Personally I find AI art to look like “AI-art” if that makes sense. It has this generic look and feel to it. It might just be that people have to prompt it differently to get something that does not look generic.

In my view it can be art, but it is just other peoples art regurgitated by a machine with lots of filtering (to prevent nudity and other things that art historically often contain)

I think the biggest issue with LLMs / AI is that it is a loophole to use other peoples work and avoid copyright and licenses.

In the scenario in which your computer is forgotten or stolen, it would offer some comfort knowing that the data on the computer is not accessible.

We have a “policy” in our household that everything that has personal data should be encrypted. That is just for cases in which we lose the device or it gets stolen. That makes it a purely financial loss, and not as invasive / uncomfortable.

But on the other hand my household are not average users. So it might not work well for other people.

The game looks great! I really like that you don’t rely on GPS, because of privacy.

I somewhat disagree, 5€ is too low to get a decent wine imo. Buy a wine for 10-15€ and there is no longer any difference from the 500€ one.

The last point however is the key, and I agree wholeheartedly. If you can find one for 5€ then that is good enough

I live in Europe, but not in a EU country. Is there anything I can contribute with?

If ypu haven’t tried it, you should try Heroic Games Launcher. Makes it just as easy to launch GoG games on Linux as Steam games

A VR headset. have only gotten to play it a couple of times. my apartment is a bit too small.

Buuuut, in not too long I am moving to a bigger one. So then I can continue playing Half Life Alyx :D

I prefer GOG, due to being being DRM free.

On Linux I just use Heroic Games Launcher to install the GOG games and launch them. Its just as easy as proton on Steam

And it can be sorted alphabetically in all software. That’s a pretty big advantage when handling files on a computer

I am no Microsoft fanboy, but I get the impression people are a bit overly skeptical here.

I think this is fairly obvious. They have no further use for it, they can either let it rot or they can do the tiniest bit of effort and get some positive PR. It might also just be as simple as an initiative from some employees.
