    @Khrys Ready to quit ?
    It depends ... what is the degree of cleaness that we consider ?

    I may be wrong, but isn't the linux kernel project already accepting contributions made with the use of AI-generated code ?

    If this is the case, then there is no such GNU/Linux AI-free distribution anymore.

    Edit: to avoid confusion, that would be something I regret. But would I have the strength to resist it ? I don't know.

    AFAIK GNU doesn't, got a source?

      @ParadeGrotesque @breizh @Khrys Anyway: you have your AI-Free kernel. Nice. Then all the softwares that will run on this kernel, ranging from the shell to the web browser have to be AI-free 😬

      @shaft

      BSD user land (shell, utilities, etc.) is part of the distribution, and is often created and maintained by the same developers as the kernel.

      So no AI there either.

      Which means BSDs, in general, are more consistent and have slightly lighter utilities than Linux.

      For example: ksh is usually a version of pdksh, and is maintained by several developers from all 3 major BSDs (if I remember well).

        Time to switch to BSD ? Well, I don't know their position.

        @breizh re: Linux, thank you for providing the missing link to docs.kernel.org.

        There are multiple BSD distros.

        For FreeBSD, the quoted post might help.

          Since I read that systemd is going to include slop, a lot of them is concern

          @dallo @Khrys I just saw elementary OS on the list, but they do use systemD so we will see what happens. If the Wayland session can be refined a bit more I could run it, but I do miss having an actual desktop with icons.

              GNU Guix has its own init system, so wouldn't be immediately scuppered by the contrary position of systemd.

                    @dallo @Khrys That ship sailed a long time ago. Systemd has always been slop. To the point of actually proposing changes to the kernel command line to hack around bugs in systemd rather than fix them, which earned quite the colorful response from Linus.

                    But that's what is widely used so ... well, whatever. I figure if that's how you be you may as well use AI. Do the JIRA shuffle on fast forward.

                        I'm familiar with the contributions to the kernel Linux, but the GNU utilities I don't believe is in the same situation.
