.exe? 🤮

Oh they’re just making a general point.

My gf did ask me why there wasn’t an “exe” on my linux system though. But that’s another story.

Linux doesn’t have a standard file extension for executable files, and that wouldn’t have been good for this meme.

.elf is the closest thing we have.

Eh, .elf is more for really low level ELF files, so a program would just be named program, a kernel would be named kernel.elf

I hate elves. If I see any elves in my computer I’m throwing it in the forge.

YES BROTHER KILL THE ELVES

You can: ./texteditor, ./bin/texteditor, “texteditor binary”, “(local) texteditor program”.
