Immaturity: the quoted IRC zealot, MALE, likely under 30 and more likely under 25, “dumb and full of cum” to use a more colorful description

Maturity: clearly being able to see the ridiculousness in the zealot mindset

Wisdom: knowing ahead of time that writing this blog post will have no effect on the type of people it’s targeted at, that time and life are the only things that WILL affect them, and… not writing the blog post

G2g591 says: one of the main reasons why there are so many “distros” is because different people want different software preinstalled.

If this were true, an install-time option would have been all that is needed instead of the 927 “distros” that we see in the Linux land. People come up with new “distros” because they find the existing “distros” unsatisfactory. The thing is, the real problems with Linux (such as too much undisciplined change or too many dependency entanglements) are not solved well by any “distro” – those are not really “distro”-specific problems.

There’s no need for “enemies” of Linux to spread lies and uncertainty. Linux certainly sucks, and truth hurts Linux plenty.

“Tom Cruise” , one of the main reasons why there are so many “distros” is because different people want different software preinstalled. Personally I use a distrobution which barely installed enough to install other stuff, so I have exactly what I want. It provides a very flexible desktop interface of YOUR choice.

I just wish the people who havn’t tried a decent distrobution would stop spreading lies and uncertanty when someone writes about Linux.

The very fact that there are so many “distros” in the Linux world tells you what you need to know. No one “distro” satisfies the day to day needs of desktop users very well. The open source programmers are unable to come up with a usable desktop OS in more than 10 years of trying. They are, however, able to come up with multiple redundant explanations for why Linux keeps sucking.

I wish the open source crowd just gave up. Just admit that Microsoft and Apple are better at software than you guys, and move on. Spare us all this useless discussion, at least.
