The one that's put out when Elon buys the Linux Foundation.

[-] communist@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 11 points 3 hours ago

Manjaro, easy choice.

Ironically it's probably Suckless.

Red Star anybody?

[-] Goldmage263@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 hours ago

There was a Windows tablet I bought for PDFs only. It ran some terrible Windows 8 lite version. That would easily be the worst Linux distro.

Windows RT. What a pile.

It'll randomly doze off whenever you don't look at it for 5 seconds, tho.

[-] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 25 points 13 hours ago

Damn I really can't argue with that. The developer is a prick

[-] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

Can someone seriously type with their penis? Impressive!

[-] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 hours ago

When you watch it's really not that impressive.

"I use Arch btw"

[-] droans@midwest.social 60 points 16 hours ago

Apparently it's Athena Linux. At least, that's what the hackable vacuums use.

[-] serenissi@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

most honest privacy policy.

[-] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

Is there even a place on the website that asks for that information?

[-] nailbar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 6 hours ago

Well now I'm even more conflicted about sending them my email!

Our roborock robot vacuum runs Ubuntu (I'm not joking)

[-] frezik@midwest.social 21 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Windows running WSL running a VM running Debian 2.2.

Oracle linux, just tell them your carpet has an unlicensed database.

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 66 points 20 hours ago

I was invited to a user group where oracle Linux was trying to get more adopters. The coolest thing they had was the ability to update a kernel driver while it was running. In place. Without downtime.

I asked them if they planned on pushing this improvement to the kernel devs and they just gave me a blank face.

Told me everything I needed to know about Oracle Linux. I promptly formatted the thumb drive they gave me for free.

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 6 hours ago

All of our testing cells at work run Oracle!
I don't know much about it though.

[-] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 15 points 18 hours ago

If they released it for free then Ubuntu wouldn't have Ubuntu Pro to sell subscriptions to.

... My vacuum actually does run Linux.

!It's a roborock with Valetudo installed so it doesn't need internet access!<

[-] TrenchcoatFullofBats@belfry.rip 16 points 17 hours ago

There are dozens of us! Mine is a Dreame D9 with a custom GLaDOS voice pack that I can change by updating a CVS file.

the one you, the reader, uses

[-] yonder@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 hours ago

Ironically, I'm reading this from PostmarketOS, which has support for the echo dot 2, feature phones and some smartwatches, so it might be realistic to run on a vacum lol.

[-] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 21 points 19 hours ago

Now this turned meta-referencial really quick.

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 82 points 22 hours ago

All of them except Hannah Montana Linux, which is the One True Linux.

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 40 points 22 hours ago

TempleOS is the one TRUE OS

[-] ebolapie@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

TempleOS is God's chosen OS, but I don't live at church. I use TempleOS to pray, and Hannah Montana Linux for personal tasks. That way I get the best of both worlds.

[-] andros_rex@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

But it isn’t Linux.

Manjaro might be good, but you'll have to adjust the vacuum's clock every time you want to clean

[-] logos@sh.itjust.works 46 points 22 hours ago

Installing on my fridge. Which one is the coolest?

[-] CarbonBasedNPU@lemm.ee 3 points 12 hours ago

Void has a really badass name.

RHEL because the best Linux is the one you pay for.

I have some RedHat CDs from the late 1990s (probably collectible at this point). I remember having a great deal of difficulty mounting my particular cd rom to even install it. I never got a driver for my video card at the time to work, so the "graphics" were awful (640x480 text only, iirc).

Anyway, few experiences will be more frustrating than trying to use them. I think it should be mandatory for aspiring computer people to play with them, so they can appreciate how far we have come.
