Long before CentOS or RHEL, a reminder from 2000: RedHatIsNotLinux.org
> Update: fortunately there's still Mac OS.
Go download the source for Darwin.. https://github.com/apple/darwin-xnu
Compile it. Install it on your MacBook. Tell us how well MacOS boots that kernel.
- Apple’s Game Porting Toolkit is Wine

The real murder is always in the comments
What is still true? That apple kernels are Mach kernels? It still is very true. Darwin is (mostly) open source, you can check it out here: https://github.com/apple/darwin-xnu

Google Leaked Doc: OpenAI doesn’t matter
Jup! Their kernel was based on FreeBSD, IIRC, and is Open Source!

Linux is too proprietary and slow compared to Windows 11
Funfact darwin itself is open source aswell: apple/darwin-xnu: The Darwin Kernel (mirror). This repository is a pure mirror and contributions are currently not accepted via pull-requests, please submit your contributions via https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/ (github.com)

Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says
> Just imagine how much more versatile the iPad Pro would be if only you could run Linux VMs on it
After installing https://ish.app for Alpine Linux emulation on iPad, one immediately comes up with use cases, even though it's excruciatingly slow.
Hopefully Apple opens up the imminent M3 iPad Pros to run macOS and Linux VMs.

iSH

Ente: Open-Source, E2E Encrypted, Google Photos Alternative
They don't "allow" it, but most apps that need background execution just ask permission for geolocation tracking and pretend to use it, for example iSH[1]. There are a few activities that the app can do to prevent itself from being suspended when it goes out of focus, like playing sound, geolocation etc.

How to copy a file between devices?
Android: install termux, `pkg install openssh`, and preferably run `termux-setup-storage` to give it access to storage folders.
iOS: I think https://ish.app/ ?

How Virtualisation came to Apple Silicon Macs
This of course hasn't been true for years, eg: http://omz-software.com/pythonista/index.html
And you can run a C compiler (or anything) inside https://ish.app/ too.

ScummVM officially released in the App Store
False. iSH is an x86 "bytecode" emulator.
"Possibly the most interesting thing I wrote as part of iSH is the JIT. It's not actually a JIT since it doesn't target machine code. Instead it generates an array of pointers to functions called gadgets, and each gadget ends with a tailcall to the next function; like the threaded code technique used by some Forth interpreters."

Windows is now an app for iPhones, iPads, Macs, and PCs
There is an x86 virtual machkne running Linux available on the App Store now.

Now would Apple allow a full blown Windows VM is a different question

Stop EU Chat Control
There are plenty of solutions for running Python in an IDE on the iPad. There is an even an x86 emulator and a Linux terminal built on top of it in the App Store.
https://ish.app/
It can run anything that you can run on an x86 in user mode. I downloaded the AWS CLI (which requires Python) to run some tests
By the way, you were completely wrong about VSCode being written in .Net.
> That's just compiling the code to a native binary, which you would then have to go submit through Apple's store. How does that help for an IDE expected to allow you to test (i.e. execute) and debug the code you've just written ten seconds ago?
There is an existence proof that it could be done. If you ran iSH with remote VNC you could have a full IDE on a Mac.
> We can see right there some examples of what isn't allowed:
- ISH: Linux shell running on iOS/iPadOS, using usermode x86 emulation
- Lima: A nice way to run Linux VMs on Mac
