Make commandline great again.

It's always been and will always be only C++. No other shit. Some conspiracists say C# and C are used for some things but that's just theories. And there's also people trying to make their own and trying so hard to make Python and Java, or JS for example popular but no way it's ever going to work or be used by anyone.

Did anyone else notice the small detail at 5:23? It’s so cool!

that girl is so cute

I've noticed some Linux distros like to be as sketchy as Windows if you read the fine print some of them collect your data which isn't good it's better to learn how to install Arch Linux as quickly as possible to claim your freedom they can say Linux Mint but type in on OneSearch about their privacy policy and notice how wrong you are Linux Mint has a darker side.

Never knew Manoj Bajpayee is into Tech.

I couldn't agree more.

The reason is: market manipulation and monopolies.

Only C is worthy of applause!

Probably the only person in the world who calls Linux "GNU slash Linux".

I think Debian's installation has gotten easier over the years since the release of this video so maybe his opinion would change who knows.

davis was right

Fedora 🤍🩵

What?! He is the founder of Linux! And i think it's more dificult to programming an entire OS than install Debian. 😆

it's not a backdoor, it's a back orifice

MIS?

This could be easily fixed as if everyone in those companies take a stance like Apple did

I understood nothing but "OpenBSD was right".

live your life rms without the financial sustain of mit.

hes absolutely correct. rms is ruining computing

I have attempted to use Linux as my main driver for so many times, and here's my conclusion: If you want a simple system that gives you enough aesthetics as well as functions, LINUX, for that is TRUSH! Love me or hate me, I have spent no less than a hundred hours trying EVERYTHING I could, but their UI has way too many bugs for me to consider it.

Open office sucks ass

It's a beautiful life you've had Linus. Kudos to you.

Stallman is an idiot.

chromebook sucks. I do not want walled garden BS.

I don’t think I share all his views but he’s dead on that companies take the piss in terms of invasiveness with their software. And people take it.

Like Bill Gates secretly love Mac, Linus is a huge BSD fan. 🙂

I 100% agree with Linus. Debian is a pain in the ass & the Debian community is just as bad as the Arch community. It's quite strange because aside from Debian, the Debian/Ubuntu family is the most user friendly distro family. That's why people who want to try Linux often start with Ubuntu or Mint. I understand why he wouldn't want to use Ubuntu. I don't want to use Ubuntu. It's a company owned distro.

Linus gives tech tips, he doesn't use Linux

This guy is such an ideologue it’s painful……… I do get it though……. 🤷‍♂️

The creator of Linux doesn't even like to tweak things but rather get on with his life.

It's all fake. He should be able to see that by now.

I like how the recent comments talking shit about the video don't realize that this is 11 years ago

Your God Might (1%) - Chance of Hacking Program Windows. Kernel Kesaria is a Ninja. He Can Detect Rogue Programs in the Matrix and Send them to the Machine Mainframe for Termination.

How You Gonna Hack Kernel Kesaria. The Process Scheduler and Memory Manager is in The CPU Cache. My Device Manager - IO.Sys, Is SIGNED Loaded (Strong Encryption). The Whole of the Operating System! My Programmers API - MSDOS.Sys - We'll I'm the Sole User of that. I've Got the Whole of the Operating System to Myself. Kernel Kesaria is 6 Megabytes. Program Windows is 1 Gigabyte.

Then Show Me Your Face

Hack Kernel Kesaria. Your Chance = 0.1% (Kernel). Program Windows = 1 %

Linus is a class act. Love this dude

Then install Windows

I get goosebumps whenever I listen to this guy

main problem is package managers. I don't want "sht store" on PC. I just want doubleclick on .exe file.

This is the guy who thinks the language "master and slave" and "blacklist" in computing is racist. Just because you programmed an operating system doesn't mean you can't be a complete and total idiot.

Ha ha, he voted for senile Joe, the country's biggest bug.

Respect IS earned, the fact that it's considered polite to pretend to respect everybody even if in reality you don't, doesn't change that.

At 24 min when they start to talk about diversity, dates the video. In the future you'll know, diversity?? Oh right the craze in the early 2020s.

Because of fragmentation. Android is more successful than any desktop Linux has ever been. ChromeOS is also more successful. Both are actually Linux systems, but there is no fragmentation. There's a Windows, a macOS, an iOS, an Android, a ChromeOS, but there are hundreds of different desktop Linux distributions, and that's the problem. Sure, you might say, so are two dozen car manufacturers, each with different models, some of them over 50, so what's the deal? The big deal is that you can drive any of these cars in less than a day because they are not all fundamentally different. But there is almost nothing that Linux desktop distributions can agree on. Name one thing you think they all have in common, and I will show you examples of distributions that do not.

We don't use Windows either but that's because we all use Macs, not because we use Linux. The reason why Linux will never be successful as a desktop operating system is because there is no such thing a Linux system. There are plenty of Linux based systems, those are systems that combine the Linux kernel with some user space libraries and tools, with varying level of compatibility, that follow different paradigms and are designed in different ways. See, there is only one Windows. There is only one macOS. There even is only one Android. Sure, all of these systems exist in different versions but if you only go for the latest version, there's always just one and it always works the same and is always compatible to itself. But with Linux, you have Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Fedora, CentOS, openSuSE, Arch, Alpine, RHEL, Slachware, and 200+ others I'm not going to list here and each of those is a system of its own. It may be based upon another one, it may be anywhere from 80 to 99% compatible with another one but there simply is no such thing as Linux system. And all those distributions cannot even agree on a software packet format (rpm, deb, pkg, tar, ...), on a service launcher (init.d, systemd, OpenRC, ...), on a graphical backend (X11, Wayland, ...), on a desktop environment (GNOME, KDE, MATE, XFCE, ...), on a file system (ext4, btrfs, zfs, ...), and so on. It is that fragmentation that is killing Linux. The most successful Linux is in fact Android, that uses nothing but the Linux kernel and everything else is different to all wide spread distributions but it isn't fragmented! As a developer, I can pick a certain version of Windows, macOS (iOS), or Android, develop my app for it and it will run on that version and all later versions still compatible to it and I have a huge market and a huge level of compatibility. I cannot do that with Linux other than Android. It already starts with "How do I make a UI?" Do I use GTK or Qt or Xlib or draw to image buffers with cairo? It creates dependencies to libraries people may not want on their system (I don't want Qt on a GTK based system), it won't look native (GTK apps look ugly on KDE because it is a Qt desktop). And if you thing at least you don't have to worry about X11 or Wayland, well, you have, as even the font rendering won't be the same, as with X11, the Xserver renders the fonts, with Wayland, the UI library (GTK, Qt, ...) has to do it and you don't even know how they are doing it and what library they do. So I cannot even know what my fonts will look like on the final system and yes, there are differences and yes, there are plenty of apps where this does matter and that need to implement their own font rendering for Linux, which is absurd!

Why am I getting video suggestions from 10 years ago on CZcams?

Why does the thumbnail look like linus is being interviewed in police custody 😂

why would anyone use windows after you used GNU/Linux and got comfortable with it.
