#475394 — Linux Dominates Azure. Oh the Irony!

Fromfr314159@gmail.com
Date2018-11-05 09:09 -0800
SubjectLinux Dominates Azure. Oh the Irony!
Message-ID<f6122b09-8eab-4360-97da-0f5595069639@googlegroups.com>
Microshit Azure, for those who don't know, is Microshit's "cloud"
computing platform and the great hope of Microshit's future.

But what is the favorite client VM platform on Azure?

You guessed it.  Linux!

https://linux.slashdot.org/story/18/09/27/209211/linux-now-dominates-azure

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  Oh the irony!

I suppose that serious and informed people will always prefer a grand piano
(Linux) to a kazoo (Microshit).

But there are still LOTS of RETARDS, IDIOTS, and ZOMBIES that will
sustain Microshit on the desktop for the foreseeable future.

Like you, your employer, and every member of your family.


MS is doomed by Linux wankers making a living with Windows.

LOL! Years ago I told you that you'd have to come around to this 
reality... but it's good to see you doing it on your feet, swinging ;)

server side?

Few Windows desktop projects are ported to Linux because Windows devs 
won't take payment in roadkill or used toilets.

So that's why you didn't finish your 'Dice' bot. OK, suppose we make it 
a case of Jolt, a carton of Snickers and a free pass to 'Chuckie Rides
Again' when it's released?

Being an old 'New Yorker' it's something I've always wanted to see.
Speakin' of old, Dice is starting to look it (too):

Are you being idiotic on purpose? Why would you want to limit all scripts on GNU/Linux to what can be done on Macs? 

That's what Steve Carroll does when he gets mad. He creates a sock, starts a cross posted thread so he can claim he didn't do it. Hey it was my left hand... and then Steve Carroll responds to himself with his right hand. What Steve Carroll really means: Steve Carroll's remarkable "diagnostic abilities" diverted his attention from a module he wants that is already built into this application. Lines of text containing your own words reflected in a funhouse mirror. Contrary to Steve Carroll's claim that he has "no experience in making a flood bot" (a lie as exposed by the fact that he destroyed CSMA with his crap) he was quoted asking IT departments how they would take down a website. 

Who are you even blubbering to?

You are back to fishing for info about bots... oy. You do more than 
enough Google seeding with your current one.

I stopped fiddling with my IRC bot some time ago... but it worked quite 
well. I did have issues with the "Call and response" type replies (say 
where it tells a joke and waits for a reply). Worked MOST of the time 
but there were some oddities.

… don't want to reveal their egregious incompetence in general GUI
programming.

A case in point is FoxitReader, the excellent PDF reader.

FoxitReader has been ported to GNU/Linux using the QT GUI toolkit
but the result is pure shit.  The interface, which obviously attempts
to duplicate the Winblows experience, looks like it has been cobbled
together by junior high school students doing a weekend project.

In the right hands, the QT and other GNU/Linux toolkits can create
high quality interfaces, but the Microshit developer is able to utilize
them only very poorly.

Let them stick to their limited Microshit universe.

Microshit employs only incompetent idiots.

Already moved on from that. Keep up! The Underground Marshmallow Person is far too ignorant to write a quality script. The only scripting he's ever shown he can do is copying code from online forums and claiming it as his own. A meaningless discourse by pseudo-experts, magnified by the reciprocal of a mere moment in a cosmological time scale, demonstrating the vast nothingness of The Underground Marshmallow Person's so-called thought process. 

His "troubleshooting mastery" side tracked him from an add-on he wants that Klaus Schadenfreude found in _seconds_ for this software. The only thing malfunctioning here is The Underground Marshmallow Person. Fuchsia, runs on the LXQt kernel. So yeah, LXQt is mobile. LXQt is a super computer. LXQt is a server. LXQt is a desktop. LXQt is growing in market share. 

The Underground Marshmallow Person can't get anything else to work, either. 

The Underground Marshmallow Person gets excited that Klaus Schadenfreude is on the other end. Imagine if The Underground Marshmallow Person walked up to a chimpanzee and delivered the punch line. It wouldn't be rewarding. LOL! How did The Underground Marshmallow Person get SO conceited he concludes everything is about his comments??

I bet it looks just as shitty as the avg Linux GUI (cr)app.

Also, you should use this issue as the final reason for you to drop that 
Linux crapware and migrate everything to Windows.  You know you want to 
anyway.  All your work is done on Windows, and your meaningless hobby 
stuff can be ported easily enough.

Make the move today, Feeb, and enjoy the best software in the world. 
Like ConEmu and Notepad++ and MS Office and AutoCAD and Photoshop and 
native FoxIt and MediaMonkey and Paint.NET and WinRAR and Sandra Lite 
and Speccy and WindowBlinds and Samurize and ShareX and TreeSize and 
WinDirStat and CPU-Z.

Last I checked the avg MS employee generated 3.7x as much revenue as the 
avg dullard employee at RedHat.  3.7x.  Think about that.

And the MS devs responsible for the most excellent MS Office are 
extremely competent.  For instance, 20+ years ago you could show (and 
address) multiple columns of data in an MS Access listbox. 
Unbelievably, LibreOffice in 2018 still doesn't have this crucial 
feature.  And an incompetent idiot like you couldn't add that feature 
even if you wanted to.

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

I have all the latest and "greatest" Winblows stuff, including Photoshop
and AutoCAD.  It's all overblown junk.  Spreadsheets, for example, are just
a crutch for the digital illiterates.

My Microshit machine is loaded with EVERYTHING but I rarely touch it and then
only to accommodate idiots.  GNU/Linux is the only TRUE WAY.

There are only TWO kinds of humans:  Those that can compute and those that
MUST use Microshit.

The case is closed.

Most importantly, you don't want to be the only person in the world who
moved *from* Linux *to* Windoze.

It's an *epidemic*!

move from Linux to Windows
About 199,000,000 results


But if you do make the right move, you definitely don't want to 
accompany it with a big crying jag like cola "advocate" Marti did:

"I don't want to be a part of this GNU/Linux community anymore.  I'm 
going back to Windows 7 this very night!"

Boo-hoo!

I can vouch for one of the programs listed by DFS, MediaMonkey, as being 
the best music management program ever made. FoxIt is good too but I 
prefer SumatraPDF reader myself since it's much lighter. Paint.NET is 
also alright but GIMP is better but Notepad++ is the best in its category.

I just tried SumatraPDF and it's just about perfect for my .pdf reading. 
  Thanks for mentioning it.

I like having the .pdf in a browser tab, but the Opera .pdf plug-in is 
too bare-bones.
Here's a free tool that will stitch together multiple .pdfs into one:
