Proper Disrespect for False Authority

Not a Joke, an Exclamation!

I have to admit that after yesterday’s tragi-comedy with eWeek my trust in the media was sorely depleted. Now however, Ars Technica has rushed in to reinforce what little trust I have. Their article [Link] “5 years later, 5 ways that Ubuntu has made Linux more human” is in many ways the antithesis of the eWeek article.

Specifically, where the eWeek article picked some specific clients and did the Goebbels thing of making them seem different from capabilities already available in Linux, hence telling once more the BIG MegaHard LIE!, this article focuses on things that are actually different between Linux – Ubuntu in this case – and Windows.

And that brings us to the commonality in that this list is a resounding indictment of all that is wrong and evil about Windows and MegaHard.

Now the rain will be enjoyable.
