Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Most distro lackeys can only choose Mickey Mouse, Batman,

Distro lackeys are the lowest of the low and the dumbest

All pervert Stallman did (BTW he is not a doctor of ANYTHING) was make a living off of the work of the REAL heroes:

Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Brian Kernighan, Douglas McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna at Bell Labs.

Explain, please, why GNU rips off previous creations of Unix. They made
a compatible codebase, combined with the Linux kernel. That enabled an open-source-based operating system to be freely distributed. I'm
running Linux because my computer doesn't have a CPU that can really
handle what I do with Win11. And I get to enjoy the niceties of Linux,
as I do so, but I'd rather be running Win11, honestly. I just can't do

I seem to remember once where Linus said he was interested
in a POSIX operating system with POSIX tools, which is the
basis of any distribution.

It's missing a syscall or two, but other than that, it works
remarkably well.

Please read wiki article you linked - he is just pilot solider, because
he whole life flying some military air crafts. And and the end of his
pilot carer he flew few times in to Earth orbit by rocket. He have dozen diplomas, but the article does not mention about any job experience in
any of such fields. Diplomas without any job experience make their
owners dumb and fake experts.

To sum up: You apparently do not recognize hype from true engineer hero
who works many years for his genius reputation. Musgrave can be hero

All the auto companies are getting out of EV manufacturer.

Hyperloop is defunct.

Neurolink is in limbo leaving only highly questionable results.

The Boring Company has only attained laughable results
for those few projects that were stupid enough to contract
them.

The Starship still hasn't become mission ready which endangers
the NASA lunar plans -- and the Mars fantasy has been totally

I don't think I've ever heard him speak. Years ago one of the local
stations had a fling with Air America and I would listen to RFK Jr's
segments. Now that was painful. I haven't heard him speak recently either.

It was amusing that some of my liberal friends said 'I should listen to
Air America but...' It didn't last long before the station went back to
C&W so they could sell advertising.

The focus should be on what he's accomplished and the importance of

As for the moon, I agree it's a waste of money. But if it weren't for
Musk, it would cost far more yet.

The toilets probably run Windows and Copilot so that AI can train on

Helium-3 is what will power the nuclear fusion reactors that

There ain't no fuckin' helium-3 on the Earth (not much anyway).
But the moon has LOTS of helium-3.

Therefore, we need to establish helium-3 mines on the moon

NASA wants to test its lunar landers in space sometime in 2027.

We shall see if your "matinee idol" Musk has his version ready and
able by that time. In all likelihood, the big-mouthed braggart will
not deliver and thus cause significant delays to the lunar mission.

I think Bill Gates has done more with his money, installing toilets
for people in other countries and such. Fuck the damn moon, heh.

Does he teach them how to use the toilets? The last time I passed
through Yellowstone there were helpful posters in the restrooms
explaining how to use the facilities. No, you don't stand on the seat.
The cost of replacing broken toilet seats is not trivial.

WTF?

Elon Musk.

Ugh. He's made a lot of money from taxpayer subsidies — like all
billionaires.

At least he made the subsidies work unlike the Obama/Biden 'green' scams.

Yeah, but it seemed hypocritical for him to cut off similar subsidies for others when he was part of whatever department Trump created for him.

I'm Laura Loomer and I apporve this message.

I don't go on any of these "social" media sites. Early on I saw people
taking pictures of the hamburgers they were eating and posting them online.
Or pictures of their cats, LOTS of pictures of cats. My social life may be pathetic, but it's not that pathetic.

I like forums and/or newsgroups better. That way you can select what you're interested in. (Maybe you can with social network outfits also. I don't
know. I just know I don't have any interest in them.)

Heh ...

He is OK, though, despite his public persona.

I enjoy his public persona. When you're good, you're good.

He can be annoying to listen to, with the stammering...

I don't think I've ever heard him speak. Years ago one of the local
stations had a fling with Air America and I would listen to RFK Jr's segments. Now that was painful. I haven't heard him speak recently either.

It was amusing that some of my liberal friends said 'I should listen to
Air America but...' It didn't last long before the station went back to
C&W so they could sell advertising.

I forgot all about Air America. Is it still in business? (I guess I could check.)

...Nope. Long gone. Jerry Springer? Rachel Maddow? Al Franken? No wonder.

Exactly. Money in his hands produces better results than anywhere
else, by a longshot.

If nothing else, he rescued Twitter from the twits.

It's still pretty "twittified" as far as I can tell.

It's a fsck of a lot better than what it was.

I just see occasional "tweets" or "x's" or whatever they're called now. It's not something I want to waste my time with. Some of the "tweets" that do
show up seem pretty weird.

I don't understand changing the name from Twitter to X. People still call it Twitter and still refer to posts as "tweets."

I guess the "Karens" all moved over the the Blue Sky echo chamber. A lot of screeching there, I would imagine.
