Hello and welcome to this edition of Hacker Public Radio.
|
|
My name is JWP and I'm on the internet if you type in JWP Linux, it will come up with
|
|
my little humble thing that I have for the Linux.
|
|
As you know that I try to do about one Hacker Public Radio episode per month.
|
|
I try to do it about something that I wouldn't normally talk about in my other podcast.
|
|
And what I really really want to talk about is the amount of whining in general that I've
|
|
heard about, according to 1104.
|
|
Okay now granted you know especially listen to you know Brian and Chris at the Linux Action Show
|
|
and godly I wish I could come up with something you know that high of quality and they gave
|
|
that much enjoyment to that many people but you know to listen to them whine about 1104 and
|
|
all of the things that you know you know I didn't do or didn't do and you know for you know
|
|
Ubuntu to take the step and say you know what we're going to give something as free
|
|
as in beer and as free as in freedom to every living person on this planet as an alternative
|
|
to what they have to pay on you know for windows or as an alternative for what they have to pay
|
|
to run a Mac it's pretty amazing you know and granted you know the unity thing I've been using
|
|
you know GNOME 2.24 for quite some time and yeah it's uncomfortable for me and when they move
|
|
the X's to the other side yeah I wasn't a big fan of that either but at the same time I wasn't
|
|
out there whining to someone who was giving me something for free right and you know I think that
|
|
you know if you really don't like it then you know that you know open susah
|
|
offers still a really really clean GNOME 2.24 if you want that you know simply Memphis also has a
|
|
pretty clean you know distribution if you know if you're not a KDE fan or just go slack with GNOME
|
|
you know you don't need to do all this this whining this whining about this you know
|
|
Linux Men is right there and you know I run Julia and I think it's a fan most fantastic thing
|
|
that I've ever seen but you know Ubuntu is you know pays the bills you know canonical is a
|
|
huge thing and you know because I because I work in the enterprise space I know that red that red
|
|
hat in and susah and the enterprise space are about to get some real heat from Oracle and their
|
|
open source products and with open source support so it's it's feasible that Ubuntu might be the
|
|
last band standing a canonical might actually be the last band standing so to criticize them
|
|
you know when they're saying hey we're gonna make something and it's for everybody right and
|
|
if it's not for you then to switch to that classical mode and do 2.24 in the classic mode it'll
|
|
be there for six months or stick on the LTS I mean to get it to do this concept whining and
|
|
I've seen so many people I mean even on the outlaws it was a little bit of whining and I think
|
|
and so I go was out there doing something on the floss weekly whining about this it's it's just
|
|
you know really really you'll want into the people that pay the bills right unless you're physically
|
|
contributing money every month to open source projects and you shouldn't be out there whining
|
|
about it you don't like it switch it's just the way that that goes all righty well I hope you
|
