April 30, 2008

Ubuntu Linux $0
Windows XP $150
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit $150
Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit $150

Adventures in SeaMonkey

April 30, 2008

I like All-in-one (except for security). So SeaMonkey should fill in the gap. But I can’t use the Mail component right yet. Maybe later. But that home button on bookmarks bar is ultra-stupid.


Is Apple going to be the death of Free Software?

April 29, 2008

We all know that OS X is based on the open-source Darwin. Wait.Isn’t OS X closed source? I think the APL has loopholes to allow Apple to do this. My god, Apple really is evil. Richard Stallman is going to be angry about this.

Sic ‘em free software nerds.


Never use OS X to store ZIPs (also known as Steve Jobs’ latest evil anti-PC deeds)

April 27, 2008

Why? Windows gets confused. OS X (aka Crud OS X) has 2 folders – one’s a Windows folder, one’s for UNIX. (shudder) Because they have the same name, Windows will refuse to extract or delete the UNIX ones or folders. (UNIX folders are files to Windows)


Browse Crappy

April 27, 2008

I like WordPress. Don’t get me wrong, but I hate those ‘Browse Happy’ buttons at the bottom of the page. I like Internet Explorer. They’re attempting to make go to a crappier browser. It’s insulting and I even added the button to the blocked images list. Besides, IE is now very safe. Why I hate any non-IE browsers:

  • Firefox: Ludicrously slow.
  • Opera: Just plain odd.
  • Safari: Hideous and tries to make you use a evil search engine.
