>>108523375Pretty much the same experience I had.I even made a ticket on their customer service system about their sign-up process being broken, and 5 days later their response was "sorry, we can't fix it, lol".How does a company like this manage to stay in business?

>>108523471I use VirtualBox for a singular purpose: To play SimCity 4 on a single core Windows XP VM. I don't get any sound, but it's never had a crash in the 200+ hours of playing it over the course of 15+ years in that VM. Speed is fine too.

>>108523189I tried to do something similar. They basically told me to go fuck myself when I emailed them with questions.

oracle is a cia storefront, get fucked

>>108523189Fuck them. There's a reason people say the name meansOneRichAssholeCalledLarryEllisionOracle’s revenue model relies heavily on incredibly complex, Byzantine licensing agreements. It is remarkably easy for an IT department to accidentally violate their terms—for example, by spinning up a VM and suddenly being on the hook for licensing every physical CPU core in that entire virtualized cluster.Instead of helping customers correct these mistakes, Oracle is famous for weaponizing compliance audits. They send in auditors to find these accidental violations and use them as leverage to bleed out massive, unbudgeted fines or strong-arm companies into signing new, more expensive cloud contracts, fucking those companies. Many IT professionals view this as corporate extortion.Oracle’s sales teams rarely target the folks who actually use their products. Instead, they focus on wining and dining C-level executives and upper management (rich retards), selling them on "enterprise-grade" promises and long-term service contracts. The executives sign the multi-million-dollar deal, and the engineering and IT teams are suddenly forced to implement, maintain, and support software we actively advised against.They also utterly raped the following:Java: Oracle sued Google over the use of Java APIs in Android and later changed Java’s licensing structure to aggressively charge enterprises for what used to be free.OpenOffice: Oracle’s hostile management drove the core developers away, prompting them to fork the project and create LibreOffice.MySQL: Fear over Oracle's control of the massively popular database led its original creators to fork it into MariaDB.Solaris and SPARC: Oracle effectively killed off these once-pioneering server and OS technologies.
