Agreed. His moving of goal posted was absurd, esp. since his video showed him FAILING at even two, and to get the two he needed to move away from the idea of having a general purpose machine. Gee, a script for every task... completely absurd. As I noted, the focus on recipes is clearly specific, but it could also be online receipts (I get those, put notes on them, save them as PDFs, and even email them - same things) or craft ideas (same thing... I do them all with those, too), or more. For my videos I did not focus on making specialized global scripts. No need. Just used my system as it is. Even for his absurd get 100 I got all of the ones on the home page in under 3 minutes with no changes to my system *other* than adding a program I already had to my dock, allowing it to update when I opened it, and changing its default download folder: <https://youtu.be/c65ojXTxynU>. There have been times I wanted to do more. Years ago when someone in CSMA was inexplicitly lying about his CSS being valid when it was not (oh no, I noted he had some bad CSS... the shame... whatever), I did a small amount of work to prove no example of his CSS (or HTML for that matter) stored in the WayBackMachine archive validated. <http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/sandmancheck-css.pdf> <http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/sandman/sandmancheck-html-detail.pdf> Had some other variations, but to really blow Owl's mind, here is one with the archived site and the CSS and the HTML validation for 114 pages: <http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/sandman/sandman-archive.pdf> He moved goal posts to try to show his Linux tools as better. Now to some extent when you start getting to this level of scripting and the like you get to the point where programming skills matter - and he claims to be a programmer I believe. But I am not... and still did this with relative ease. Will be interesting to see how he responses. -- * OS X / Linux: What is a file? <http://youtu.be/_dMbXGLW9PI> * Mint MATE Trash, Panel, Menu: <http://youtu.be/C0y74FIf7uE> * Mint KDE working with folders: <http://youtu.be/7C9nvniOoE0> * Mint KDE creating files: <http://youtu.be/N7-fZJaJUv8> * Mint KDE help: <http://youtu.be/3ikizUd3sa8> * Mint KDE general navigation: <http://youtu.be/t9y14yZtQuI> * Mint KDE bugs or Easter eggs? <http://youtu.be/CU-whJQvtfA> * Easy on OS X / Hard on Linux: <http://youtu.be/D3BPWANQoIk> * OS / Word Processor Comparison: <http://youtu.be/w6Qcl-w7s5c>

We can re-hash this a many times as you like: OS X, Windows, and Linux all have things such as saving to PDF in the print dialog. Yes, this can lead to some confusion as it is tied to the underlying architectures and not actual printing. I agree. But once you get over that "bump" it makes sense. > You really need to reassess your definition of "streamlined." Makes a lot more sense than leaving the program to go to the desktop. By the way, I asked an unrelated question in alt.os.linux.mint. A real question... but I did make sure to speak of "Firefox's print menu". Nobody seemed confused. They even referred to it as that. Your games about the print dialog being out of the program in the same way the desktop is shows you are just being silly. -- * OS X / Linux: What is a file? <http://youtu.be/_dMbXGLW9PI> * Mint MATE Trash, Panel, Menu: <http://youtu.be/C0y74FIf7uE> * Mint KDE working with folders: <http://youtu.be/7C9nvniOoE0> * Mint KDE creating files: <http://youtu.be/N7-fZJaJUv8> * Mint KDE help: <http://youtu.be/3ikizUd3sa8> * Mint KDE general navigation: <http://youtu.be/t9y14yZtQuI> * Mint KDE bugs or Easter eggs? <http://youtu.be/CU-whJQvtfA> * Easy on OS X / Hard on Linux: <http://youtu.be/D3BPWANQoIk> * OS / Word Processor Comparison: <http://youtu.be/w6Qcl-w7s5c>

You can make all the idiotic suppositions you want, but I prefer to focus on technology and workflows and productivity, efficiency, and error-reduction. Here, just made yet *another* video for you... I keep showing you what I mean by context and what I think you would find very hard to replicate on Linux, but I am open to you showing me I am wrong. And, to be clear, when I say "replicate" I do not mean click-for-click or the exact same way, but in a way that is as clear and direct and, well, streamlined. Made this one for you before... do not think you commented: Context: <https://youtu.be/mb3Y7xjwnoo> Save and Print Recipe with Notes: <https://youtu.be/NPM_WldEBs0> More on Context: <http://youtu.be/fRyYZD15s0c> The first "Context" one is long and rambling... second one not so much. The point is to show you all these features I talk about are always there but not in the way.

The point is to show you all these features I talk about are always there but not in the way. Also am very clear where OS X is not perfect. It also shows how the print dialog is more tied to the program than leaving the program to go to the desktop. Really, Owl, TRY to stop playing games where you back yourself into a corner having to pretend that the desktop is as much a part of a browser as the browser's print dialog.
