AI should re-write GNU compiler and glibc in rust and release it under a closed source license with Elon Musk and grok
Canonical and RedHat should implement this and spend heaps of money keeping it closed source and proprietary.
the rest will follow suit.

The end user should never have a compiler because this is antithetical to the user experience.

users should be required to register with a "Linux account" and a renewable "linux license" to make sure the system is up to date and genuine, A genuine system would not be able to download files.

Apps should be installed with one click, or through a paid app store, and not with using retarded configurations and "muh compiler" like a sub 50 iq neckbeard

Software included would be provided by Microsoft and Google.

the system should be immutable because the user should not need to modify the system, and should not be able too.

The user would be allowed a total of 3 folders, Desktop, Downloads, and Cloud.
The Cloud would be a non-optional part of the subscription fee, and would back up automatically every user file.

as well there are security considerations if an unauthorized program where allowed to run, the system would be compromised requiring a licensed technician to repair.

The reason nobody will ever use linux is because it is free.
if linux costed money and required a proprietary license then
ordinary people and buisnesses would use it.

Free things are typically recognized as being low quality, trial versions and riddled with malware.

There are serious global security concerns with software being freely available and easily modified.

Only then will we achieve year of the linux desktop

>he wants a dumb machine which does exactly what it's designed for and nothing more
they'll never actually do it, a locked down system doesn't create problems to solve for the tech industry. it just werks
>inb4 artifical problems
why would they do this when current tech gives real problems naturally and for free?
>>
Torvalds dies and the Kernel copyright changes to proprietary and closed source.

DistroHopping would no longer be allowed, the system cannot be replaced.
The unified Linux distrobutiong colloquially known as "The Distro" or "Linux"

updates are non-optional and the OS and Software version is controlled by the repository and can not be downgraded, machines deemed "obsolete" would no longer be supported by the repo and updates and software support will cease.

The bootloader should be locked, the kernel signed and the MOBO manufacturer would need to be complicit or the system would not run.
Linux computers should not be compatible with windows and Windows computers should not be compatible with linux,
this would be a security vulnerability.
>>
There will be no command prompt.
>>
Bash should be replaced by a reduced functionality agentic copilot, requiring an internet connection or the system would not work, computers would have esim cards.
Full functionality would be available on windows.
