Spotted this guy after going through an old box of CDs.

I mean, at least it’s not an AI slop Tux on a clickbait article that says, “Forget Windows 11 - [INSERT OBSCURE, BORDLINE USELESS DISTRO THAT WON’T LAST TWO YEARS] cured my cancer”.

Like, I love Linux, and obscure distros have their place (I’d be cool with a review), but then there’s those horrible articles that mirror the overall devolution into soullessness that the internet has become.

On another note, those same sites with articles like, “Forget Windows 11 - Windows XP 2025 Classic Edition Ultimate is what we need”, with UI mockups where I’d rather cut off my right hand with a circle saw than use them if they were real.

slop is bad and that i always ignored, even if it came from humans or now ai. i like good ai.

Personally, I believe there barely is such a thing as “good AI” - I have a dislike of image and audio generation; while I avoid LLMs, I admit they have their occasional uses.
