I hate Lunix because:

  • It uses command prompts still
  • It can't run anything, unless it's an "open source lunix port" or whatever
  • I don't understand how you can have several windows open at once which aren't all maximized.




  • False; the graphical interfaces like GNOME and KDE mean that you can use the whole system without ever touching a command line, if you don't want to
  • False: projects like Crossover Office, WINE and WineX allow you to run almost every Windows application created on Linux; not only that, but several games have released Linux versions that are not open source (UT2k4, for one)
  • I don't understand what you're saying. All desktop suites can handle several windows open at once, nonminimised.. *looks at thirty windows open*

I hate Linux/Unix/whatever because it fosters uber-geeks who like to wax lyrical on one of the most boring subjects known to man, namely Linux/Unix/whatever I also hate it because it gives the local tech-head an excuse to complain about distributing documents over mailing lists as .doc files and other Microsoft formats.

Everything should be in plain text!

God- not another damn "my OS is better than your OS" argument. All of your opinions sucks, just like mine. Get used to it

I'd put that in light blue to show that I'm being sarcastic, but I'm far too lazy to do that. So just assume it was, then strike this comment from your memory. Thanks. [addsig]

The issue isn't Linux/Unix/whatever that they're arguing about. Most of the time, it's about software freedom. I agree - 'my OS is better than your OS' arguments are stupid wastes of your bandwidth. Just keep in mind that people who argue that Linux, or any other open system, is better than any other 'because it is' are not actually arguing the case of Linux, they're arguing the case of 'I'M RIGHT'.

Linux is a good operating system, because it promotes open standards and is great for tinkerers like me. Mac is a good operating system, because it is phenomenally easy to use, and lets newbies get into the whole 'computing' thing easily. Windows is a good operating system, because of the fact that there are so many application suites for it. But here's the thing.

You can make them all do the same thing.

You don't need Windows to run games. You don't need Linux to have a secure network box. You don't need a Mac to have a user friendly interface. Stop railing on OSes, and start railing on fanboy gits.

Well, in a similar way I'm sure you can get blood out of a stone if you try hard enough.

I don't understand your reaction to this, Lep. I'm not cramming Linux down your throat, I'm asking you to not jump to the conclusion that your opinions on OS choice determine the objective quality of other operating systems.

Heh, I like the idea of a flamebait colour, but didn't we already have sarcasm tags? Since when do we need to be told that a post is flamebait?

Did you read my post? I'm not trying to 'convert' anyone here. My point is that the issue that you seem to have with systems other than what you're familiar with is that the proponents of these alternate systems that you appear to have talked to are more keen on bullying frightened newbies into submission than on the relative merits of the operating systems. Go, use Windows, it's a great OS for games! I really couldn't care less! What I do care about, and this is what I was trying to say, is that you shouldn't blame a system for the people that try to push it at you. If you're doing that, you're putting all of the sane, regular people who like it and use it in with the psychotic idiot nerds from hell.

Ha! As if I'd try and change the mind of any of you here!

And my posts have only been to annoy you lot anyway, of course I know you can play such cutting edge games as ASCII Quake and... run game servers... and... there's probably a calculator, oh and the internet now. See, there's lots you can do with Lunix these days, they all have their strengths.

I'm not going to give you a big list of Things That You Can Do With Linux, Lep, nor a List Of Things That Unix/Linux Has Done For The World. A computer is a computer. If people are interested, they can find their own information on what you can do with different operating systems.

If you're trying to annoy me, it won't work
