You're like a shark in a goldfish bowl. We all see you sitting there and just laugh at you. And you're so ignorant you keep failing to see it. Oh goodness, that is just tons of malarky. At times, a make believe world is more valuable than facts.

It looks like debian 9 installs 3.04.

Can emoticons be concatenated into a string with a logical connection to the "real" world; that is the question posed recently by those astonished at the endless babbling of "advocates" and Cheetos smelling losers. You refuse to take culpability for your own actions. Words that are easily quoted. Vallor's behavior is altogether in all respects deceitful. There is zero question that as soon as any exonerated 'plonkee' does something to hurt the poor wimp's feelings that they will be reblocked. Why do you keep repeating yourself? 

Vallor claims to be the Linux master. Let us see him put up an example without the pre-made routines.Hell, just recently he was declaring himself the only "true Linux advocate", and claiming that "advocates" (in irony-quotes) are insisting desktop Linux is perfect as is.

BTW, I've already discussed that his use of "cult-like" to describe knowledgable posters is argumentum ad hominem, since he's likening them to hungry goats. Where did you find your scripts? I would help Klaus 'Super Troll' Schadenfreude directly but he is a cretin who distorts your words to effect his craving to call everyone a fool. Over and over, the refrain is he wants to "talk tech", but the guy spends most of his time whining about "obsession".

It's a never ending conflict, and Jonas 'The Fool' Eklundh is simultaneously unable to stop his trolling remarks, while posting with socks with a myriad of tells. Just look at your scripts and look at Steven Petruzzellis's, there is nothing for us to learn from an idiot like Jonas 'The Fool' Eklundh. But hey, let him keep making an ass of himself. I am sure one of his stooges will come to the rescue. Jonas 'The Fool' Eklundh showed himself to be a fraud by pretending to not engage Steven Petruzzellis via trumpeting 'goodbye forever!' and then engaging him anyhow by means of a 3rd party. The guy is as well liked as a fart in a spacesuit -- and with good reason. I think Jonas 'The Fool' Eklundh does not even know what is wrong with Trump.

John Gohde was once again a fraud by having the pretense to not rebut DFS through shouting 'Into the bin with you!' and then ambushing him again via another poster. If you have 'myFile.pdf' open in an application such as gedit and John Gohde wants to change its name to 'mack.pdf' via a GUI menu item while editing a script, that might be good. It's a poorly written flyer. John Gohde has already decided what he is going to say before he calls. What you say is beside the point. What DFS says is ignored. 

I think it is already over. 

And given how frequently it is clear that John Gohde's post is some twist of a remark DFS posted which had been a blow on John Gohde for something he did which was insane/inaccurate/etc... its really a common gesture of John Gohde's ever-present embarrassment for having been so routinely humiliated. DFS is a false advocate's biggest fear. Bravo, DFS, you are now living rent-free inside John Gohde's beady little brain. I know we have different perspectives about John Gohde.

How is bash on Linux doing anything above the lowest common denominator? 

Lots of jerks are still talking about the ChromeOS "interface" as if something like that even potentially could happen. "Now that was close" said Script 'The Flooder' Troller's wife. Script 'The Flooder' Troller and Klaus Schadenfreude both lie repeatedly and shamelessly and continue to do so. So no motivation in showing any further courtesy or restraint. How Script 'The Flooder' Troller determines when to use his flood script to disrupt discussions best http://usenet.sandman.net/misc/snit_flood. No no hell no. He never agreed to stop flooding. He lied about his trolling and that was that. What is your evidence?

It's easy for you to make that claim but we all know that
you can't tell shit from Shinola when it comes to computing.

"MediaMonkey?"  Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  Only a retarded juvenile would ever
use a program named "MediaMonkey."  It sounds like a stupid toy because
that's what it is.

What would you do if you had some DSF or DSD audio files?  Your junk
"MediaMonkey" would choke and puke.

On GNU/Linux, however, there is NO problem.

Furthermore, for its high quality, unparalleled software, GNU/Linux
uses only professional names like "mp3splt" or "mp3asm" or "mp3gain."
etc., etc.

Now go back to your Microshit toys.

Having to suffer the use of Bash shell would just confuse the general user. Troll Killer Snit owns vallor in every way possible. My view is that we should ALL report the flooding and then it will stop. He'd have to be afflicted with intense madness to be unsure of if he "once had" purchased a program. Sound like anyone in here? When a guy can not keep his lies straight and applies dishonest, self-image saving poppycock later, it's damn obvious what his trolling is. A shadow of false causation, projected wisely, at the wrong time. All that matters is that vallor gets to convey his automated call and then hang up and giggle about it. The fact that Troll Killer Snit is an innocent patsy on the other end of the phone is the game. 

So what is vallor's tool for the flooding deluge? AppleScript? That is the only language he knows, isn't it? He must be using it to create these stupid "spam" idiotic threads. My idea, vallor took some code that he hacked and pretended was his... he is feeding it data from the program, grabbing random paragraphs, then altering those using the Baum–Welch method and then he hand posts them because his obsessiveness enables him to do that nonstop.

OK.  Let me ponder that a bit.

A recording of Adele, the trash pop icon, will generate much
more revenue than a recording of the Beethoven piano sonatas.

An iPod, the trash pop music player, will generate much more
revenue than a grand piano.

Walmart will generate much more revenue than Sax Fifth Avenue.

I could go on and on.

Do we have a pattern here?

It seems that cheap simplistic junk of any kind will generate
much more revenue that items of true quality.

You've dug your hole now please jump into it.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Adele vs Beethoven
iPod vs grand piano
Walmart vs Sax Fifth

wth?  Every one of those is a nitwit, meaningless comparison.

MS and RedHat both sell personal and business software, cloud computing, 
middleware, development tools,  virtualization, and software consulting 
services.  They are direct competitors in many markets.

And MS eats Red Hat's breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I will note Red Hat is the clear winner in having and paying greedy 
"executives".

MS' Q1 FY19 revenue: $29.1B (annualized $116.4B)

Azure revenue for the recent quarter was up 76% from a year ago.
Dynamics 365, up 49%
Gaming, 45%
Xbox software and services, 36%
Office 365 commercial, 35%
LinkedIn, 33%
Server products and cloud services, 28%
Dynamics products and cloud services, 20%
Office consumer products and cloud services, 17%
Search advertising excluding traffic acquisition costs, 17%
Office commercial products and cloud services, 16%
Surface, 14%
Windows commercial products and cloud services, 12%
Enterprise Services, 6%
Windows OEM, 3%


Besides your zit count, what in your life grew 76% last year, Feeb?

They also price the Linux VMs MUCH (30% to 55%) cheaper than Windows'.
