“Ventoy” responds to blobs concern on GitHub with ChatGPT nonsense from a newly-created Lemmy account after sole maintainer’s vacation to China - eviltoast

Ventoy is a tool to make a USB with multiple ISOs bootable, letting you select which ISO to use on boot. Another newly-created account claims to be the dev’s friend and translator and has received no contact from the maintainer.

    To play devil’s advocate, people often justify their biases with seemingly more reasonable stuff. “only good people should be trusted to breed” is eugenics even if someone made a funny movie about it.

      Very true, but we can’t just not criticise a government because the people involved checks notes “aren’t white.” What would make them above criticism? In my view the only possible answer is because (and it’s usually applied to children or the mentally disabled,) “they don’t understand what they’re doing.” In my personal opinion “Nonwhite people” are just as capable as “white people” of knowing what they’re doing, as they are not by default children or mentally disabled (though they do also have both categories, and those categories should get a little more leeway). They know spying is wrong whether they’re “chinese” or “american.”
