Hay look there goes another bandwagon... Watches Rakshasa hop on it.

This is a screencap, its also 4/3 so i would bet he is running a standard 19in LCD. 90% have a max res of 1280x1024. Explain to me O wize and powerful bandwagon hopper how he can get a screen cap of his OS in action at a higher resolution then his monitor displays... I know of one but lets see how slick you are.

If you were old enough to remember the launch of XP I bet you would have been crying wolf about that OS as well.

You've got to keep in mind how the system works, see. Windows has no reason to be secure - if Windows were a secure operating system like all of its competitors (whatever its other failings, which are all of it, OSX is still Unix-like at its core, so it's nearly as secure as the Linuxes and all the other variants about), that would put the firewall/antivirus/antispyware manufacturers out of business. And they couldn't have that...

Call me when you can run aperture on linux. As is the "noob distros" like ubuntu are the only linuxes an average person on the street can use. And never mind the in house fighting.

>>whatever its other failings, which are all of it OSX is still Unix-like at its core, so it's nearly as secure as the Linuxes and all the other variants about)

If you want to crash Linux, type:
:(){ :|:& }
in bash.
or
:(){ :|:& };:

Anyway, You forgot ease of use. The only reason why the average consumer would want to use linux is because its free and so is the majority of the software for it. Right now Osx is a better choice than linux because its easier to use than even a noob distro and can run on pcs as well.

First of all, secure != crash-proof. Second, ease of use only exists for the sake of people who aren't competent enough to use better and more difficult-to-use programs/operating systems. The only reasons to use nedit over vi, WYSIWYG document programs over LaTeX, Windows/OSX over most forms of free Unix-like operating systems, are laziness or lack of competence. And since the vast, vast majority of 'average consumers' are both lazy and incompetent, I guess I'd have to say you're right.
>> Anonymous
>>120066
Also, most popular linux distros (for n00bs anyhow) should be setting thread limits in either:
/etc/security/limits.conf
or
/etc/limits

... so unknown users won't accidentally screw things up through running those bash thread bombs. It's mostly zomg gentoo -O9999 ricers who fall victim to this.

PS: I was exaggerating the gentoo ricyness. It's actually a good OS for development work, and probably more stuff too.

First, let me refer you to>>120072, specifically the last sentence. Second, the correct response is to use the right tool for the right job, not to throw away a better tool just because it doesn't do every job. I have three boots - Windows XP for games, Windows 98 for legacy games too old to work on XP, and Linux for everything else.

Who the fuck cares about competence? Ease-of-use means exactly that, and one of the major points of even bothering to get smart is to learn how to more easily do something. Why stretch your balls if you don't have to?

OS X is awesome. If Linux didn't rely on it's target audience - the basement dwellers and geeks, those people who like to over-complicate things just for the fun of it- I'd have to say they would have a role model right there. Go become a new and much better OS X, and much more open. But keep thinking you're fighting a "revolution" without bringing everybody into it = keep failing with your awesome ideology but sandbox operating system.

We're fighting a revolution? I thought we were just using and sharing a technically superior tool that's free, open, protects your rights, and is available to anyone who wants it. If people are too lazy or (don't read this bit,>>120326) incompetent to get it and learn to use it, or are willing to waste huge amounts of money for inferior products (remind me again, just -how- much does Vista cost?), that's their loss. The fact that Linux is not (mostly) in mainstream usage does not mean it's somehow worse. If you don't want to use it, you're free to go ahead and not, but we're not the ones who are missing out.

>>Fail mac has been hacked.

'mac' is a type of computer from Apple, not the OS itself, which is the element which can be 'hacked' in the classical sense. Fail anonymous has no cognitive abilities. also, what 'hacks' have been done successfully? somebody 'cracked' OSX in a shoddy glue-and-popsicle-stick manner and compiled it for the x86 project. big whoop. aside from that, the only other unix-based exploits that i've heard of have been exceedingly minor or just theoretical test lab instances.

>>WHAT XEROX MAKES APPLE STEALS

is this in reference to xerox suing apple in the 1980's over the PARC GUI? are you refering to the case that was immediately dismissed in court? are you refering to the fact that apple made fair trades in stock for PARC engineer information?

>>Xerox was given Apple stock in exchange for engineer visits and an understanding that Apple would create a GUI product.

Vista is shit, why the fuck would you want an OS laden with DRM? No one intelligent should have Vista yet, if ever.
>> Anonymous
>>120417
The reason that Apple hasn't sued is because this feature was released in Windows 2003. If you don't believe me, they did a big segment on it during the offical launch. Vista got the "new" feature for free because Vista is based off the Windows 2003 codebase. Even in the betas, it looked exactly like the 2003 one. So please do some fact checking.

BTW: I do like apple's implementation a lot better. It's actually usable in a sane and intuitive manner. I would pick OS X over windows any day. Just don't bash MS like crazy though.

Now if only we could make the average Joe care about this and we might be able to stop it.

By the way, don't get a penryn architecture CPU, its loaded with the next level of Trusted Computing, trusted execution technology.

"All Penryn cores also include Intel TXT, previously known as Intel LaGrande Technology. TXT stands for Trusted Execution Technology and refers to the collection of devices. The Trusted Platform Module, or TPM, is one component. DMA page protection is another. "

I think it's cute how the only thing that Linux users ever show off is the XGL cube, and it's got to be one of the most useless features ever.

About the DRM in Vista, it's very easy to avoid. Simply refrain from taking part in the RIAA's money sucking schemes (don't buy from iTunes or Blu-ray/HD-DVD and you'll be fine).
