From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

These hypothetical people should use Google Colab or similar services for ML/AI, since it's far cheaper than owning a 4090 or an a100.

These absolutely not hypothetical people should absolutely NOT be using Google Colab.

Keep your data to yourself, don't run shit in the cloud that can be run offline.

Exactly what data are you worried about giving to Colab?
