no, like when I was going to look for a specific electronics part and it brings up doggies, yes google perfect I have never searched for doggies in my entire life but I am constantly ordering diodes, thank you for your great service, it makes goggling for something with my laptop impossible
and yet I have to google "something" just to have the option of shutting it off
I am just going to copy paste this since everyone in slashdot just accepts whatever "features" they want to shove down our thoats and I dont feel like typing it out for a dozen sheep
"then it pops up on the next computer I use, maybe I want to delete cookies then I have to constantly turn of the fucker, what If I am one of those people who clear cookies every time my browser closed
Sheesh they can handle my documents just fine, I am almost always signed in MAKE IT AN ACCOUNT SETTING, its not that fucking hard, but NO they want to shove it down your throat so its inconvenient to not use it"

its when the page doesnt update every fucking time I type in a letter frantically trying to guess what I mean, often with not even funny anymore horseshit
let me type and when I am good and GD ready for the query to be executed then I will hit enter
how do you even play fallout3 without vats, you can dump 6 clips into a super mutant and still not take him down, but it might be 5 shots in vats with a souped up SMG
I wont take my advice from some douchebag marketing director that is only in the job because of his last name, while I might add working at a vapor fad company that will cease to matter any given time now
and hey douchebag, you know how hard it is to make a fake facebook account, none at all, you need a photo (LIKE OMG where am I going to get that) and some bullshit name. Sorry to disappoint but that profile with Pamela Anderson's picture and the name Hard M. Knockers aint fucking real genius, you might know this if you earned your position in life instead of taking someones job
nonsense what the fuck is your deal? what can I say I plugged it in the other room I brought it back after dusting it out and now linux and only linux starts up in 640x480 with an option to goto 320x240
I reinstalled drivers it then gave me 1024x768, I edited xorg.conf and it reverts back now with 1152x864 or whatever
SORRY ITS MY FUCKING FAULT THAT LINUX IS BROKEN TO THIS POINT no kindly go fuck yourself since your only helbent on telling me how much I suck, worthless fanboi anyway cant fathom the thought that OMFG linux is not the right tool for every job, fucking garbage cant even detect a monitor correctly, windows 7 isnt having this problem
here is what happened, I plugged it into a 1024X768 lcd for a couple hours, then I plugged it back into my 1280x1024 screen, after fucking with it for nearly a solid day I have it running at 1152x864 (what the fuck is that?)
I did not know linux was such a fragile chunk of shit that plugging your machine into another monitor would pretty much fuck my system. and ya I edited xorg.conf it just pulls a backup out of its ass and resets it to whatever the hell it wants anyway
"You just covered what Ubuntu comes with out of the box. Except for the AntiVirus... Linux does not need one."
so what is the advantage to Joe to sit down retrain all his employees on new software that does the exact same thing that windows is doing just fine? And the single click install is a mixed blessing, for every decent app in there there are 1000 broken chunks of shit and 1000000000 options for each, unless you know exactly what your looking for its not much better than apptitude
"Windows is the one that is crippled. You obviously have not used a modern Operating system in several years to even think that Linux does not come with everything needed for the home user and many business users."
Obviously your being too much of a fanboi to actually fucking read, I never said that linux didnt, but where is the advantage to using a confusing and constantly changing system for email when a windows box does it fine
""posted from mint, which magically woke up and will not work at 1280x1024 anymore, though it has been for almost a year now" Ohh, you are using a unmaintained offshoot. Please use a STABLE release of a well maintained Linux release. Ubuntu 10.10 is highly stable and does not fail on stable hardware. You do know you dont have to upgrade when a upgrade is released...."
Good for fucking Ubuntu 10, I dont like the desktop, oh but you can change it well fuck that I want to use an OS not fucking engineer it, this is a fatal flaw for the linux desktop that YOU PEOPLE just dont get, not all of us want to spend our lives fucking with a stupid OS.
Also first you tell me I need to run a STABLE release, well fuckwit I am, then you tell me I dont need to upgrade when a new release comes out well fuckwit I didnt so what the hell is your point?
ok what? most people are going to buy a pc, and whats on there? pretty much everything you need, cd burner applications, movie editors, media center hell most even come with a home version of MS office, anti virus? you know MS has been giving one away for a couple years now and its actually better than most commercial ones right?
linux users are the shacked ones, dependent on whims of egomaniacs, and in a constant state of broken, your constantly having to fight with it, which is fine if that is your thing but I usually turn on a computer to get something done, not fuck off all my time.

Thanks I will go correct that right now
no I wont cause A) I fucking cant so whats your point and B) I really dont care

To tell you shit after it doesn't matter and wont do anything about it anyway
dumbas troll article based on game show science might be fake, in other news a sea erchant died the president will be speaking at its funeral
"LED module ($15)"
fuck off
a bit of both, most had a dreamcast day one and got rid of it when ps2 went on sale
so fine fucker, when can I expect you to deliver my new monitor since the one I have now is not up to the fucking standards of some linux troll
yes we will ignore the troll trying desperately to find any loose thread
ignore Jedidiah he is in a tizzy cause people might have a valid reason for not using linux
nonsense what the fuck is your deal? what can I say I plugged it in the other room I brought it back after dusting it out and now linux and only linux starts up in 640x480 with an option to goto 320x240

no kindly go fuck yourself since your only helbent on telling me how much I suck, worthless fanboi anyway cant fathom the thought that OMFG linux is not the right tool for every job, fucking garbage cant even detect a monitor correctly, windows 7 isnt having this problem
well if I didn't edit anything I would still be stuck at 640x480 or 320x240
so its an invalid point isnt it

and what happens when that 1 mission critical software package will not run in linux, fail
The powers are going out of their way to reinvent the desktop and fucking it up every chance they get
