@travisdh1 said in PalmOS Finally Going Open Source: @mlnews said in PalmOS Finally Going Open Source: Sort of. The last Palm OS, webOS, was supposed to go open source in 2012 under HP's stewardship. LG then bought the product and now, webOS is finally open source and available. It's still an ancient OS that probably no one wants to use, but it's the thought that counts. Oddly, LG still uses webOS in their products. I loved the Palm Treo4 that was my first smart phone. Nice for nostalgia sake at least. I had one of those.

@dustinb3403 said in Phoronix Publishes Windows vs. Linux Network Benchmarks: That is surprisingly disappointing. Server 2016 is supposedly the best thing ever. . . Of course it is, if you get paid to support it!

Improved PXE? Apparently I ordered the rpis we want a week early, good PXE would be a great thing here!

cute little bugger.

Would be pretty sweet to test something like SodiumSuite on this. Probably not good for the database, but could be really neat to see how the application front end would run there.

@black3dynamite said in GhostBSD 11.1 Released with MATE and Xfce: @scottalanmiller said in GhostBSD 11.1 Released with MATE and Xfce: My Xfce download is underway. What's GhostBSD default desktop environment? MATE and Xfce. Those are the only two that they make.

I hope some big names, like SuperMicro, take this seriously and get something in our hands soon. This would be perfect for two socket 1U servers or some tiny blade units (those SM deals with four blades in a 2U kind of thing.)

@dashrender said in CrossOver Wine Now on Chrome OS: @scottalanmiller said in CrossOver Wine Now on Chrome OS: Also, the article says that only 32bit Windows apps will run on Windows ARM, not real Windows apps. What's a real Windows app? Most people I know running local Office still run the 32 bit version. One that doesn't require emulation to run. Windows is 64 bit. It's a 64 OS. Apps for that OS.

Kind of interesting, handy to have a simple way to get real RHEL, I guess.

@black3dynamite said in Ubuntu 17.10 Released: @brandon220 said in Ubuntu 17.10 Released: @tim_g I thought about it but have never used one so I was hesitant to purchase even though they are "cheap". I would love to do daily driver stuff on Linux but every time I read on ML, I want to try a different OS. Seems as if there is a new favorite flavor every week....like Korora was for a while. Korora is nice but there distro releases is slow. You will always be one version behind Fedora. That's my biggest reason to stick with Fedora instead. Yeah, that killed it for a lot of us.

The Linux world is complex enough for normal users. BSD just pushed them that much farther over the edge.

@strongbad said in ARM RISC Linux Laptop Released from TERES-I: Of course, for that price and specs, you could just get a Chromebook and put Linux on it. Oh yeah, that makes more sense. LOL.

@scottalanmiller said in macOS 10.13 High Sierra Coming with APFS Filesystem: So for those using APFS, how is it looking now that you've had a few weeks with it? Nothing noticeably different.

@aaronstuder said in LXC 2.1 Containers Releases: @mlnews said in LXC 2.1 Containers Releases: Not an LTS release. But does it matter? It does if you are a person that wants LTS (e.g. you hate keeping your systems up to date) and like run Ubuntu LTS, and want to update LXC and this would cause an LTS conflict.
