You do realize that there are more than just "coders" that work at Facebook, right?

We use it for SAP HANA. They're the preferred distribution for SAP HANA in Azure. Kinda niche, sure, but if you're in that space, it's huge $$. I first used myself SUSE back in the 5.2 days when it was SuSE. Stuck with them as a desktop OS for a while, eventually moving to Ubuntu about 12 years ago.

I was able to set up my WRT3200 without having to create a cloud account. I can even use the app on my phone. It doesn't work outside of my house, but it works totally fine without cloud integration

I have a Precision Mobile 5510 that I bought about a year and a half ago that originally came with Windows on it (was an open box). They offered Ubuntu 16.04 as an option when bought new. I immediately wiped it and began using Ubuntu on it. I'm currently running 19.04 and hardware support (touchscreen, nvidia prime graphics, wireless, etc...) is flawless. Probably the only negative is the battery life. It is noticeably not as good as on Windows. I get firmware updates through apt from Dell, too.

Honestly, what's the point of this over the already free Ubuntu shell that you can get in the store? I use that every day on my work computer running Win10 and I have all the terminal goodness I need. I can grab almost anything I need via apt and can even run graphical programs if I kick off an xserver inside WIn10.

probably just to sprinkle them around, like your apostrophe's.

You can do it yourself by setting up your own internal CA and trusting the root certificate on your test machines. It's totally free and included in Windows Server.

Um yea, I don't see ANY potential problems by altering someone's genetics to remove fear. This reads like a bad sci-fi movie plot.

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y There you go. Single line.

RTFA. This phone is not designed to be sold to the general public. It is designed for specific security sensitive applications and use by government agencies.

Except that you are free to update to the newest version of Ubuntu if you wish. 12.04 LTS runs just fine on any machine that I've run 10.04 on.

Try installing SharePoint on Server 2012 core. The OS components required aren't there unless you install the full GUI (even for a scripted install). Yes, you can temporarily add, then remove them afterwards, but it's still a hack.

Please re-read the top of this page. NON-LTS is 9 months. LTS support is the same as it's been.

Man, those birthers will do just about anything to show Obama wasn't born in the US. Did someone catch Donald Trump tossing shovels of sand into the ocean on the backside of the island?

what about the Mac Cube?
