Do it Elon, take the Linux pill.
Fuck no, I think this is the one time we need to gatekeep.
Darn it, I really wanted to troll him in posts.
No thanks. I don’t want fake ass engineer Musk doing cringy programmerhumor tweets. He’s already a edge lord with video games and I really don’t want to see more communities propping him up because he tweets “sudo rm -rf hahahaha I’m sudo man” or whatever his cokebinged brain tells him
If anyone needs it and doesn’t know
No one complains about ios/android requiring a login.
But, it doesn’t? I have yet to log into a Google account
I know that the shield (android tv) does.
Gotta have them sweet data tracking metrics
Android TV is different than phone
well, android really doesn’t require a login
Android doesnt, but a “non PC Laptop” does
Because they don’t. Neither iOS nor Android require an account.
It does ask you to provide a Google account (on Android), but you can just skip that step. You can’t use the PlayStore to download apps, but that’s about it. Everything else Google works, even updates, you just browse everything as anonymous (well… more or less).
You can with Aurora Store which you install via F-Droid.
Install apps you mean?
aurora store lets you install stuff from the play store without an account
Oh no!
If only there was a non-Windows alternative.
OMG! Elon you should totally direct your minions of big brain programmers to create a new OS… XOS? About 6 months oughta be enough time to crank that out.
I’d unironically like to see that.
XOS belongs to Transsion, for its Infinix line of smartphones using the Android skin.
Hmmm… maybe he can use OS X!
I bet if he did try to make his own OS, he’d buy the rights to the name XOS. That, or he’d just do something that doesn’t make the list for dumbest things he’s ever done but is still really dumb and just use another random letter instead of X.
Pretty sure that’s exactly how Apple got to name iOS the same as Cisco’s IOS without getting obliterated by a trademark lawsuit.
He’s probably banned from having an MS account.
X the OS incoming. A half baked Tesla OS offshoot with twitter as the default home page.
Red Star OS wearing a thin layer of spandex.
Tesla os is just a Linux distro based on arch I think?
That is a lie. Is the the free speech OS hand coded by a genius with a massive penis.
temple os 2, just like the first version, it was coded by a single man that has never done any wrong in his life
Found a glowie.
no clue about tesla but you could be thinking of steamos, and that is a distro based on arch
We swapped. Wayland social media coming. https://wayland.social/
Shit I hope he names it Xos and then watch Apple try to sue him into oblivion.
Why would they be able to sue him?
OSX, Xos, you don’t see the similarities that might confuse consumers?
Maybe he’ll buy the rights to Xandros
XempleOS
On a different note.
I tried to install debian.
I will exclude my attempts to install debian Trixie since it is still in development however the net install doesn’t seem to be working at all.
So I tried debian bookworm the live disc. It did install fine. Everything worked until I first booted the system. All I could see was some (fuck you Nvidia) Nvidia errors and that it couldn’t start the ssdm so it threw me into the tty however debian per default disables the root account or whatever and the other account wasn’t in sudoers file yet. So I couldn’t log in into tty.
New install borked and no way of fixing Nvidia drivers…
So I used the normal image of debian. Then it worked.
Ahh, the quintessential debian initiation, welcome to the club.
if a user is not in the sudoers login as root and edit your /etc/sudoers. look for the line that starts with “root ALL =…” copy and paste it below with root replaced with your username
edit: nevermind I missed the part that said disabled the root account. that’s weird not sure why you wouldn’t be able to access root unless maybe a typo during password creation
I don’t have a twitter account because I don’t wanna see this shithead’s tweets, how nice of you to bring them here 🤢
Yeah, there are lots of people who’ve said this and are not also fascists. There’s no reason to platform this scumbag.
Please gods, don’t let Elon musk become a Linux evangelist
If only Elmo had the money for an Enterprise license …
I ran into this 2 days ago. Turns out if you sign in with no@thankyou.com and type in a bogus password it will just say “oops something went wrong” and you can create a local account.
This is indeed the quickest way to get round it.
Can’t you just not connect to the Internet?
No, that’s literally not an option anymore. The installer won’t let you proceed without an internet connection unless you do the Shift+F10 oobe\bypassnro trick then have to wait for it to reboot.
Wow wtf? What if you don’t have Internet? You can’t use windows?
I prefer gofuckyourself@hole.com
my goto has usually been: nunya@fuckdamn.biz
Doesn’t want to give Microsoft access to his computer but is installing poorly researched chips directly in to human brains
You aren’t forced. Its just extremely obfuscated and you have to enter bogus info if you don’t want to use the command line.
Elon musk, the “real life iron man” can’t figure out how to by pass windows online account login?
Nor can he find the irony of not being able to use something without having an account
Jimmy Carr called him that on the Big Fat Quiz. Last time I wanted to punch that guy was when he was on JRE calling comedians philosophers. Time before that was when he got caught dodging taxes.
A lot of hatred you got there towards a guy that looks like a haunted ventriloquist doll.
Roger Federers downy twin…
And he laughs like one, too
What did Geppetto do to you?!
Ha ha haa!
JRE means only one thing for me: Java Runtime Environment
the “real life iron man”
James Hobson is the actual real life Iron Man.
Switches to linux: “There seems to be something called X on here! You seeing this too?”
even Linux users know that X needs to be retired
“and somehow they not only made it first but they’re on the 11th version, very impressive might buy it later”
That’s too intelligent. He’d Xeet about how he’s going to sue X.org as a corporation and Santa Claus as an individual.
