  • No, bottles is just a program that enables you to use wine much more comfortably.

    Wine isn’t super hard to use, but it’s annoying. So stuff like Bottles and Lutris exist, both basically do the same. They give you both a GUI and much easier accessable settings for the wine-prefixes. Those prefixes basically are just folders with the faked windows stuff in it.

    Lutris is made for games but can be used for programs too. Bottles is made out of the box for both games and programs, has a much more streamlined interface and workflow and lets you easily create new “bottles” (bottle is just the given name for a wine prefix) for each of your games / programs.

    Putting everything in their own bottle / prefix is really handy because it allows you to modify the prefix for each application without ruining it for another. If you need a specific version of a certain .dll file for one game but not for others, you can just install that .dll file in the specific bottle / prefix for that one specific game, and the other games just use their own bottles / prefixes with the default .dll for example.

    Very handy.

    Bottles is usually more recommended because it’s more streamlined… Also the dev of lutris seems quite toxic and isn’t good with making friends in the scene :D









  • First of all…bro…please use punctuation. This completely period-less wall of text was a nightmare to read lmao.

    An OS controlled completely by AI sounds nightmarish to be honest. The amount of wrong outputs your typical LLMs generate would steer your PC into oblivion i tell you.

    ASSISTED by AI is another thing though. There are already some tools out there that let you turn on some AI overlay that can help you figure out what you want to do. Even for the terminal.

    But wouldn’t want that on my PC tbh. First of all, it would make the electricity bill for using your PC pure hell… imagine you have to fire up your GPU to 100% usage everytime you want to do something…


  • Yeah…you’re basically talking gibberish, sorry to tell you.

    GPT4 doesn’t have to be reverse engineered, their software is nothing special and the open source programs available are more than competitive.

    The part that can’t be pirated is the model itself. The training data that was formed into the model. That you can’t pirate or reverse engineer. You could steal it by hacking them and leaking it. But it would be incredible inefficient to run because OpenAI basically didn’t give a single fuck about efficiency and you need really fcking high end GPUs to run that.

    So, to conclude.

    ChatGPT “software” is absolutely boring and the alternatives out there are both plenty and in many cases superior. The interesting part is the model, which can’t be reverseengineered and even if, can’t be run on most hardware.

    What you want is unrealistic and to be honest, completely unnecessary. We don’t want or need ChatGPT’s model. The open source models that already exist are in many cases better than GPT4; But they’re focused on specific tasks. Yes - there is no single model that can compete with GPT4 as is. But you can get yourself models for focused tasks and those “combined” definetly CAN compete with GPT4.

    And the open source softwares like oobabooga are so much more capable than GPT4’s stupid minimalistic webui…
