Mr. Robot - Linux Desktop Environment Wars

these actors have no idea what they are talking about

[luszczi]

A very natural conversation between two real humans.

[scrow]

"So i see you're running TempleOS?"

[crism]

This has American Psycho energy. I'm expecting the scene to follow like:

"Impressive. Very nice, let's see Paul Allen's desktop environment"

And turns out he's using either Sway or a customized, hand compiled CDE

[Shack]

Elliot would say "I use Arch by the way"

[gutopuglisi]

I was actually expecting Elliot to be using some tiling window manager.

[jag]

If Tyrell saw Elliot using Vim or Nano, this episode would have been 3 hours long and boring as hell

[vladlvv]

As for a linux user such as myself, i must say, they are having very reserved and polite discussion

[vndrlm]

and then both of them proceeded to do their jobs and never spoke to each other again. Happy ending.

[ghywobu]

It would be hilarious if after this we saw Eliot's Desktop and it's just vanilla Ubuntu 😂.

[teob]

"you know, i'm something of a Linux user myself"

[primary_magic]

In reality they would've started arguing if the G in gnome is silent or not.

[georgevourtzoumis]

I like how the dialogue subverts expectations and cliches by having Tyrell not repeat the same exact words that Elliot was thinking in his head and saying it differently, which is more realistic.

[gt]

Plotwist it was a virtual machine on a windows11

[chillappreciator]

Tyrel is underestimated character in terms of technology. It would be so fun to see him using hacking skills(except phone episode)

[SheaTDM]

Almost certain that Elliot is running Arch with GNOME.

[xeienar]

-good haircut
-working on an office during daytime
-actual linux user caring for desktop environments (we do not)
-friendly conversation with a superior
-not a single mention to arch linux

yeah thats definitely a linux user.

[luizhp]

When i reach 90 years old, the kids will say: "Ow, grandpa running linux" 🐧❤

[outofahat]

In MrRobot Elliot is the mc and Mike Ross is a side character
In Suits Mike Ross is the mc and Elliot is a side character

[dotapark]

I didn’t understand this conversation when I first saw it. I rewatched the show after learning things about computers and programming, it made too much sense 😂

[nataliep]

Elliot is in fact the creator of TempleOS and his real name is Terry Davis
