What is EU OS?EU OS is not a project of the European Union, but it should be.So far, EU OS is a Proof-of-Concept for the deployment of a Fedora-based Linux operating system with a KDE Plasma desktop environment and bootable container technology in a typical public sector organisation. Other organisations with similar requirements or less strict requirements may also learn from this Proof-of-Concept.Despite the name, EU OS is technically not a new operating system. Distrowatch lists currently over 250 Linux operating systems (‘distributions’) and their various flavours, spins or subvariants are not even counted in. The added value of EU OS is a different one:a common Linux OS as a base for all EU OS users with options to layer on top modifications (national layer, regional or sector-specific layer, organisation-specific layer)a common desktop environmenta common method to manageusers and their datasoftwaredeviceshttps://eu-os.eu/
>>108007826The real EU Linux will be the European equivalent of Red Star OS
>>108007847Windows is already like this for Americans. They actually get in trouble for non-commercial piracy of software. Can you imagine?
Can’t be Debian (US) or Arch (Canadian) based. Start from scratch, boy (or use Void or something idk)
>>108007886So there is already a Canadian based distro, but no EU based distro? How embarrassing.
>>108007886Fedora is actually the only sensible base. Any other GNU/Linux distro is insecure and/or unstable. But they should've used a more secure base like an AOSP derivative or a more secure fedora atomic distro.
>>108007847>haha bottle caps>haha free healthcareever heard of GDPR, retard?
>>108007826>FEDora basedIt's already dead.>But they should've used a more secure base like an AOSP derivative or a more secure fedora atomic distro.The most secure computer is one that you can't use at all. People need to be able to do things on their computer.
>>108007964Why is women in workforce on a pro EU stats list? That's a gigapovety indicator if women are forced to work.
>>108009796EU women are just men without D. They behave like that, don't want kids, just want to make a lot of money to travel the world and post pics on insta about it for rest of their lives
>>108007886>Start from scratchSeems a bit cumbersome
>>108007826The main stumbling block for switching from windows will always be that there is not proper alternative for microsoft office. But that is a lot more difficult to make than slapping a coat of paint on a linux distro so you can scam money out of the government.
>>108007826>>108007962Fedora is an American distro. Wouldn't openSUSE be a better choice? SUSE also has an atomic/immutable version which could serve as a base instead of Fedora Kinoite.>>108010096What are you fucking retarded? Microsoft Office is completely irrelevant now because most businesses have moved to Google Docs.
>>108010154I think he mentioned microsoft office because institutions are not businesses and they are very slow to change. It'll take decades to get rid of office in the EU.
>>108007826>EU OS>not EUR OSmissed opportunity
>>108010195Sure, understandable. I was reading through the website so the thing that stuck to me was the fact they're apparently also building versions of it for businesses and regular users, not just gov institutions.But to be fair if it gets decided that Windows is a legitimate security or privacy threat then the EU will act swift. Office isn't really an issue since it's a solved problem. The only real problem is potential data migration or specific ancient proprietary software which only has a Windows build. I'm pretty sure WINE isn't tested on such software because it's mostly not publicly available. So if WINE doesn't support this software and there's no working alternatives then it will definitely take 5+ years.
>>108007826>OSShouldn’t it be SO? It doesn’t make sense to be a Euro distro but be in English
>>108010198The problem is that EUR is a currency and it's not even used by several EU countries. EurOS or EuropOS might make sense.>>108010236>SOWhat? The Euro languages I'm aware of would abbreviate it to OS. Which language are you thinking of?Also, English is the western language. It's commonly spoken/understood in EU especially among younger generations. You pretty much need to know it if you interact with anyone outside your country, which is common in EU especially in tourist areas or workplaces where you interact with people from other countries.
>>108007962>retard moment
>>108010263> Which language are you thinking of?I”m thinking of literal French, Spanish, and Italian And I’m aware how ubiquitous English is in many parts of Europe. I don’t think that is necessarily a good thing.
>>108010231True, office isn't the real problem. I don't know how things work in other EU countries, but in my meme country nothing is swift. There's a real meme here "The online form is to be submitted on the second floor office."
>>108010291EurBS for Betriebssystem.
>>108010291>I don’t think that is necessarily a good thing.It is. Having 20 different languages is extremely annoying and inefficient.
>>108010304The reason things are slow is because there's no incentive to work fast. When you work for the government in EU you fall into a state of complacency and sluggishness because there's almost no threat of you getting fired. And even if you do get fired most countries have a decent enough social safety net.But whenever there's a genuine emergency many EU countries actually work fast. If every institution was given a 2-3 year deadline to abandon Windows, you'd see it abandoned in most places.
>>108010154>What are you fucking retarded? Microsoft Office is completely irrelevant now because most businesses have moved to Google Docs.Google docs is better for online collaboration, but lacks features compared to ms office in my experience. And lets not forget outlook and teams. Hate them all you want, they are the best in their field.>>108010231>it gets decided that Windows is a legitimate security or privacy threat then the EU will act swiftOk fair point, under state pressure the switch could be made. I expect that in such a case microshaft would make a linux compatible office with less spyware to get around the block. A bit like how coca cola invented fanta during ww2.
>>108010355>teams>the best in their fieldThis is retarded on so many levels. Nobody likes teams or considers it "the best". I've worked at several different places which have used it and I've talked to a ton of people who have used all kinds of communication software. Teams is actual dogshit.The company where I'm currently at has defaulted to voice/video chatting in Slack and Google Meets. Teams is only used by some of our boomer execs because they're too lazy to switch away from it.
>>108007826>>108007847>>108007877Doesn't EU just use Windows N?
How high would be the probability that an EU centered Linux system wouldn't be FOSS?
>>108010378Not really. And it doesn't make any difference at all. It only disables some media features and the xbox application. The actual concerns come from copilot periodically sending private data, the undocumented telemetry and the fact that Windows N is still Windows. So EU is still paying for a proprietary American OS and service. Using it in government offices poses massive security risks. I mean, do you think America should use China's HarmonyOS in government offices?
>>108009959soo true, US(white) women on the other hand are super trad and children making oriented.
>>108010263>What? The Euro languages I'm aware of would abbreviate it to OS. Which language are you thinking of?>EUOSDoes not really roll of the tongue in English, and I can already hear boomers saying uuhjos. Needs to be a single word, preferably derived from latin or ancient greek. Like lumen, apollo, LuxOS, On a sidenote, I find the recent pro EU spam on the internet pretty cringe. It's so obviously fake, based on a caricature understanding of jingoism by people without a patriotic bone in their body.>>108010352I've seen government pcs still running windows xp with no service packs back in 2021. If they did the switch they would outsource it to a company run by a politicians buddy (where he wil coincidentally join the board after his tenure), and it would cost 3x as much and take 3x as long as it should. Bonus point if they can develop another buggy app that every citizen has to download for any administration, then once that is done the state develops another app alongside it with the same functionality because the previous one is owned by a private company.
>>108007826>we want EU-OS to not be dependent on US>our OS will be dependent on distro - which is owned by US corporation, which will abide by all US laws/embargos why even bother at that point?
>>108010311It’s fine to have a central language around which to establish broad communication, I just don’t think is the right one for Europe. I am aware of the irony of my post.
It would be nice to have an EU-based distro, but everyone knows that Germans and their autism will insist they dominate the project and thereby ruin it for everyone.
>>108010465>I've seen government pcs still running windows xp with no service packs back in 2021There's plenty of places which still run WinXP. The difference is that most of them are completely offline and are no longer even paying Microsoft anything.
>>108010469>why even bother at that point?Let's not forget: we are also fully phasing out russian gas so we can buy 4x more expensive American gas instead, we have been antagonizing China for no reason, are outsourcing our food production to South America, and will give Palantir free reign to scan every chat in Europe with chat control and digital ids. And we will spend 5% GDP on mostly American weapons so the Americans can use us as a wrecking ball against Russia. On top of this we are using unreliable "green" energy that is destroying our industry through high energy prices. But America is wearing the bad cop red hat instead of good cop blue hat so raaa go EU.To get back on topic, there won't be a European alternative to big tech. And if it does come, you will discover that it is running American spyware under the hood.
cannonical and suse come to mind for a european operating system with corporation style backing.debian and arch are pretty much independent from any nation on this earth.meanwhile, redhat blocks nations like cuba.
>>108007826I'd trust HarmonyOS more than I'd trust an "EU" OS.
>>108010580>we have been antagonizing China for no reasonThe reason is the US convincing EU that China is evil and EU should stick only with US. Now that EU-US relations have soured I predict that EU-China relations will improve soon. I mean, EU has already set a trade deal with India even though both had aggressive protection measures.>we will spend 5% GDP on mostly American weaponsThe EU is also a pretty influential weapon supplier, especially to the US. It's just that America produces a lot more weapons. Once Trump leaves office the EU will just backpedal from most of the unofficial deals that were made, like the mass buying of American weapons.>we are using unreliable "green" energy that is destroying our industry through high energy prices.Plenty of political parties are saying they want their countries to abandon green energy. If you want a change then go out and vote.>>108010602Yes, most places in EU that are switching to Linux are opting to use Ubuntu.
>>108007826>systemd>EUlmao
>>108010154>Microsoft Office is completely irrelevant now because most businesses have moved to Google Docs.no business has ever used Google Docs
>German company makes office suite that runs on non MS-controlled systems, has less bloat, and doesn't force cloud shit>MS bribes German government to use Office365 insteadwe'll never get away from American corporations as long as corruption is so rampant
>>108010686It's the default for almost all tech and tech-adjecent companies in EU.
>>108010378>Doesn't EU just use Windows N?I haven't seen anybody I know have the N version installed. I assume the EU government uses a gov version as they do exist.
>>108007826>EU OS>Based on FedoraOpenSuse is literally right there, anon.
>>108007964>>ever heard of GDPR, retard?>He genuinely believes in the GDPR.That's only for the corporation not the EU, as they are implementing things like chat control and ID verification.
>>108007826sounds good. as long as this stays a project meant for government computers. I will bake my own linux for personal use but anything that doesn't rely on american infrastructure is a positive
>>108007826>free Operating System for the EU public sectorImagine SAP but it's now whole operating system kek. Just nuke us.
>>108009796>That's a gigapovety indicator if women are forced to work.It is, the EU is going to collapse. Just like the US, within the next 10 years.
>>108010901Two more weeks!
>>108009959>EU women are just men without D. They behave like that, don't want kids, just want to make a lot of money to travel the world and post pics on insta about it for rest of their livesThis is why the EU is rapidly aging. and soon collapsing. Productivity is abysmal while everyone has to work harder for the obsolete class.
>>108010871>>108010429I guess I'm the dumb one here. I remember someone posted that it was N version that was made specially for EU government without the normal spying shit that was still allowed locally inside the US for government use.
>>108010936>I guess I'm the dumb one here. I remember someone posted that it was N version that was made specially for EU government without the normal spying shit that was still allowed locally inside the US for government use.No the N version does Not include windows media player 11 and all the codecs needed, that's what The N stands for Not included. (or something similar).However nothing came form it, as PC manufactures ship the normal windows in the EU/Europe.
>>108010952>PC manufactures ship the normal windows in the EU/Europe.I don't mean normies I mean specifically only government.
>>108010935Yes, I read that the birth rate here is the lowest in history. We work all day, we pay 60% of our salary in taxes, then we pay 80% of that for rent, because you have to live somewhere. You can't have children in such an economy. And those who already have children have a problem enrolling them in school, because the schools are already full of migrant children.Europe is over, not because there is no solution, but because someone wants it that way.
>>108007964Homicides among White Americans are lower than in most EU countries. It's just the Negroes and Mestizos who are responsibile for the higher crime rates in the US. And since you're an EU shill, I assume you're also in favor of importing millions of Mestizos, Negroes, Jeets and Arabs into Europe as the EU has been doing for decades. So you're in favor of more Europeans getting killed by criminals and terrorists.Americans enjoy many freedoms which Europoors can only dream of, and there are numerous Europeans who live in the US as officially recognized refugees due to political persecution and lack of free speech in Europe, such as Germar Rudolf.>free healthcareHealthcare is not free at all in the EU, I pay tens of thousands of Euros for healthcare every year even though I only go to a doctor once a year for a checkup.It is forced health insurance. People like me who act responsibly with their own health are forced to pay it just so that fat bastards can pay for their insulin and ozempic, smokers can pay for lung transplants and retarded leftist whores can pay for psychotherapists after getting raped and tortured by the very Arab invaders who they themselves invited.>ever heard of GDPRYeah, that's the one large corporations pushed through to prevent competition cropping up. It has so many subregulations that it makes starting a small internet business impossible unless you already have enough money to hire a team of lawyers.
>>108011085>someone wants it that wayLet me guess, you are going on about them again?
>>108011109Keep beleving the propaganda, the EU is collapse but not because of your chud theories.
>>108010441Among the Mormons, Amish and other strongly religious groups, that is actually true. Such groups are not allowed to exist in the EU, try building a community like that in Germany and ze jugendamt will take away your kids in no time so they can get proper transgender indoctrination in a public school.
>>108011121note how the EU shill can't disprove a single thing I wrote.
>>108011070N is made for normies, or rather OEMs if they opt into it. But almost nobody ships devices with the N version.>>108011085This is happening in other places in the world. Our current system is just not built to sustainably support humans who live older than 70. A big tax drain in places like EU and JP are actually just the elderly. As soon as people stop fucking and having kids the system falls apart because you have less workers per person on welfare/pension. That's why the EU was so adamant about importing new workers. EU wants more tax revenue to support this system.The actual merciful thing to humanity as a whole would be mandated executions of everyone above 75 years old. At least until we figure out a proper way to support these financially draining citizens who contribute nothing back.
>>108007826I want to kill the EU and rape every EU politician and every pro federalist cuck
>>108011167>That's why the EU was so adamant about importing new workers. EU wants more tax revenue to support this system.nonsense.Most of the Arabs and Negroes from the 2015 mass immigration wave STILL do not have steady employment, and most of those who do work are still a net drain on society because their wages are so low compared to the social services they consume.Mass-Immigration policies are in part economically motivated by those who can use the migrants as taxpayer-financed consumers (landlords in particular make a killing from this industry) and some of them as cheap workers who drag down wages; on the other hand there is the ideological and religious motivation to destroy European peoples as distinct cultural and biological group entities.If the governments wanted to increase the birthrate, they could do that. The National Socialist government very successfully increased the German birthrate within a very short time after they came to power.
>>108011109>Healthcare is not free at all in the EU, I pay tens of thousands of Euros for healthcare every yeargo look how much it would cost to get a simple surgery, cancer treatment or any treatment for anything mildly serious at all really, calling an ambulance etc. and come back to report how much you're being ripped off.Even if you're rich, but at that point why would you complain for a some thousands of euros a year, there are millions of people(workers) that couldn't afford treatments.If you don't like the very basic European principle of universal healthcare you can always move the fuck away to some other zero welfare shithole, plenty of them around the world, nobody is stopping you you fucking subhuman nigger.
>>108011109>Homicides among White Americans are lower than in most EU countries. It's just the Negroes and Mestizos who are responsibile for the higher crime rates in the US.You getting killed by a black or a mestizo or a trans person doesn't change the fact you got killed, your country is a violent third world shithole, amerifat. You fat pig, you.>And since you're an EU shill, I assume you're also in favor of importing millions of Mestizos, Negroes, Jeets and Arabs into Europe as the EU has been doing for decades.EU has nothing to do with migration to EU, the migration will happen with or without the EU, as Europe has colonized continents just like the US and just like the US is an aging country that needs workers for it's GDP to go up, the standard that you set btw with your shilling of GDP, globohomo, and melting pots, so our politicians now emulate it too.>So you're in favor of more Europeans getting killed by criminals and terrorists.Literally every crime statistic or every percentage of immigrants or non-whites in Europe is lower than in US, you are the prototype for it all, you are the ultimate ameripig that has already collapsed into a third world shithole, but at least you have Donald Trump or something despite less than 30% of your under 5yo being white.>Healthcare is not free at all in the EUNo shit retard, if everyone is taxed then nobody is paying directly or feeling the hit as hard, obviously a fat individualistic ameripig amerimutt amerifat cannot comprehend this as your society is individualistic subhumans whose brains are destroyed by lead pipes and can't comprehend empathy or reason for why socialistic policies can be good for social cohesion and stability.>Some retarded redneckbabble about GDPRGDPR is objectively good, I do not care if you need to spend a week extra to make your shit work with the GDPR. Just like I don't care if you won't be able to sell food if it doesn't pass EU regulations, I'm not a fucking pig without self-respect.
>>108011172Honestly it's the opposite for me, the more I see disgusting ameripigs and russian orcs speak badly about the EU, the more adamant I am about EU being necessary at all and any costs. I'm willing to go beyond any measure to make sure it succeeds and flourishes even if it means importing 50 million immigrants every year for labour at this point. In fact it makes me want to stop being racist completely, I realize that other whites are my biggest enemy and most insidious and prone to lying or attempts to destroy my living standards so I must go back from nationalistic tendencies and embrace globohomo. European Union needs to decouple itself from the US, needs to start an all out war and FINISH the subhuman russian orcs until moscow and petersburg is turned into a pile of dust and bones, and then expand onto middle east and north africa, and asia too.
>>108011273>I'm willing to go beyond any measure to make sure it succeeds and flourishes even if it means importing 50 million immigrants every year for labour at this pointhank you for killing it faster
>>108011277God willing the only thing that will be getting killed is dead russian babies in 2026 and 2027, I pray for EU troops to invade Russia and kill as many russian babies as possible. DRB (DEAD RUSSIAN BABIES) videos should fill the internet, just videos of disgusting little fucking orcs having their brains splattered over their raped mothers as they squeal like the disgusting fucking pigs they are. Total ruski death is necessary for the EU to heal, we would bond over dead russian babies, just pictures of dead russian babies everywhere, dead russian children, raped dead russian women. It would be home. Peaceful. Cozy. Evropa healing. This is what we need more than an EU OS, we need TRD. TOTAL RUSSIAN DEATH

>>108011109>People like me who act responsibly with their own healthanon, shut the fuck upwe're all young and healthy until we aren't. you're not in control. not as much as you think you are
>>108011229>If the governments wanted to increase the birthrate, they could do that.They don't know how to. Increasing benefits you get from raising a child was already tried and has failed in many countries. There's a dozen layers to the birth problem and you need massive changes to actually fix the underlying issue.
>>108007964Everything on the blue column is rapidly declining. The kikes in power are making sure of it.
>>108011437>They don't know how toWrong, they know exactly how to increase and decrease birthrates, which is why they promote numerous policies which are designed to engineer a decline in birthrates of the native population, such as having females enter the workforce instead of leaving them time to rear children (feminism), sterilization and castration of children (euphemistically called "transgenderism") and flooding the job market with cheap laborers who drag down wages, increase rent, increase crime, increase terrorism, destroy social cohesion and snatch up entry-level jobs that could've been done by young natives.The National Socialists already showed how to do it, and they did so without Christian or Islamic religious fanaticism. There are various concrete measures which they have proven the efficacy of, and any actually concerned government could adopt them if they actually cared about the welfare of their own people.
>>108007964>ever heard of GDPR, retard?>*has to post ID to go on X and gets arrested if xe even looks at an anti-ursula post*T*rdkey unironically should have won and genocided all of e*rope.

>>108011109>free healthcareNot only is it not free, it's not healthcare. The only time in the past ten years I've had need to see a specialist, I wound up having to pay for a private one because the one covered by the public healthcare rushed me out the door without bothering actually to find out what the problem was or treat it. You pay through the nose for forced health insurance, as you say, and then when you actually get sick, you have to pay again for private healthcare because the public healthcare system is trash.>>108011254Yeah, except you wouldn't get the simple surgery or cancer treatment. They'd put you on a list to get it in 30 months. Have fun with your tumor in the meantime.
>>108007886Nix is dutch
>>108014607>I wound up having to pay for a private one because the one covered by the public healthcare rushed me out the door without bothering actually to find out what the problem was or treat it.This is my experience as well.
>>108010686The previous 3 companies I’ve worked in/with over the last 8 years use Google office shit. One is IT, one sells gold and one is marketing
>>108014607>>Yeah, except you wouldn't get the simple surgery or cancer treatment. They'd put you on a list to get it in 30 months. Have fun with your tumor in the meantime.I needed surgery and the whole process lasted like 3 months.For emergencies it was the same day or the next one, which saved my and people I know live's multiple times, my mom got chemio for free, etc., I could cite dozen of different anecdotal experiences(same as you did since you have yet to bring any actual data about the woes of universal healthcare compared to a private system) in which the system worked.it obviously isn't perfect but when the alternative is death for many I'll choose imperfect, especially cause I'm not a psychopath that would rather see somebody die than pay some thousands euros a year for the benefit of everybody. It is unfortunate that we're born signed into a social contract over which he had no agency in but again, if you don't like it you still have the freedom for now to go live to a place were you don't have basically any welfare what so ever and everything is private, go and live the dream there.
