While the US hunts for the AGI moonshots, China is building usable and easy-to-train AI models. Perhaps we should consider need and usability before investing $7 billion in the next generation of environmentally harmful chatbots.

You're on the right track. But there's a huge capability gap here. Lumo and Leo work fine for basic chat, but they're nowhere near frontier models for complex tasks like coding or analysis. You end up trading a lot of functionality for privacy promises.
The opportunity is open source models you can verify and run yourself. Same privacy benefits, but you control the entire stack. Companies are already hosting these models where you can see the actual training data and model weights.
Regulation won't fix surveillance capitalism. It typically helps incumbents who can afford compliance costs while crushing smaller alternatives.
The solution is supporting companies building transparent, verifiable AI infrastructure. Not perfect privacy promises.

The good thing about open source is that there's an endless amount of stuff to try, explore, and study. It's wonderful.
The bad thing about open source is that as soon as you stop trying, exploring, or studying something, another thing will come along right away. And another. And another...
And not always in a series.

Hello Julia
We do a lot of #linux installations in Zurich, Switzerland, also offer support for linux and #opensource software.
We have mostly 'non nerd' customers aged from 10 to over 90, who are happy working with linux.
Our favourite distribution is @MXLinux
It is based on #debian for security and stability and has a lot of marvellous GUI tools enabling people to easily adapt many things without using a terminal.
Just published a comprehensive FreeBSD Cheat Sheet for Linux Admins!
Covers all the essentials:
- Hardware info (pciconf → lspci)
- Network commands (sockstat is amazing!)
- Disk management & ZFS operations
- Service management differences
- Package management across systems
Perfect for Linux admins diving into FreeBSD or anyone working across both systems. Includes 100+ command comparisons and real-world examples.
