  • he was wrong but you are way overcompensating. if windows suddenly became exorbetantly expensive, most people would just stop using computers altogether (its already easy for many people live with just a phone no PC). The remaining computer users (not counting businesses) would be enthusiasts, who are much more likely to enjoy the tinkering of Linux, or put up with it to avoid exorbetant costs. so without even gaining anymore users, Linux’s desktop market share would shoot up.

    to be clear I don’t think Linux Desktop taking over is imminant or “near future.” thats nuts, it will probably always be a niche for enthusiasts and thier families/friends. but its also not going to stay eternally at 2-4%, the user experience is constantly improving and encompassing more hardware.









  • I think this meme isn’t talking about the horny kind of gooning or the social kind of boss, I think it’s about like classic cartoon goons, like how batman would go foil the plans of The Penguin and his goons every saterday morning, and in these types of shows the goons would always just talk to the villain in short sentences like “ok boss” or “you can count on me boss”

    Language is descriptive, not prescriptive. Word meanings can change over time, the only thing that makes a word’s definition “correct” is if it successfully communicates information.

    I’m not saying that to castigate you but to make your point bullet proof.

    I actually agree with your definition, but arguing that a word’s definition is wrong simply because “thats not how it’s defined” ignores the way that real people actually use words today
