You're playing semantics now to defend him and yourself but you KNOW you fucked up, again. By the way: "The United Space Alliance, which manages the computers aboard the International Space Station in association with NASA." They're two different organizations which again makes no suggestion that NASA switched to Linux. That NASA uses Linux in some limited capacity and that the ISS uses it exclusively in NO WAY states that it "NASA ... dumped windows when viruses were found." His statement was 100% correct... NONE of it was correct and you still defended him. THAT is why you are deemed, appropriately, to be a complete idiot. -- Silver Slimer Islam is a disease Gab.ai: @silverslimer

That's what passes for an "advocate lie", in the "minds" of the trolling scum.

Did he not read this bit where it mentions NASA either? The United Space Alliance, which manages the computers aboard the International Space Station in association with NASA, has announced that the Windows XP computersaboard the ISS have been switched to Linux. “We migrated key functions from Windows to Linux because we needed an operating system that was stable and reliable.” > He did *not* claim that NASA dumps windows completely, you blubbering idiot. In any case, NASA has been using Linux in its ground stations for *years*, in fact they use RHEL & Fedora. At the Johnson Space Center, the *only* windows machines are used for used for emails, writing procedures, creating document & drawings as well as storing/accessing them in various databases. Critical facilities - Mission Control, training facilities, etc. - tend to use Redhat so that they can get some customer support if needed. Less critical facilities - development labs, small teams of analysts, etc. - tend to use whatever they can get for free - CentOS, Macs, Ubuntu, etc. The Jet Propulsion Lab facility uses RedHat & Ubuntu on people's work computers. The actual spacecraft use VxWorks or Green Hills Integrity.

Ewwww, what a nasty stew! -- In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles.

The other wintrolls would probably eat it. -- THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS) will remove Microsoft Windows from its onboard laptops and run Linux exclusively. The ISS carries a number of laptops that astronauts use to perform various functions and carry out certain aspects of their missions. NASA had until recently run Microsoft's Windows operating system on these laptops, however looking for something that is "stable and reliable", it opted to dump Windows in favour of Linux with the Linux Foundation helping to provide training. Keith Chuvala of United Space Alliance, a NASA contractor that is involved in maintaining the laptops used by astronauts said, "We migrated key functions from Windows to Linux because we needed an operating system that was stable and reliable - one that would give us in-house control. So if we needed to patch, adjust or adapt, we could." Chuvala reportedly has moved from Scientific Linux, a Red Hat Enterprise Linux derived distribution that is maintained by CERN and Fermilab, to Debian 6. He said the laptops on board the ISS might be used by only six people but those people have "very specific requirements and duties". That the ISS runs Linux is not particularly surprising, especially given the widespread use of Linux in the scientific community, but that it took this long to dump Windows raises a few eyebrows. That said, NASA has been using Linux on its missions for some time, including on its Mars Curosity rover, suggesting that the delay in shifting over to Linux on ISS was more to do with porting legacy applications from Windows. While Chuvala's team had to spend time porting legacy applications to Linux, it is certain that his team will save a lot of time by not having to worry about security vulnerabilities.
