Points at cellphones also, but fuck that I like the meme
And supercomputers. And most embedded devices powerful enough to run a full OS.
Don't forget steam deck and most gaming consoles
Most game consoles don't run Linux
I believe the the Playstation is BSD based.
Servers and phones: Are we a joke to you?
Though I love Linux with all my heart, i don't even recommend it to family. Mostly out of fear of having to provide tech support .
Are you not already tech support for your family?
No. I only know Linux. At least that's what I tell them.
Gotta do that from now. Thanks for the advice.
This fr ^
I do because I already am tech support and Linux is easier than windows. Now my close family uses Linux and very rarely needs any help
Same here. I’m going to be tech support anyway, so they might as well be using an operating system that doesn’t break every 5 minutes like Windows. Aside from the occasional printer weirdness, I really haven’t had to do much. Linux just works.
Isn't the OS that North Korea uses technically a version of linux?
Red Star OS is Linux. v3 was based on Fedora and uses KDE.
The Red Planet has been colonized by the Penguin: https://www.theverge.com/2021/2/19/22291324/linux-perseverance-mars-curiosity-ingenuity
The first interplanetary kernel!
I pledge allegiance...
I don't know if windows is running out of our planet. But I know some Linux are in some satellite thing. So Windows is an earther problem
Is this real?
