BSD Vs. Linux
  • BSD developers: who cares about that. And, it is already happen. Android libc use lots of code of OpenBSD libc. OpenSSH is used everywhere.

    GNU's ssh implementation seems to be some abandoned trash, even though it was started in 1998, before OpenSSH. If OpenSSH doesnt exist, we can hope that everyone will be using differently broken ssh implementations; I'd expect gnu ssh to be a buggy, unreliable implementation which support hundreds of thounsands of flags and configuration options. Workers everywhere will be punished because of their buggy implementation of ssh. Why workers in every companies have to make their own ssh implementation? They should be doing something else.

    Experience with GrapheneOS
  • If anyone saw a guy named AnonymouseJoker posting on any thread about GrapheneOS and criticize it, please ignore. What he is doing is spreading misinformation about an operating system that take a true approach to security. So CIA agents aka "journalists" will not find out a secure operating system to use, and then their phone can explode whenever the Chinese government want.

    The reason why the AnonymouseJoker jokes
  • What I do here is analyzing the content of TheAnonymouseJoker's posts. When I saw he say 98% Chinese people approve their government, it popped up in my brain today that TheAnonymouseJoker is separating disgusting "journalists" from a secure operating system. Then those "journalists" will get their device hacked by the Chinese government when they came to China. Is that right?

    The reason why the AnonymouseJoker jokes
  • I might be in their room next month. But what they gain from kidnapping a 15 years old child from Viet Nam? I'm not Zhuge Liang. Reading Sun Tsu's book and find out the reason why a joker jokes is not something special.

    Bootloader equivalent to Rufus
  • What have you used that’s worked well? Or, could I run Rufus on my linux machine with WINE?

    A BLOODY STUPID IDEA!

    Using Wine is just stupid enough.

    dd is safe. I have used Balena's Etcher 2 years ago but it seems the drive isn't bootable in UEFI mode!

    How bad is Microsoft?
  • Also mean more commercial distros. Less donations to BSDs projects.

    And it also increase the strength of Apple and Google, do you want to see that?

    How bad is Microsoft?
  • It requires any modifications to be under GPL.

    And it also requires anything that incorporate GPL codes also be under GPL.

    And the code must be published to the copyright holder as far as I know.

    How it harms the end user are described.

  • Congratulations for not being in any team!

    I've written more clearly that you must be a writer to join team 1 or 2. Keep going on your project, and ignore those who are fanatical and like to meddle in other people's affairs, like the guys who want a project to refuse donations and contributions from some specific or all company.

  • Distributions like RHEL and Debian freeze packages, you will have to use old package when the newer is available. I think these distributions is just for highly mission-critical system, they have to run software smoothly, no breakage. Most personal computer don't need that stability.

    Can anyone explain more about what a stable distributions mean?
