It's not all that common that you'd need to compile and install with today's distros.
-40hz (September 14, 2012, 10:21 AM)
Depends. *buntu is known for broken packages, so self-compiling is a good choice there.
Or just choose a better distribution.

A bit, thanks. :)

(OTOH this seems to be rather subjective. I mean, "4" is "medium trollness" (for you) where "trollness" is a synonym for sarcasm which is not actually a good idea. I might be sarcastic at times, but the difference between trolling and being sarcastic is that trolling is only destructive and not a good way to transport suggestions.)

Ah, that peaceableness.  :-*

I love how you even rumble without me writing anything, young friend.
Could someone please finally remove the personal attacks against me?

Less attacking and more answering my questions ("Why?") would be good for the forum peace too, pal.

Shades: Tried PC-BSD?  :D

You never explained yourself about your views, you pushed your observation.
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 06:52 AM)
Oh, my views should be known from what I post.

You just made attacks on people
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 06:52 AM)
Vice versa.

and presented so called FACTS which are mere observation.
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 06:52 AM)
Nope, they're facts. Things I don't know for sure are usually stated as a question, like: Why?
(What about an answer instead of arguing with me by the way?)

All of your so-called facts are just your observation. Live with it.
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 06:52 AM)
So "Linux is always better option" is what, precisely?
Right: just your observation. Live with it.

But don't condemn me for not sharing it.

Yep, we are together, and as such it is foolish to call people here a troll just because they don't follow recent hypes.

See, even asking "Why?" as a reply to the statement "Linux is better" is considered "trolling" here. The young internet generation does not know real trolling anymore.

It is not always my intention to make fun of people because they use Linsux, SackOS, BSDumb or Windoze (look, that works for quite everything!) or whatever the currently hyped operating system is. All (almost) I have a serious problem with are people who try to evangelize other users for their own system without real arguments.

mahesh2k tried, I asked why, he called me a troll.
Hey, moderator, someone here does not follow the hype. Ban him!

I am pretty sure I am here because DonationCoder is usually open for technical discussions. I did not know it is against the board rules to question the advantages of Linux and OSX. Sorry, must have read them wrong.

I don't hate Linux. Your assumptions on its advantages are plain wrong, that's all.
Oh, right: Call it a flamebait when someone points out your mistakes. Well played.

More you use windows, less usable it becomes
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 04:58 AM)
Bullshit. That urban myth is not true anymore since... uhm... Windows Me? Or Windows 98?
Of course a system with a lot of auto-start entries will start slower.

Even Linux.

Now what?

On the other hand, OSX based on unix is perfectly fine.
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 04:58 AM)
OSX is not based on Unix, it only uses parts of the FreeBSD code. So does Windows.

Doesn't break or gets crashed with official softwares and upgrades.
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 04:58 AM)
And has most security flaws of all major operating systems according to Secunia. Great.

Linux is always better option
-mahesh2k (September 05, 2012, 04:58 AM)
Why?

Because Linux is a system for bumptious kids while Windows is a system to work with.

Most notable distributors are similar.
