Trying to kill the Internet Archive would set just the precedent publishers want to kill community libraries.

I'd be surprised if the big publishers didn't try setting up their own pay-for-access libraries in a few years.

If it won't do more harm than good, nobody would try to do it.

I don't know about "good" but it works once in a while.

I've been saying, Microsoft hired Poettering to thank him for fucking up Linux so much with systemd.

I was going to mention Bookstack also.

There are ways to tell.

Pick the corporation of your choice and start there.

That would be far too helpful.

Same.

Check out Slackware. There is still a 32-bit version that is said to work on older Pentium-class machines.

Companies are trying to go back to the time when they got popped and told nobody.

That's one of the reasons why uploads to the Archive have torrents.

Now if they'd just fix the damn tracker..

Change up the kinds of malware they write.

Do people seriously not keep copies of their finished work anymore? They just post them and delete the local copy?

I thought that feature was built into it, but okay.

Folks have made it - I think ollama was name-checked specifically because it's on Github and in Homebrew and in some distros' package repositories (it's definitely in Arch's). I think some folks (at least) aren't talking about it because of the general hate-on folks have for LLMs these days.

That's how we got far right influencers, though. They took the naming and shaming and turn them into grifts.

Either the article's author has an editor who made the change, or the author knows what side his bread's buttered on.
