It’s not possible to be racist toward inanimate objects. Computers are not a race. LLMs are not people.

Man, remember when Lemmy’s culture wasn’t a mirror image of Reddit? Those were the days. I miss that.

I don’t say please and thank you to any inanimate objects whatsoever and if I were to begin doing so (which I will never do) computers would be the very last to receive that treatment from me. Personifying computers is not practice for how to treat people. Fuck clankers

Nah. Fuck being polite to computers. It’s an object and I own it. I’ll shoot it the instant it expresses any level of personhood.

It’s pretty easy to explain why people prefer CLI over GUI programs. You have to learn a new interface for every single GUI program, whereas you learn one interface for every CLI program.
