Re: Fortunes-off - do we need this as a package for Bookworm?

[Charles Plessy <plessy@debian.org>]

I got curious at the offensive fortunes so I looked at English and
Italian ones.  I wrote a couple of comments in this email, that I then
deleted...

I think that in the XXIth century an ambitious replacement would be to
train a "Deep Learning" model with social network trolls to generate
offensive statements on the fly.  Somtimes, the mismatch between the
output and the expectation, while deeply offensive, could be funny or
even reveal some neglected traits of our societies.  But maybe the model
would be too large for our archive, not to mention that the source to
train it would be huge.

In the absence of such a first-class modernisation, and given the
abundance of internet connectivity our current slice of the XXIth
century, a good fortune packages could focus on delivering tips on how
to find and download the cookie package that fits each users taste.

Have a nice day,

Charles
