By not mentioning the Activity Pub protocol or FOSS (and then going off on GNU shit with direct quotes from Richard Stallman) even once, this is straining the bounds of possibility.

Came here to say exactly this ^.

OpenAI is called that for a reason. They absolutely were a non-profit research org initially, so would have been eligible for research grants, etc. They would probably have gotten a pass on using the torrents too, for the same reason.

They went to a private for-profit model later after they built their AI's and wanted to start selling them as a service. How the hell all of that plays out as the company they are now is anyone's guess.

where Spez edited comments to make the sub seem to be inciting violence, so he had an excuse to ban it

Not what happened. Spez, fuckwit though he is, actually managed to do a halfway decent trolling there.

A bunch of t_d people were slagging him off and insulting him in their comments. Spez got drunk as shit one night and edited their comments, swapping his name with Trump's so that it made them look like a bunch of anti-trumpers. Much gnashing of teeth ensued.

Absolutely shouldn't have done it, especially as CEO of Reddit FFS, but definitely funny as shit.

Don't get me wrong, it's absolutely a mark against him, but he didn't get them banned. They thouroughly got themselves banned on their own.

No, that was the IRA and that's all in the past, thank you very much.

Lol, I know what you mean.

Isn't it fucked up how we all say that linux doesn't have viruses, and yet how many times have you ever seen an install of Mint or Ubuntu that didn't have "Tree" or "Awk" just sitting there waiting to ruin your whole day.

I swear to God Canonical have some things to answer for.

Well, technically it teaches you how to optimize your system.

That said, the optimizations are really effective.

All good points.

That's why I love communities like these, there are always people willing to expound upon other's solutions with solid additional information.

It's what makes forums like these such goldmines of information when you're first cutting your teeth learning new things.

Upvoted.

It's great, isn't it? As a side bonus, the tutorial modules on system optimization commands are just great. Check how much less RAM and CPU footprint your system's using now that you've run the tutorials. It's almost like nothing's going on in the background at all.

This is the reason that BASH will always be better than Powershell, imho.
