>not using HURD kernel
what's wrong with you?
I want a functional computer.
>>54497229
Is it just missing drivers? Why can't devs just copy paste the drivers from Linux over to Hurd and build some sort of abstraction layer like WINE?

>HURD still on development without a stable version
no thanks

>why don't devs spend an enormous amount of time to do something for literally no reason
Hurd has SOUND now guys, why don't you use it?

I don't want anything GNU on my computer.
>>54497229
enjoy your debugging hell; monolithic kernels are easier to debug
>>54497373
But microkernels are the future
>>54497352
2017 will be the year of HURD!
>>54497320

This.
Do they even have a functional .iso?
>>54497531
You can get Debian Hurd
>>54497582
That looks like poop.
I hate GNU and the FSF. I use linux cause it has a lot of programs, not because I love GNU.

Ahhahahahhhhh

Windows has more programs, though.
>>54497595
Well, it was 4 years ago
>>54497611
I don't play games
>>54497612
I dislike Microsoft more than I dislike GNU and the FSF.
I used to be a Hurd developer back in ~2004-7. Embarrassed of that time.

maybe you should

>>54497229
Why is HURD still utter trash if Micro Kernels are "so much better"?
>>54497633
So, you use Linux because you like GNU and the FSF more than you like Microsoft, not because it has more programs.
>>54497723
That's because of the microkernel Mach's IPC system.

>using a kernel that has been broken for what? 25 years?
Thats not a simple bug m8, thats a conception mistake.
>>54497633
How do you feel about the EFF?
>>54497751
It has more programs than BSD and has more distros that install quickly and I can start doing what I need to do faster if I get a new PC. So yes, I use linux because it has more programs.

They provide a nice service to a lot of people like hiring lawyers for people that are getting fucked by the man.
