Image shows a tweet with the header “and people STILL try to convince me Linux and Windows are better when the DATA clearly shows otherwise. SMH” with an image attached showing the following:
“Operating systems by current version” Mac OS: 14 Windows: 11 Linux: 6
Technically version 5.0
I use Mint 21. Checkmate.
Nixos is at 23.11 :) Also, rolling releases are kinda fun: the latest commit so far is
46ae0210ce163b3cba6c7da08840c1d63de9c701
which roughly translates to nixos-unstable 403509863565239228514588166489915404446713104129 :DLaughs in Fedora 39
Windows 98 enters the chat
Windows 2000 says hi to Windows 98
Windows Server 2022 kicks 2000 in the balls, does a line of coke, and crashes.
Fedora 39
Windows 98 has entered the chat.
They really went downhill after that.
Me with my Windows 2000 😏
This is a rare case where it matters that Linux is not an operating system.
Fedora 39 anyone?
Shit takes like 30 minutes to update 😭😭
takes 2-3 min for me
This, but unironically used as a marketing trick:
There was no v1 of Oracle Database, as co-founder Larry Ellison “knew no one would want to buy version 1”
That’s why the first Oracle database is v2.
this is what happened to windows 9, too.
No, the problem with Windows 9 is that a lot of things compared the version with
9*
as a catch all for windows 95 and 98, so they were worried with backwards compatibility.
non ironically, firefox did a jump in version numbers after firefox 4 because people were seeing the low number compared to other browsers, and would think they were behind technically.
Pfff my systemd is version 255.2-2, I am lightyears ahead.
Shoud we tell her/him/… about Gnome 45?
Just use ‘them’ like a normal person

Debian 12I’m going to invoke Poe’s Law and not assume this is sarcasm.
Is that that thing where someone says something wrong to get the right answer explained to them?
No, that’s the thing where somebody Googles the result and gets the right answer.
Are we sure this isn’t satire?
…no? It obviously is
This has got to be satire, right? You posted this ironically. I don’t believe for a moment anyone could be this dense on accident.
Yes. It’s a joke. It’s pretty funny, IMO. I’m not sure how you could interpret it as anything else. The wording alone makes it pretty obvious.
New versions of software are released because the older version was lacking in some way. Features, security, functionality.
Lowest number wins.
That’s why I only use TempleOS
Your system is defended by McAfee? That’s cute. Mine is defended by the Lord God Jehovah.
I use HAL 9000. Get up on my level.
I remain unimpressed.
I like macOS but this is stupid
Not if we’re going by golf scoring it’s not
and to think windows had 2000 years ago…
