So don't run stable on a desktop? If you want a bleeding edge rolling release, that's what sid is for.

Sure, in the same way that some people only watch movies once, or read books once.
Speaking for myself, I've found only a small handful of games are worth my replay time, and most of them are Mass Effect...
That's roughly right, but that doesn't make him in any meaningful way "good". Of course I also don't think anyone who decided to drop the bombs on Japan was a "good guy". But maybe that's why I'm not a pure utilitarian.
Absolutely not, unless you adhere to pure utilitarianism. Veidt kills untold numbers of innocent people on a self-imposed quest to do what he believes will save humanity. He was a straight up megalomaniac and the only upside is that his murderous actions eventually lead to peace.
So laziness. Got it.
(They could easily move to an ipc mechanism that doesn't require binding a port on a network interface but that'd require time and effort and why bother when the goal is to ship something fast and cheap while the AI hype is strong)
Sounds like a fun way to directly mess with their model though.
Wait... why the heck does it need to open a network port?
Yes! God this show is underrated. They got bit by the "oh look it's another Mad Men" stamp in season 1, but then the show pivots in season 2/3 and becomes something unique and special. And then I spent season 4 with a tissue box nearby. One of my favourite shows of all time.
Better Call Saul is also spectacular. In fact, I might go so far as to claim it's better than BB...
If somebody wanted to draw animated kiddie porn they could still do that. How far would you go until you ban crayons
It's genuinely impressive how completely you missed my point.
How about another analogy: US federal law allows people to own individual firearms, but not grenades.
But they're both things that kill people, right? Why would they be treated differently?
Hint: it's about scale.
The same is true of pipe bombs. But anyone can make a pipe bomb. Genie is out of the bottle, right? So why are there laws regulating manufacture and ownership of them? Hmm...
And how many times have you made this comment, only to have it pointed out that there is a big fucking difference between a human manually creating fake images via Photoshop at human speed using human skills, versus automating the process so it can be done en masse at the push of a button?
Because that's a really big fucking difference.
Think: musket versus gatling gun. Yeah, they both shoot bullets, but that's about where the similarity ends.
Is the genie out of the bottle at this point? Probably.
But to claim this doesn't represent a massive shift because Photoshop? Sorry but that's at best naive, and it's starting to get exhausting seeing this "argument" trotted out repeatedly by AI apologists.
For the target users of Debian stable? No.
Debian stable is for servers or other applications where security and predictability are paramount. For that application I absolutely do not want a lot package churn. Quite the opposite.
Meanwhile Sid provides a rolling release experience that in practice is every bit as stable as any other rolling release distro.
And if I have something running stable and I really need to pull in the latest of something, I can always mix and match.
What makes Debian unique is that it offers a spectrum of options for different use cases and then lets me choose.
If you don't want that, fine, don't use Debian. But for a lot of us, we choose Debian because of how it's managed, not in spite of it.
