Rationale to use Linux
=======================
- I can't afford paying for $199 for the license of an OS that's

forever happy. You can call yourself Chief Software Architect. You
don't have to sign NDA. It's called freedom. GNU Public License.

The war of the OSes was won a long time ago.
Unix has always been, and will continue to be, the Server OS in the form

Jargons of Info Tech industry
(A Love of Jargons)
Xah Lee, 2002 Feb
People in the computing field like to spur the use of spurious jargons.
The less educated they are, the more they like extraneous jargons, such
as in the Unix & Perl community. Unlike mathematicians, where in
mathematics there are no fewer jargons but each and every one are

need to see what will these fork() and exec() do. So, can anyone tell
me which flavour of linux i should use, some say that Debian is more
programmer friendly, or shold i use fedora, or Solaris. Because these
three are the only ones i know of that are popular and free.

- TCP/IP stack comes from OpenSource BSD. Can't deny that, huh?
- XUL (where Microsoft stole XAML from): OpenSource Mozilla
- Being free and evolve rapidly, isn't that a major innovation to the
business model?
- Mosaic, first browsers were developed as OpenSource.
- Linux is bootable from memory sticks, SD cards, there're LiveCDs

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
