He'll realise his own distro and call it OS X.

Realistically, he would call it ElonOS, hire a bunch of shitty systems programmers to cobble together a bullshit operating system mostly comprised of code stolen from other open source projects, insist that it be written in python because "python is critical to AI," talk about how the OS integrates with AI seamlessly while having no actual AI in it at all, sell it with a tiered subscription that locked basic functionality, like being able to use the file system, behind a paywall, and then quickly abandon the project and fire everyone involved, having made no real money from the venture but still referring to it as a "triumph of engineering."

then_three_more ,

All that, but he has said he loves the letter X maybe XlonOS.

rwhitisissle ,

If he wants to name it after something he loves, he could name it ApartheidOS, EmeraldMineOS, ApartheidEmeraldMineOS, etc. The possibilities are endless.

I really want him to do this. Could you imagine the fallout from the war between Musk's lawyers and Apple's lawyers?

I think he sees the decline of Windows like everyone else. He is in the tech space you know. It is kind of ironic that he is complaining about Microsoft. Tesla has its own issues.

Too expensive for me. FreeBSD it is!

Time to boot up the old windows 98 machine from the closet and start making my own modern app alternative.

Spez ,

I’d rather go for Win95, now that dotnet9x is out there and I can run modern software:

There's always BeOS.

Remember BeOS and how it was going to be the future?

Poor BeOS.

(Yes, yes, Haiku. But who uses it?)

kspatlas ,

I ran haiku on a laptop at one point, actually supported it really well

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

It's probably a good OS, but I doubt it will ever become the dominant new OS was hoped BeOS would become.

CommunityLinkFixer Bot ,

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !unix_surrealism

Fuck off Musk.

  • Get everyone to use Linux
  • Buy Linux
  • Enshittify Linux with Ads until its almost as bad as Windows
  • Profit

...what do you mean, "open-source"?

celeste ,

Buy Linux
How? Like he could buy individual OSs like Redhat or Ubuntu maybe but Linux :o ?

ProIsh ,

He got his EA renewal numbers and is using a tweet to bargain for deeper discounts.

MonkderDritte ,

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

iopq ,

What's the best BSD distro? Asking for a friend

zcd ,

GhostBSD looks kinda neat

hash0772 ,

For desktop usage, use FreeBSD or something that is based on it. For servers, you should use NetBSD or OpenBSD (my personal choice).

d_k_bo ,

Time to switch to BSD

cavveman ,

So PlayStation os?
