  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.

    The fact that the OpenBSD logo has to include its name spelled out really tells you everything you need to know, doesn't it.

    I'm-a sorry FISH from unix_surrealism

    This pic goes hard

    Shouldn't it then be the Linux triplets? Linux, OpenBSD and macOS?

    [–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 114 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

    macOS is the bastard evil child given for adoption that no one in the family will ever acknowledge.

    [–] TootSweet@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    So Wario, then? Maybe that makes Android Waluigi.

    [–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 year ago

    I'd say it's more like Toad. Overly simplified, weirdly smooth and shiny.

    [–] lengau@midwest.social 5 points 1 year ago

    If macos is Wario, surely iOS is waluigi?

    [–] eatstorming@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    Also, macOS is derived from FreeBSD.

    [–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 46 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    It's derived from BSD 4.3, which predates and is one of the ancestors of FreeBSD

    [–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Parts of it are. The kernel is derived from a Mach microkernel (an experimental kernel in the 80s, which was theoretically supposed to allow different OS personalities to coexist in the same system, sharing resources; macOS’ Darwin/XNU kernel doesn’t implement this capability in full, but you do get the Mach Ports interprocess communication mechanism, and a BSD UNIX personality permanently attached).

    Yes, and the FreeBSD kernel is also derived from it, but they both formed out of that. One to form NeXT mach and the other Net, which forked to NetBSD and FreeBSD. But macOS Mach isn't derived from the FreeBSD fork.

    It's also the only desktop OS that's actually Unix. MacOS gets official Unix certification with every major release. All other "Unixy" OSes are just "Unix-like".

    [–] frezik@midwest.social 8 points 1 year ago

    Meh. It's a nice bragging right, but that's all it is at this point. Linux killed off almost all the old Unix vendors for a reason.

    That's the joke.

    [–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

    I know, it just seems like we're moving in the opposite direction of correctness.

    They can, and often do, use GNU tools and binaries underneath.

    [–] pimeys@lemmy.nauk.io 20 points 1 year ago

    But do not run Linux, the kernel.

    [–] Laser@feddit.org 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Really? They might use some GNU programs, but I'm sure the default user land for OpenBSD is all theirs. Just because you know cp etc. as GNU utils doesn't mean the BSDs use the same ones. They are just part of the operating system. https://github.com/dcantrell/bsdutils tried to collect various BSD implementations for example

    Or as I've started to call it, GNU minus Linix

    [–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

    That's the joke.

    [–] neidu2@feddit.nl 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I for one prefer demon linux over fish linux. In fact, that's how I first dipped my toes into the world of unix-ish OSes with FreeBSD 3.3.

    [–] HakFoo@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I always figured BSD should lean into the daemon imagery with a full heavy-metal branding: a suite of wallpapers with decidedly less cuddly daemons, a succubus OS-tan character... make it the go-to Edgelord Desktop.

    Then FreeBSD introduced that stupid sphere logo. No sense of branding. :P

    [–] Valmond@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

    BDSM BSD FTW!

    [–] richardisaguy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

    freeBSD is satan linux

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    A FreeBSD fork focused on security.

    [–] 3w0@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    It's actually split from NetBSD. The code diverged when Theo got kicked out.

    [–] Mechaguana@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

    Should have been named fishball instead of B-something

    Cutefish OS wants to know your location
