Fivnex and our Hardware Division

While doing nothing with the hardware division of Fivnex until incorporation... at the absolute earliest, I do want to mention what I want the hardware division to do. I basically want to build a System76/Tuxedo company but with laptops and servers only. While desktops are cool, I feel desktops are better custom than pre-built. Our servers will come with Arisred, your choice of FreeBSD or Linux (but no desktop by default, at least for a while) and laptops that will be rebranded OEM items like the Clevo best noticed in the Oryx Pro by System76. It is a simple setup we want to have going, but it is one going. I will also be working with the DraugerOS people in order to get a special project in the works (hopefully, it would be cool).

ArisbluBSD: Why a new BSD?

 This article is to explain some decisions and plans made by the ArisbluBSD team, why we are making our own thing, and what the plan is for the OS. We mainly want to talk about five things: desktop, package management, software availability, custom software, and the future of the OS. We mostly want to explain what the goal of the OS is, and how we plan to expand in the near future. Without further ado, let's explain ArisbluBSD's plan. Desktop Environments ArisbluBSD wants to use common and well known desktops only. While other BSD systems are using extremely themed desktop environments or putting tools on top of window managers like Openbox. ArisbluBSD will have two desktop environments, and if demand grows large enough we will add Openbox as well as Xfwm4 (with a dock like Tint or Cairo for both). Our two desktop environments, XFCE and GNOME3, will be un-themed, no extensions, no pre-made configs outside of the defaults. There are good reasons to theme a desktop, but in order

ArisbluBSD: Why Linux is Slowly Corrupting Itself. 5 Reasons Why We Want to REPLACE Linux.

 We started ArisbluBSD as a Live-CD and soon-to-be desktop replacement of Linux systems like Ubuntu, Manjaro, and OpenSUSE. While we still like and support the Linux communities and operating systems, we do have multiple issues with the Linux ecosystem. So, let's jump right into the top 10 reasons we want to replace Linux. 5. Linux is Fragmented (sort-of) ArisbluBSD's team (Fivnex) sees Linux having a different fragmentation problem than people think. It's not that there are too many distros, it's the differences between those distros that give us issues. The fact of the matter is distributions like FerenOS, elementryOS, and Linux Mint become more and more like each other and their upstream (in this case Ubuntu). We will get into the upstream limitations in a bit. 4. Linux Package Management is Idiotic We will get into RPM vs DPKG and the format/repo fragmentation in a bit. But let's focus on the three forms of Linux packages. Containerized, binary package, and scri

ArisbluBSD: What is to come?

 As we are currently in development heck, let's list off what ArisbluBSD is going to become. We will list features, upcoming versions, and the version planning. We believe in transparency and being public with what is happening. Desktop Environments ArisbluBSD until we get new members on our team will support two (maybe three) desktops. The "maybe three" depends on our project lead's work on making elementryOS's desktop Pantheon available for FreeBSD. That being Kai's upcoming side project to work on while nothing else is happening, we will have two current officially supported desktops. Those desktops being GNOME3 being the main alternative desktop environment, and XFCE being the main desktop environment. Since Kai works alone and all this "we" nonsense is technically wrong as Kai more or less works alone. With GNOME3 and XFCE being the desktop environments, and Pantheon being a possible item in the woodworks, what about other desktops? Since Kai wo
