If I understand it correctly it means, according to Wikipedia, "someone who is too lazy/stupid to get a real job. Who wants to sit around all day, playing with their Mac (what else?) and waste time on dumb pointless sites like Twitter."
I forgot, she's a "sort of celebrity".
Which means no one's ever heard of her.
At the end of the day, who gives a shit?
Grow up, get out into the real world with real responsibilities to concern you.
Oh no, perhaps I'm harassing her now as well!
More toys thrown out of the pram in another fit of immature petulance.
Seriously, what is it with ubuntu that everyone feels the need to speak about it? There is a new version of Ubuntu, so what. In the summary there was also e mentino of Suse's package for the HP notebook, why don't I hear anyone about that?
And about all the other linux distributions, why not mention those as well. There are many ``yet another linux distro''s out there, but also enough interesting, unique one which ad value to the linux distribution landscape.
Diversity differs!
Ubuntu gets more mentions because it's more popular. Because it's fast becoming 'Linux' to those oft mentioned, "know nothing, new users". That's how things work, not just in Linuxland but out in the 'real' world too. You or your product are more popular, have a higher profile, better marketing, whatever and you are going to get spoken about more. It's that simple.
Ubuntu deserves the attention it gets. It's achieved something no other distro has done. All those other Linux distro's you mention will benefit from Ubuntu's achievement(s). One way will be when some of those "know nothing, new users" have used Ubuntu for a while they'll have heard about Slackware, Gentoo, Arch etc. Then some of them will try out those other distro's and learn even more. To their and OSS's mutual benefit.
I personally don't use Ubuntu. I have done and it would be my immediate recommendation to anyone wanting to try out Linux.
We really should try to support Ubuntu. Most of us do, the elitist knob-ends voicing their distaste will eventually go away like the dinosaurs they are.
Slashdot Mirror
"His findings will also appear in the June issue of National Geographic and in the television special "Stonehenge Decoded," to be shown Sunday."
What a strange coincidence(?)
An important discovery is announced immediately before the airing of a TV program about Stonehenge featuring the same archeologist's findings.
The mystical power of those stones is awesome!
a "social-media insights consultant"?
