• Meet Sloppix — The New AI-Powered Linux Distro!

    Is AI actually useful in Linux — or is it just a gimmick?

    Sloppix is a brand new Linux distro with AI features baked right in — terminal assistance, automated sysadmin tasks, and more. So I put it to the test.

    But by the end, there’s a bigger question worth asking:
    AI is being bolted onto every tool, every distro, and every workflow in the Linux space right now — and a lot of it is AI slop dressed up as innovation. It’s worth stopping to think about what we’re actually gaining, and what we’re losing when we let AI do the thinking for us.

  • The Year of the Linux Desktop (Extended Directors Cut)

    The Year of the Linux Desktop… A time where Linux has WON. As the dominant operating system, it’s completely extinguished its competitors. But is that a good thing?

    In this video, Jay presents a special “extended edition” of the channel’s 2023 April Fools joke – complete with some restored scenes, bloopers, and more!

  • The Year of the Linux Desktop: The Movie (Short Film)

    “The Year of the Linux Desktop: The Movie” is a short film made by Jay LaCroix that’s best described as a combination of “Mr. Robot meets Orphan Black”, with a tone modeled after 90’s hacker flicks. In this super-short mini-movie, Jay (playing a parody of himself) creates a video to commemorate the Linux community finally achieving the “Year of the Linux Desktop”, only to find out that Linux dominating “every computing device on the planet” may not be as great as it seems.

    Note: Although this video was originally created for April Fools 2023, it’s very much a legitimate and entertaining short film that you won’t want to miss!
