I also talk about the facts "M$ Windows VS GNU/Linux" with my friends. The big difference here is that they are MY FRIENDS so I DO NOT LIE to them.
Trust me, a *easy* way for a successful GNU/Linux propaganda is to talk (and possibly demonstrate) how GNU/Linux rocks when you are virus-cleaning your neighbor's computer at the same time. I don't know about you but I get called for this in a regular basis.
A better way would be to add a watchdog timer to your personal server that periodically checks for your activity on the system (last login, etc). If the timer expires let the system mail everybody automatically and trigger auto-destruction mode.
Next time you go on vacations, don't forget to ssh into the box just to refresh the timer or some people will die or think you died.
I installed OSS4 on my laptop just for the sake of trying it. What I was not expecting was the fact that I later on removed ALSA from the kernel and purged any traces of pulseaudio from the filesystem.
I really liked OSS4, the kernel level mixing works perfectly with every app (even those who still use the old OSS API).
Establish a openvpn tunnel over UDP. All network traffic tunneled through it, will be encrypted and with integrity ensured. If your wireless network link is too unstable, you will have plenty of dis/re-connections of openvpn but communications going through the tunnel will be intact.
For example, one day I connected home over openvpn and used nfs to transfer a couple of big files over a slow wireless link. After some time going on, I closed my laptop and put it into suspend and moved into another place and connected to another wireless link. After resuming the laptop, openvpn re-established the connection to home and nfs continued to copy the file.

For example, the lack of acceleration makes compatibility great across the board, but it makes it dog slow on every OS.
Not every, I have OpenGL and XVMC outputs on Linux which are hardware accelerated (by the glx backend and nvidia's xvmc implementation respectively). VLC is also benefiting from my CPU's MMX, 3DNOW, MMXEXT, SSE and SSE2.
Did you look through VLC's options? These video outputs might be Linux specific but it doesn't make much sense that the windows build doesn't include the CPU optimizations.

Ironic that you use the word "facts" then later refer to Microsoft as "M$".
Isn't Microsoft (MS) a multi-bilion-trilion-whatever company? If so, what's wrong of using M$ for that?
Bla bla bla. utter garbage talk.
No comments.
don't need the headaches and disappointments of Linux.
I don't comment opinions, we all have them.

Have you ever heard of the Linux based botnet? Neither do I.
I did, they are called n00bs.

I'm sure Dexter is around.

This is the third generation, the second was to fix speed degradation through fragmentation.
And the fourth generation will fix SSD's small life longevity due to massive GC activity.

The really funny thing about this comment is that it was labeled informative instead of redundant.
There fixed it for you.
It's because users of Microsoft services are more stupid than the general population. There, I said it!
We all know that, hence the redundant mod fix. :P

Nobody knows it.
Google doesn't have Clippy!!!! Who wants a integrated solution without clippy?
Sorry, I forgot to enable the [sarcasm] flag.

I read summaries and I can tell that this particular one is FUD.

Ah, it is explained then. Thank you for your comment.
But be careful, you are now on their blacklist.

Geezz, does this ever get old?
It is also fact cows can fly, I swear I saw one yesterday.
No funny? :(
it uses the Linux kernel indeed
Linux *IS* the kernel.
Geez, how many times do I have to tell?
Perhaps it should be Web 2.0 RC1?
No more blinking and sonorous ads please.

It was relatively big in size but it was comfortable to wear in my pockets.
Plus it's a great set-up for tried-and-true office humor; "Yes, I am happy to see you, but that actually is a Nokia in my pocket."
