Do teslas run android, or something else? Elon encouraging the use of Linux isn't surprising, but if his vehicles and sattelites we'rent also using Linux, I'd be more surprised.

Huh, they actually do:

And Matt Monson — who moved from the Dragon project to SpaceX’s satellite internet service Starlink — posted that Starlink uses a lot of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), and that they too have a lot of experience with Linux. “For some level of scope on Starlink, each launch of 60 satellites contains more than 4,000 Linux computers. The constellation has more than 30,000 Linux nodes (and more than 6,000 microcontrollers) in space right now.

These comments are insane. Even Hitler washed his hands. Are you gonna stop doing that just cause a piece of shit agreed it was good?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Nah, probably not, lol.

But I have been meaning to try some BSD flavors to be honest.

Heartbreaking news, worst person in the world makes a good point.

Then he pushes his company AI on Ubuntu and tries to get people to use it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

If he gets his companies to move to some homebrew, kludgey version of linux and names it dumb shit like futureOS, XOS, or linux 2, im going to tattoo my eyeballs

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Have fun with that, I'm sure it'll be fine. If he does it'll most likely be dead in the water. His fanboys wouldn't give up their MacBooks to run a Linux operating system anyway, they're all about being coddled and told what to like.

I hope now all those Tesla / Musk sycophants and influencers will start touting Linux as the "big new thing" Elon has invented. /s

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Please tell me that’s not real. I don’t want him being a Linux fan boy. That would ruin the Linux community.

Not all communities from all distros, but from some dustros... yeah, gatekeepers and snarky comments are still very much alive.
