I’m proficient and comfortable enough on any OS. I own no systems currently running Windows. And I don’t really care for Apple. And I’m not currently running BSD or Unix.
That brings back a memory. I got banned from the computers in highschool because I sent a message to everyone on the network using netware. They called me a hacker. It’s literally just clicking the system tray icon and go into like send message… The message? “Hello World!”
I did something similar. Didn’t get me banned but got me inducted into the student sysadmin group instead.
My highschool generally had one kid a year who did something notable enough to become an apprentice to the IT closet wizard. The hazing ritual was to deal with the fallout: respond to all the helpdesk tickets for ‘weird message on screen’ or ‘I can’t print’, etc, and then listen to the older apprentices tell their tale.
Heavily inspired by? I understand that Linux is not derived from Unix source code. But the system architecture… Is extremely similar and in many ways functionally the same.
In art, music, literature, architecture, and ideas, something can be derivative because it inherits a form, vocabulary, conventions, conceptual framework, or design tradition from something earlier.
Yeah but in this case it’s called a “unix-like system” it’s derivated if Linus copied or studied Unix code which i don’t think(correct me if i am wrong) happened

Would you like to guess again?
It’s been a while since I’ve encountered a TempleOS user
TempleOS?
Beat me to it 🤣
you’re obviously using novell netware.
c’mon, give us a hard one next time.

“Hack the planet!”
I swear I’ve seen either Zero Cool or Acid Burn around here somewhere.
“Said hello to 1,507 systems at once… front page of the New York Times!”
Well at least you didn’t hack a Gibson
OS/2, surely. Or maybe BeOS?
BeOS? Oh dear, no.
I could see running Haiku.
Just kidding, no way!
Didn’t say “I’m not currently running Apple”, just said “I don’t really care for Apple”, therefore you may be using Apple, without caring for it.
Phone runs Android. I used to work as an Applecare Advisor supporting iOS and OS X.
Guix! … does guix count as a unix derivative?
I do suppose Linux is a Unix derivative. So you’re closest. But no cigar.
Linux is like Unix but not derivate

Every fork is a derivative work, but not all derivatives are forks.
Plan 9?
Redox OS?
