That’s what my NetBook had, back when those were The Thing To Have :)

Me, a Debian Enjoyer but Ubuntu Hater: 👀

Sometimes, designing systems for non-technical people requires a little compromise on the licensing extremism that is very baked into FOSS culture.

It is why most Linux folks are stoked that Linux can play Windows games reliably — it means that millions of Windows lifers are getting exposed to Arch Linux for the first time. Sure, Steam is proprietary, and so are Nvidia drivers, but nobody decides to start with Linux and stay there (they do, but, I am talking single digit numbers vs the billions using Windows). Everyone has to start somewhere.

That said, big frown on Ubuntu. I would personally prefer something like Debian that has fewer major update increments, or an immutable Arch setup.

This may as well be porn to me.

Tux having fingers kinda creeps me out.

To be fair, ‘artificial’ literally just means ‘made through skill,’ in opposition to natural, meaning ‘occurs as-is.’ I agree with you that there is a better word out there than ‘artificial’ for these spicy autocorrects.

I am so sad that people I know (not you, OP) are using the phrase ‘vibe coding’ seriously now, like it’s some new discipline of coding. It’s a facetious term! The joke is that it’s not real coding! Stop!!!
