies for infringing on their copyrights. That might be their best bet once this AI BS dies down.

      Are you talking about the BS surrounding regulations (or lack thereof) or the general hype?

      Personally, I hope the hype does die down and isn’t crammed into every single digital product or otherwise. Regulations on how these models are trained will be interesting and probably will shape a new generation of IP law.

    It’s a little snarky, and as such, gives off an unprofessional vibe, but I agree with the core message fully.

      Wait, there’s a distro for macs? I need one of those.

      Last I looked months ago, all I remember seeing was “you can load linux, but it’s hard and you might lose the mac forever.”

        I think it’s still pretty experimental. There have almost always been linux distros for macs, I had it installed on a colorful powerpc imac back in the day.

        I used it as an almost daily driver from April 2024 through June of this year. Only reason I gave up was I had to keep whitelisting updates and changes in our siem because it started freaking out about the unknown hardware when I’d get on the network at a client site. Otherwise a solid bit of work.

          Would ‘it’ be Asahi? I’ll check it out. I’m not quite sure what my needs are yet; I have a gifted work laptop that needs some purpose other than the paperweight it is now, but Asahi might do it.

            Yes, asahi on a 8Gb/256 Mac book air. I gave it like 80Gb during setup and that was plenty. At the time microphone, display port and fingerprint didn’t work, but I think even the mic works now. Had to fight with a little to get display link (apple’s video out is special) so it would play nice on some docks, besides that battery was solid, and it just worked.
