From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

He didnt just set the brand recognition on fire, elon basically did everything someone would do if they wanted to intentionally run twitter into the ground.
Now spez needs to rename Reddit and make his idol proud.
In a Y (formerly known as post) on Y (formerly known as reddit) a Y (formerly known as user) "vaporeonpissdrinker69" has said that...
Ycombinator looks around nervously
At least, vaporeon is compatible. In fact it is most compatible.
Perfect tagline for that site: "Y tho"
...and they replace the alien with the fellow in the meme (who was a Pope apparently. Who knew.)
Maybe that was his plan for creating true free speech, by driving everyone away from twitter to mastodon...
A very 200iq plan, only cost him $44B
It cost him a lot more than that. He lost about 200 billion in stock value that he owned and among the companies he "runs" about a trillion was lost in total due to investers dumping stock after seeing his ineptitude on full display.
Wait, he was a trillionaire before? Interesting, now I'm curious what effects did this made to the economy, it would be a fun read (maybe).
At those scales it's apparent that money is mostly imaginary.
$10 is $10 but a publicly traded tech company loses most of its value the moment you try to sell it, but that doesn't matter when the owner can "lose" 44 billion or 200 billion or a trillion or whatever and experience absolutely no change in his lifestyle.
Truly someone who is willing to go beyond his earthy wealth for his ideas of free speech.
No. The companies he controls at some level lost about a trillion in stock value combined
Yeah probably, I am trying to be funny here haha.
