Im 34 and totally agree, when I learned of these tools in the early 90's my thoughts were somewhere along the lines of "gawd", and we were at the tail end of dialing into unix machines as a service (as a need, like work maybe, hell as late as 2006 I was still subjected to green screens and HPUX, but unless this guy grew up managing wherehouse inventory...)
there is a model of effecency, how many archaic applications does one have to remember to do a task that a coworker simply uses a double click for?
I like old stuff, I was a kid of the 80's and a big retro nut, but at work, I have work to do and not fart around a CLI manually operating multiple programs to view a simple email
hell I stopped by my dad's house the other day and he had a 4 separate programs running at once, my freaking dad, who gets boggled by power cycling his router had a browser going with google maps, his GPS software, excel for calcing time and mileage, and skype talking to his brother
yes, cause look and feel absolutely makes up for 30 years worth of software that doesnt run on OSS, fuck they dont even have an office suite that is on par with office 2003
see there are bigger customers than some joe faping on slashdot saying he can mix the 4 or 5 default themes with a new font and still listen to his MP3's
why the hell are downloads in the library, why the hell when I bookmark (my bad dumb fuck star) a page its in a separate windows not the stupid bookmarks menu, why the fuck do you asshats keep making this thing more like chrome, if I wanted chrome I would god damn use chrome.
Great, next time you step in a car your driving drunk cause the machines are not that accurate, enjoy your 10,000$ loss, no license and no transportation
I am a totally unskilled machinist, its not that hard, kids are just as likely to have unsupervised access to a 3d printer as they are to machine tools, that will rip your fucking hand off available in any high school throughout the country.
oh no you clearly won, you are the one that had to take a snarky but true comment and make it god damed thread of the year, you clearly have a higher slashdot score than I do so you can die knowing your children's children have a epic legacy of some fuckwit keeping score on a website while calling people names and winning.
+1 slashdots, how does that feel, get a parade yet?
pathetic... and we still dont give a holy fuck about your wallpaper experience
whats the difference, its not 1983 anymore, you dont run one app and shut off your machine, when was your phone rebooted last? why cant they just zero out the flash memory, what is your point of RAM, if they are not going to delete it off your phone what makes you think they are going to delete it off their SERVERs

so how does it know that that drink you just ordered did not get handed to your new friend?
intel makes other families outside of the x86 ( like the strongarm) you dumb fuck
if they had good parts I would not be needing new ones as quickly, and they would not cost a left nut for best buy gear in a metal box
machine vendors generally suck, now that will be 149$ for a gasket please

quality animation? seriously ... the ponies would not have passed as a flash animation 10 years ago, and they say nothing relevant

well you win then, how does it feel to know that your pointless off topic comments gain more attention, thus dumbing down slashdot?
