I'm proficient and comfortable enough on any OS. I own no systems currently running Windows. And I don't really care for Apple. And I'm not currently running BSD or Unix.

Would you like to guess again?

It’s been a while since I’ve encountered a TempleOS user

TempleOS?

[-] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 1 points 4 hours ago

Didn't say "I'm not currently running Apple", just said "I don't really care for Apple", therefore you may be using Apple, without caring for it.

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 2 points 4 hours ago

Phone runs Android. I used to work as an Applecare Advisor supporting iOS and OS X.

[-] SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 hours ago

OS/2, surely. Or maybe BeOS?

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

BeOS? Oh dear, no.

I could see running Haiku.

Just kidding, no way!

you're obviously using novell netware.

c'mon, give us a hard one next time.

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 4 points 7 hours ago

That brings back a memory. I got banned from the computers in highschool because I sent a message to everyone on the network using netware. They called me a hacker. It's literally just clicking the system tray icon and go into like send message... The message? "Hello World!"

Guix! … does guix count as a unix derivative?

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 1 points 6 hours ago

I do suppose Linux is a Unix derivative. So you're closest. But no cigar.

[-] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 5 hours ago

Linux is like Unix but not derivate

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 1 points 5 hours ago

Heavily inspired by? I understand that Linux is not derived from Unix source code. But the system architecture... Is extremely similar and in many ways functionally the same.

In art, music, literature, architecture, and ideas, something can be derivative because it inherits a form, vocabulary, conventions, conceptual framework, or design tradition from something earlier.

[-] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 points 3 hours ago

Yeah but in this case it's called a "unix-like system" it's derivated if Linus copied or studied Unix code which i don't think(correct me if i am wrong) happened

[-] Pennywise@quokk.au 1 points 3 hours ago

Every fork is a derivative work, but not all derivatives are forks.
