You couldn't run ASP.NET in Linux back then, so you had to pay for a Windows license, too.

The reason that most distributions only packaged Java 11 until recently is actually very simple: it was the current "LTS" version, which had a longer support window. So companies won't usually jump into Java 12, or 13... beca

I haven't used Fedora since 2015 or so, but at the time, I always felt DNF to be very slow or heavyweight. For example, I remember installing one random small package with few or no dependency installs at all could take something betwe

So this system would serve two purposes and not just one.

Yes, I checked some weeks ago and v.16 was the last one, so I guess it was too soon. However, you don't need a special repo for getting OpenJDK 17. Yours is for getting Oracle JDK 17, right?

Last time I checked, at least in Ubuntu 20.04, there was already a package for OpenJDK 17, so I think that's the straightforward and recommended way to get Java 17 in Ubuntu.

Can't they just say the code was randomly generated by Copilot so copyright and stuff like that doesn't apply?

I haven't found a way, although I never had the need. I remember you could compile your software targeting a specific LSB release, and there were some tools to do that, but I don't know if it would be the same.

Because nothing happens when you spy on your satellite states. 40 years ago people said it was wrong to have Soviet satellite states in Europe, and they seemed right. Only that they just meant the "Soviet" part of the sentence.

I remember you could decide which glibc version, for some specific symbol, you wanted to use. For example, if you wanted to make your program use the "realpath" version from glibc 2.0, instead of the current one, you could do some

I dislike snaps too, but when I used Fedora for a couple of years (around version 25), I didn't like dnf a lot either. It felt very slow in comparison to apt, and also, it was just another new command to learn, after yum et al. In cont

This looks like western propaganda to make us think that it's better to just keep the US wiretapping our networks, as always.

I know, I just wanted to point out that you cannot use OpenJDK and at the same time not use anything from Oracle.
322.
by severino 6y ago
You can use AdoptOpenJDK or Azul or whatever, but you will be using code largely from Oracle. I don't think there is any problem with that, but the OP said "never touch anything from Oracle".

by severino 6y ago
> Use OpenJDK! Never touch anything from Oracle. But OpenJDK is Oracle's. They are the primary contributors to the project, and they really made it 100% open-source.
