Looks good. I have ubuntu on a VM.

Windows has no place among us anymore.

as if anybody actually likes their lagdroid. they get them because theyre cheap not because they want to get them
>>45831155
When I install Android on my VM, it thinks it is FreeBSD. Also, Chrome OS Linux is not available for installations to any PC. What is going on?

lagdroid is a fucking abortion of an OS running on linux kernel

It will never be the year of the Linux desktop. You act like Linux is some kind of victory for freedumbs and open-source software. It's not. And that's why it's better.
>>45833297
It's still Linux you dumb fuck
>>45833303
Wow, yay, what a big victory for Linux, woooo.
Reminder that android is as much linux as ios
>>45833303
but it's not GNU + Linux
>>45833297
>And that's why it's better.
no, it's why it's shit like all other smartphones.
Is it possible to run whatever Android uses for network managing on Linux?
It works so much better than the NetworkManager crap.
>>45833323
Well yeah, it kind of is. Google chose not to make their own kernel and used Linux instead, and the end product was hugely popular.
>>45833346
Android is as much Linux as Debian or Gentoo are Linux, it literally runs on Linux, the kernel. OSX does not run on Linux. OSX is not Linux.
>>45833373
It's not GNU/Linux, it's Android/Linux
>>45833395
Fuck meant to write iOS. Point still stands though.
>>45833395
Android really isn't even Linux anymore
it's a shitty 2.6 port of Linux
>>45833451
It still uses the kernel.
>>45833451
>>45831253
ya it is. its called chromium os
>>45832294
without linux android doesnt exist. without android linux exists.

No thanks
>>45833708
Aw man, that's depressing.
As a was-android-user-for-last-5-years I still think WP is much better.
Android is living, breathing proof that GNU is holding Linux back.
>>45833753
That's because you haven't yet installed Ubuntu Touch. Only then can you become somebody.
>>45833669
>without linux android doesnt exist
Pretty sure the point of JVM is that you don't give a fuck about the kernel et al.
>>45831155
Android is shit, so who cares?
>>45833765
Ubuntu Touch is not even available for any real devices yet, that makes it obselete.
Besides, it's fucking Ubuntu.
I'd rather get a hacky install of Arch on a phone.
If it only could support calls and texting.
>>45833754
Maybe Linux should be held back. Unix was a joke of an OS, and so is everything that came out of it.
>>45831155
And that statement is still true. Gahnoo Loonicks will never, EVER reach mainstream status. Never.
Keep trying to take what people say out of context, though.
>>45833798
So anything that runs OS X/iOS/Android is a joke?
>>45833838
Exactly.
>>45833857
Millions of people seem to disagree with you, you know.
>>45833883
I don't care, because I know I'm right.
>>45833786
Look up what obsolete means.
>>45831155
Why do people want Linux to get popular?
That can only mean bad things for Linux, it should stay small.
>>45833451
lolno
There were some struggs early on where things couldn't be backported but those have been worked out. Now there's just issues with no good open source drivers for cellphone hardware. Binary blobs only :(
>>45831155
I'd rather use WP though, than be part of the botnet
>>45834039
(WP is also botnet)
>>45833991
the advantage that popularity brings is that more people develop for it.
I am not saying that it isn't going to be shitty programs like on android but people constantly complain about a single program that doesn't work on linux.
I like that I don't have to dualboot just to watch netflix anymore.
>>45833991
Because Linux users are hypocrites.
>>45833883
millions of people are also mentally challenged
statistics can be interpreted differently faggot
>>45834059
But bad things like GTK3 happen too.
I think its best to not go any further.
Im not saying we stop developing Linux, just don't get it so popular.
>>45831155
>>lunix will never get to the mainstream market - They said
It still isn't. Nobody with an Android phone knows/cares that it's Linux any more than they care that their wireless router/whatever runs Linux.
Besides, apart from Samsung's top-of-the-line phones none of them are profitable,
>>45834114
Linux is on the mainstream market you faggot. Its just GNU+Linux is not. The point is that is linux were to suddenly be removed, many people would care
>>45834085
Gotta keep my virgin club a secret right?
>>45834053
it's definitely less of a botnet though
>>45833991
>oh please let me keep my secret club
>>45834154
>The point is that is linux were to suddenly be removed, many people would care
but that's wrong faggot, you think Google's engineering team won't have the power to rework their indian slapped together code for a different kernel?
nigra please, linux is not irreplaceable, it's cheap and that was and will be the drawing point.
If it wasn't for google's cash defending all the patents freetards have crossed all over in their infinite ignorance, then linux would have been long time dead. Like BSD.

Microsoft is sueing the united states to save their customers data, google is widely known as selling their customers data, if you trust google more you are pretty dumb.

>lunix will never get to the mainstream market - They said
There's a reason they call it a MARKET. There is no market in a sea of Linux servers whose only purpose is to run Apache. Also a handful of neckbeards who only use free software so you dug your own grave there.
>>45833297
What does ANY of this have to do with a kernel, dumbfuck?
