Oracle linux, just tell them your carpet has an unlicensed database.
I was invited to a user group where oracle Linux was trying to get more adopters. The coolest thing they had was the ability to update a kernel driver while it was running. In place. Without downtime.
I asked them if they planned on pushing this improvement to the kernel devs and they just gave me a blank face.
Told me everything I needed to know about Oracle Linux. I promptly formatted the thumb drive they gave me for free.
If they released it for free then Ubuntu wouldn’t have Ubuntu Pro to sell subscriptions to.
All of our testing cells at work run Oracle!
I don’t know much about it though.
They want to clean the carpet, not lose the house.
They actually have an oracle cloud too. It’s used by some companies… And it’s awful.
It’s used by Tony fucking Stark.
I mean, I can suspend disbelief that he is Iron Man and has futuristic fights with aliens
But I cannot believe that same man uses fucking Oracle Cloud.

Whoa, whoa, there are people who don’t like Windows? I thought Windows was like the king of operating systems?
Whoa, whoa, there are people who like Windows?
@mypasswordis1234 @NONE_dc whoa whoa there are windows users? i thought everyone uses gnu/linux
All of them except Hannah Montana Linux, which is the One True Linux.
TempleOS is the one TRUE OS
TempleOS is God’s chosen OS, but I don’t live at church. I use TempleOS to pray, and Hannah Montana Linux for personal tasks. That way I get the best of both worlds.
But it isn’t Linux.
This is the only universal truth any Linux user intuitively knows in their heart.
Hannah Montana Linux is the past, RebeccaBlackOS is the future!!
Similar to a joke my dad told in the 90’s
If Microsoft ever makes a product that doesn’t suck, it’ll be a vacuum cleaner.
Your dad is a great dadjoker!
This actually looks cool with several robots being supported
If you want a smart vacuum but don’t want to lose your privacy or be reliant on a cloud service, Valetudo is the way to go.
You’ve just sent me down another rabbit hole. Thanks man…
Apparently it’s Athena Linux. At least, that’s what the hackable vacuums use.
This website is great xD
Privacy Policy: I do not care about privacy and will try to sell, rent, lease or give away all your information (name, address, email, your pets name, etc.) to any third party (but only if they pay enough). Also I will send you unsolicited email with cute dog puppy pictures.
most honest privacy policy.
Well now I’m even more conflicted about sending them my email!
Is there even a place on the website that asks for that information?
Yes, you get an email containing a link to your download when the requested build is done.
This guy actually built an automated builder so people can easily request tailored images for their robots which is super cool.
android
Damn I really can’t argue with that. The developer is a prick
Can someone seriously type with their penis? Impressive!
When you watch it’s really not that impressive.
It’ll randomly doze off whenever you don’t look at it for 5 seconds, tho.
the one you, the reader, uses
Now this turned meta-referencial really quick.
Ironically, I’m reading this from PostmarketOS, which has support for the echo dot 2, feature phones and some smartwatches, so it might be realistic to run on a vacum lol.
Installing on my fridge. Which one is the coolest?
Kali Linux. All the kids talk about it. All the kids want to be with it.
Hannah Montana Linux.
Void has a really badass name.
TempleOS
Be careful to not store any water in there
I’d say Manjaro but they’d probably DDOS your vacuum on accident.
… My vacuum actually does run Linux.
!It’s a roborock with Valetudo installed so it doesn’t need internet access!<
There are dozens of us! Mine is a Dreame D9 with a custom GLaDOS voice pack that I can change by updating a CVS file.
And suddenly I need a vacuum robot!
Also got GLaDOS on my Z10 Pro!
Love Valetudo - it integrates so well with HA and is entirely local.
Womp womp
Actual: ChromeOS or Android
Snobby: Ubuntu with Unity
I think ChromeOS is shitty at being linux but perfect for what it’s trying to be. I would hate using it but for 80% of people they probably genuinely don’t need more than a cheapo chrome book and for that it’s great.
Android is far the best Linux, especially with security and usability
Stock android doesn’t even have a phone app. I’d say GrapheneOS is the best android. And good OK Debian is the best Linux (I don’t have the bandwidth for arch btw)
That’s why android is good. I use a vanilla AOSP
Manjaro, easy choice.
Is it actually sucky? I think I installed that once, but I didn’t use that laptop much.
Guys we forgot to automatically update the let’s encrypt certificate of our repos. In the mean time, just set the date on your machine to last week.
RHEL because the best Linux is the one you pay for.
There’s people who pay for Linux!? 😭
mostly enterprise people
But, like, is for support and stuff, no?
A lot of industries are semi-forced into it. Let me give you an example I know of first-hand. Modern SAP stacks support 3 operating systems. Windows Server, RHEL, and SuSE.
You’re probably thinking to yourself: “but rhel is just regular linux, surely you can install it on anything if you have the appropriate dependencies, I’ll bet it even just works on rhel-compatibles like rocky, alma, or centos stream!”
And you would be ~sort of~ right, but wrong in the most dystopian way possible. The installer itself does hardcoded checks for “compatible” operating systems, using /etc/os-release and a few other common system files. Spoofing those to rhel 8.5 or whatever is easy enough, but the one that really gets you is a dependency for compat-glibc-X.Y-ZZZZ.x86_64. This “glibc compatibility library” is conveniently only accessible via a super special redhat repository granted by a super special sap license (which is like ~$2,000/year/cpu). Looking at the redhat sources it is actually just a bog-standard semi-modern glibc compile with nothing special. The only other thing you get with this license as far as I can tell is another metapackage that installs dependencies, and makes a few kernel tweaks recommended by SAP.
So you can install it on alma/rocky by impersonating rhel in /etc/os-release, and then compiling a version of glibc and linking it in a special hardcoded location, but SAP/Redhat put as many roadblocks in your way as possible to do this. It took me weeks of reverse-engineering the installer to get our farm off of the ~100k/yr that redhat wanted to charge us for essentially:
./configure --enable-bootstrap --enable-languages=c,c++,lto --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --enable-multilib --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-linker-build-id --with-gcc-major-version-only --enable-plugin --with-linker-hash-style=gnu --enable-initfini-array --disable-libquadmath --disable-libsanitizer --disable-libvtv --disable-libgomp --disable-libitm --disable-libssp --disable-libatomic --disable-libcilkrts --without-isl --disable-libmpx --enable-gnu-indirect-function --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=i686 --build=x86_64-redhat-linux Thread model: posix gcc version 9.1.1 20190605 (Red Hat 9.1.1-2) (GCC)definitely worth $100,000/yr… much capitalism, many line go up
Finally… I found it… Evil Linux…
There is nothing evil about it? Like sources are available, rhel itself is cheap and actually invests a lot in oss. If you want an unsupported system you are free to do something like this.
I said evil as in the meme, like the evil version of something is its total opposite. And RHEL sound like the total opposite of what I associate whit Linux.
Just don’t tell that numpty that runs !linuxsucks@lemmy.world
I assumed that you could just run fedora and spoof RHEL. The fact that you need to use a specific GCC is insane. They must share their source code right? Or, are they no longer sharing it as they are legally required to?
Anyways, RHEL is deep suck.
The source to this compat library is in their sources last I checked, but because it’s not part of their standard repos it doesn’t technically have to be. I suspect this is eventually the end-goal.
RHEL is subscription based. Not just support anymore. Also for product.
Don’t know what to think about it… 😬
