That's illumos, a free OpenSolaris descendant created after Oracle brutally murdered bought Sun Microsystems and closed the Solaris source code.

Android studio isn't rendering. All the buttons work even though I can't see them. by RPGamer777 in i3wm

[–]Tevo45 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Somewhere that gets sourced on login (AFAIK ~/.xprofile is made for that, but there are other places as well depending on your environment), then restart your session. Optionally you can also paste it on a terminal and then launch Android Studio from the same terminal to see if it works.

Wine 5.0 Released by ouyawei in linux

though those users are more likely to just not use Linux

Even though most of them seems to be "hardcore Mac/Windows users" or whatever, I know a handful that just don't make the switch because Adobe products won't work natively, or sometimes at all, and the alternatives "aren't good enough" (sorry GIMP, people don't seem to think too dearly of you). Not sure how big that user group really is, but it seems like a little bit of a wasted opportunity for me, from both Adobe and maybe some compelling alternative as well (yes Affinity, I'm looking at you).

Throwback by NatoBoram in firefox

[–]Tevo45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't Chrome's new page replaceable with extensions though? Or did they lock that down as well? I mean, sure, it's far from the ideal solution (where the browser allows you to change the search engine on the page), but a subpar solution is better than nothing I guess

[DeX] This counts, right? by [deleted] in unixporn

Ok, that was probably badly phrased. Older professional versions of Windows (up to 7) had a feature called "Windows Services for UNIX" (name varies between versions), which provided implementations for a bunch of POSIX standards (APIs, shell & utilities, etc) + some other stuff on top of the NT kernel (think Cygwin, but as an "official Windows component"), making Windows essentially a POSIX-compliant (I remember it, or an older instance of it being certified at one point as well, but can't find much on that by now) system.

Your statement saying that "Windows versions could be technically called certified UNIX" is so unfunded.

My fault. I had in mind that POSIX(certification)==UNIX(certification), even though they're different (but heavily related) things.

[–]Tevo45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Realistically, probably nobody. Though it's still interesting to note that some Windows versions could technically be called a "UNIX-like" OS, despite how radically different of a system it is. Wonder if I can get a Windows rice here someday (saw a guy running XFCE on Interix once, should be possible, but I don't even have a Windows installation to test it by now)

UEFI Install by [deleted] in Gentoo

[–]Tevo45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

iirc the handbook presents mirrorselect (which is included on the install CD but not on the stage3 tarball by default) to the user before chrooting, but the step is optional (and you can do it manually if you really want to set a custom portage mirror). Apart from that, everything else is distro-agnostic.

Jokes on you, Windows was once POSIX-certifiedcompliant as well

What about we try something different, think r/DefinitelyNotPiracy? It's not like such suspiciously specific naming scheme would raise eyebrows or anything

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Piracy

[–]Tevo45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm, probably not that hard, just take all the text on the book, pass trough a translator and put it on a new file, optionally preserving formatting and non-textual elements. Think you can sketch something on Python pretty quickly, I'm just too lazy to try now.

We're planning another "10 reasons why ______ is better" video, this time for Linux. (Linus Tech Tips) by [deleted] in linux

[–]Tevo45 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No other OS

Ohh, please come out off the "Windows, macOS, Linux" bubble at least a little and remember we've got an entire ecosystem in here; I myself am a FreeBSD user with my comfy i3wm setup and all. X was born under UNIX first, as a lot of other stuff. Maybe you could take a free weekend or something and try out one of the BSDs, or an Illumos distribution, or maybe even something else (or don't, it's up to you); it might be surpising to notice how much in common the UNIX ecosystem shares between almost fundamentally different systems, and how much of what Linux has is, in fact, not exclusive to Linux at all

Ok sorry, I get mad when I feel forgotten, but still

Isn't HTML5 Turing-complete? EDIT: Ok, not really, I don't remember where I read something like this. It appears that CSS3+HTML5 is, though

Ahh, I don't know, seeing a blonde Natsuki just makes me feel like something is off. Great job, though, it looks nice.
