No: I am completely right that it was the choice matra of the herd that I was mocking. How can you even pretend to know otherwise. As I discussed with TomB, this mantra is no longer used nearly as much - likely largely in response to my proving how absurd it was. Heck, before my noting the trade-offs in choice used to be used to make attacks against me that I was "anti-choice"... but it is now being pointed out that the false "advocates" (the herd) are now accepting the reality of these tradeoffs and no longer see those of us who note them as being anti-choice. So while perhaps I should not have mocked claims which have not been recently made (or are at least only rarely made), it did serve to show how the herd has learned - and this learning is consistent with the lessons I was explaining. So while the herd pretends to not read what I write their views have been changing in a way consistent with what I have been educating them about. They will deny the change in their views or, if they admit to them, deny it had anything to do with my repeatedly pointing out such facts. So be it. The fact the herd has learned and improved in this area is something I am happy to see - no matter what claims and denials are sure to come from my noting it. Before there are such denials, though, look for the last time the herd accused me of being anti-choice. They used to all the time (esp. RonB with TomB backing him at least once... and there were others). Now the herd realizes not only that I am not anti-choice, but that the trade-offs I spoke of which lead them to believe I was were, in fact, a good observation on my part.

Based on the same logic, do you think that if KDE and Gnome were to merge this would not reduce choice?

Ignorant accusations also bore me. But it is quite telling how you and others are making such accusations - trying to put me on the defensive and work to somehow disprove a false accusation so you can avoid talking about Linux, OSS, and technology in general. Face it: *nobody* believes the accusations that Onion Knight and Kaba are my socks... if someone did they would have posted evidence. Also of note is that it was Carroll who first started making these accusations - shortly after it was pointed out he uses so many socks he cannot even name them all. He runs when asked what names he has used. He knows there are just too many for him to remember... or so many he would humiliate himself to be honest about it. This is not the case with me at all. I have no such need or desire to be like Carroll and use an army of socks. And there is no reason to think you believe your accuations. -- The indisputable facts about that absurd debate: <http://goo.gl/2337P> cc being proved wrong about his stats BS: <http://goo.gl/1aYrP> 7 simple questions cc will *never* answer: <http://goo.gl/cNBzu> cc again pretends to be knowledgeable about things he is clueless about.
