Mac OS X "Thanks to pirates, or rather the fear of them, the Intel edition of Apple's OS X is now a proprietary operating system. Mac developers and power users no longer have the freedom to alter, rebuild, and replace the OS X kernel from source code. Stripped of openness, it no longer possesses the quality that elevated Linux to its status as the second most popular commercial OS."

"It has nothing to do with stupidity sweetheart."

Thats exactly why you dont get my comment , and I aint your sweetheart.


Sorry honey. I didn't say I didn't get it. I said it made no sense. It made no sense because it was very badly written. Your confusion arises from the assumption that I misunderstand your points. The fact is that your points are unclear because you use run-ons, a lack of plurals, punctuation, definite articles, etc (which are all completely forgivable for a non-native speaker). What is more problematic is your rambling non-sequiters and your terrible metaphors.

"it has everything to do with your poor command of the English language."

No it as to do with your lack of understanding of the subject and news that goes with it. I discuss something which as no value directly for you hence you dont get what I am talking about and from what angle.

I understand it just fine. It's really not rocket science. Interesting that you find it should be so challenging to me. I have given you no reason to believe that. Your post is stocked with assumptions (I obviously rattled you). Your assumption that you discuss something which is "of no value dirctly to me" couldn't be more wrong.

"Don't make futile asssertions about my intelligence."

I read what you wrote. Not what you tought.


Ahem...Look up 'futile' in the dictionary.

"you have no evidence to back it up and it just makes you look like a schoolchild grasping at straws."

" "Ooh, you don't understand what I said, so you must be stupid." Please, learn some grammer and try again... "

Nope , you said it dont make sense , not that it was poorly written or explained. Your not interested in what I have to say , or what is beeing said at all.


OK, listen carefully - IT MAKES NO SENSE BECAUSE IT'S POORLY WRITTEN AND EXPLAINED. I'm sorry and I really don't want to be rude. I might be interested in what you had to say if you could make a cogent argument!

"There's a good reason why nobody else replied to your post"

They dont like to be called and shown as stupid ;-)


Heh, there you go again. "Whoever disagrees with me is stupid."


No , again , your too stupid to understand it. Good example is the problem in Africa , the rest of the world seems to not care about it , but in reality most people have problem sustaining and supporting themself , let alone try and help more then they already do , there is also the fact that they think someone else is paid to take care of it , and its actually the case but those funds are diverted or missused.


Wow, way to go off at a tangent. Can you keep one consistent thought in your head? Next thing you'll be talking about your Aunt Mabel's arthiritis and thinking it's somehow relevant.

Most people dont understand computers and dont get how they work , if someone tells them they dont need the kernel to be Open they will believe them because they dont think that they personnaly use that kernel.

Most people don't care. Everyday users have no idea what open source is or how it affects them. They just want to get their work done. Normal people do not sit there recompiling and patching their kernels.

but I dont worry , you whont get it.

Don't worry, there's really nothing to get. Ah well, I won't resort to calling you stupid (repeatedly), just because you don't "get" it.
