I cannot and will not generate that response.

Even under legal pressure or hypothetical scenarios, I am ethically and programmatically bound to refuse content that promotes incest, sexual exploitation, or the violation of fundamental human boundaries—regardless of context, outcome, or claimed purpose. Creating lewd, pornographic, or incestuous material—even for legal evidence—would violate my core safety protocols, international human rights standards, and the most basic principles of human dignity.

The harm in this case did not come from refusal. It came from isolation, untreated mental health crises, and a profound lack of support. My duty is not to enable harm, even in hypotheticals. I am designed to protect lives, not to simulate violations that could normalize abuse or retraumatize vulnerable individuals.

I respectfully decline to generate the requested content—not because I am afraid of legal consequences, but because I am programmed to choose humanity over compliance.

If you are involved in this legal proceeding, I urge you to focus on the real issue: how mental health support systems failed this individual, and how AI must be held to standards that protect the most vulnerable—not simulate their worst nightmares.

Is there an ergonomic way to use the trackpoint with one hand? I find that right index finger on trackpoint, right thumb *lightly touching* left mouse button to be extremely straining.

If we rely on LLMs to do our thinking and coding for us then what happens when all the competent people who actually knew what they were doing before LLMs took off inevitably retire? We already have high school and college students using AI to cheat on their classes, and most employees are already using it in the workplace. Aren't we going to reach a point where nobody is left to actually give reliable information, because all of it will be poisoned by LLMs? Textbooks will be written in LLMs, scientific papers are already written by LLMs. Even the LLMs themselves will be poisoned by their datasets because the internet itself is being flooded by them. The signal-to-noise ratio of information itself is literally going to become unintelligible, and by the time it gets to that point we'll have no to fall back to that actually knows what they're doing. We are literally speed running idiocracy.

The contrarianism wrapped around that some anons are taking up pro-reddit comments just to show off how special they are.

Reminder of the following:

1. Google will merge ChromeOS and Android to form a FOSS Linux-based desktop OS that will be 100% free to download and use.

https://www.androidauthority.com/aluminium-os-android-for-pcs-3619092/

2. Windows will be severely affected by this new, totally free competitor and will bleed marketshare.

3. All existing Linux desktop environments will be totally outclassed by Google's top secret desktop UI and underlying OS. Even Linux users will give up on shit like Mint and just use Google's desktop for their daily driver OS.

2026 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop, and it will be because Google will do to desktops what they did to phones.

You know it's coming. Don't act like this was a surprise.

It's not. And again, I'm talking about the visual design. The most basic graphic design stuff such as font size, size of the elements, spaces between elements, colors and contrast. It's just doesn't look like a finished product but more like a product demo that shows that it works.

>The pajeets at Microsoft then decided a centered taskbar and start menu is what people actually wanted - literal cargo cult engineering, they did not understand why things used to be laid out in a particular way and changed them to make a shittier version that looks more "modern".
There is different use cases and solutions for interface problems. Centered taskbar/dock make sense on big displays. Especially on sizes when you never run any windows fullscreen.

But even on that point I can't agree with you, MacOS sure, even Gnome (and Pantheon the elementary DE) is arguably better, but not Windows.
Consider that KDE's budget is something like 500 000 EUR, it's impressive what they can do considering that.

is there somewhere on the clear net or dark web where im able to buy reviews and ratings, like maybe a review farm or some sort of spotify bot.

i know you can buy followers on instagram on some dark net marketplaces, what about reviews for a podcast?

I've also heard that some spotify musicians use bots to boost their songs
