However, we currently don’t whether LLM-generated code is libre software yet. Software Freedom Conservancy currently thinks otherwise, the Free Software Foundation is working on it with their lawyers. Whatever the outcome, it seems there will be a huge impact on licensing and perhaps new threats from proprietary software companies.

Or GNU Boot? 👀

Copying is not theft: stealing a thing leaves one less left while copying makes one thing more, that’s what copy is for. Example?

I if steal your bicycle, you have to take the bus. But if I just copy it, there’s one for each of us.

No more.

Sci-hub exists.

I’m like this post but I use GNU Guix System instead of Gentoo and GNU Boot instead of the old fully free Libreboot (and I have my own appartment lol).

Some computers do not require having the ME firmware installed. Usually, these are computers supported by a 100% free BIOS replacement such as GNU Boot (see the compatible models on the website). Libreboot was fully free in the past but it’s not true anymore since it does now support computers needing the ME working (at least for computer initialization) but neutered so that most of it can’t operate. However, you can’t be sure whether a neutered ME is harmful or not since we don’t know what it can really do as the initialization source code is not known.

GNU Guix System!

Yeah well, it was convenient to dismiss radical free software ideas by telling everyone it’s obsolete 🙄 thus calling that “traditional”

on the main CPU 🙃*

grep ~/.bash_history

There are intermediary steps, e.g. GNU Guix System 🫣
