People just need to install lubuntu or some Linux distribution on their pc. Tech companies for years have forced consumer upgrades for average pc users when it wasn’t necessary.

I have a photo company in my town that still ruins dos off of windows 95 and has internet for email on windows 2000s for their point of sale machines is all dos. Even dot matrix printers. I was born in 1984 and remember this. Shows you don’t need the latest tech

I installed Lubuntu on my Microsoft Surface 2 and my custom PC from 2014 that couldn’t get upgraded to windows 11 due to lack of a tpm chip. We don’t need better hardware, we need better operating systems. We need more Linux.

up to 4 could be 1 to be honest. It’s volunteer and this is a non entity. Therefore the responsibility falls on the person that’s hosting the podcast to work within the framework of the groups mission. I can work on various topics that will be broad enough and the host/guest need to treat people fairly. There could be a rotation of hosts too as well. So this would limit burnout. And no we will not be accepting any funds whatsoever as we’re a decentralized group.

I meant seeking not hiring this is strictly volunteer my mistake

The problem with llms is that we’re basically going to a large library with books that are small and have a lot of info and we’re asking a calculator to do research for us which has a lot probability of accuracy.

I switched to Mac in 2022 because I was so pissed off that Windows was forcing me to upgrade my hardware to upgrade to windows 11. But this is a mess. At least Apple doesn’t force AI down your throat

I tried Bluesky for while but honestly I like Mastadon and Lemmy better. I’m also testing LOOPS (tiktok replacement) which is from the same creator as Pixelfed. There’s something comforting using decentralized platforms that are safe from Government and Corporate intervention
