2025-10-12 03:08:16 UTC

- reply

@nprofile…fv4z I can't speak for other fields (like programming languages), but in the context of "read man pages back to the user in a certain way".
The human part would be mostly me, I train it by updating the official documentation, which updates in a few minutes. After about 6 months of that the answers are pretty good. I don't think using a general one like chatgpt is a good idea.
But the real benefit is it doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be better than reddit and forum answers and that's been net better.
We for sure lost something though.

@nprofile…d82u @nprofile…le4r This would take about 20 minutes with our image template.
Agree that someone should do one, we just don't have the spoons. I bet someone from the aurora team would help out, should be a matter of adding the packages and turning the session on?

M2 from the #ublue dev team picked up his own #framework 13 to use for #bluefin development.
We've got the screen's color profile included and #gnome just did the right thing and set to 200% on the new 2.8k screen. Only config that had to be setup manually was the fingerprint reader, so that one's next.
