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 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?

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.

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.

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.

Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules
2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like “every user of thing”.
  • Don’t get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of “peasantry” to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.

 

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don’t understand or can’t verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community – even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don’t remove France.
