Ad for a Webinar by Oracle on "Avoiding bad technology choices and vendor lock-in"
Lars Marowsky-Brée 😷@mfeilner They definitely are The Experts on what and whom to avoid.
🐧DaveNull🐧 ☣️pResident Evil☣@mfeilner Ah ha ha ha ha 🤣🤣🤣
Then don't buy oracle (among many others, of course). End on the webinar and thanks for coming!
IBBoard@mfeilner That's some good efficiency. Very much a "two birds with one stone" webinar!

@mfeilner there can only be one vendor
Bernd Petrovitsch🔴🔴🔴♂️🏳️🌈🇦🇹🇪🇺@mfeilner Oh the irony ...
Breadcentric@mfeilner hi Marcus, this is funny! Could you add captions to it for the benefit of visually impaired users?
Jindra Lacko@mfeilner the joke gets much better once you click on the (originally cropped) image!

I'll take not-reading-the-room for five billion, Alex.
Z O R A N G R B I C@mfeilner I guess that's how you get rich: no shame and a huge ego. 😁
Christos Argyropoulos MD, PhD@mfeilner stolen. This is just great
aquarius@mfeilner brought to you by http://bad.solutions themselves. You can’t make this up.

eviloatmeal, resident Death Stranding 2 apologist (arch, btw)
rahlzle dazle (Richard)@mfeilner oh how ironic.
But honestly it's pretty easy to do you just don't let management or the c-suite go see any shiny products

Eliminate child labor from your international supply chain
Karen Lopez 🌎👩💻🔒
Wenslauw@mfeilner brilliant!
John Allison@mfeilner I am having flashbacks of when Oracle threatened to sue us for sharing reports generated from an Oracle database.
Randahl Fink@mfeilner you mean the involuntary kind… 😀
Erik Uden => I don't get it

@mfeilner Is that a real post?
@kkarhan I have no idea if adobe ever did that.
-- I cant imagine they would --
I looked for the original, and all I found was @rmoff had posted that on Twitter long time ago. I found it in my notes yesterday. I'm interested in the source, too.

“Hey Siri… what's the definition of "ironic as fuck"?”
Nemo_bis 🌈@mfeilner @kkarhan @rmoff The source is in the comments.

The target is this lovely URL filled with tracking parameters. Maybe it was a rage honeypot to enrich the #Oracle #surveillance apparatus by making FLOSS and kubernetes enthusiasts click the link?

nope, it's legit https://twitter.com/OracleLinux/status/1585300240269250566 (with screencap in case it disappears)
HiFi@mfeilner I like the fact their CEO and Chairman are implicated in January 6th.
Stefan Scholl@mfeilner I’ll never forget the project that would have only needed a few text-files. We proposed PostgreSQL to make it a bit more professional and future-proof. Added IBM DB2 to the mix of suggestions as it would have fitted perfectly into the customer’s IT infrastructure in case they wanted to throw away money.
They demanded an Oracle database.

@mfeilner the lack of self-awareness in this photo is mind-boggling. Now I'm waiting for SAP to have a similar webinar.
Michael Gurski@mfeilner hails of derisive laughter, Bruce!
Ursidinoj/The Bjornsdottirs@mfeilner don't buy our shit
skottk@mfeilner We need a panel on this with representatives from IBM and SAP as well.
Bret@mfeilner that made me chuckle
whut@mfeilner Like Google offering privacy checkups
Take It EV Podcast 🎙️@mfeilner is “consider using PostgreSQL” on the list ?
Forgi @ TFF 
@mfeilner Peak comedy was seeing it cropped on mobile and then clicking to see the punchline (brand).
Emil Ivanec@mfeilner we hate lock-in if it is not ours
Carl Chapman@mfeilner Irony, thy name is Oracle
Andersson@mfeilner well they probably know how. It takes one to know one..
Lars Liedtke 🇪🇺@mfeilner ist this more Dunning-Kruger oder Streisand Effect?
Dave Lane 
🇳🇿@mfeilner the irony burns, but, of course, it'd go undetected in the US.
Irwin DeVries@mfeilner The Oracle speaketh…
Steve Foerster 🌐@mfeilner One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison?
basisbit 🦈🇪🇺🇺🇦 🔜 KnSt@mfeilner Leaked content of the presentation:
Step 1: stay away from Oracle.
Thats all. Thank you for attending my TED talk.
Ben Hayes@mfeilner oracle cloud is actually a pretty nice and cost effective competitor to aws
@benhayes and as problematic to your HA as any other software on somebody elses computers (aka Cloud). #venezuela
