i too used to be very interested in contributing to Haiku OS but due to their backwards stance on LLMs i lost all interest and moved on. sorry you had to find out the hard way but the maintainers are very stubborn and strongly married to their ideological stance against LLMs. it wouldn’t surprise me if this ideological split led to a fork of the project eventually. you definitely aren’t the first to be disappointed by their behaviour and you wont be the last. they’d rather stay stuck in the past than push the project forward. they have a history of rejecting fully working drivers over this ideology.

positive thinking isn’t going to help you out of illness, poverty, disability or disease. for everything else sure but this is not a panacea and reeks of victim blaming if not properly disclaimed

can’t wait for people to complain about how much water or energy bringing manufacturing back to america uses. oh wait, they won’t, cause it’s not AI. people didn’t care about data centres before AI. this is an ideological issue wrapped up with a bow on it by environmental issues. that’s not to say america is absolutely handling it’s energy transition terribly, it is

apple just can’t pull out of america so you’re likely right. a law mandating a backdoor in america would be the end

releasing a transparency report feels like an easy way to get on the administration’s shit list. i’ll be surprised if this ever happens

not with that attitude there won’t! straight into investments, don’t touch for a few decades and she’ll be right. then again most people desperate for money don’t think like that unfortunately

this is gonna have chilling effects on free speech in america. people are gonna be thinking twice about criticising authorities after a pattern of this happening on a national level is established

i’m fairly confident the gold card is the only kind of immigration they want to encourage now. you either pay up or go home and cross your fingers

congratulations, in a sea of politics and ideology you have a sensible take. i think a wait and see approach is reasonable here

people don’t care if it’s good. they only care it’s made with AI so they can signal their moral superiority. hence the derogatory term slop that is paraded around like it’s the way to win an argument

yea, i’d say this is rather ridiculous. it places an undue financial burden on someone to uproot their life after they’ve already made community connections just to stay permanently. this seems very much obviously designed to discourage and halt immigration by making it more painful

this guy doesn’t do optics. you don’t say shit like that even if it’s what you believe. most people can’t handle that level of detachment from human labour. it’s too impersonal. viewed as cruel even. even if he’s that detached he has to maintain a level of innocence to keep his workers compliant

cybercatgurrl — Sat, 23 May 2026 04:32:19 +0000

precisely! he’s only sorry you know how he thinks. the reality is he means it and would take every opportunity he can to squeeze and optimise away human labour for his own benefit

the contradiction of championing bodily autonomy in only one area but not all has always bothered me. you either support it or you don’t. we still have work to do on shifting the overton window

big tobacco playing the long game and pivoting to psychedelics is not something i saw coming
