  • Why are they requiring an additional two months? If their website is broken send them an email, block the payment, screenshot the broken website. They could try to enforce that but the likely wouldn’t stand a chance. EU law says it can’t be more difficult to cancel a subscription than it was to begin one.

    I think the point around them wanting a couple more months is a key point though. Why are they expecting that?

    Most of them seemed to be giving it a fair go but Linus himself seemed to be treating it more like a Cheap Car Challenge from Top Gear. He was cracking (bad) jokes about “just Linux things” before he’d even started and he gave up pretty much straight away. The problems he was having with Discord seemed more like Discord issues than Linux issues.

    I game on Linux without issue. Literally 95% of games just work without issue. Deathloop never ran well and Routine (a UE game) for some reason kept want to install and uninstall a package each time I ran it (but it played fine). I don’t think I’ve found another game that doesn’t play and I recently bought ARC Raiders.




  • They could probably never actually do this. It seems that a trained model is some big mysterious thing that nobody really understands. They take some maths that’s so complicated barely anyone can understand it, feed it all the data they can possibly lay their hands on, then pump insane amounts of computational power through it. It’s the modern day equivalent of Frankenstein’s monster.
