Amazon would be pretty surprised to realize it isn’t an e-commerce business. Secondly, Musk’s site, X.com, is younger than Confinity which it merged with to become PaypL (Confinity from Dec, 1998 and X.com was founded Nov, 1999). Amazon preceding both by going online in July of 1994.
electric cars,
*trollface* Electric cars have existed for over a hundred years before Tesla ever existed. The race car driver who set a land speed record in an EV in 1899 would probably have been amazed to know that electric cars were invented by someone who wouldn’t be born until 72 years later.
It's insulting that Microsoft claims that enterprises are asking for this.
Why else would they have also maintained a Unix layer on NT for decades prior if no one was asking for something like this? Just because you don’t use something doesn’t mean others don’t.
in other words, given the chance, no one is going to intentionally shell out cash to run GCC on a copy of windows.
Who said anyone would? WSL is for people already running Windows and used something prior like Windows Services for Linux. Microsoft has never claimed anyone is going to buy Windows purely to run WSL.
don't tell me that they design the A10 soc, they just bought the company PA semi on 2008 and that's what their "design" team consists of,
Samsung has bought companies too. So have plenty of other semiconductor companies. To say that that means the buyer company doesn’t design the product is the height of stupidity.
Even an $1100 iPhone X is only about 7.5% the cost of a base model Kia Rio or 8.5% of a Chevrolet Spark. Hardly a significant amount especially since many cars are 1.5 to 2x the prices of either of those cars.
the strange thing is that samsung makes 3/4 of the iphone, yet apple "innovates"
No, what is strange is seeing people state stupid things such as your post. Also, fabbing something that someone is designs is not “making” it. Most of the components in an iPhone are not made from Samsung. Just reading an iFixit iPhone teardown would disprove your ludicrous claim.

And, yes, I realize GP is probably a Poe’s Law post, but some of these Musk cocksuckers really are that delusional.
The man invented e commerce,

Was that word salad supposed to mean something?
This is a joke, right? Are you unable to use an online dictoonary or Google?
Stop being an aspie literalist. Most people know what was meant by that term.
Hard to do when the duper is the owner himself.
Do tell us as well about not having a TV and how you shake your fist at clouds.
and soon mac os will be just as locked down.
Uh huh. We’ve been hearing this for nearly 10 years now. Every year it’s “soon” to happen and yet fails to happen.
R&D costs are more than just salaries.
Improve your skills, become marketable, hoist yourself up by your own petards, and join the economy as a maker and not a taker.
What the hell does this drivel actually mean? Improve ones skill and then be blown up by a bomb you created?
$6 million a year to Apple is peanuts. They make more than $200 billion in yearly revenue.
And that has what to do with anything?
Windows Services for Unix was around since 1999. So, yes, that would span multiple decades.
It's insulting that Microsoft claims that enterprises are asking for this.

and used something prior like Windows Services for Linux
Ugh, obviously meant Windows Services for Unix.

This is just a continuation of their older Unix layer they’ve had for decades, but just without a decrepit old codebase.
Rich companies skirt around fixing things all the time when the fine is cheaper. You seem to be incredibly naive.
How so? $160,000 a day (using the 16 per day average) for a whole year would only be barely over 1% of Apple’s yearly net income.
$16,000 a day wouldn’t be noticeable in the least to Apple. They probably make that selling less than 2 dozen iPhones.

Simple: Hardware got more powerful.

To make you upset since you seem unusually preoccupied with what other people buy.
