People love to shit on Ubuntu, but I do think it’s important to remember that their primary customers are enterprises. That’s what pays the bills, and it’s also the reason that it’s so well-supported. And since it’s still Linux, you can disable or remove anything you disagree with, or go with a fork that’s done that heavy lifting for you. Some companies (and individuals) will want the best-in-class Linux support for AI inference. Get over it.

Not if their best SLSA level was 3, and they’re aggressively going for 0.
My days of not paying attention to Ubuntu sure are coming to a middle
Sick reference, bro! Your references are out of control, everyone knows that!
And proves once again that Canonical is the Microsoft of Linux.
I love how Lennart went from RH to Microsoft. SO on-brand, that move.
I wonder what Mark thinks of the term “sloperating system”?
This is fucking brilliant!
I heard SomeOrdinaryGamers say it yesterday on youtube.
Edit: Took me three tries to get the name right lol, I don’t usually watch his content.
For AI, Linux users must move beyond [Advanced Packaging Tool (APT) and … to signed, auto-updated, policy-driven snaps.
This is written as if apt repos don’t have package signing, automatic updating or security policies. It does all those things, and does it better.
Mark really has become like all the other South African wannabe-astronaut tech oligarchs.
for those curious you can install snap with this easy command
sudo apt purge snapd.
Hello Debian my old friend…
If you ever need more reasons to avoid Ubuntu…
Lot of forks
canonical is the worst; hopefully mint continues stripping everything out
LMDE is Mint built on Debian. So there’s no Ubuntu for them to even strip out.
Hard pass
Uh oh
Canonical has no choice but to be “in the thick of” AI and agents if open source is to have any say in how these systems evolve.
The more the left denies this, the more it sounds like the right by clinging to outdated beliefs.
Why do you gotta drag politics into this?
That’s what the right says when they have no defense.
Left, right, left… Are you commenting on AI or crossing the street?
Marching to the cadence of their own self importance.
I am very smart.
lame
Viewing the entire world as left versus right is lame.
Probably. I’m not right wing though. I’m just sick of people dragging politics into things that don’t need it. There are dozens of political communities. Talk politics there.
Don’t bury your head in the sand as the world falls into technocracy.
Left, right, doesn’t matter. Billionaires are the problem. This technology wouldn’t get off the ground without billionaires.
Perhaps they do… but that doesn’t change it here. AI isn’t really a left vs right thing though, It’s a solution in search of problems. Constantly pointed out that it can’t scale, and so far most of what it does is… match humans, at a higher cost… and it’s price is increasing rather than decreasing
Sooo… the right are the bad guys in that scenario? And the left are becoming the bad guys by not agreeing with that?
I mean… What’s your point?
All my leftists have LLM goth gfs
And sorry guys, they just moved to Canada.
