A cool fork. Open source memes are the future

We should attach a license to all our memes. Unfortunately, most of them are based on proprietary work.

I honestly don’t think a lot of the community sees Oracle as the good guys…

Your Family Friendly Corporate Software Evil Inc

Only rivaled by Adobe in licensing costs

spoilerIt’s a corporate company known for buying out any competition and feasting on the FOSS community by vendor locking companies into their crappy support products and abusing any and all loopholes to charge enterprise prices for any service or software (like java). Case in point being Oracle Linux which started as a blatant rip of RHEL and is probably IBM’s main reason for locking down RHEL source. Their only major market competitor has been AWS because they also offer (and copy) all of Oracle’s services and software whilst also feasting on the FOSS community, albeit probably less than Oracle. Oracle linux support is just one of their many insane products they sell.
