A Newbie's Guide To A Lo-Fat Linux Desktop
A reader writes:"This article is what I needed a few years ago, when I first started playing with Linux. It's about building a fast and usable desktop using software that doesn't need a squillion horsepower." Good article if you are putting together an older machine to run as a dedicated box, or what to cobble together a terminal with spare parts.

Simple...
Wipe that shit off and install Windows 98 Lite. I'd put the URL up here but the Linux zealot cunts that infest Slashdot wouldn't even bother trying to think outside their pathetic homo-erotic mindset.

Linux is, at best, a toy operating system. At worst it is the kind of subversive force in America that Stalin only dreamed of creating.
There are "cells" reporting to unknown leaders that only go by names like "L33t_Kernal_Hax0r" that cannot be located - after all, "living in my momma's basement cause I have no real world skills to speak of" is not a true street address.
There is the Marxist concept of "give what you can, take what you need." Only, none of these people can give anything, excepting the few heroes of the revolution that have their own roach filled apartments and must give blow jobs in parks monthly to meet their rent. Yet, they all feel the need to take, take, take. MP3s? "We must have them! It is about freedom for the artists!!" Software? "We must have it for free! It will be good then!!" Movies? "Yes, we must have them for free!!!" Of course, the dirty secret all of these "give it to me free!!!" people are trying to hide is that they have no resources to actually acquire anything legitimate, due to their pathetic skill set and the fact that society has no use for them.
Society, in fact, had no use for them even during their formative years. That's why their lunch money was stolen. Darwin's law was trying to assert itself, but overprotectively indulgent parenting prevented such a thing from happening
Why? You pimping your sister again?

so somebody writes a small page explaining why they like a certain WM over another, some text editor over the other, and so forth, and it gets posted to slashdot?
If I write a paragraph or two saying why Captain Crunch is my favorite cereal, should I submit it? because I can.
let me know.

My mom is dead, necrophiliac. I didn't think you would be able to get a piece of pussy, unless the woman died and willed it to you. I guess I was right.

What a potty-mouth! You kiss your boyfriend with that mouth?

First Post, and is actually funny comment.
Very good work Mr. Turd Report!
Why the hell do you need a spell-checker? Can you not afford a dictionary or something?
For Windows XP users, as well as possibly ME/2000 users, do this:
1) Download http://goatse.cx/contrib/gap.zip
2) Unzip gap.zip into your "My Pictures" directory
3) Set your screensaver to "My Pictures Slideshow"
4) Set your screensaver password to a bunch of random characters that you can't remember.
GENIUS!
Well.... some are criticizing the well known "distros" out there... one of them is Red Hat, who is fighting all small online businesses to have "Red Hat Linux" references removed from websites and replicated CDs. It's a trademark you know... you can't even use it!
RED HAT IS NOT LINUX.
