"Terminal services have been around for a long time" understatement of the century... The first office computers WERE terminal services and for a long period of time in 70/80s most offices WERE terminal services..

Longer than pc, but it is less than a hundred years. It is starting to be a long time now
The first business computers were quickly organized around closed shop batch-mode processing to maximize utilization of the fabulously expensive hardware. From this we got improved operating systems, and finally, interactive time-sharing systems like MVS with TCAM/TSO or CP/CMS (later VM/CPS) on the IBM mainframe , ITS, WAITS, Multics, and then a second generation of these systems, such as UNIX, VMS, and also specialized word processors like Wang Labs. From there, we had the breakthrough of personal computers, which were eventually networked and used in a client/server architecture.
And later, specially in "nominally" (only) first world countries (I bet in the US, too, in many places and companies).The typical IBM AS/400 serving all the admin employees terminals. I remember that ('95 or so, if I recall well). All those green or orange monitors, the dumb terminals. Oh, and the videotex. And I had to support all of that. Kindda fun times. :D

@@MiniKodjo cloud computing is technically almost the exact opposite from mainframes architecturally. The whole point of cloud computing is distributed everything. Every piece being able to be provisioned and released on demand. A mainframe was a monolithic system.
Terminals have primarily been a unix thing. I had a few unix servers at home, with 48+ tty's per server for enduser terminals. I've also seen insanely expensive dual seat sillicon graphics 19" 10U high "desktop" systems. Mainframes don't have users, they have timeslots and batches, no interactivity. You do not work on a mainframe. Only the operator will start your batch. And later you can collect the result.
@@entelin Most cloud computing is just flexible scaling nodes with a pretty conventional load balancer architecture in front. It's distributed computing only in the sense that multiple individual computers and automation are utilized to do one task, not a true distributed architecture where many physical computing devices can be treated like one big logical one.
@@bloepje "Terminals have primarily been a unix thing." WRONG. Long before there was Unix, there was IBM's multi-user, remote terminal-based operating systems: CP-40/CMS, CP-67, VM/370, TSS/360, OS/360 MVT-TSO ("Time Sharing Option"), OS/VS2 SVS-TSO, MVS-TSO, CICS (Transactional system), and Michigan Terminal System ("MTS", non-IBM). All ran on IBM terminals (2740, 2741, 1050 - all "golf ball" type terminals , and 2250 vector graphics terminal).
Ironically you're actually going into the past for this. Before PCs became powerful enough to take over the Enterprise, this is how large businesses used mainframes. It was called Time Sharing. Everyone had a terminal, basically a dumb terminal that connected to a terminal server that connected to a port on the main frame. On the mainframe there would be dozens upon dozens of users each with the illusion that he/she was the only user on the computer. Some systems used UNIX, others used operating systems by DEC like RSTS/E, RSX, VAX/VMS and so on. One problem with this method was that if the computer went down, all of those dozens upon dozens of users I just spoke about would be shit out of luck. So we often had large backup systems the whole thing in a cluster. If one went down, we'd shift all the users to another system. Back then I was writing load balancing software for the mainframes. I dare say it is humorous watching you advocate going back to the same old method in 2024!
Well, with how things are going the goal might be to just sell everyone a rpi or equal and have you subscribe to a virtual machine that is ran from a large datacenter cloud network and then you can subscribe to the os, sub for your allocated gpu, cpu, memory, and storage, subscribe to each application you run and then ultimately.... own nothing.
At 13:09 you can just press CTRL+ALT+F2 - F4 and it'll open another shell on the system, there's no need to login through SSH. When you shut the display manager down the active one(whichever it is) will be inactive. Even if the display manager is running it'll switch to a shell.

Back around 2000 I was an administrator running a Citrix, so that's 24 years ago and it was awesome. 350 thin clients sitting across about 7 Windows NT 4 terminal server machines with Citrix Metaframe. Upgrade everyone in one night to the latest software, no problem. Roll out that bug fix, no problem. Set up 20 new staff, no problem.
That's awesome. We still use Citrix in our company. Works well enough even with over a thousand users across 60+ servers. Some bugs here and there but overall a solid experience.
@@ninthjake I never operated in that sort of league - but it is a technology when I first saw it I was instantly amazed by how powerful it was at creating centralized distributed infrastructure. Keep it up!!
So this is basically a 23 minutes cendio commercial, shwing off a single user using blender through the terminal session and claiming that someone else is working in another session (19:55), while proving a few xeconds later that he isn't (20:39 and 20:46). Don't get me wrong: I really love the idea and I really hope this works as promised, but I haven't seen anything that convinces me.
As a 4year thinlinc user, it does what it promises. I've done a video demonstrating how you can even have hardware video acceleration on the remote session that you can even play OpenGL games on it (I'm not sure if it already supports Vulkan somehow), but during pandemics, I had 3 people sharing a single notebook at home and it worked flawlessly. th-cam.com/video/aiLB0-Jbwlw/w-d-xo.html
10 years ago, gaming on Linux SUCKED, but now we have thousands of Steam games that work fine natively or through Proton. Games not working has been the biggest hurdle to adoption imo. I'm a computer science nerd, but at the end of the day I still need a way to play my favorite games. Add to that way more Windows software works well or at least has a browser app like Office 365, its doable imo. I still want a pure Windows machine for maximum performance and compatibility, but I could survive on Linux
I'm in about the same boat as you, as a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer. Full Office 365 functionality (especially Outlook) and game compatibility are the only things Windows has going for it anymore. Even Microsoft doesn't care about Windows anymore. The entire OS is as important to their bottom line as computers are to Apple, ie, about a 10% rounding error. The truth MSFT doesn't want most people to know: Azure runs more Linux machines than Windows.
You do know that UNIX/X always supported multiple users connecting from terminals; and back in the 90s and even earlier, this included graphical terminals like NeWS or X11 or Display Postscript (NeXTStep). Not to mention desktop, VNC... All basically because UNIX and Linux are multiuser systems from the ground up. Always have been.
So as someone who daily drives Linux I'd genuinely recommend using Fedora if your machine is running brand new hardware, which based on the RTX 4090 is probably the case. That's simply because Fedora ships with MUCH newer kernels, meaning it has fixes and improvements for new hardware. It's also, in my experience, rock solid! Also, I just ran glxspheres64 on my RTX 3070 Ti laptop GPU and I'm getting 10x the performance. Please install the Nvidia driver!! I LOVE the cutaways to Florida Nick editing, 10/10
Windows 11 doesn't provide any concurrent remote desktop support. It's in fact explicitly not allowed per the Microsoft license. There are third party apps that would give you access to programs on the Windows 11 machine that would allow concurrent access, but I'm not ware of any that give you the actual desktop to interact with. TSPlus makes programs available via web browser for instance, but not the desktop. VNC lets you access the desktop, and you can configure that to allow multiple connections, but then everyone is sharing the same desktop (they do not all get their own). You can install SSH servers and access programs, but again, no desktop, and no GUI at all unless you also have X forwarding setup (which is possible, but most Windows software isn't going to work that natively).
I just love how those guys are just fooling around with the tech they have just explained. It makes it even more then a tutoral, cause it although shows courage. Love it.
Most likely the reason you didn't see the pretty window when you went to install ThinLinc is because of that sh you put at the start of the command. You essentially forced the script to use sh as the script interpreter which doesn't have a ton of support for GUI elements. You could have run it by simply typing ./thinlinc-install and the interpreter called out in the script by the installer (most likely bash) would have taken over and ran the install the same way but with the GUI elements if available.
I had a LTSP (Linux Thin Server Project) running for about 5 years at the High School I taught at > 14 years ago. One server ran 20 crappy pc's in the lab. It ran a straight Ubuntu system, totally open source. Short answer, it was great.

As a Filipino who follows Networkchuck, I learned a lot from you about Linux and cybersecurity one of the best channels to learn from and, it's shocking to see a Filipino comic character included in this video, Thank you and, Thank you very much for this meaningful knowledge.
We use HP ThinClients at work, we've been running HP ThinClients for around 20yrs now at least :) Our Terminal Server is a Windows server, always has been. 5 of them in total for around 200 thinclients. I changed 1 of our stores to RPi 3Bs a few years back, worked ok, ran WTWare (when it was free) which was neat, but they actively refused to support several features that we were using from Remote Desktop Connection (Remote Control, Remote Control with differing screen resolutions, etc...) and then it became non-free. Eventually gave up and went back to HP thinclients.
The company I used to work at in the 1990s used thin clients. The boss wanted us to have a silent work environment. It's funny when Windows people discover what Unix had 30 or 40 years ago.
Thank you for sharing, your videos always make me feel very interesting. I have been following you for a long time, haha. Your videos cover a lot about Linux and networking, and I feel that you are a very skilled operations engineer. Your previous video "I build a Raspberry Pi Super Computer," where you take the Raspberry Pi array out of the oven, made me laugh so much, it was hilarious, very impressive. Following your steps, I have learned a lot about Kubernetes technology, and the interspersed Minecraft also makes me feel very familiar, haha. I also set up a Minecraft server on the Raspberry Pi and played with friends. Your videos are always very passionate, haha, and I strongly agree with what you said that everyone should learn Linux! Looking forward to your next masterpiece!
the terminal instructions sounded a bit off to me... don't get me wrong, it's an amazing video and i'm glad you guys actually show what you're doing but there's a lot of edge cases where cutting corners could cause issues. first, sh ./install-server sounds like a bad idea because the script has a shebang to specify the preferred interpreter and overriding that with sh is almost always a bad idea because that launches a barebones posix shell which can break a lot of stuff. just leave the sh part and instead give the script execute permissions or check the first line to see what interpreter it wants. note that some scripts will incorrectly request sh as interpreter while they should be requesting bash so i'd personally go one step further and run shellcheck on the script just in case. second, dpkg install thinlinc*.deb isn't a problem until you have 2 thinlinc packages in which case it will probably install both. it still shouldn't cause trouble because it'll order alphabetically which effectively results in it starting with the older one but still, best to just specify the one you want instead of using a wildcard. third, sudo su - is a pretty well-known yet useless command, use sudo -i instead. again, amazing video, it's just that i've blindly followed instructions like this before which have caused me varying degrees of pain and i don't want other people to waste their time like that.
It's almost impossible to count all the puns and easter eggs in the video :D . Just awesome! And I love how the Computer Time Shearing from way back in the day is making a comeback :D
There is a classic movie called "Hackers". Please watch that if you haven't already! The weird lanky guy with the braided hair is epic. You will like it.

I think because spinning up VMs instead of user Sessions requires SR-IOV, which is sadly not on consumer GPUs and an upsell for enterprise hardware (even though consumer cards are technically capable to handle such loads).
@@bluefrancis14 There's definitely GPU passthrough, so I assume PCIE passthrough is a thing as well. SomeOrdinaryGamers showed a similar thing when creating a VM with GPU capabilities for running certain windows games through a VM, so I'm not sure if that would fit what you're looking for

Especially when it fits the description so perfectly!
just before I graduated(around socket 478 Xeon), I had a teacher buy a dual xeon system with 63gb raid setup and run Redhat(I think Fedora had just come out around this point); had a classroom of like 20something~ IBM Pentium II/III based computers network booting terminal services...... kinda old feature, he also played around with clustering systems before asking the school to help him setup that classroom; ran decently as a concept.... can't recall the GUI but something pretty lightweight ** mysteriously a year later the school took down the lab **cough** MS had provided some funding to the schools locally which may or may not of been part of that decision *cough*.....
The virtualgl part is kinda mysterious and scary... Does that mean that ThinLinc is only there to establish the connection, but is actually not able to access all the hardware? I don't really understand why not... Or maybe, ThinLinc can access the hardware, and virtualgl is not there to send the graphics, but virtualgl helps split the gpu resource for the different virtualgl users? I don't know...
*desktop users. this is more of a server. with servers. we're over 70%, same with phones, and with supercomputers we have all of them. (all the ones from top 500 list used for statistics). If you sum up everything (yes chrome os and android too, they may be weird distros, but they're still linux) linux is the most popular os in the world.
I'm going to be the grumpy "you changed something about your content" commenter, but the switch between Chuck and Alex throws me off. The energy is way too different, and it kind of makes me just skip past Alex. 😵💫
I’ve been a pc user since 1987 and Dos 3.1. After all the MS debacles and security issues I decided to switch over to a version of Linux. I tried mint for my first install and because I’m used to windows I always thought updating Linux was a good thing and didn’t do a backup. Yeah I know thank you. So after a bit more searching I came across a gaming version of Linux Nabora 39. I am pretty happy so far with Nobora so far, I do have a weird issue with the line-in audio but everything else works. I am definitely a noob and not used to the terminal commands, I just use the update feature in Nobora. Maybe in the future I will learn to use terminal commands, but for now it works for me.
15 years ago I was working at a place where we moved most of our users of to thin clients. If a user clicked on malware, all they'd have to do is close the session and log on again. 4 years ago i heard from a former co-worker that the company was switching away from thin clients. They experienced some catastrophic failures at the server and core switch level, which in turn caused every terminal services user to be dead in the water.
We need a way for people impacted by Big Tech layoffs to use their skills for Linux, like a GoFundMe crowdsourcing thing. So people can get paid to help develop Linux and open-source alternatives to Adobe!

We are bringing back mainframes and terminals with this one
Cloud computing is basically mainframes over http
@@MiniKodjo cloud computing is technically almost the exact opposite from mainframes architecturally. The whole point of cloud computing is distributed everything. Every piece being able to be provisioned and released on demand. A mainframe was a monolithic system.
Terminals have primarily been a unix thing.
I had a few unix servers at home, with 48+ tty's per server for enduser terminals.
I've also seen insanely expensive dual seat sillicon graphics 19" 10U high "desktop" systems.
Mainframes don't have users, they have timeslots and batches, no interactivity. You do not work on a mainframe. Only the operator will start your batch. And later you can collect the result.
@@entelin Most cloud computing is just flexible scaling nodes with a pretty conventional load balancer architecture in front. It's distributed computing only in the sense that multiple individual computers and automation are utilized to do one task, not a true distributed architecture where many physical computing devices can be treated like one big logical one.
@@bloepje "Terminals have primarily been a unix thing." WRONG. Long before there was Unix, there was IBM's multi-user, remote terminal-based operating systems: CP-40/CMS, CP-67, VM/370, TSS/360, OS/360 MVT-TSO ("Time Sharing Option"), OS/VS2 SVS-TSO, MVS-TSO, CICS (Transactional system), and Michigan Terminal System ("MTS", non-IBM). All ran on IBM terminals (2740, 2741, 1050 - all "golf ball" type terminals , and 2250 vector graphics terminal).
Ironically you're actually going into the past for this. Before PCs became powerful enough to take over the Enterprise, this is how large businesses used mainframes. It was called Time Sharing. Everyone had a terminal, basically a dumb terminal that connected to a terminal server that connected to a port on the main frame. On the mainframe there would be dozens upon dozens of users each with the illusion that he/she was the only user on the computer. Some systems used UNIX, others used operating systems by DEC like RSTS/E, RSX, VAX/VMS and so on.
One problem with this method was that if the computer went down, all of those dozens upon dozens of users I just spoke about would be shit out of luck. So we often had large backup systems the whole thing in a cluster. If one went down, we'd shift all the users to another system. Back then I was writing load balancing software for the mainframes.
I dare say it is humorous watching you advocate going back to the same old method in 2024!
Like the Bible told us there is nothing new under the sun.
Well, with how things are going the goal might be to just sell everyone a rpi or equal and have you subscribe to a virtual machine that is ran from a large datacenter cloud network and then you can subscribe to the os, sub for your allocated gpu, cpu, memory, and storage, subscribe to each application you run and then ultimately.... own nothing.
Yo..
@@NeverSuspects
isn't that the same as cloud computing now in some ways? you log into aws or asure and they give you a scalable computer system.
isnt that even why the teminal got its name from?
At 13:09 you can just press CTRL+ALT+F2 - F4 and it'll open another shell on the system, there's no need to login through SSH. When you shut the display manager down the active one(whichever it is) will be inactive. Even if the display manager is running it'll switch to a shell.
also they should've run vglrun glxinfo -B to make sure that the right gpu was selected. Linux defaults to igpu
also also they should've used apt instead of dpkg
I was thinking about that. I thought it only killed the graphics subsystem then I was confused but it makes more sense now.

Back around 2000 I was an administrator running a Citrix, so that's 24 years ago and it was awesome. 350 thin clients sitting across about 7 Windows NT 4 terminal server machines with Citrix Metaframe.
Upgrade everyone in one night to the latest software, no problem. Roll out that bug fix, no problem. Set up 20 new staff, no problem.
That's awesome. We still use Citrix in our company. Works well enough even with over a thousand users across 60+ servers. Some bugs here and there but overall a solid experience.

So this is basically a 23 minutes cendio commercial, shwing off a single user using blender through the terminal session and claiming that someone else is working in another session (19:55), while proving a few xeconds later that he isn't (20:39 and 20:46).
Don't get me wrong: I really love the idea and I really hope this works as promised, but I haven't seen anything that convinces me.
As a 4year thinlinc user, it does what it promises. I've done a video demonstrating how you can even have hardware video acceleration on the remote session that you can even play OpenGL games on it (I'm not sure if it already supports Vulkan somehow), but during pandemics, I had 3 people sharing a single notebook at home and it worked flawlessly.

10 years ago, gaming on Linux SUCKED, but now we have thousands of Steam games that work fine natively or through Proton. Games not working has been the biggest hurdle to adoption imo. I'm a computer science nerd, but at the end of the day I still need a way to play my favorite games. Add to that way more Windows software works well or at least has a browser app like Office 365, its doable imo. I still want a pure Windows machine for maximum performance and compatibility, but I could survive on Linux
I'm in about the same boat as you, as a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer. Full Office 365 functionality (especially Outlook) and game compatibility are the only things Windows has going for it anymore. Even Microsoft doesn't care about Windows anymore. The entire OS is as important to their bottom line as computers are to Apple, ie, about a 10% rounding error. The truth MSFT doesn't want most people to know: Azure runs more Linux machines than Windows.
Could just dual boot which is easy and cheap these days
@@Kvantum What does Azure itself run on?
See I do automation stuff, think PLCs and robots. And all the software is built for windows.
SteamOS is awesome... almost as good as Ubuntu for a general Os for everyday use
You do know that UNIX/X always supported multiple users connecting from terminals; and back in the 90s and even earlier, this included graphical terminals like NeWS or X11 or Display Postscript (NeXTStep). Not to mention desktop, VNC...
All basically because UNIX and Linux are multiuser systems from the ground up. Always have been.
So as someone who daily drives Linux I'd genuinely recommend using Fedora if your machine is running brand new hardware, which based on the RTX 4090 is probably the case. That's simply because Fedora ships with MUCH newer kernels, meaning it has fixes and improvements for new hardware. It's also, in my experience, rock solid!
Also, I just ran glxspheres64 on my RTX 3070 Ti laptop GPU and I'm getting 10x the performance. Please install the Nvidia driver!!

There's a bug in your captions.
That sounds really funny ks
There's a slight t sound that could be heard. That's what confused the captions.
I rarely have captions on, but I spotted that lol, Didn't think anyone would call it out.
And with the statement itself, because you CAN do that in Windows 11.
Windows 11 doesn't provide any concurrent remote desktop support. It's in fact explicitly not allowed per the Microsoft license. There are third party apps that would give you access to programs on the Windows 11 machine that would allow concurrent access, but I'm not ware of any that give you the actual desktop to interact with. TSPlus makes programs available via web browser for instance, but not the desktop. VNC lets you access the desktop, and you can configure that to allow multiple connections, but then everyone is sharing the same desktop (they do not all get their own). You can install SSH servers and access programs, but again, no desktop, and no GUI at all unless you also have X forwarding setup (which is possible, but most Windows software isn't going to work that natively).
I just love how those guys are just fooling around with the tech they have just explained. It makes it even more then a tutoral, cause it although shows courage. Love it.
Most likely the reason you didn't see the pretty window when you went to install ThinLinc is because of that sh you put at the start of the command. You essentially forced the script to use sh as the script interpreter which doesn't have a ton of support for GUI elements. You could have run it by simply typing ./thinlinc-install and the interpreter called out in the script by the installer (most likely bash) would have taken over and ran the install the same way but with the GUI elements if available.

We use HP ThinClients at work, we've been running HP ThinClients for around 20yrs now at least :) Our Terminal Server is a Windows server, always has been. 5 of them in total for around 200 thinclients. I changed 1 of our stores to RPi 3Bs a few years back, worked ok, ran WTWare (when it was free) which was neat, but they actively refused to support several features that we were using from Remote Desktop Connection (Remote Control, Remote Control with differing screen resolutions, etc...) and then it became non-free.
Eventually gave up and went back to HP thinclients.
Do they provide directx accel?
And then there's me, using an HP thin client... as a home server.
@@MthaMenMon Most likely not. But for our purposes, as a point of sale terminal, we don't really need them to.
The company I used to work at in the 1990s used thin clients. The boss wanted us to have a silent work environment. It's funny when Windows people discover what Unix had 30 or 40 years ago.

Thank you for sharing, your videos always make me feel very interesting. I have been following you for a long time, haha. Your videos cover a lot about Linux and networking, and I feel that you are a very skilled operations engineer.

i LOVE your new editor.
the terminal instructions sounded a bit off to me... don't get me wrong, it's an amazing video and i'm glad you guys actually show what you're doing but there's a lot of edge cases where cutting corners could cause issues.
first, sh ./install-server sounds like a bad idea because the script has a shebang to specify the preferred interpreter and overriding that with sh is almost always a bad idea because that launches a barebones posix shell which can break a lot of stuff. just leave the sh part and instead give the script execute permissions or check the first line to see what interpreter it wants. note that some scripts will incorrectly request sh as interpreter while they should be requesting bash so i'd personally go one step further and run shellcheck on the script just in case.
second, dpkg install thinlinc*.deb isn't a problem until you have 2 thinlinc packages in which case it will probably install both. it still shouldn't cause trouble because it'll order alphabetically which effectively results in it starting with the older one but still, best to just specify the one you want instead of using a wildcard.
third, sudo su - is a pretty well-known yet useless command, use sudo -i instead.
again, amazing video, it's just that i've blindly followed instructions like this before which have caused me varying degrees of pain and i don't want other people to waste their time like that.
Imo installing a deb file should be avoided if a repository is available (which maybe there isn't but then I'd probably not use this software)
man i love the chuck team and their editing, i never knew id laugh this hard on a computer related video
