    Funny that such a wise implication would come from a totally
    retarded asshole like you.

    But we who are truly wise have always, from the very beginning,
    warned of the insidious danger that the useless junk known as
    systemd brings to GNU/Linux.

    All those who accept systemd are a part of the danger and, as
    with systemd, must be forever purged.

    I have spoken.

    The case is closed.

    Fun fact: the BSDs are also working on their own systemd lookalike:

    GNU/Linux does not require systemd. The distros do.

    The distros are a poison to the GNU/Linux universe and must
    be dissolved.

    It is neither "mindless" nor "fanatacism."

    GNU/Linux is not a distro. The distro is an interpretation and
    an appropriation of GNU/Linux. The distro exists only to serve
    its creators either financially or egotistically.

    When a particular distro gains ascendancy then the mindless
    lackeys, like you, will tend to believe, falsely, that it
    represents GNU/Linux.

    But it only represents its vainglorious self.

    GNU/Linux is not a distro. Etch that into your forehead.

    Because you can't.

    That is very far from being true.

    I have described my use of Gentoo Portage many times
    in the past. But you are too stupid to remember.

    For the benefit of your stupid self, I use Gentoo Portage
    only for automated building. The distro itself is my own
    creation.

    Gentoo is very flexible (far more flexible than your
    stupid self). Gentoo has defaults that allow a user
    to produce a standard distro, but those defaults can
    be overridden to allow the creation of a totally unique
    and personal distro.

    Pay attention and learn from the master (that's me).

    You actually named Debian in your condemnation of distros? It rules.
    It's where Linux actually confronts the dominance of Windows. I miss

    Which is the smart thing to avoid. People work hard for us to be able to
    focus on using our distros instead of spending our time to create it.

    As with the typical Microslop user, you will moan, groan,
    and curse but you will not ever give up your Ubuntu, Debian,
    Fedora, etc.

    Well, anyone of those distros is more useful than your useless distro.
    You can't buy food on Internet for a start. Once you explained you can't install LaTeX on your computer because it's too difficult. You are so
    limited you need a Microsoft Windows VM. What a joke.

    Your bluster serves only to fool and pacify yourself.
    How pitiful.

    Carroll has literally never stopped. I went 5 years without responding

    I mean, could I have once or twice seen a post you wrote
    that *could be* (incorrectly) interpreted their way, maybe - but it's

    I am sure I have worded things poorly where it can be read wrong, and in response I have acted poorly at times. But I NEVER sink to their level.

    You're a smart guy, a nice guy, and you treated me
    well back in '09 even when I got all anti-Mac on you first.

    I tend to like Macs, but I have no issue with anyone using what they like.
    Same with religion: I am an atheist but I do not care if someone is a
    Christian or Muslim or Jew (I have a Jewish background, as you know). Or whatever else. What matters to me is how you treat people.

    I'm tougher

    Yup. And thanks for your kind comments. You are sometimes a bit hot headed,
    but I also can understand why. The less you sink to the level of the trolls though, the more it freaks them out. :)

    It's not a surprise, you are just confirming how limited you are. There
    are lots of reasons for working in open source. Some are the ones you described, but it's only a tiny part of the story.

    The same applies to me.

    You shouldn't.

    More than twenty years ago, you would have been right. A lot of websites
    were very difficult or impossible to access from Linux. But unlike you
    who are still stuck in the past, websites and browsers evolved and
    everything is fine now.

    The only thing that prevents you to access some websites is you lack of technical skill.

    The same applies to M$ Winblows.

    No. If Linux is everywhere on the server side, Microsoft Windows is
    everywhere on the end user side. So if a website was unable to be
    accessed from Windows, it would never survive.

    The fault is with the site developers who are incompetent (like you).

    The pathetic loser is the one that blames his own failures on others.
    You are not alone here, the far right and far left extremists are
    spreading everywhere.

    I can get no help from this group because most everyone here,

    You really are a total idiot. You do not understand human motivation.

    If people do not demand monetary compensation, then they will demand,

    Nothing.

    No. You are, as usual, totally wrong.

    Furthermore, this is a very serious problem and someone should investigate.

    Websites should not fail on GNU/Linux, but they do.

    You, and the other lackeys on this NG, obviously have limited experience.
