This is definitely top 10 Linux memes of all time for me.
I feel like Y should be the successor to X.
Whyland doesn't sound as good though.
Like this one that never took off? https://www.y-windows.org/
why is that hosted in russia?
millenial.com is just a whatsapp call away!
Help! I'm getting screen tearing in the new twitter!
No, the successor for XCOM is UFO: Alien Invasion.
The development had stopped since 2020, you'll have to make do with inferior closed-source commercial clone called XCOM 2.
Ahhh I can see the graphical glitches already
on X.com, I presume (that's where I get them)
i don't get them, the delay is enough to make them disappear, my desktop too, but the glithes are gone :b
Can someone please ELI5 this to me? Everyone seems to get it (as a joke?) but me.
Ooh, it's the logo, god damn it, got it 2 secconds after posting this.
Just in case anyone else stumbles across this and is confused, I'll explain in more detail.
On Linux there are two display server protocols, the very old X11 and the newer Wayland, which was designed as a successor to X11 by its maintainers.
Elon Musk announced today that he is renaming Twitter to X (yes, just X). The above posts takes the mick out of this on this by announcing a social media website called Wayland, i.e. the successor to Musk's X.
It's not just the logo, the domain name is extremely similar too (x.com vs x.org).
Big brands like to own all variants of their domain (so you can't register google.org or facebook.net, for example). But X can't do that.
Like Weyland-Yutani?
Actual defunct process
