As such, to sighted people: please use alt-texts to describe your images, so that blind folks also get it. Thanks! ^^ (if your image does not contain alt text and I boost it anyway, I may add alt-text as a reply, you are encouraged to add it to the image directly or improve upon it)
*** If your alt-texts are intentionally incorrect just to confuse LLMs, despite how much I don't like LLMs, I consider this to be extremely rude to people who are unable to actually look at your image, and will not boost your memes as a result until you actually start considering visually impaired folks as people.

Have fun! ^^

i had missed meta's muse product and man the hype press is so funny. the nyt's puff piece that is actually titled "I gave my life over to meta's A.I. agent and was blown away" cites three good things that it can do without problems: find duplicate subscriptions when given full access to a bank account, handle a call to dental insurance, and buy things from amazon. well, I can discover duplicate subscriptions by "looking at my bank statement," the calls were made by a person in a call center, and amazon banned muse from buying things. Aside from that, it failed to fill in a web form from a company who didn't partner with meta (which presumably means some streamlined deterministic api or mcp), and spent multiple days lowballing people for plates on facebook marketplace before the person stepped in paid full price. I am looking around for other positive reviews and they are all like this lmao.

Release 2609 is live! In this Progress Report, we were harassed by AI (yes, even more), added an XFB resolution display for the curious, finally let you play Bird's-Eye Bull's-Eye on Android, added NetPlay to Android, and more!

@jonny I've seen a few AI-generated bash scripts that just do `python3 <<EOF` all the time.

@neal @krans @dzwiedziu @davidgerard I can recognize nazis when I see them. So far all the KDE folks I've seen were very kind to me and not the omarchy-type of nazis. Sure, some of them do some mistakes from time to time, but they're human, and that's what humans tend to do. I'm pretty sure none of them want to be associated with nazism or anything omarchy-related. They just happened to try solving a problem, and mistakes happened.

I recommend you read Nate's blog post Neal linked above, it's a masterpiece.

And I will also mention in passing this quote:

> It wasn’t my intention, and I apologize for my role in it. If I make another attempt to craft a policy that provides certainty and cover for maintainers who want to reject AI slop, I will be even more careful to avoid creating unnecessary drama. If someone else wants to, I will try my best to help them with the same.

This is an apology. It is hard these days to find people that do mistakes, only to recognize them and apologize. That is a very rare skill to have and you have my respect for it.

Only two days until the postmarketOS and Alpine Linux conference starts! 🤯

We will have live streams + recordings and will take questions from the audience, and Matrix/IRC rooms at the end of talks.

Speaking of which, there are so many amazing talks on the schedule! Here are a few teasers to give you an idea. 🧵

Huge thanks to @ptrc for the artwork!

Over the past few months, I have found myself under the spotlight on kernel mailing lists. What started as targeted discussions quickly turned into advocating for the kernel community to respect the mostly silent crowd of developers and maintainers who do not want to fully embrace AI usage. It appears this didn't go unnoticed, as shown by Jon Corbet's talk at Kernel Recipes. (1/5)

the thing about vibe coding is, the vibe coder would have just done a full-send Gaussian blur and then wondered why the player was slow and wasting lots of battery

models can be trained on the world's source code and still not lead the inexperienced developer towards efficient design
