My point was, and remains, that if you’re gonna comment on this dude’s cool thing he made, maybe try not to be a pedantic asshat when the aforementioned dude who created the cool thing essentially calls it Loctite instead of thread locker.

It sticks to his phone via a 3rd party magsafe adapter, presumably like the one I have on my phone to mount a popsocket and shit
Magsafe is the marketing term for a specific layout and design of magnets for a specific purpose that is crucial to the function of the cool AF thing OP made, which you didn’t bother mentioning at all…
That’s not either scale being intuitive or unintuitive, that’s your familiarity with one over the other.
I got curious so I did some research on the definitions and why everything is this way. It looks like they originally picked the coldest thing they had (brine, possibly inspired by the coldest weather), the freezing point of water, human body temperature, and the boiling point of water. It was supposed to be brine at 0, water freezing at 30, the human body at 90, and water boiling at 240. Fahrenheit then recalibrated his scale slightly to make his math (and thermometer design and production) easier, and also because he noticed water actually boiled at 212 by his newly modified scale.
Looking at it like that work the context of what they had at the time and what they were trying to do, it makes a lot of sense.

Assuming this is actually representative of the difference, it was definitely a pair of centipedes.
I’m not surprised in the least that at a minimum it’s more complicated than the meme suggests, and now I’ve learned far more about centipedes than I ever wanted to. Thanks!
Ok now I’m curious about what the fuck the two centipedes I found in my basement that I thought were fucking were actually doing. They sure looked like they were fucking.
And they told you no, and you went online to write an angry screed about the wrong organization (the organization that pays GNU’s bills btw)?
Maybe go fix the problems they pointed out to you and then remove any code you didn’t personally write or have appropriate permission to use and resubmit it. If you really want to work with them, you need to meet them where they are. They’ve almost certainly been doing this longer than you’ve been alive (same for me tbf, I’m not that old), and while they’re not perfect they write good code.
Maybe it doesn’t need to be.
I’m not going to say AI is completely useless, because it’s objectively not. I’ve heard it’s incredibly helpful in pharmaceutical development and science and shit like that.
LLMs are fancy autocomplete. They guess the most likely next word, based on some fancy-ass math I can’t claim to attempt to understand. They don’t understand the code, or anything really. It’s all math and weighted probabilities internally. How can something that doesn’t understand what it’s actually saying write good, usable, actually correct code all of the time? Sometimes it gets lucky and you get a working snippet, or it rips off someone else’s code (possibly verbatim), and sometimes it just generates nonsense.
I’ve had the last option happen to me personally. I asked it to generate a script in Home Assistant (fantastic software by the way) to dim my lights automatically over half an hour. It worked, sometimes, but the math that actually stepped the light down in brightness wasn’t correct and the script failed intermittently.
Maybe it can help write boilerplate, but realistically there will be additional errors inserted and it will require an actual living breathing human to fix.
This is also entirely beside the point that I think you’re mixing up the FSF and GNU project. They’re related but not actually the same. The FSF is fundraisers and lawyers, GNU writes code. That might be why FSF never responded, though to be perfectly honest given what you’ve said, GNU will likely want nothing to do with it if it’s tainted with AI-generated code. That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen (literally) for no benefit from their perspective.
What exactly do you think the FSF is going to do? Their focus is on lobbying and legal action afaik.
Virtual Machine Manager is what you’re looking for I think
