a broken clock is right twice a day

[–] shimdidly@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not sure what relevance a broken clock has to the discussion or the OP.

[–] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's an expression. In this context Elon is the broken clock and saying desktops should run Linux is one of the rare times he's been right about something.

rare times he’s been right about something.

Started a space company, and an EV company. Both longshots, both wildly successful.

Bought Twitter. Laid of 80% of the employees. Still runs totally fine.

Your position is nakedly indefensible. I'd be curious what you think he's actually wrong about.

I feel they are criticizing his actions morally rather than financially.

[–] blahsay@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

He's not wrong

At a rate of 10,658 tweets a year, I'd hope he tweets at least one useful thing

The brilliant businessman is clearly hard at work.

Please don’t fucking touch anything to do with Linux Musk. Please.

Crazy, rich South Africans is how we got Ubuntu

[–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ubuntu is a gateway drug to Arch.

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And arch is a gateway drug to NixOS or gentoo

Select your drug now

Funny Gentoo actually was my gateway to arch. Loved the customizability of Gentoo and the rolling release model.

But building Chrome and Firefox (I needed both for work reasons sometimes) every update was the nail in the coffin. Switched to Arch and didn't miss a thing.

Well, even an ape can type a book if he types long enough.
Even a dumb hen can find an egg.
Etc, etc.

Time to switch to BSD

[–] LeFantome@programming.dev 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I have been using Linux since 1993. Maybe it is time to move on.

Where are you headed next?

[–] germanatlas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Number one argument to not use Linux

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

are you that easily manipulated?

[–] jnk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

are you that dense with jokes?

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

I'll gladly have you explain to me where the pointe is here...
