Thou speaketh true.

However, I thought the summary was both more in spirt of the common modern interpretation of the law and was easier for people to grasp. It also had some nice context linked in the summary which some might fund useful.

This is the actual text of the first amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Currently, I think the first amendment is being attacked because if that “Congress shall make no law…” part. Which goes against the spirit of the law and how it has been interpreted for most of US history. However, I’m not a lawyer.

The other side is in the majority, powerless to stop it legally.

This civil servant is laughing off their constituent’s first amendment rights.

The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

Its more than mildly infuriating, it’s unconstitutional.

I sure hope nobody recommends me to use a free and open source operating system that never has issues like this over this proprietary OS that I’m used too and have been paying licensing fees for since I started using computers.

I think I this is probably true for ideas and concepts as well

I am an advocate for only using FOSS apps.

Droid-ify is a decent client for F-droid.

Obtainium is also great.

Besides the official jellyfin app, there is also JellyBook

Jellyfin actually works for ebooks too. It does all the things you specified and more.

I’ve actually worked professionally in the field for a couple of years since it was interesting to me originally. I’ve built RAG architecture backends for self hosted FOSS LLMs, i’ve fine tuned LLMs with new data, And I’ve even took the opposite approach where I embraced the hallucinations as I thought it could be used for more creative tasks. (I think this area still warrants research). I also enjoy TTS and STT use cases and have FOSS models for those on most of my devices.

I’ll admit that the term AI is extremly vauge. It’s like saying you study medicine, it’s a big field. But I keep coming to the conclusion that LLMs and predictive generative models in general simply do not work for the use cases that it’s being marketed for to consumers, CEOs, and Governments alike.

This " AI race" happened because Deepseek was able to create a model that was more or less equivalent to OpenAI and Anthropic models. It should have been seen as a race between proprietary and open source since deep seek is one of the more open models at that performance level. But it became this weird nationalist talking point on both countries instead.

There are a lot of things the US is actually in a race with China in. Many of which are things that would have immediate impact. Like renewable energy, international respect, healthcare advances, military sufficiency, human rights, food supplies, and afordible housing, just to name a few.

The promise of AI is that it can somehow help in the above categories eventually, and that’s cool. But we don’t need AI to make improvements to them right now.

I think AI is a giant distraction, while the the talk of nationalistic races is just being used for investor buy in.

The race to have the magic box that tells you lies that you want to hear while also consuming incredible amounts of resources…why is this a race again?

Also probably do that stretchy leg thing and forget to put it down shortly afterwards.

This is just wrong. All modern hardware will work on an equally modern kernel.

However when it comes to games, some competitive multiplayer games that require kernel level rootkits might not run on Linux if the developers think gaming on Linux is cheating.

I always suggest cross referencing protondb with you game inventory to see if you would have any issues

I’d rather buy a high end noctua fan for my CPU then spend $30 on a windows license. Although I have bought those in the past.

Maybe the real curency was the debt we found along the way?
