Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    maybe they mean open to copilot/recall

    [–] stupidcasey 10 points 7 hours ago

    It’s an analogy ok, We mean Open like a festering wound or open like yo mama with your data.

    Tell me they didn't. Tell me this isn't an actual slide. This is just too funny.

    The most ~~open~~ operating system

    Just look at all the operating it does

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

    So much operating that it takes TWENTY ONE AND HALF FUCKING MINUTES TO SHUT DOWN

    Of course, they make your personal information completely open to hackers and advertisers. They also make you open your wallet to buy a Windows 11 compatible computer.

    I truly just don’t understand this timeline anymore

    Harambe was just the first casualty. The root cause was the weasel in the Large Hadron Collider shortly before that event, which shifted us into the bad timeline.

    [–] SpaceNoodle 1 points 9 hours ago

    No, we lost Bowie and Prince.

    [–] [email protected] 105 points 14 hours ago

    It's open to advertisers.

    [–] HStone32 79 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    I swear. If they start adding 'open' and 'free' to their buzzword salad...

    [–] NounsAndWords 48 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

    You mean the guys who already own like 49% of "Open"AI?

    [–] HStone32 20 points 11 hours ago

    """"" open"""""ai

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 12 hours ago

    The next head of state for the USA famously is allergic to the truth, why would we hold American companies to a higher standard?

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 14 hours ago

    We’re living in bizarro world. Anything’s possible.

    [–] [email protected] 36 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

    Open to whom??

    You to my data? Get lost.

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 13 hours ago

    Open to criminals, of course.

    There's really great deals on 2nd hand computers because of win11 tho...

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 11 hours ago

    That is a better oxymoron than Microsoft Works lol

    [–] [email protected] 31 points 14 hours ago
    [–] [email protected] 15 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

    Where is this from? I'd be interested in hearing what they're saying here.

    Thank you for sharing that, could not find a link back to it. On an unrelated note I have a stitch

    [–] [email protected] 17 points 14 hours ago

    I wanna hear the bullshit that definitely came out of that guys mouth

    [–] tdawg 12 points 13 hours ago

    Open to exploitation maybe

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 11 hours ago

    Where is the meme where this is on top, and there is an image of tux with "The most secure operating system"

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

    The same system were to bypass the forced account sign-in during installation process one has to trigger a hidden prompt/terminal? Or the one that wants your desktop files to be hosted on OneDrive?

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

    On windows 10 I think you could also bypass it with no internet + fake logins till is said to skip. Nothing like a "skip" button yeah but fuck Micro$oft

    [–] rkk 7 points 13 hours ago

    imagine that you work for them and maybe sitting in the first row. who dares to laugh at the face of the ceo? must be an uplifting moment.

    [–] ghurab 4 points 13 hours ago

    there is no way this is not an attempt at subverting the term

    [–] ajcolson 3 points 12 hours ago

    This is one hell of a good April Fool's joke.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

    It’s nice for all the windows users who can now copy, crack and redistribute any part of windows legally.

    Of course they would challenge it but words can be binding and there is room in law for interpretations. Piracy is also already winning the war on sharing.

    No no, Android is the open one!

    [–] StrongHorseWeakNeigh -4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)
