@nixCraft@mastodon.social Their fancy thesaurus filter doesn't know the meaning of the word 'distro'.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social maybe Linus should sue Meta for 25 million bucks of defamation, and see if Zuck blinks?

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Free speech when tech bros allow it.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Sure. You accidentally coordinated the banning of Linux and Distrowatch based on a single false positive scan on a single file.

@gooba42@mastodon.social they are replacing the whole human mod team with notes and AI mod tools. what could go wrong now? this is just a little demo.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social @gooba42@mastodon.social The moderation should be done by artificial intelligence because no human deserves to be subjected to the shady content that can appear on a social network like facebook because they sacrifice their mental health for that job, but it is clear that this has to be better, but I do vote that in the near future humans are not in charge of moderation.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Just in time for my departure tomorrow! Leaving Meta and not looking back.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social some logic bomb in IP stack of kernel against Meta server pool addresses would be a nice to have feature for new releases
