Definitely disappointed

Redhat is just part of IBM now, so even more baggage on top.
Yet another reason I've been a Debian user for so long.
Wild. How many Israelis still have IBM tattoos?
Say what now?
The number tattoos from the holocaust directly tie into early 'database software' aka tabulation machines developed by IBM. IBMs NYC HQ was involved the entire time from prewar census to ghettos to concentration camps. And then they made your first PC.
My first PC was zilog based. But yep, IBM 100% helped Nazi Germany catalog and track their prisoners on the way to the ovens. But like so many companies they've been allowed to whitewash their image.
Whoa, thanks.
Commodore 64 gang, by the way :-D
Commodore 64 gang
🤘🏼🤜🏼
They made the Amiga 500??!?
Amiga, the superior computing platform of the 20th century
o7
They made Fisher-Price My First Computer?
How have I never heard of this?
Came here to post about their NSA development, but your comment tops it off.
... fingers crossed someone doesn't bring up some shit about Debian ...
No company behind it, the DSC/DFSG has been around for around 30 years now, its operated through the non-profit SPI for just as long, and important to note it was Bruce Perens who made the first draft of the DSC.
I think the drama in Debian has historically been more on the geekery side than anything else, and should continue to be the case for a looooong time.
I used to think that the worst part about using Fedora was seeing all the m'lady memes when searching to a fix to your issue without paying Redhat...guess that's the second worse thing now.
So the hat was red all of this time from blood then?
Well that's really dissapointing to learn when having multiple fedora installations at home...
(Other family member`s desktop and my own server)
The thing is I kinda want SELinux on my server. Hm SUSE is German which does not bring much hope. Probably worth checking.
(Am I crazy enough to use Gentoo on my server as well?)
Maybe you can answer this, but why do you want SELinux? When I was on openSUSE, I felt like whatever that thing was doing was preventing me from just turning my computer on and playing some games. Proton-GE ESPECIALLY.
Now, on Fedora (yay at the above news..) I don't have that issue any longer. no idea what is installed on Fedora, but it doesn't give me nearly as many of those issues that openSUSE did.
I think openSUSE is awesome, but for someone like me who doesn't fully understand all the little things going on in the OS, a default install of openSUSE was much worse off on my system config than Fedora was.
Fedora comes with SELinux also, but clearly with a better set of policies
The meme is poignant, but it would be nice if you accompanied with a non-meme source, so people can be informed with factual information.
Thanks. This at least gives some context.
