Farmer Crack-rear end posted:is it iseries or z/os that will still run old system/360 programs that were written when we were still landing people on the moon? nasa technically used the system/4π, a system/360 derivative architecture specifically for defense / avionics. (it would be a funny product name if it wasn't countless millions of taxpayer dollars wasted) iseries and zseries are both compatible with hilariously old architectures eschaton posted:zSeries is System/z is a direct, compatible successor of System/360, System/370, and System/390 as/400 itself is "new," in the sense that it is full of wild 1990s ideas, but it is almost 100% compatible with s/36 and s/38, which are much older

mike12345 posted:is that still true that ubuntu is just a sid snapshot? that sounds a bit trash. yes every bit of that post from 2014 is still relevant, because canonical is poo poo and ubuntu will always be poo poo convenient that i never have to update the post to reflect subsequent improvement, since there's never any improvement

(it would be a funny product name if it wasn't countless millions of taxpayer dollars wasted) 4/pi's debut with NASA was aboard Skylab. the computer complex at Houston was driven by a pair of System/360s during the Apollo missions. IBM did the onboard computers for Gemini but not for the Apollo spacecraft

yeah, extremely overdramatic, rhel really barely needs even one desktop environment, and anything that is in rhel proper has very high support requirements. if you want kde on rhel in 2025 (when it is actually out of support cycle) i am sure you can find it in some other package repo
