I don’t look at Linsux very much, but I remember that before the new site design they used to have the new FreeBSD logo prominently. I particularly like the new logo with Open/Net/Free Daemons standing around the penguin.

I dug the BSD “sphere with horns” logo.

What difference does it make? They are both competent kernels.

BSD is more than a kernel.

The BSD kernel doesn’t deprecate crap at random?

Fine then run FreeBSD, who cares?

Hoppi, quit making a big deal about it then.

@Hoppi:

“What difference does it make? They are both competent kernels.”

Well, one has a development path that is run on a professional basis by upstream developers who know what they’re doing and delivered via a downstream mechanism that bundles its competent and well-tested kernel — on a “we’re pretty damn sure this is ready, guys” basis — with well-packaged and well-trusted applications.

The other one is provided by a bunch of flailing lunatics who can’t even agree on a default file-system or a proper package manager, and bundle it via random downstream fools who release sub-alpha product on a BiannualForcedDeathMarch™.

Guess which one is which.

@DrLoser

you hit the nail on the head
