Yeah. So everyone should stop eating, drinking, fucking and driving cars, because they did this in nazi germany, too.
Btw, they didn't use hydrogen as fuel. They used it to lift the zeppelins (instead of using helium for this task, which is a, uhm, much more inert gas =) )

Windows and osx are way easier to use then linux.
At least for Windows, not really, IMHO. I used various free unices since 1998, so Windows 98 was my last Microsoft OS. Until recently, when i had to use Win XP because of hardware issues. IMHO ACLs or no rights managment at all, no free available documentation and dozens of running services just after startup doesn't make Windows easier to use than Linux.

In Unix, I can assign a file an owner, one or more groups, and the type of access I want groups, owner, and everyone else to have to that file.
I know, I know. ACLs (you are using NTFS, right?) are a bit complicated to someone used to standard UNI* rights managment. If you cannot find ACLs in Win XP Pro, just turn off simple rights managment in your explorer preferences.
I can also be logged in as a user, and then also log in as root if I need to make some system changes, without logging off as a users. In Windows, I must go through an annoying process of switching accounts to log in as an administrator.
Discover "runas" or "Fast user switching".
Finally, the system doesn't have a coherent way of managing permissions. For example, if I install a program as root/admin, it will create a directory in Program Files, and assign the permissions as such, that when a non-root user logs in and the program installed tries to write it's data to that programs directory, it will cause an error.
That's not the fault of Windows, it's the fault of the installed programm. A simple, but not very secure, workaround for me is to give write access to problematic files/registry values to a user who needs these.
Why can't Microsoft just borrow the Unix permission system, it is not like it is patented or anything?
The standard UNI* permission system is way more simpler than ACLs.
Until recently i only used Linux. But my new shiny hardware unfortunately isn't supported (sata_sil issues). So i had to use Windows XP Home (slightly extended through a registry hack). The last Windows i used was Windows 98, and i must admit that current Windows XP is not that bad, after all.
On my new hardware, linux kernels 2.6.15 - 2.6.16.* lock with an ata timeout error (sata_sil) when a bit more data is written to the disk (e.g. copying data over a network onto a sync mounted disk). So, for the first time in about 8 years (since 1998) i have to use windows at home. Linux on/with current hardware is still a PITA, so just keep your pseudo-elitist rant for yourself, ok?
if a country's laws, or the law a country decides on decree that a man changing his religion should be executed, then it is not the business of the rest of the world to critique. If citizens of that nation dislike the law they can work within their framework as determined by law to change that law...or chose other paths, or leave.
Not if the country signed a convention for the protection of human rights.
I would not recommend Ubuntu to someone who has the potential to climb the curve quickly. And of the dozens of people I've switched to Linux/Ubuntu in the past months, most have already switched to Debian
I used Debian for over two years. In the end i was always running unstable, because the stable packages were simply to old. As you might know, to keep unstable up to date requires ~200MB to download a week (because an update of a tiny library can generate a huge download of all packages which depend on that lib). I finally switched to Ubuntu because it has support for madwifi.
Now i am running Dapper (Ubuntu 6.10) for mainly two reasons: tetex-3 (improvements in pdflatex) and xorg-7.0 (DRI-support for prosavage8 videocards).
I would love to run Debian vanilla again on my machine, but i simply cannot wait your "fast" 18-month (1.5 years!) release-cycle.
Shouldn't a meteoroid with over 50 tons of mass be quite visible on entry into the earth's athmosphere (even through clouds)? Was a meteor recorded a short time before that time when the read rain fell in Kerala?
Just think, if you had to do a bit of graphic design which would be easier to pick out of the menu, GIMP or Photoshop?
None of the two. I would search for something called "Bildbearbeitungsprogramm". This whole question is only relevant if you're a native english speaker and therefore superfluous.

it means you can now install testing and use apt to get security updates.
