Today I told my boss to move from windows server to Linux Based Server.

Boss: Linux Server is used for small and light projects only.
.
Me: 😠🔫

The only time I've seen people legit use windows for a server is as a local network only file server...

@lxmcf Yup 😉

Quit. Devs are used for light and small projects only!

@sunny44 it's like all it's good for... Yes I love Linux but I'm saying this as a technician who has worked at a high school that runs exclusively off of windows... Just... No

Read yesterday that SpaceX uses Linux on their Falcon. Well, it was only a small test flight.

@grosten but it would've been so much funnier with windows running an update on T- 30 :D

At least you know you will be making more money than him before long 🤷‍♂️

What your boss said is wrong, but what you guys are saying about windows server, doesn't make you any better

I guess
😠🔫
There was boss
Right??

quick example : all super computers in the world using linux.

@thesagya, May be it's me 😂😂😂

@dontbeevil, Yup dude! Windows have it's own advantages over Linux and Linux too.
But don't take it seriously dude 😂😂

But at Last "Fuck Windows" 😂😂😂

@sunny44 that's what I said ... but saying things like "windows is good only for local file server" doesn't make you any better than his boss

@dontbeevil 👍👍

@namenlossss 😂👍

Windows is the best when it comes to consuming memory :)

@azous the difference is about how you manage the memory, you're the os, unused memory is wasted... Tell me about chrome and electron instead???

@dontbeevil I agree that unused memory is wasted, but overused memory is wasted too.

Electron is awesome and sucks at the same time, hope it gets better on the long run.

@dontbeevil I was a very little bit okay with windows until a server decided to auto update while that was explicitly disabled at 3am while I was the 'disruption manager'/on call and it took me about an hour to get that fucker working again.

If windows would ALWAYS start honouring the fucking disabled automatic updating option, that would be great.

@linuxxx Are you 100% sure was windows Server ... and not home/pro or whatever? :)

@dontbeevil Windows home running on a server? At a hosting company? I seriously doubt it.

True. Linux is only used by small startups like Google and Amazon.

@Root you'd be surprised how many times I saw windows non server, used as server, and people complain

@lxmcf You have seen nothing then 0.o

I've seen Windows servers being used in a company with over 1000 employees in just the Danish office. Let me say, that it was a horrible setup that should have been moved to Linux a long time ago

@aaxa what could that possibly be used for... That just sounds like a recipe.for disaster...

@lxmcf @aaxa so just because you prefer linux, it automatically becomes an horrible setup... it could not be a configuration or hardware or software or some other problem ... yeah make totally sense ... oh wait I work and worked in companies with thousands of employees and we use mainly windows servers... strange that we didn't experience any disaster and we still get profits

@dontbeevil I'm not saying this as a Linux lover, I'm saying this from my experience with windows server setups in comparison to equal setups with Linux, both have there place

@dontbeevil This has nothing to do with with preferring one over another. Sure, I prefer Linux, bit this was really a horrible setup for what it was supposed to do.

Usually I like to discuss stuff like this, but when you are putting words in my mouth and are displaying such a horrible attitude, I get kinda pissed. It always turns out to be a waste of time to discuss with people like you anyway
