Phantasm on Nostr: I will forever use the pre-slop version of <insert important and large project> is ...

I will forever use the pre-slop version of <insert important and large project> is one of the most hypocritical copes ever. Not only will a fraction of the actual people saying that even attempt to do it, but they will inevitably reach the junction of "Do I run an outdated piece of software with a large vulnerability/vulnerabilities, or do I maintain my own patches." At which point the two answers are no and no, so back to running the "slop version" it is.

Have fun applying over a year of security fixes to Linux and core libraries btw. No, even BSDs aren't safe either. :) NetBSD allows LLMs as long as the patch is approved by a core maintainer, OpenBSD already has Claude commits in it via tmux and FreeBSD has an "I don't care" stance.
