They’re selling billionaires a bridge to nowhere; and it’s working.

That's just wealth redistribution /s

Why did my son die in the rehab facility?

Mac is very similar to Linux in that it comes with bash (these days zsh) and a lot of the command line tools you’d expect on Linux, including gcc

No it doesn't.

The gcc command is a wrapper for clang, and the clang command is a stub that runs an executable used to install the "Xcode Command-Line Tools"

It also uses the BSD coreutils, rather than the GNU coreutils present on most Linux distros. The two are only compatible up to functionality defined by the POSIX standard, and anything beyond that is an inconsistent mess.

Windows is more difficult. The command line is very different (it inherits from DOS instead of Unix like both Mac and Linux). It doesn’t come with Python pre-installed

If you limit yourself to not using WSL, sure. WSL 2 runs an actual Linux kernel with the same Linux executables you would find on any other distro.

It's still Windows and full of telemetry and AI garbage nobody wants, but it somehow manages to have better Linux compatibility than macOS.

Can gop bail out the store or is that strictly for ~~farmers~~ their corporate donors and personal friends?

The only way that username would check out is either if it was owned by a pushy and holier-than-thou social progressive with zero self-awareness, a conservative with a small world view that feels "owning the libs" is a personality trait, or a troll.

Now, considering your account was created on this platform two days ago, just called the resident population of Lemmy stupid, and drink whatever kool-aid Musk is selling, it's a toss-up between the last two.

Much like Musk himself, it seems.
