Not simple libs, an entire trust chain from boot to running app that is supposed to improve security and integrity. It also happens to have the side effect of making the entire chain dependent on Google, which I’m sure Google is totally not happy about you know.
The user explained what exactly went wrong later on. The AI gave a list of instructions as steps, and one of the steps was deleting a specific Node.js folder on that D:\ drive. The user didn’t want to follow the steps and just said “do everything for me” which the AI prompted for confirmation and received. The AI then indeed ran commands freely, with the same privilege as the user, however this being an AI the commands were broken and simply deleted the root of the drive rather than just one folder.
So yes, technically the AI didn’t simply delete the drive - it asked for confirmation first. But also yes, the AI did make a dumb mistake.
There are many instances that accept all content (for better or for worse).
The biggest issue is simply not enough people watching. But content restrictions are a thousand times more aggressive on YouTube vs PeerTube
Confiscated for having GrapheneOS? What?

I hate to say it, but it’s literally PewDiePie recording a video and showing young gaming fans Linux and calling it “cool”. That’s it. The guy’s got 110M subscribers.
systemd was a solution in search of a problem
Systemd solved lots of problems for me and made things easier so you know… I guess they succeeded.
The literal Science Memes community was mocking higher education and the thread was full of people trying to convince others to never go to college. It’s bizarre how strong the anti-education sentiment is around here.
Ramping up or down degrades your fans and pumps faster than keeping them at a low constant RPM, so yes, idle beats shutting down.
What Raspberry Pi is booting with SecureBoot and default keys? Give me a break.
So this is an exaggerated non-issue that is phrased as if it was the end of Linux? Crazy, this never happened before! See you all next week when Linux is doomed again.
Why not?
If I don’t know what your code is doing, and I can’t modify it, I don’t want it. Are you rendering a cube? Are you mining crypto on my machine? And why would I need GPU-rendering? Webpages should be text, images and hierarchy.
It’s already executing code on your CPU unless you run noscript or similar…
That’s true! Now guess what extension I’m using
Are there other features you’ve turned off?
You bet. Some I tolerate not disabled, but spoofed or containerised per site.
Ah, WebGPU, one of the “features” I disable anyway because its a major fingerprinting data point and no website is got any business running code on my GPU
Oooof
