I didn't see any compelling reason to upgrade to Windows 10.

All my stuff works. Socks works, Tor works, SSL is okay, QS
works. Windows 8.1 is a very reliable OS and superior to Linux
or Mac.

If that's your choice, that's fine. I won't try to talk you into
anything.

But as far as I'm concerned, what you're saying is like "My Ford works
fine, so I don't want a Mercedes."

Linux would be the Mercedes equivalent, right?

And Win-10-nic would be a YUGO

You'll never convince the world that Linux is the better OS. Been there,
done that and it's a plain bitch to work with. Great for the geeks that
have the time to invest in playing with it but it can be a real time waster
for those that want an OS to "Just work".

No...none of them do that perfectly but Win10 is perhaps the easiest, most
reliable OS to date that will load on meager and older hardware and get it
right the first time.

I have now done over 30 upgrades / fresh installs on various hardware (Asus,
Gigabyte, Dell and HP) that dates back to 2006 and I've only had to hunt for
one Asus hardware driver that Win10 couldn't find. That is frigging
amazing....

Last time I tried the so-called most user friendly version of Ubuntu on a
brand new build, it failed miserably and never could get a NIC driver or
video driver for it. Tried it on older hardware and it liked the old NVidia
video but screwed up the USB and DVD. Plus it constantly hung with error
messages that only a physics professor would understand. A mere mortal
doesn't stand a chance.

So if Linux is your choice - great, enjoy it but don't try to convince us
it's problem free - it isn't. It is also one of the most hacked server OSes
in the world too. Most of those big name hacks we've heard about this past
year were running Linux front-ends. Not exactly a secure system but yes, it
is less expensive up-front but over time, you pay.

Think hard, now: Do you think that if Linux was vetted and
pre-installed by the OEM, like Windows is, you would not have had
those problems?

Plus it constantly hung with error

FUD and idiocy. Linux is the most widely-used server OS in the world,
by far, and not because it's "less expensive up front". It's because
it's the best tool for the job.

There's nothing wrong with wanting something that works out of the box.
Millions of people are migrating to tablets for that exact reason. If
Windows ticks all your boxes, go with it, there's no reason to learn
something else just for the sake of learning it.

Bashing Linux doesn't make it better or worse, just less suitable for
your specific needs. The infrastructure that delivers our Internet
experiences is almost entirely Linux based, as are our mobile phones and
other modern living accessories. In a few years, our heating systems
will run it, along with our washing machines and fridges. The Internet
of Things is coming.

Desktop / Laptop computers are the last bastion of Windows and it serves
them very well. I have no issues with it.

Linux is an OS for those people for whom time has no value.

Actually, it's very useful for some software development and for
embedded products that need an OS, but of course it's not a consumer
product.

Even in the world of embedded development, semiconductor companies have
been dropping Linux development tools because it's just too much of a
hassle. If there was ONE version of Linux they might have continued but
they were bombarded with demands to support multiple Linux versions and
they couldn't continue, so now it's Windows only. Always amusing to go
to a hands-on seminar and see a load of Macbooks running Windows in
order to use the development tools. Apple could greatly increase Macbook
sales if they would just swallow their pride and offer dual-boot systems
direct from Apple so that commercial and business customers that need to
run Windows apps could do so without having to buy and install retail
versions of Windows. Just charge an extra $100 for a dual-boot system.

FUD = 'Fear' 'Uncertainty' and 'Doubt'. Generally does not refer to the
content itself, but in the effect it creates.

you said in reference to linux, things like 'it is also one of the most
hacked server OSes in the world' which is TOTAL ****. You must have
read that on a pro-Micro-shaft forum from a Micro-shaft shill, or from
intentional anti-Linux "FUD" literature from the early noughties.

There was a LOT of this kind of crap, back then. It's still
circulating, too, and NONE of that **** is true. It's all Micro-****
spreading the 'Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt' about Linux because they
CANNOT! PRODUCE! A! BETTER! OPERATING! SYSTEM! THEMSELVES!

only NOW it's 'Embrace, Extend, Extinguish' by attempting to integrate
bash with Win-10-nic. Same thing. Absorb it and add its uniqueness to
their own, like "the Borg", and then FORCE everyone into THEIR solution,
LOCK THEM IN, and *even* make them AFRAID to *CHANGE* (that thing so
embraced by MS shills and political liberals these days) to something
that's TRULY BETTER.

Yeah, I lie and spew bull**** in ways that cannot be quoted. It is am
AMAZING skill I have.

And then when those who troll want to "prove" otherwise they simply note my
noting this and then claim that I am wrong... going into idiotic meta-debate
mode without actually ever saying what they think I am wrong about.

Or they act like Marek and claim I was "owned" by Peter, whatever that
means, in a way that cannot be quoted... or I was busted using a sock in a
way that cannot be shown... or I... well, you get the idea -- no actual
evidence.

Does not mean I do no wrong, of course... but those who troll me do so
because they know THEY do a lot more immoral things than I do... and make
more mistakes.

Just amazing to watch.

What you are doing is authoring text and then falsely attributing it to me.
You are being dishonest.

Keep in mind you have made accusations against me you CANNOT back, and you
snip ALL evidence proving how you made an ass of yourself. Here, again...
just to watch you run.

Peter Köhlmann:
-----
For linux (for example Opensuse) this is just a few mouseclicks on
both side in *GUI* programs to get it working, all in all taking
less than a minute to do the complete setup

Since the lying imbecile claims that OSX is way superior to linux
(especially on the GUI), lets have a smalll video from that
dimbulb. I naturally expect that his example will show the
"challenge" to take substantial less time than on linux...
-----
Where the exact task as descibed takes *less* than a minute (in
fact, less than 30 seconds when you know how it is done) to do it
with a GUI.
-----

Marek:
-----
Nope, he asked that you do it manually, not with a GUI app
-----
Typical Snit, runs for the GUI app for sale because he's a
clueless Mac idiot.
-----
NFS is quite possibly the easiest of all sharing to set up. And
Snit immediately runs to a GUI util for $20 because he has no clue
at all how to do it out of the box with what Apple provided.
-----
Not only could he not do it with what comes out of the box with
the Mac, he had to run to a GUI util to do what a simple command,
which is built in, could do.
-----
He's a moron, Tom. This is the same guy that went looking for a
$20 GUI app because he's too stupid to type nfsd start on the
command line.
-----

Yeah... you screwed up. Now you are throwing a tantrum. Boo hoo for you. In
the past you have said you do not keep track of past conversations... but
you now CLAIM to... saying I did things you cannot show.

Comes down to you feel humiliated and are lashing out... throwing a toddler
tantrum. Why?

the geeks that have the time to invest in playing with it but it
can be a real time waster for those that want an OS to "Just
work".

Linux is an OS for those people for whom time has no value.

you are SO full of ****, you know. And so is the person you
responded to.

That's snit...


Yeah, I lie and spew bull**** in ways that cannot be quoted. It is am
AMAZING skill I have.

And then when those who troll want to "prove" otherwise they simply note my
noting this and then claim that I am wrong... going into idiotic meta-debate
mode without actually ever saying what they think I am wrong about.

Or they act like Marek and claim I was "owned" by Peter, whatever that
means, in a way that cannot be quoted... or I was busted using a sock in a
way that cannot be shown... or I... well, you get the idea -- no actual
evidence.

Does not mean I do no wrong, of course... but those who troll me do so
because they know THEY do a lot more immoral things than I do... and make
more mistakes.

Just amazing to watch.

You are being dishonest.

You avoid the initial topic... snip anything proving you to be an utter
fool... and then run to meta-meta-meta-debates. Not biting. Here is what you
are throwing a tantrum over:

Peter Köhlmann:
-----
For linux (for example Opensuse) this is just a few mouseclicks on
both side in *GUI* programs to get it working, all in all taking
less than a minute to do the complete setup

Since the lying imbecile claims that OSX is way superior to linux
(especially on the GUI), lets have a smalll video from that
dimbulb. I naturally expect that his example will show the
"challenge" to take substantial less time than on linux...
-----
Where the exact task as descibed takes *less* than a minute (in
fact, less than 30 seconds when you know how it is done) to do it
with a GUI.
-----

Marek:
-----
Nope, he asked that you do it manually, not with a GUI app
-----
Typical Snit, runs for the GUI app for sale because he's a
clueless Mac idiot.
-----
NFS is quite possibly the easiest of all sharing to set up. And
Snit immediately runs to a GUI util for $20 because he has no clue
at all how to do it out of the box with what Apple provided.
-----
Not only could he not do it with what comes out of the box with
the Mac, he had to run to a GUI util to do what a simple command,
which is built in, could do.
-----
He's a moron, Tom. This is the same guy that went looking for a
$20 GUI app because he's too stupid to type nfsd start on the
command line.
-----

Absolute proof Marek is lying about me being the one who asked for the task
to be done with a GUI. Also: he is wrong about there being anything wrong
with using a GUI.

Almost feel bad for the guy as he throws his tantrum.

Watching snit repeat the same snipped and taken out of context quotes
from Peter is quite funny. Snit's dishonesty has been once again exposed
and giving him some of his own medicine is just extra icing on the cake.

In order to trust snit you have to make the decision that the 100's of
people in Sandman's thread are all out to get snit for some reason and
are lying about him. What's particularly interesting is that snit has
been using this and other dishonest tactics for years.

Here is an example of snit pulling this same snip, misquoting method on
Tim Adams.
This thread is from 2006 !

http://www.archivum.info/comp.sys.ma.../03782/Re-Tim-
Adams'-Quote-Debate.html

Snit's been quiet lately. I wonder if the IRS or Arizona state officials
have contacted him yet?
I sure hope so.

By all means do show how! You know, like when I showed how you made a

Nor did I say I could! I could likely look it up, but, sure, I have no idea
how to do so off hand. Is this really your big issue... that I do not know
EVERYTHING and am completely honest about it? THAT is your beef with me?

He ran away like a screaming girl for a $20 utility. HAHHAHAHAHAHA That's all
Peter's challenge was... ::CHOKE:: Major ::CHOKE::


As shown above I pointed to the GUI utility because Peter asked for a GUI
solution. Your claim is a lie.

Off hand I have no idea how to set it up -- never have done so. Sure I could
do it if I wanted with a few minutes of searching. Marek is acting like this
is something I should be ashamed of... not knowing everything. It is just
weird.

And then he directly lies about why I pointed to a GUI tool... it was, as I
have proved, because Peter asked for one. I helped Peter with that, Marek
helped him with using CLI tools and going into more details. For me that is
cool -- what COLA should be (people helping each other). The fact Marek
feels a need to turn this into a vector for his trolling shows how insecure
he is.

There is no missing "context" that can change that. But Marek then trolled
me when I provided what was asked for (though Peter, bizarrely, wanted it to
come WITH the Mac, as if that matters... but he is technologically lost
anyway).

Snit's dishonesty has been once again exposed and giving him some of his own
medicine is just extra icing on the cake.


Ah, those damned unquotable lies of mine... and this excuses Marek for
acting as I never, or only very rarely, act:

Marek:
-----

-----
Typical Snit, runs for the GUI app for sale because he's a

in Sandman's thread are all out to get snit for some reason and are lying

Ah, you cannot quote me doing wrong so you say what others have been claimed
to have said shows it... WHAT? Does not even make sense. If you think I am
wrong quote where you think so. TomB did recently... and while I think the
context was missing from what he was questioning whatever -- I explained to
him what I meant. Either I worded it poorly or he misunderstood. Does not
matter which and there was no meta-debate. He and I acted like adults.

Marek is not able to.

A post from about a decade ago where I responded to someone trolling me by
not taking his trolling seriously. Wow. Is that the worst thing I have ever
done? LOL!
