Fork Children, Kill Processes

unix-memes, linux-memes, fork-memes, processes-memes, programming-terminology-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The classic Unix terminology strikes again! In operating systems like Linux, fork() creates a child process and kill terminates a process. So when programmers casually discuss "killing child processes" or "forking children," it sounds completely normal to us but absolutely horrifying to everyone else. It's the perfect example of why programmers should never discuss work at dinner parties unless they want to end up on some kind of watchlist.

A Senior Sys Admin Selects A Monitor That's Ripe

Ever wondered where ancient CRT monitors go to die? Apparently, they form mountains for sys admins to climb! This poor soul is navigating the graveyard of 90s technology like he's shopping for avocados at Whole Foods. "Hmm, this one's still too hard, this one's too soft... ah, this beige beauty feels just right!" Meanwhile, his company probably upgraded to flat screens in 2005, but he's still hoarding these relics because "you never know when you'll need a 30-pound monitor that can double as a space heater." The ultimate tech hoarder's paradise—where e-waste management policies go to cry.

Really Upset About Cent Os

When Red Hat pulled the plug on CentOS and pivoted to CentOS Stream, the entire sysadmin community collectively lost their minds. This protest sign captures that rage perfectly—you literally can't spell "hatred" without "Red Hat." For context: CentOS was the free, community-supported version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux that powered half the internet's servers. Then Red Hat decided to kill it off in favor of CentOS Stream (a rolling release that's more of a beta testing ground for RHEL). Thousands of production servers suddenly needed migration plans, and DevOps teams everywhere added "find CentOS alternative" to their 2021 roadmaps. The wordplay here is chef's kiss—taking your corporate betrayal to the streets with a sign that's both clever and seething with justified anger. Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux thank you for your service, angry sign person.
