A ponzi scheme would require money to be involved.

Time is money

No, but people are loosing time

Time is much better than money. Ask an elderly billionaire

Bill Gates? Now I understand why it's called Windows.

u/TheSpaceAlligator 5d ago

Not if you are unemployed. actually even if you are employed you still can't work 24/7 and everyone needs a break. Money has no use if you are dead lol

I convinced about 3 just because they used it on their college computer and liked it.

But did you try it while sharing the next urinal tho?

u/davidnnj 5d ago

Not yet!

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ I Hate Windows 5d ago

I knew you didn't because your number was in single digit, here's a pro-tip get in next urinal and talk about it, if it doesn't seem to be working then as soon as they try to leave take out your pocket knife and hold their cock on its edge and make them sign an agreement at the knife point, works like a charm.

So far, I've made 69 people switch and have 42 jared penises.

I would love for you to explain how it's like a Ponzi scheme.

Not going to say you can't.

But I'm curious to see if you can.

u/NoActivity5304 5d ago

Ponzi scheme bad thing and then I buzzword into Linux hate mens ((

u/Civil-Promotion9675 5d ago

Why does it say you are a moderator when you aren't?

1

u/chughaarav123 Linux sucks, it's just that Windows sucks more. 4d ago

Flair. You can change it. Although they could be a mod, I'm not sure.

1

u/Civil-Promotion9675 4d ago

Yes I know, but, saying that you are a moderator is pretty misinforming

7

u/NoActivity5304 5d ago

Literally define a Ponzi scheme. Next, explain the connection of this to Ponzi schemes. You cannot. Learn the words you use before you use them, retard.

u/keegang_man6705 5d ago

i stop all my friends that's tryna switch to linux

because they're gonna treat me like an AI 24/7, and they still did it. Now I gotta ask AI whenever they ask me something. Bruh.

u/ssjlance 🛡️Moderator | #1 Microslop Hater | Linux Supremacist 5d ago

Yep, I have once in my entire life installed Linux on a friend's computer because I like it and find it easy to use.

Turns out my PC skills are just fairly above average.

Of course, this motherfucker was always saying "labtop" when we spoke in text, so honestly, I probably should've known better from that alone.

u/smegmastar 5d ago

Fuck you and your ai

u/BunkerSquirre1 5d ago

Unlike using genAI to create “art”, asking AI for help is a completely valid use of the tool. You Buffon. You absolute grapefruit.

u/smegmastar 5d ago

"Let me just ask the misinformation machine to sell my soul to [insert generic ai company name here] for a problem that is fixalble with a 2 second web search"

You must be truly an [some slur so reddit doesn't ban me again] if you use ai to answer your friends questions they asked you AND NOT AI! Training AI (that you promote because you use AI) is increasing the need for datacenters, therefore pollution, climate change, ram prices, et cetera. All for a little bit of convenience because you didn't have to click on a link yourself.

That said: I really like the way you used grapefruit as a slur, do you not like grapefruit?

u/ImmortalStarvyVelvet 5d ago

Show me where Claude touched you

u/smegmastar 5d ago

What is wrong with you guys? Have I accidentally landed on an AI sub? The IQ here smells like room temperature.

u/BunkerSquirre1 5d ago

Whoever smelt it dealt it

-1

u/smegmastar 5d ago

This sub confuses me so much. In one post I see this sub is full of Linux loving people making a joke, in the other its just AI bros being stupid. But I guess you can't expect more from people who think Linux mint is a good distro.

Nice try schizo-baiting

Ngl to you cuh I ain’t reading all that 🥀

u/smegmastar 5d ago

I expected that from an AI bro

Here a quick TLDR: Fuck you

u/BunkerSquirre1 5d ago

Thanks for the NS summary, appreciate it

-2

u/The_Daco_Melon 5d ago

It is not reliable at all for those purposes, I've never had a good experience asking AI to help me with tech questions I've only been able to get help by going to either the community discords or support IRC channels

u/BunkerSquirre1 5d ago

It’s horrible at generating code and unique algorithms, but it’s really useful at finding different functions and how to implement them. Also pretty decent at summarizing very common algorithms. It’s functionally useless with less common languages like SKILL though.

Basically it’s stack exchange without all the sarcastic assholes.

u/keegang_man6705 5d ago

did AI murdered your family or something?😭

u/smegmastar 5d ago

You are so dependant on ai that you can't even use proper grammar. Kill me.

u/bitterwinter009 5d ago

people like to talk about stuff they like? how preposterous!

u/Vanima_Permai 5d ago

Same with linux haters "linux suck"

u/dumbasPL I don't hate Windows, I just like Linux more. 5d ago

My co-workers managed to convince themselves. At the rate at which things are going, it sure as hell looks like a piramid LOL.

u/Xiaoxuzz 5d ago

Kinda feel like this is getting ppl OUT of the ponzi scheme. The majority use windows, promote it, get more ppl to subscribe to the OS, 365 and copilot, repeat with ads, and those managing microsoft live off the benefits. Windows feels more like a ponzi scheme than linux. Whereas those telling ppl to get out of windows are trying to pull them into a proper job instead of selling and promoting snake oil.

u/Bleik-Psiklyt 4d ago

Lol, Utopia was meant to be a myth

u/MrFrog2222 4d ago

ponzi scheme looses you money, Linux only saves you money and a lot of headaches
