  1. the windows command prompt is the worse thing that exists, that thing is stupidly a pain in the ass, that's why people think that linux distributions are super complicated when they're not really that bad for home use. the terminal isn't really too hard & there's documentation to learn how to do things & that explain what you're doing so you can learn more about it, unlike in Microsoft's website that only gives you the solution when using the command prompt.
  2. i meant by the weird dialect that says user interfaces aren't user friendly.
  3. i don't , since i don't speak your weird dialect.
  4. anyone else noticed the way that Johny ives talk? The way he talks is really epic , he's using neurolinguistic programming to influence people with his voice tone.
  5. i meant the windows button on the keyboard.
  6. i still am waiting for you to prove i'm wrong. trying to change the subject won't make it any better. don't take things personally btw :) because if i were going to go personal on someone , it would be different.
  7. contact your isp , tell them to change your ip address because a hacker is onto you or w/e. unplug computer from internet & reformat ( you can always boot from a cd that will write 0's on your hard drive , tho it's kinda a bit paranoid) encrypt your hard drive(s) install spybot S&D + malwarebytes
  8. i'm pretty sure you just have to press the start button and start typing "windows 7 file recovery" instead of going in control panel and finding it. that's what i remember when i used windows 8 beta.
  9. gaining power meaning gaining control to defend your point of view. i'm educating people properly in many ways. here's 4 things i'm already doing , that aren't involved with linux vs windows : - how to debate properly and giving tips so you know how to debate - showing a phew examples of rhetorical speech and it's power in a debate.
  10. if you were actually confident , you wouldn't need to imply your emotions and try to educate us properly. nobody said linux is the best thing in the world in this thread btw, stop trying to make things up to attempt to gain power.
  11. good thing that ubuntu , Fedora , Red Hat , etc. are called Linux Distributions
  12. linux is a kernel. linux distributions are user friendly if they have a user interface.
  13. yep , it's over for you. linux is a kernel , not an operating system. you showed that you didn't know what was a kernel the whole time and assumed it was an operating system. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS7nqwGt4-I
  14. you're really making me laugh... unless you're using a linux distribution that doesn't have a user interface , you don't need to type in any commands to connect to the internet and you don't need a network manager. you're spreading wrong information in the internet just because you're stuck in your microsoft bandwagon,that's my first impression , lets take a peak of what you have in your post. first paragraph : user interfaces are commands in the background dumbed down so everyone can do what they want without breaking a sweat. it would be against the principle of user interfaces to say that they're require more then a click to open up the program you're trying to run, after you find them, but you can have icons on your desktop ( depending on which user interface you're using ) or you have a menu bar anyways. mac's aren't really expensive for what you get if you compare them to a prebuilt computer of the same type at the same price. you should also keep in mind that when a person buys a mac , they know it's going to be plug & play automatically without needing to do anything after spending a phew minutes changing their settings ( language , wifi and all that) and they can rely on their support if anything goes wrong. second paragraph : typing in a phew letters takes less time then moving your mouse all the time for UAC. linux is open source , do you know what open source is? because if you don't , i'm sorry for you. p1 : logout root that command is mentally challenging me when i open up my linux shell, so i'm just going to switch user accounts instead using the user interface which takes more time. p2: the windows command line is 10 times worse then the linux command line. p1: what's wrong with an app store? you basically download & run , just like windows executables , but you don't spend all your life on google to find what program to get to do what you want , which can also have malicious files. you just do a simple search in the app store and you're done and you're not going to get any malicious files. p2: no , programs use the registry in windows. p3: what's your point? linux distributions also can do that p4: the windows registy will kill your windows if you don't know what you're doing. the only way to kill your linux would be if you edit your kernel or loader.conf file and do a syntax error. p5: i don't even wanna comment p6:no way? i never thought that windows had a backwards compatibility mode to run programs p1: linux supports more hardware then windows does. the only problem is that some fancy keyboards and mouse don't have linux drivers and software because the manufacturers didn't make them. it's not because linux is bad. p2: what?you can always mention that you're computer illiterate and you're going to still get help... p1: read what's open source. if you don't like how it looks , you can always change it or look for something else. you're not limited to 1 desktop unlike windows that you can't change it. you can try to make it look better , but you won't get rid of it. p2:what? xwindow environment doesn't matter at all most of the time and usually there's other alternatives anyways for ywindow environment. p1: if you were in programming or whatever , it's really not the same then if you're using it just because. p2: you don't need allot of programs needed unlike windows and you don't need to mess with the kernel at all. you don't know where Os-X fits because you don't understand that all operating systems at the end of the day are the same as long they have a user interface. Linux is easy to use and get started , anyone that knows how to install windows can install linux without any problems. support is in the forums , with people that want to help, not because they're paid to and you get terrible support most of the time because the persons have been doing that all day and didn't have the type of people they like and they had to not get angry or do anything that will make them loose their job.
