Embrace, Embrace, and Run Over

Dumb punks
A Mark Zuckerberg reference



Satya Nadella, Novell, WSL



Summary: Microsoft's 'embrace' of Novell (and of Nokia among many other examples) seems to have taught nobody in the media what those Microsoft 'embraces' always lead to

A COUPLE of hours ago we saw H2S Media publishing yet more of that WSL nonsense. That site keeps pushing WSL advocacy, serving over 30 MB (yes, MEGABYTES) per page... for just a few poorly-written paragraphs. Do they realise WSL is an attack on GNU/Linux? They probably know that. Just watch who's behind WSL. See the warnings and the advocates.



"They want to get closer, sure, in order to 'move in'... for 'the kill'."There's no practical reason to use WSL. Those who were fooled into it would vastly better off (much better experience) with something like VirtualBox running any GNU/Linux distro of one's choice. We all know that, right? Better yet -- either install VirtualBox under GNU/Linux (for Windows to run in it) or install WINE for Windows-only applications. WSL serves no purpose at all, just like Novell's SUSE or decade or more in the past. Microsoft keeps setting up traps in which to drive us into extinction -- or so they hope. Stop giving Microsoft this leverage; it doesn't love GNU/Linux at all. These people love nothing but themselves and their cult. They want to get closer, sure, in order to 'move in'... for 'the kill'.
