>When my friend and Directions on Microsoft's editor-in-chief Mary Jo Foley wrote in late May that Azure Linux 4.0 would be available for bare-metal servers and virtual machines (VMs), I thought, "I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for this." That's a good thing because it took Microsoft until this week to fulfill the promise. True, Microsoft did release Azure Linux 4.0, but I assumed it would only be available for ages on Microsoft's own Azure cloud. I mean, that's what the distribution is designed for after all. However, Microsoft has turned Azure Linux 4.0 from internal cloud plumbing into a full‑fledged server distribution. You can now download Azure Linux ISO images and install them on your own servers and VMs.

Why not just deploy somethign that isn’t “new” and half hatched and sprayed on, and will be licensed by- never mind.

It’s based on Fedora, but if you’re deploying to the Azure Linux in the MS cloud it might be nice to have the same distro in your dev environments.

So your saying “if niggers program your code, it’s nice to hire more niggers to understand the ghetto ebonics jive comments in the code”

Yeah no. It’s time to migrate to a different cloud.

Or just, you know, don't do cloud.
