I'm not infuriated, he wants me to be but I am busting a gut because Silver "Christ Hater" Slimer's idiocy is so transparent. He actively did not mention all the specifications that he would later dismiss... and we all know why. At least he has his shills to back him. 

You're clueless! His desire is to see me chased away by the spraying of the groups outside. And hey, that could work.

Steve Carroll calls it "obsessing" over him, even though he continues to give rise to that selfsame criterium. The text of the post is a bunch of Steve Carroll-like crap. That points to one person. 

I have worked in or with the PC design industry for more than 20 years. I have had a contract with Fortune 500 companies working with the automotive industry and the finance sector. Never, not one single time, was I at any point told to not pre-install any other OS. We sold Netware, Apple II, HP-UX, among others as well as Windows on our hardware. Now why the need to open a ticket via direct input in an embedded system? Whatever, he didn't list this as part of his unsurprisingly never ending expansion of 'barometer' <eyeroll>. 

With no proof at all, as is expected for Steve Carroll. Steve Carroll can only understand from the perspective of a sociopath. You never take responsibility for your own words. Posts that are easily quoted. 

This is something you merely pretend to understand.

No.  I am saying that some tasks are highly inappropriate for
the GNU/Linux OS.

Playing hoaky Blu-Rays (and anything on Blu-Ray is hoaky) is
inappropriate.  GNU/Linux powers the world's supercomputers
for chrissake.

Would you want to include the Kazoo as part of a symphony
orchestra?  I certainly would hope not.

Let's leave the kiddie junk to a kiddie OS, and those are
Microsoft and Appil.

Playing videos of different sorts is a perfectly fine task for a desktop 
OS.

It also powers desktops.

Irrelevant.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

Disagreed. If anything, Linux is much better than Windows at playing 
media. For one, the operating system lets you know what codecs you need 
for whatever video you're attempting to watch and gives you the option to 
download them. In Windows, you have no idea unless you do some research. 
Linux is absolutely stellar for media.

So we should only calculate stuff and ignore every other task?

How about we do the opposite and do everything Microsoft and Apple can do 
BETTER as well as much more?

Either way, you're inspired me to go back to calling the operating system 
GNU/Linux. Thanks for that. :)

As opposed to:

"tasteless soup brewed by pre-teens in a soiled toilet"  (Feb 2014)

"an unstable piece of garbage" (Feb 2014)

"an awful product" (Feb 2014)

"the black hole of operating systems"  (Mar 2014)

My opinion has evolved, let's just say it that much. 

It's not perfect, but it's the closest I can come to having a decent 
computer experience without feeling that I'm being monitored by some 
corporation whose ideals I don't agree with or some Chinese pre-teen who 
found yet another hole in the Windows code to steal my personal data.

Besides Klaus Schadenfreude, who can not figure out what Silver Slimer is doing? How is Chrome on Linux doing anything above the lowest common denominator? 

Klaus Schadenfreude wants to hurt us: If Klaus Schadenfreude can't have dominate conversations here then nobody will. I thought showing someone some kindness might help the situation. It did not. My view is much more sophisticated. How is wasting a universal consciousness tied to failed neuron connectivity in any way going to lead to enlightened newsgroup posting? It was Klaus Schadenfreude who stated that he and his work friends used to steal people's mail all the time and it was fun, not even worth losing sleep over.

One thing that I have never seen spoofed is the Google acct. number so perhaps you can use it as a filtering criteria, too. Here's mine:

posting-account=qzPusQoAAADVdKNEKE-jqIVbecHp7oZ7 

My gmail posts go back to 2009 (that I've seen, crackhead's forgeries using gmail only go back to 2012). Notice the posting acct. number on this response matches this post from 2009:
