I also think it’s AI, the text has that weird “too neat to be done by hand, too loose to be typed” look to it. Not a lot of obvious flaws in the actual drawing, although the coloring between the legs isn’t right in a way that I’d think a human would catch.

It doesn’t have to be a big baroque thing. When there’s a dotfile I configure regularly, I move it to a Git repo and use stow to put it “back” into place with a symlink. On new machines, it isn’t long before I try something that doesn’t work or see the default shell prompt and go “oh yeah, I want my dotfiles”, check out the repo, run a script that initializes a few things (some stuff is machine-specific so the script makes files for that stuff with helpful comments for me to remember the differences between login shells or whatever) and then I’m off to the races.

Not even femboys. Too much boy, not enough fem. I guess it does start getting fuzzy in the same places gender does, you could get me in a “checkmate, libs” gotcha by asking if I’m attracted to a trans man whose egg only cracked an hour ago.

Not me, can’t even begin to feel how people find men attractive. But I’m glad they do for my own sake.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I’m not sure what the worst case scenario is… like, is some company going to get rich off of their proprietary cp and sudo implementation that they forked off of an open one?

If you go even further right than Charlie Kirk, they end up flipping from “yay Israel, help bring about the Book of Revelations and end the world” to “boo Israel, we hate Jews”, so as hard as it may be to believe, there is actually room for him to get hated from his right.

It’s worse, a single infinite loop will warm up the computer a bit, this program starts two copies of itself, each of which starts two copies of itself… unless you’ve set some limits on things the computer’s going to be locked up within seconds.

I think you’re thinking of SerenityOS (although it isn’t actually a Linux):

It’s the same rule, “fair use”. Copyright isn’t absolute, it needs to strike a balance between “give creators control of their thing” but also “people deserve to participate in our collective culture.”

Making a one-off drawing of a character and not trying to make money off of it likely checks the fair use boxes (it’s an explicitly fuzzy system, so a trial would be needed to say for sure if it’s fair use or not). Whether the training set for a generative AI system is fair use or not is still an open question, but many feel that it can’t be, as it’s operating on a massive scale (basically every image ever created by humanity) and has the potential to eliminate the entire industry of humans selling the art they create, which copyright is supposed to protect. Ghibli isn’t going to be harmed by someone drawing a picture of their characters for a meme. It could be harmed by another company making money off of mass production of knockoffs of their style which were created with thousands of unauthorized copies of their direct artwork.
