So far, EU OS is a Proof-of-Concept for the deployment of a Fedora-based Linux operating system with a KDE Plasma desktop environment and bootable container technology in a typical public sector organisation. Other organisations with similar requirements or less strict requirements may also learn from this Proof-of-Concept.

Here comes Europe, Fuck Yeah. Here to save the motherfucking day yeah.

I do a fair amount of video editing with it, and I haven’t had it crash once, in Windows or Linux, in years now.

Speaker brand, they may be looking for some software for managing it. Probably gonna need to run it in WINe.

AMD drivers: Native, will auto-install as the mesa library, AMD is tits in Linux, it just works.

Gmail: Thunderbird works with Gmail accounts and can sync the calendar.

iTunes: Rhythmbox has a very similar layout to iTunes and so should feel pretty familiar.

Anti-virus: Linux doesn’t really need antivirus in the same way Windows does because it’s more locked down and doesn’t have the same vectors of attack. If someone is hacking a Linux machine, it’s a corporate server, not your desktop PC. If you still think you might need one ClamAV is available for Linux distributions. (.deb for Debian derivaties and .rpm for Fedora derivatives)

Py-Charm: As others have noted, Python is installed natively and is usually already implemented “out of the box” on a fresh install. No need for a program to run it, Python is just… there already.

Remote Desktop: Whatever distribution you have will likely also come with a Remote Desktop client. I am unaware of whether or not they will connect natively to iOS.

Star Citizen: You should be able to add this as a non-Steam game to Steam and use Steam’s Proton compatibility layer to play it. A few years ago they were literally asking for Linux players to test it with Proton and Easy Anti-Cheat.

VPN: Linux has extensive VPN support including “roll your own” through either OpenVPN or Wireguard.

Windows Games: Steam, using the Proton compatibility layer, which is essentially WINe, just made a little easier. As with Star Citizen, just add it as a non-Steam game and viola.

Windows 10: The Distribution of your Dreams is just around the corner… I’ve heard Mint isn’t a terrible place to start.

Xubuntu soared on my 2007 iMac with no issues whatsoever. 😎

Seconding BSD if only for this li’l guy. Got that Lucifer vibe.

I mean, any FOSS project from anywhere could be being used by a fascist government or corporation, to be fair. That’s literally one of the very serious and real downsides of FOSS. It’s able to be used for good or ill.

I mean, it can easily be argued that the US corporate technology class has benefited far more from FOSS than end-users worldwide.

Amazon’s EC2 especially:

Initially, EC2 used Xen virtualization exclusively. However, on November 6, 2017, Amazon announced the new C5 family of instances that were based on a custom architecture around the KVM hypervisor, called Nitro.

Amazon leveraged FOSS to create their own successful closed-source offshoot. AWS pretty much runs the web. Amazon… is not a good company.

That being said, the US has chosen to be isolationist, whether all of its citizens agree with it or not. Having less of a presence on the international stage, including in the FOSS world, is simply a consequence of isolationism. So boycotting US FOSS is likely to happen in some ways on purpose, and in some ways just from diminished international respect and involvement.

I think it’s hilarious that Sony was so scared of Bluray failing and becoming another Betamax that they basically bought out any future from under HD-DVD which probably would have been more successful (like VHS).

In the end, streaming won the day and Blurays are already a thing of the past.

To be clear, the first Blurays were coming out in June 2006, Netflix began internet streaming in January 2007, barely six months later.

Whoopsie doodles Sony you fucking idiots.

(I mean there’s a lot of reason streaming sucks but fuck Sony for real.)

They probably are thinking of the FreeBSD stuff in macOS.

That sounds entirely plausible to me. Once again, when it comes to PewDiePie, I have no idea what the fuck I am talking about.

Interesting, I kind of assumed that he’d been long forgotten by the YouTube crowd, but he’s still the number 10 top youtuber going by how many subscribers he has.

So, this may actually have an impact on Linux perception, but I’d wager with people in PewDiePie’s age group more than younger people. He’s 35, a lot closer to my age than expected.

If I sound like an idiot it’s because I never followed PewDiePie except for watching him scream and flail in Dark Souls that one time.

Can’t you just systemctl reboot --firmware-setup from the cli?

I had even forgotten that.

I can’t fucking stand that piece of shit Eric Migicovsky. He fucked a bunch of the workers at Pebble on his way out, selling it to Fitbit, and then leaving them hanging when they were promised their jobs were part of the sale.

His whole Beeper breaking into iMessage and then trying to make it work for three days and then just giving up after it became clear Apple was going to fight it. It reeked of complete lack of planning or consideration of the ramifications.

Finally, they never took privacy seriously, and I learned that the hard way during my onboarding in the first year they released. Suffice to say, I bowed out of the onboarding because of their lack of communication and lack of respect for user privacy.

Now he wants back in on Pebble since it got open sourced. He’s building another new company and telling people to join.

I’m sick of this asshole fucking failing upward and fucking everyone each time he does.

But yes, Mullenweg super sucks, too. So it was created by an asshat, ran by an asshat, and then sold to another asshat.

Telegram and Beeper are not awesome.

Both are run by total asshats.

Either that or Musk himself is truly so incompetent he thinks these kids are true geniuses. Honestly, with how things are going, that’s a fiddy-fiddy chance, because Musk is somehow almost as unbelievably stupid as Trump.

Initially, I didn’t think these kids were fall guys.

Now I think they’re fall guys.

The anti Rust bullshit is gonna kill Linux’s growth.

Lubuntu has always been solid for me for low spec machines.

With only 2 gb of RAM it will be slow, there is almost no avoiding that part.
