To be compatible, Linux has to imitate even bugs and short comings in design of Windows and Mac otherwise compatibility will be questionable.
Also Linux has to "improve" file system to get fragmented over time, to combine/var with/etc even with/bin directories which is necessary for Windows programs to run. All the config files and log files to be converted to be binary. Has to kill repositories and package managers in order software to be installed more "easily" and implement "infrastructure" programs to self update automatically from the vendor. Linux is also behind with availability of Antivirus software (there are plenty idle CPU cycles available nowadays to be utilised).
Better compatibility and consistency can be achieved by centralised design - one kernel, one DE, one distro.
But Windows, controls and forms are for human beings which are jobless (you already forgot). So you will be out of job too. Unless you start programming embedded devices (robots, right).
Probably dictatorship. Whoever would be flight commander, after they land there will keep commanding. After years passing by society will "prove" him/her having a blue blood or royal origin and keep reigning (Grimaldi anyone).
Unless some Martians tell them to get lost and leave Mars as were told when Americans landed on the Moon.
I expect the same fate might be waiting Fuschia :
- on newer emerging segment that didn't exist before and where there aren't already well established leader, it might create its place : IoT devices, wearables, etc.
- on well established segment, the current iOS / Android will be hard to displace (Smartphone tablet). Any wannabe competitor will have to keep compatibility with them (e.g.: the various Android compatibility layer on minor smartphone OSes like Tizen, Blackberry, Sailfish OS... or failed attempt thereof: what WSL began its life as under Windows RT before being repurposed as "Bash in Windows").
Fuschia could only succeed if it basically "a different way to run android apps on your smartphone". And then being based on an entirely different kernel, it will also need to convince hardware manufacturer who have invested large amounts of know-how in Linux kernel (mainly for Android).
Fuschia can displace Android overnight if Google decide so. It is their call, their children. their control.
I prefer to be healthy than effective.
Even half the effectiveness of EVs is better than ICEs because pollution and waste are better managed when centralised (at power plant) than spread all over the place. As a bonus you get more reliable car.
If the energy is produced by the Sun or wind, I don't mind wasting couple of percentages of effectiveness, but to be more clean and sustainable.
Nuclear cars maybe will be even more effective, but you don't want such cars driving around, do you?
I get from time to time popups in Ubuntu that some program experience issues - never seen these in Debian it is unavoidable to introduce new bugs which don't exist in Debian (the same applies to Mint) . Also you have only one Ubuntu current release, I have 3 in Debian: Stable,Testing and Unstable. I am using Stable for servers and Testing for desktops. Testing and Unstable are rolling releases, you just keep updating them. Sometimes I borrow newer versions of packages from unstable, you guys in Ubuntu will see them after maybe an year eventually in the next cadence. For example apt or when they implemented multi threaded downloads from repositories - it is still not implemented in Ubuntu we have that maybe since 2 years. Bash Completion supports more programs and more options in Debian than Ubuntu. Debian reached 94% of packages reproducible builds, Ubuntu even don't think about that. Debian supports more architectures (Raspberry Pi anyone). Debian has more robust process/infrastructure for accepting new packages (that is why everybody builds on top of them) - first enters in staging(experimental), then in Unstable, then Testing and at the end in Stable. Packet is being tested in each phase by tons of users. Debian doesn't rely on some single corporation (like Canonical) to make strategic decisions. Debian guys make more practical decisions and less politics and history proves that. Debian supports all DE equally - no preferred one even choosing one of them as default.

Debian Stable
Debian Testing
Debian Unstable
On top of that you can multiply these to 17 architectures + 4 non Linux kernels
They are all Debian
Maybe he is preparing to enter in solar business. He won't be a president for ever. Hotel business already sucks.
Every program has to run in separate container.
But Windows, controls and forms are for human beings which are jobless (you already forgot). So you will be out of job too. Unless you start programming embedded devices (robots, right).
But that is only 10,000 cars.
He doesn't think about that because will be 2 meters bellow the ground and will be poor as everybody else at that level and won't consume anything.

Maybe Linus should grab Haswell's CPU blueprints of the mask and show Intel what to fix.

Even further - how we will measure: millimetres, micrometers, nano meters, kilo volts, mega or giga watts, pico or nano farads etc?!
Might work fine on Raspberry Pi 3
