i fuckin hate slaadi

lol where r u fighting slaadi

holy shit could your interface be any more unsightly?

my interface is krieg and I can probably write a lengthy thesis on why it is better than yours from several different aspects, including but not limited to functionality, logic and ergonomics.

i still use the windows 98 look on xp
way bettr than the default

I use a classic windows look on my gaming computer with windows 7... but I prefer not to do anything in windows except for what I do with my playstation - launch games. windows is a nightmare to use.

get w7 @elim

wish there was a good QNX based OS that could be actually used. so sick of unix

oh is it

Dude, every computer I use dual boots XP/7 and the Mac OS.

COME AT ME.

why is your task bar on the side when it would make more sense on the bottom
it'd take less space and give you the same space for text

not to mention icons are more recognizable than text when looking for an application

and fixed width looks like shit

uh QNX *is* a UNIX-like OS. though I don't know why you'd use QNX or something based on QNX.

it's not unix
and it's not unix-like either

and probably just because it's not bloated and full of random shit like unix is. Everything being a plug in would be so nice, wouldn't deal with the weird things windows or unix decides to pull all the time.

plus it was invented in my home town

why does it make more sense to have it on the bottom? I have it on the side because my monitor is 16:10 not 10:16, and because you can't fit all that information if it was horizontal. it'd have to rotate the text or summat.

icons would be useless. almost every application I have running are run from a terminal emulator, so the only icon that would appear would be a bunch of boxes.

fixed width what?

QNX is a UNIX-like operating system. I have never heard anyone dispute this. even Wikipedia agrees. it's even (mostly) POSIX.

just use Linux or FreeBSD then.

wow unix-like is the stupidest adjective ever

what information? the text? if you made it one line tall (or two) you could fit all that info and more on the bottom of the screen and have more real estate

fixed width fonts look like shit

ive thougth about tryin ubuntu im pretty stupid tho

no. just tried it for the lulz. the panel would have to be huge, or the font tiny.

monospace is the only legit font. it differentiates zero and o and capital i and lower case l and so forth. and being monospace means that you can actually rely on columns when you are coding.

christsimpson are you running Arch Linux or what?

monospace is only legit for coding
for anything that requires lots of reading it's difficult on the eyes

and what I really don't understand how it doesn't work. It would just look like the task bar in windows

[QUOTE=StaffReviewer;18785484]ive thougth about tryin ubuntu im pretty stupid tho[/QUOTE]

ubuntu is really stupid and designed for morons so you should get along then I guess

it's all "LINUX FOR HUMANS NOT GEEKS" so they remove every option and make it completely locked and retarded so that you can't tweak anything without tearing everything apart

so it's Linux for Windows users

the positives hmmmm it's well documented and has a big community I guess

Arch Linux is atrocious so thankfully no

monospace is good for anything where you are limiting your columns which I usually do when I am coding or writing markup or whatever and it differentiates all characters appropriately

it doesn't hurt my eyes

the task bar in Windows has ONE work space not twelve work spaces

oh yeah I forgot you think windows are stupid

"windows are stupid"? lolwut

[QUOTE=christsimpson;18785478]why would I care. I don't use it.[/QUOTE]

I'm coming at you then!

Bitches don't want to see some ugly OS. They wanna see that shinny mac shit.

lol hnd knows what's up

you don't use windows, just full screen apps, right?
or am I misremembering?

Bitches use to come when I'd be on my machacked MSI netbook.

I'd be like: ya girls, I spent a lot of time doing this.

mac os x is the worst stable operating system I have ever been exposed to
apple is an awful company in all respects
already have a bitch

so no thanks

good luck though
and again who are you
you said this was an alt

I'd be modest and shit and say: I can't use my headphone jack but don't worry the forum community is on it.

Then we'd fuck.

why do you hate os x so much

and um apple is a great company in many respects that's probably why they had 13b in profits last year

[QUOTE=Gorgon;18785508]lol hnd knows what's up

I'm not sure I know what you mean about "full screen apps". on the screenshots I have a Web browser. it is a window. if you mean that I don't have several windows on each work space you are wrong as well. when I code I usually have a bunch open, like so:

[img]http://www.ride-bikes.net/upload/2012-01-26-222646_1440x900_scrot.png[/img]

oh I thought for some reason you only ever had one app in view at a time
don't know why

[QUOTE=Gorgon;18785517]why do you hate os x so much

it's clearly engineered with a "we know everything and the user is a retard" frame of mind

apple are horrible. do any of the following terms mean anything to you? "vendor lock-ins", "proprietary software". "unethical overseas labour practices", "overpricing", etc forever.

most users[I] are[/I] retarded, though

and proprietary software is not a bad thing, unlike what all the FOSS neck beards might scream all the time

and lol everyone has unethical overseas labour practices, they maybe bad in a bunch of ways but they're super successful and offer products that allow people to work without having to worry about things.

which is fine. you don't have to prevent smart users to fix your broken mess though.

proprietary software is inherently *bad*. it prevents sharing and further development. imagine if someone figured out how to build nigh completely earthquake-proof buildings, and that technology wasn't shared. how is that not unethical?

no, not everyone has unethical overseas labour practices. Apple definitely has though. your attitude of "they may be Satan, but hey they make money", isn't one I hold.
