It Seems Like BetaNews is Finally Deleting Fake 'Articles' About "Linux" by LLM Slop (aka Brian Fagioli)
WE are going to have to start keeping copies of LLM slop samples [1], seeing that some are just vanishing before our eyes. Here's the latest nonsense from Brian Fagioli. It is hours old:
Is it Brian Fagioli or some LLM slop? Seems like slop, we checked with two independent analysers:
But here's the interesting thing. The following 'article' got removed:
Press on the link and you get this:
We remember where it used to be. Now it's gone:
The removed article can be seen in the latest "Slopwatch". It's a screenshot.

CachyOS February 2025 release is here to make Arch Linux more accessible [Ed: Maybe not LLM slop, for a change from this author, but two slop detectors find evidence of slop (see above)]
CachyOS fans, get ready -- this first release of 2025 (download ISO here) was definitely worth the wait. The team held off until NVIDIA’s latest driver was available to make sure users with Blackwell-based 50xx series GPUs had a seamless experience. Now, with the 570 driver in place, Blackwell support is fully integrated.
For those unfamiliar, CachyOS is an Arch Linux-based distribution that focuses on performance and optimization. It builds on the power of Arch while adding aggressive compiler optimizations, a user-friendly setup, and custom tweaks designed to get the most out of modern hardware.
