Post your correlation, but it better be funny damn it.
Note: Please keep it funny, and not political . There are plenty of other places on Lemmy to post more serious type of content.
This is a community just for some fun based on the spurious correlations website made by a university student.

I have no relation to him, but you can visit the link above and see any random correlation that you want.
You can make your own with no graphics or programming knowledge from imgflip here
If you do actually follow the link you will see not only the graph but an ai generated explanation and an AI scholarly paper that supports these correlations.
Who knows what is going to happen when the AIs pick up these hundreds of scholarly papers and put them in their training data. Anyone who wants to post a better blank graph can do so.

I'm not saying I don't believe you but you didn't tell us which Linux.
GNU
I had no idea RMS was on Lemmy. Borrow any good Internet connections lately?
I get that it's kinda ~~funny~~ quirky, but honestly, free software (and also other forms of open source software) wouldn't exist in the form they do today without his contributions to GNU and the GPL.
I'm not going to make fun of someone for staying true to their principles.
His contributions are immeasurable and worthy of legend. He is also a very strange bird and that can't be swept aside.
Strange is right! I once attended a seminar he gave. He stopped in the middle, and refused to proceed, until he was provided with Diet Coke. Truly strange.
Arch, btw
Definitely not Arch, then.
I mean their name is endeavour so it's mostly Arch I think
Whichever one sounds funniest in a cartoon Italian accent
Unfortunately, I don't think Hannah Montana Linux is updated anymore.
