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.

Would you like to guess again?

Plan 9?

Redox OS?

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

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

Every fork is a derivative work, but not all derivatives are forks.

you’re obviously using novell netware.

c’mon, give us a hard one next time.

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!”

“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!

TempleOS?

Beat me to it 🤣

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.

It’s been a while since I’ve encountered a TempleOS user

Good lord, man
