7 Reasons I Won't Submit This To Digg
Comment in News (50 diggs, 5 replies) - on 08/18/2008
This is bullshit. Secretly he wants to be dugg. Secretly he wants everyone to like him. Everyone is like this. If he really didn't want to be "dugg" then he wouldn't have even bothered writing it. Then he moans that we don't digg his "good" articles. (lo … (see comment)

10 Reasons Why Ubuntu Linux is Better Than Microsoft
Comment in News (12 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/18/2008
Points 2 and 3 are exactly the same. Points 4, 6, 7 and 9 come with no explanation of why this is better, or who would find this better. Some of them are arguably wrong. The multimedia codec conversation is questionable. (see comment)

Why Choose Ubuntu?
Why Choose Ubuntu?
Comment in News (-1 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/04/2008
What a wishy washy piece. "Ubuntu is easy to use in that it is very Windows-like in operation, and yet it’s more Linux-like than other Windows user–oriented distributions." Sorry what? It has an interesting aim....to convert other Linux users to Ubuntu … (see comment)

Fedora 9: Was it worth the wait?
Comment in News (5 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/07/2008
"I was happy Fedora included Firefox 3 - not any of the beta releases mind you." - It ships with beta 3, which becomes the real Firefox 3 after a yum update. "So, was it worth the wait?" What wait? It was released on time, 6 months after the last versi … (see comment)

Compiz Fusion:An Unparalleled 3D Environment
Comment in News (12 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/07/2008
I've used Compiz Fusion since it first saw an article when I joined digg almost 2 years ago. (It was called Beryl then and had only just split from Compiz). I'm now running 7.6 and the cylinder desktop is really nice. The curved expo and multiple desktop … (see comment)

NVIDIA Open Source Driver Petition
Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/03/2008
They don't even need to cave. Their driver is at least 100 times better than any other Linux graphics driver there is, bar none, and in every single respect. Read the link posted by the first comment. Some quotes from it: "The nvidia driver is the only o … (see comment)

Ubuntu is the most hated?
Ubuntu is the most hated?
Comment in News (0 diggs, 1 reply) - on 07/03/2008
So what. Ubuntu is most hated and the most loved. That's what happens when you've got the most users. Use what YOU like and fuck everybody elses opinion. I use Fedora (and fucking hate it) because yum update random fucks things up. (yes...it could me and … (see comment)

Linux Tip of the Day - Edit run edit
Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 07/01/2008
Crappest trick ever. Firstly, you only ever need to chmod a file once and secondly....uhhh, well, this is just better: # this command creates the file echo "script" > myfile # this command gives you execute permissions chmod u+x myfile #this command op … (see comment)

Linux’s dirty little secret

"Maybe it’s me, but this feels like a lot of hassle to do something that should be a simple and straightforward process." Were talking about compiling an application from the source here. He's in his only little world where doing anything outside what he … (see comment)

MICROSOFT: Open Source is a Bigger Threat than Google
Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 06/25/2008
A lot of people are paid to write free software. At the end of the day developers do need pay but someone has to write free software. By your logic, the H.R. department at a company should hold all the corporate documents ransom so the company are forced … (see comment)

MICROSOFT: Open Source is a Bigger Threat than Google
Comment in News (1 digg, 1 reply) - on 06/25/2008
With exceptional quality. I'm not a troll but Apple is still growing despite open source distros picking up steam. Microsoft's tactic was to impress music rights holders (RIAA) by integrating DRM into Windows - hence Windows will have all the music, movi … (see comment)

No. (And I am a professional software engineer) Here are some reasons why I am not scared of open source. companies need software, be it open source or not. They often need customised features that allow them to get a head in business. They could pay so … (see comment)

Are There Any Evil Distros?
Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 06/17/2008
All those suggestions aren't very evil. My vote goes to Novell Suse Linux which is the first and biggest distribution of Linux that actively seems to "accept and promote" that Linux infringes Microsoft Patents (why else would they sign the deal). The incl … (see comment)

The 15 Most Important UNIX commands
Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 05/16/2008
head is redundant. who uses that? How can 15 been more "more important"? Most useful perhaps , but not more important. You can't even "run" linux without fdisk, shutdown, chmod, chown, useradd, mkext2fs etc. (see comment)
