We've come a long way. Once upon a time, It might've said "Linux is only free if you don't value your time."

It depends. I recommend windows when people say they don't want to put any time into learning a new os.
Or gaming. While I can game without any issues on Linux i sometimes have to tweak sth. Or have issues that I as a veteran can solve easily. I wouldn't recommend it to newcomers.

Only if they've used Windows before, otherwise (IMO) Linux would be easier to learn when just starting out.
...first problem, google it, hello terminal.
Meanwhile in windows you have GUI guide, if you even meet a problem other than learn to read.
Fwiw, I still hear about it these days around me.
Damn I remember hearing this a lot like 15 years ago.
At first I was like "When I open windows, I let cool air in helping my pc to cool off better, what do you mean it's less efficient?" Then it hit me, oooh the other windows.
That's basically a knock knock joke.
A dad joke is something said in conversations.
Dad jokes can come in many forms, it does not matter how, where or why it is said for that is not what makes a dad joke a dad joke. All that matters is that sweet sweet "Uggghhhh dad" you get from your kids/teens for that is where Dad jokes live and die.
Also the wife rolling her eyes
This is great, but I need more training... Please?
Didn't you receive your welcome kit in the mail after your SO had a confirmed pregnancy? Additional training opportunities are discussed on page 420 of the handbook
Usually you make your first dad joke when your kid is born. If it didn't happen for you, you might need to go back and ask the doctor to hold you upside down and slap you on the ass.
Someone didn't take dad joke night classes
Dad jokes are classically built around puns, as is the case here.
Setting up context doesn't make this a knock knock joke.
Just because it's a pun it doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
Setting up a stupid question just to deliver a pun as a punchline is 100% a dad joke in my book.
I'm interested to hear what you think is required for a joke to be a dad joke.
Dad jokes are anything that makes children giggle and wives roll their eyes.
Wrong on both counts.
Is this a linux desk-calendar? Link please!
