Development tools. Maybe when .NET becomes a viable open source framework I'll use Linux as my main OS.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Because I don't care how I get my porn.

Settle down there, Richie.

program compatibility

UDK for linux is ok, but i cant run a lot of my preferred modelling / scripting environments

I knew there'd be one of you fucks that are overly concerned with names.

GTA5

Gentoo KVM Hypervisor. It may as well be bare-metal speeds for the guests. Use ZFS to back the guest image stores so I can do filesystem-level atomic rollbacks/clones and replication of new VMs in addition to filesystem-level data dedup.

The ZFS data dedup alongside kernel samepage mapping means I can run 15 VMs in the same storage and memory space of 5 VMs in Hyper-V or VCloud/ESXI.

I haven't bothered to set mine up uet.>

so then what are the practical reasons for using linux?

Linux is shit for home entertainment :\
In my case, I have a Windows rig at home and use linux or mac professionally (depending the company I'm working for).

Mac OS/Windows 10.

We have the technology.

OpenBSD master race,
Linux is way to mainstream

>What has stopped you from not using Linux?
The idea of using a laggy spyware was too sad, it stopped me from not using linux.
Windows 7 / Debian currently

I'm. Currently on with ubuntu, but fuck me it's a right pain to dive right into

Op back, I'm on Ubuntu. For the simple reason it's free open source software that doesn't tell me what to do all the time.

It's easy to start with mint.

Yes, I watched that documentary, too.

Copypasta from Wikipedia

Windows.
I am an adult that needs to be productive.

Ubuntu still uses proprietary software, get on
Trisquel. It's a stripped down Ubuntu.

W10 but actually trying to add Kali and other Linux system for differents purposes.

I'm actually stuck cuz my pc doesn't recognize my USB key when i try to launch Kali live on it from BIOS...

Did you make it bootable..? Or did you just slap the ISO on there?
