Comment on Microsoft's Windows lead says the next version of Windows will be "more ambient, pervasive, and multi-modal" as AI redefines the desktop interface

  don’t feed the troll, that comment makes it clear they have zero understanding of what Linux is if they make generalize it like it is one thing.

    It is one thing. FreeBSD and NetBSD are not one thing. Linux is one thing.

    And I meant Linux, not distributions and userlands, so you’re the troll here.

      Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel

        Yes, and the same can be said about Windows NT, yet it’s called one thing. Honestly I think I’m getting tired of American intelligence.

      So I’m curious. If you mean the Linux kernel, when and how do you think it went off down the wrong path?

        Around year 1999. No particular reason, just it seems to have gained recognition and approval among the big fish then.

        If by “when” you mean analytically, then when it stopped being “a hobby project started by a Finnish student with participation of volunteers from all around the world” and became one of the houses of power.

  It’s an enormous centralized project upon which much of the world depends.

  And if you think you can find an intentionally put backdoor in a buttfuckazillion lines of code without even looking, purely by intuition or trusting some random security specialists from the news, then I think you’ve lost the way.

  It’s too complex and runs on too complex hardware. Honestly if we are going to look at any FOSS project with such hope, it should become a democracy first. A friendly reminder - Linux is a benevolent dictatorship, funded by corporations.

      People were doing complex surgeries, making fighter jets, submarines and spaceships without what you seem to call a computer.

      Also I can’t return to being an American because I’ve never been one.

      And C64 is a computer, Radio-86RK is a computer, Amiga 500 is a very good computer.

      Supersonic passenger planes have been built, before personal computers becoming anything common, but aren’t operated today.

      And you most likely don’t live in a more than 60 story building, despite such being built.

      And deliberately reducing your comfort is sometimes valuable, not everything should be entertainment.
