You can... you just need to make about $100,000,000,000 USD in profits each year, that's all.

Not even remotely true. You're making the exact same argument everyone here is making, and that's because you're attempting to argue from technical parity / superiority. Windows isn't the dominant desktop OS because

It's because Satya is worried about next quarter's earnings call, not what Windows looks like in ten years. BillG had that big meeting with everybody at Microsoft awhile back and basically told them they had about 6-12 months to r

Well he brought down his entire storage system. Twice. I believe one time he had to bring in Wendell Wilson from Wendell Wilson Consulting, but more likely know to the Internet-at-large as the primary figure on Level1Techs YouTube channel.

And he's not actually that great at that, if his storage server videos are any indication.

If you really want to take things to their logical conclusion, kill everyone who breaks the law. Eventually you'll have no lawbreakers. Either because everyone's dead, or because everyone knows they'll be killed if they break

Musk is easily on the level of Jobs and arguably beyond him, not just financially, but on the scale of what they've done for Humanity as a whole. SpaceX and Starlink just by themselves are enough to catapult him beyond Jobs, but you ad

No, people need to learn how the Internet is organized and named. It's the same as learning the Dewey Decimal system so you can navigate your local library. It should be taught in school exactly the same way. It's more important i
