Why do you think they do? Logically think it through.

Market sharen and incumbent advantage. Ease of adoption (or appearance of). Ubiquity and lack of need to retain. Predatory behaviour by MS. Different priorities for users.

Unless you actually consider the real reasons why Windows is so widespread you'll never make a dent in it.

He is very good at the following things:

• being born rich
• investing in a slam dunk future technology everyone on the planet knows we will need, eg money on the internet, electric cars, space ships
• taking risks in combining the above

That is about as far as his skillset runs. As we've seen from twitter, when he doesn't have an entire layer of his organisation set up to run interference in him, he quickly runs companies into the ground. He has had zero original ideas.

He's also a dangerous alt-right racist nutjob.

It's the kind of thing that's so blatant you forget it's wildly illegal.

This has good intentions but all this will do is make it so low income people can't travel, and not really affect the rich who are mostly the problem here.

Ophidascaris robertsi is a roundworm usually found in pythons. The Canberra hospital patient marks the world-first case of the parasite being found in humans.

The patient resides near a lake area inhabited by carpet pythons. Despite no direct snake contact, she often collected native grasses, including warrigal greens, from around the lake to use in cooking, Senanayake said.

The doctors and scientists involved in her case hypothesise that a python may have shed the parasite via its faeces into the grass. They believe the patient was probably infected with the parasite directly from touching the native grass or after eating the greens.

Moral of the story: make sure you wash all the snake shit off your produce and hands before eating.

Lol wtf. The mother goes on hunger strike.

Interestingly, these used to be called 'jokes' before memes existed.

Well that was a rollercoaster.

"He didn't do it, but he's leaving anyway"

Fantastic he's going but slightly absurd announcement.

The hilarious thing is you can't post from Sync yet, only comment, so for every post about Sync someone had to use their browser or another app to post it.

Oh my god it's beautiful. It's so beautiful.

All Lemmy instances are test environments right now. It's just that lemmy.world is being tested the hardest.

This is not very casual!
