This is real. And you can have your own fake activation watermark here.
- It’a surprisingly detailed installation description 🤔
  
  Joke project gets bonsai treatment, production gets one comment in docker compose.
- Actual question. Isn't installing stuff from third party repos like super dangerous? The package scripts run with root access, right?
  
  So, I guess you could tell if the hash of the package matches the hash of the code after you build it... But, what about upgrades on that package after it is installed? They could change the setup scripts and screw a lot of people right?
  
  Not saying these guys do it, just wondering about security stuff.
  
  quote stolen directly from the repo:
  
  "Science isn't about WHY. It's about WHY NOT. Why is so much of our science dangerous? Why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you on the butt on the way out, because you are fired." — Cave Johnson (Portal 2)
  
  ideally package build scripts should be checked each update (although i am personally too lazy to)
This must be the new version of Fedora
- Wait, did they mess with fedora, too?
  
  No.
- It's a shame that Fedora is also the most usable linux desktop distro
Red Hat edition?
- It's a bit more than $15 for RHEL
- That's exactly why we need to give them the boot.
  
  That's exactly why we need to give them the boot.
  
  Hard disagree. If you're running something business-critical, the support that you get with a RHEL license {or any other vendor, for that matter) is worth its weight in gold.
  
  If you can't fix something, you don't want to be looking for solutions by sifting through forum posts directed at home users when the business is losing thousands of dollars per hour. That's what the license is for, and that's what you pay for.

Even after paying, windows sells our info, every keystroke.
- Any proof? Kinda seems like major privacy violation if it sold our keystrokes like that.
  
  Cortana enhanced program, enhanced tipe writing, voice recognition. Maybe they don't sell it directly, but the register every move.
- Is it really that bad? I haven't used it in years so I'm not following it. Do they literally have a built-in keylogger?
  
  Definitely not, that would be an absurd privacy violation
  
  Think about it practically. Microsoft is not an advertising company, they make their money from enterprise software. Windows is installed on billions of computers. The infrastructure required to accept and process every single key pressed by every single windows user and turn it into something usable would be enormous. And for what? To make a few extra millions by selling it to some advertising company?
The right license in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. So, wake up, Mister Torvalds. Wake up and... smell the ashes...
I'll wait for Linux Millennium Edition to come out first
- More like Linux Year of The Desktop Edition
- I heard it is buggy, I think I'll wait for Linux Vista to be released.
The bad ending.
paybuntu when
- Pay 2 Win(dows)
I'll give it about tree fiddy
- God Dammit Loch Ness Monster, I ain't gonna give you no tree fiddy.
Is anyone have oem keys, just asking.
It's ok. I have the crack.
- Good, but what does it have to do with Linux
FXLinux?
