Yep, it is me.

This is the most tsoding thing possible.

I wouldn't recommend Ubuntu, though.

One of the biggest faults of Linux is we don't have an easy, user friendly, idiot proof distro for normies, but Ubuntu is just broken corporate slop.

When I was wearing the various "save users from themselves" hats in my previous life, Ubuntu users were 100% the bane of my existence... since they were all server customers, the ones that took my advice and let me help them switch over to Debian suddenly stopped being frequent footgun fliers, no matter what their original issue was.

Ubuntu, to me, is simply Debian that has been aggressively turned into enterprise slop.

Shame this is written in Python, looks very interesting, but I'm no expert in this field.

If there is anything here worth using, it's entirely possible that the llama.cpp crew can save it from vanishing into obscurity.

I have not read this for like 20 years.

It's still as good and as absolutely batshit as I remember.

A lot of commenters here talk about how its "problematic" or "squick", but that's mostly the point: this isn't a story about the Singularity, even though the PI is a main character in the cast, instead, it is a story about what happens to morality if death is no longer achievable from the perspective of a character that takes it to very extreme.

If you're uncomfortable with the story, fundamentally, you're uncomfortable with what humans can do/could do/have done with insufficient moral constructs in place. Which... ultimately is the correct response, I guess? The story doesn't hold any punches, it doesn't hold your hand, how you feel about after you finish it is up to you.
