  • Just a thought, perhaps instead of considering the mental and educational state of the people without power to significantly affect this state, we should focus on the people who have power.

    For example, why don’t LLM providers explicitly and loudly state, or require acknowledgement, that their products are just imitating human thought and make significant mistakes regularly, and therefore should be used with plenty of caution?

    It’s a rhetorical question, we know why, and I think we should focus on that, not on its effects. It’s also much cheaper and easier to do than refill years of quality education in individuals heads.


  • Right but think about it. Any ports open on the host are opened by processes running on the host. If a process on the host wants to open 443, the host OS would ask for root. Now think about the VM from the point of view of the host. It’s just another running process. If it tries to open 443 - it’s gotta have root or it will fail. It doesn’t matter what permissions the process inside the VM has. In fact the host doesn’t even know about that process. To the host, the VM process wants to open protected port.







  • Sure but according to the AnLinux project docs you can’t really run everything Debian can. For example it says it can’t run some DEs. For me this isn’t about whether Termux can do things a Debian VM can. I know it can. It’s about can Termux do everything a Debian VM can and as far as I know, it cannot.

    And then there’s the work the Termux team has to do to get programs to work on Android. With a Debian VM, there’s no additional work needed. Whatever the Debian team packages would just work.
