Far-right, aren't white supremacists?

Lol, what dimension are you from?

Rage with the machine

Show me an equivalent to Active Directory on Linux.

And no, allowing users to manage their machine themselves will break their entire computer and every server they can access. Most users never even read a warning if they can just click "OK".

The problem is that the second option also requires you to go to work in a tuxedo.

Only a small niche of companies allow you to not work in a tuxedo.

So complaining about tuxedos at a job (in this universe) is just dumb.

It is more than functional for corporate, seeing how the majority of companies run entirely on it.

Memes are fine.

But this is straight up propaganda trying to disguise itself as a joke.

If I'd even encounter a dev like the one from the post. I'd laugh in his face and wish him good luck on finding a job that caters to their niche needs.

Nobody said outliers don't exist.

What we are saying is that the majority (like 80% or something) are run entirely on Windows. No matter what the Linux fanboys want to believe.

Every single business running Windows computers (which is about all of them) will have an Active Directory running on Windows.

Every company I worked for only ever had a handful of Linux servers and the majority of Windows servers.

Microsoft revenue generated $26.7 billion in one quarter from its Licensing, and even though a lot of it was through cloud, a lot of it also came through self hosted Windows servers.

You live in a bubble if you think nobody is using Windows server.

You mean that Macbook Neo that has its keyboard attached with a whopping 41 screws?

I mean, it is better than the glue they used before, but it isn't nearly as repairable as other laptops. Not even close. Its SSD is still soldered to the motherboard.

And I hope this is also not piggybacking on that rumor that Windows 12 would be an AI OS. Because that has been debunked by Microsoft themselves.

I'd love for Linux to get more momentum. But call me when the marketshare on personal computers is more than 10%. Steam decks aren't really the epithome of Linux useage, are they? Can you even install a spreadsheet app on them?

Seems like you didn't learn anything about it, did you?

It is only hidden because too many non-programmers become hysterical whenever AI is mentioned.

In a rational world, it wouldn't need to be hidden.

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It is more nuance than rationality.

There are plenty of reasons to hate on AI. But in the end they are just tools to automate things. It depends entirely on how it is being used. With enough effort and most importantly checking the output, you can create things faster while still keeping the same quality as before.

Calling anything that even slightly touched an LLM "slop" and crawling in a fetus position while crying is a lot less rational. These people have no idea about the real world.
