"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

With Windows 11, every stupid thing you save on your computer, a copy automatically goes up into the cloud and fills your allotment and then they want you to buy more cloud space. I have a ton of Google cloud space not being used so just sent all that there and deleted the microsoft cloud stuff... and shut down the permissions for files to be sent there. They want $19.99 a month for more cloud space! I am not a huge fan of Google but my space there is less expensive also... I have a hard drive I am backing my files up to but I have had the sad experience of corrupted drives...

I need to learn more about Linux. I am not particularly tech knowledgeable... just what I have been able to pick up while working, I am in my 60s (did not have computers in HS, a small computer lab in college... I grew up analog).
