The author of TFA appears to have misspelled "obstruct people posting legitimate content in myriad frustrating, confusing and probably threatening ways".
But the point remains that to default to these "Oh, Apple has done it so well and everyone should try to be as good as Apple" really overlooks some striking details.
Seems that what Ubuntu really needs is a reality distortion field.
If you live in London, one man's Polish is one man's cheap plumber, and another man's tenant who'll happily share a 3 bedroom house with 27 others for 100 quid each a week.
it's that indefinable quality that makes good closed-source software feel good. Don't get me wrong, I'm used to gnome and KDE, and they're impressive efforts, but they've not had hundreds of focus groups full of arts students and old ladies.
Well apparently, Microsoft do have all that, and more. Yet they still come up with crap. One example: you disconnect from a wireless network and instead of disconnecting just this time it disables it from automatic connection. Why? If I wanted to do that, I'd go to the approprite tab and do that. If you go into a restaurant and one day have a different meal to your favourite that you normally order, does the waiter decide you're suddenly allergic to it and never offer it to you again?
Don't get me started about network connections having ONE (1) main property setting and ONE (1) alternate. If, like me, you often connect from four or five different places, you're forever frigging about with the bloody settings.
And another thing - are slashdot ever going to make the frigging <P> tag work properly? As in, not like bloody <BR>? Sheesh. Not M$ fault, just bugged me AGAIN while writing this post.
I'm sure that you're an expert on the economics of the aerospace industry and it was your cat, pawing at the keyboard while you were phoning your broker, that thinks people in the UK use Euros.
You know, the ones that openly call for killing infidels? The ones that make you remove references to Piglet?
It's mostly jews and gays the barmy imams hate, so that's OK with the trendy lefties who are running the country. Concern about antisemitism or homophobia is sooooo 1990s, dahling. That wicked USA is the fashionable figure of hate at the moment.

Must do, because it's not like you can get margaritas just anywhere, is it?
I was just going to register http://www.pootube.com/, but it's taken. To go back on topic, so is http://www.suetube.com/.
But now you don't have France on your side. Mind you, neither do we.
Odd thing is the <P> tags do work alone if you post as "Plain Old Text".

Would you ask it to bring me a beer and maybe some nachos, please?
Seriously, 8.3 kilos is about 18 pounds. I have a 5.5 kilo 17" one and that's not easy to carry any appreciable distance.
I think pHatidic meant with a girl.
Whoooooohs!
I think that's what they mean in the UK when they say someone is "helping police with their enquiries".
IANAL. YMMV. VWP.
You've never driven on the M25, have you?
(Had a few beers as is right and proper for me, not sure if I'm joking or not. Mod gently, kind sirs).
