  1. Re:At home too on Why Munich Will Stick With Linux · · Score: 1

    I've been on Linux Mint since 6 and the only issues I had was with Dell laptops and Broadcom wifi chips. It was annoying to have to hook up wired to get the drivers but only took 5 min to get it going other non Dell laptop and wifi cards in desktops worked out of the box.

    What, none of all 5 of them?

    Now seriously, if you want to develop malware, you'd first think of "how many potential victims would I have?".
    Also... a Linux box is a Linux box. The difference between "server" and "desktop" lies in which software it runs, period. One could become the other just by installing something or enabling something.

    Question for you: if I have a Linux server and install KDE on it, or X - would you name it a "Desktop"? Or is it still a server? Or both? I'm confused.

    You poor guy you. Please refer to those using Windows Server with GUI option for an opinion on that.

    Don't get so rattled when people point out the obvious. As for bitter, sorry haven't been bitter since 2005 when windows Vista was replaced with Linux Mint and OpenSuse.

  19. I get those and other calls on TechCentral Scams Call Center Scammers · · Score: 0, Troll

    2-3 times per week usually its for SEO placement in google. I accept the call and wait for the person to start talking. Just as they do I say "Google Canada, how may I help you?" Then usally I hear "What" "Ummm" "Shuffle" and a "Sorry what was that" and I say "You reached Google Canada, how may I help you"? Then slience.... and they hang up fast

    A few times ago the girl sound hot so I decided to be nasty. I said "Hold on let me ask you this. Do you take it in the ass?" There some silence there. So I say "So I can assume that since you haven't hung up yet that, that is a yes?" I can hear people in the background as she still hasn't hung up the phone whlle I proceeded to tell her I'll buy the service if she takes it in the ass. After a bit she hung up.
