Where is this train going? To Distroland? 🤔

#linux

@itsfoss bleeding edge kernels 🙂
@itsfoss
But hey, at least its Linux. In Germany you'll see win xp error screens. 🤷‍♂️
@pebo @itsfoss windows 10 had been out for 3 years already when i saw the local supermarket use windows 3.1 for its cash registers🥴
@itsfoss Obviously the next station is Ubuntu on track /dev/sda3 🤷 However I heard they are already working on stations/tracks with UUIDs... for more clarity😎 🚋
@itsfoss If you put it in Recovery mode, you can drive the train.
@jws Now that would be interesting. 😮
@itsfoss it's going to Ubuntu with linux
@itsfoss hello mum, don't mean to worry you, but my train's crashed
@itsfoss This is so much better than the #bsod or #windowsupdate screen we're usually presented with when digital signage fails
@itsfoss more like the past based on the kernel
@itsfoss
Meanwhile other trains are contemplating being more open to sharing things...
@itsfoss this train is running behind schedule updates.
@itsfoss ooh, Ubuntu 18.04, not too far out of date for a municipal kiosk system!
@itsfoss Next stop EOLville to see the ancient ruins of Kernel 4
@itsfoss I’ve only ever seen windows error messages in this context, i feel like this is a good turn of events that it’s linux 🙂
@itsfoss It has been broken by the cognitive dissonance of supporting capitalist advertising, obvs
@itsfoss why i use nixos haha /j

@pjakobs That's so cool!
@itsfoss isn't it. I had a good laugh when I first came through there.
@itsfoss btw, and I am not kidding, not far of is a station called "Poing" - I wish it didn't have the "o" there
@itsfoss Well, it's clearly not a post for #FensterFreitag :)
@itsfoss Is it actually a screen or an ad made to look like that?
@malwareminigun This appears to be in a car in the NYC subway, and those screens are relatively new (2-3 years?) so yeah... running Ubuntu with a 4.15 kernel is about right for a government-contracted system.
@itsfoss Damm near every time I walk by a bitcoin ATM it's showing a BSOD
@LoveHasW1 @itsfoss I once saw the trippy opengl screensaver from Windows on an ATM. Pressing the keypad woke it up.
@itsfoss As long as it is not going to /dev/null
@itsfoss You're on the distrotube
@itsfoss I hope distroland has more than just #Ubuntu though!

@itsfoss Running Ubuntu 18.04 with the last Kernel update in applied '21?

I hope it's not connected to anything!
