Guest requiemnoise Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Its ironic, my windows install seems to be fine after nearly a year, but Ubuntu is less than a month old and already gnome is broke. That's what windows users like to say before they go on the net... They all say they are virus free too. What a concept, definition based cure... Maybe, I am safe. Maybe, I am not. Maybe... Just maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 No mate, its called anti-virus, a local firewall and a hardware firewall. Its really not that hard to use windows without getting a virus, or spyware. Why do you have such a bee in your bonnet about windows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you have such a bee in your bonnet about windows? once again, i don't think you really understand about the windows libraries. let's talk about something else. i don't want to be rude, but this isn't a good debate.

VaKo Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Why not? Explain your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest requiemnoise Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Why not? Explain your point. Do you program? Do know how kernel works? Have you really look into how OS functions inside? Hey, it is a good thing we have choices. However, if you want a toaster that you have to constantly mod, clean, exploding toasts make your heart fill with joy, set all your toasts on fire, and reboots, go Windows. If you want a good programming and computing environment, go LINUX and (x)BSD. We got options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 requiemnoise, I don't really understand what you are talking about of half the time, you seem to talk in non-sequiturs. No mate, its called anti-virus, a local firewall and a hardware firewall. Its really not that hard to use windows without getting a virus, or spyware. Why do you have such a bee in your bonnet about windows? once again, i don't think you really understand about the windows libraries. let's talk about something else. i don't want to be rude, but this isn't a good debate. How is that related to what VaKo said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deveant Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 i like toast. You keep saying that Windows is 'evil' and that it cant do its job, but u fail to see, that windows is the one making the cash, Mac is pullin in second, and over 3/4's of the earths population has never even heard of Linux. Windows does its job, and does it perfectly, it is built for a computer 'user', who checks there Email, Makes presetations, Watches / Downloads / Edits media. If you wanna know what Windows is built for, then simply just check the products that MS have to offer, Windows will run them perfectly. MS un-stable? ok im no programer... but ive tried. Ive never had an issue, were my computer has crashed running one of my applications under perfect conditions, the only time she crashs is where my Yuppi'ness programing skills come in, and my program becomes more deadly than anythink else (sadly way~ to offten).

I can't convince someone who never really tried. It is like trying to convince someone some place in Africa is more beautiful than here. If you never tried, it is pointless. That is why I didn't want to further the argument. It is pointless to argue if a person hasn't compared. It seems to me, I don't think some of you do what you say for living. I might be in a wrong forum. It seems like most of you are students, not IT or security professionals. I am sorry I was intruding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I'm not sure what your trying to say. My point is that Microsoft, there tactics and there products shaped the idea of a home computer in the 90's and this its subsequent evolution as a product. You may not like what they have done, but you can't change history. Yes, they may have acquired, copied, stolen, borrowed, bought out, finagled, lucked and lawyered there way to the top, but you can't doubt there influence over the evolution of the home PC in the mid 90's to early 2000's. Laptop design is an example of this. Without there global influence I doubt we'd have the same level of uniformity in todays PC hardware design. MS's market share would probally be split between a handful of Apple-esq companies with competing platforms. Despite not being a programmer I do use *nix for both servers and desktops, so I do understand the differences. What I'm asking you to do is to explain why the windows libraries make windows bad. If you have knowledge I don't have, I'd quite like to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather know that no matter the type/brand/size/color of bread/muffins/bagels I buy my toaster will cook them, then have my toaster never burn just one type of bread i like toast.

Guest requiemnoise Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 calling this site hak is very misleading. anyway,good day. if he does use Linux/BSD, i don't have to answer his questions. installing and using an OS is a very different subject. i didn't know the level of discussion until now. you guys have a lovely night.

No but what did you expect after reading his previous posts? I just cant understand why after being asked several times he couldn't explain what his problem with windows and windows libraries are although I'm sure even if he did post it no one would be able to understand.

Because he had no answer, he was blatantly trolling. Just another of the "Micro$haft Winblowz suxx04rz" group I'm afraid. Anyway, show's over, move along, nothing to see here.
