    Would you look at the time! Tux o’clock already!

    Yeah but Linux isn’t viable for me because [very obscure bug that was fixed in 2014]

    i can backup my home computer, reinstall the entire OS, all apps, restore all the data, faster than a single Windows Update takes on my work machine

  Their computer is installing updates, sure they have a few minutes.

  Our Linus, who art from Finland, Hallowed be thy kernel.

        Linux users in their natural habitat, obscure online forums.

        Observe how they nitpick minor technicalities between themselves, a hallmark sign of affection among their kind.

  If I don’t find an anti-AI kernel fork I might be moving to NetBSD soon. That sucks, I hate moving to a new OS.

    Linus has always prioritized results over ideological purity. Which is why Linux runs the world whereas BSD is still just a niche project.

    source

    • FiniteBanjo@feddit.online ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Clearly he doesn’t care about results because he slop coded with antigravity rather than reading documentation for a python side-project. I imagine his younger self would be cussing his older self out for shipping things he literally doesn’t understand.

      The reason for his actions are much simpler: he got paid. He gets paid from the linux foundation which receives a lump sum from AI companies. In 2024 Linus said AI was just Hype, but then the foundation received millions in funds from the AI companies.

        I’m no vibecoder but between 2024 and now, LLMs also got much better. It might not have been the money that changed his mind.

      I’m not sure I’d call permissive licensing “ideological purity” compared to copyleft.

      Frankly, I think BSD loses because corporations are legally allowed to take and never give back.

    • klankin@piefed.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      That and BSD was almost BSD™ by AT&T™.

      Lost all its momentum at probably its most valuable growth opportunity to a single dev.

      source

      • FiniteBanjo@feddit.online ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        A lot of people very recently are already jumping ship from Linux so it appears a new most valuable growth alternative has arrived.

      OUCH

  Didn’t he jump on the AI bandwagon?

  source

  • kuerbiskernoel@feddit.org ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    No, he said AI may be used for assistance in kernel commits, but the same code quality and comprehensibility as before AI is required.

    He cares about the output, not it you got some code snippet from ai or stackoverflow.

      That’s a “yes, but”, not a “no”.
