Linux Linus Torvalds has released version 2.6.25 of the Linux kernel. "It's been long promised, but there it is now. Special thanks to Ingo who found and fixed a nasty-looking regression that turned out to not be a regression at all, but an old bug that just had not been triggering as reliably before."

As a grown up, please explain how a misspelt name makes an argument less compelling. We're talking logic and facts here, right? So how exactly a name that you can still recognize as referring to a specific entity changes facts and logic?

(Yeah, disregarding minor form issues and focusing on facts and logic takes some growing up, that's for sure.)

Because people take you a lot less seriously when you do do that? Same as people here giving really good rebuttals to someone but ruining it by ending it with "idiot" or the like.

gah, moron. ;P

Exactly. A person, not an argument. "Winblows" is lame and the one who uses it may be childish, but you don't refute an argument by pointing it out.
