> Start feeling more annoyed by the linux community.
> Each time i argument their OS is not good they tell me it's my fault and that i didn't researched well.
> Some accuse me of shilling or working for microsoft or calls me ignorant.
> Get tired of being called names and creates bait threads just to annoy them.
> To be honest i got told in every thread but that doesn't matter because i'm not taking it seriously.
> No matter how many times they show me proof i'm wrong, linux will never be nearly as good as windows.
> I'm started to feel a bit tired of being called ignorant and s tart messing again with linux.
> I try again with red hat and with other distros the lintards constantly shills.
> This time i use what i learned from those threads.
> Honestly i learn a few new things but i was looking for bugs to rub them in their face.
> Use it sporadically around one month like the last time, maybe a bit more this time.
> I stop using with the feeling "man, it's not that bad if some things were not that shitty".

> Start again creating bait threads except this time with more weapons.
> In most threads they show proof that a lot of things i think it was not possible with linux was in fact possible.
> Bah, it's much harder anyway, windows is better and linux is a lot behind.
> Get pissed for each time they tell me to use google so i start creating more bait threads because i graped this was a better way to learn.
> They practically gives me the answers so i can use those dumb fanboys.
> I thrash talk linux at every oportunity and i remind them constantly that it'll never be popular.
> I tell them i don't understand why they shill that piece of shit that much, that no one is interested into being an special snowflake.
> They tell me about the freedumbs, about they like it more, about customization, etc.
> I tell them the average joe doesn't care and that it will be better if it keeps as their "secret club".
> They tell me being a secret club is not the point but that there's an vicious circle.
> They say linux would be much better if more third parties like adobe support it but the lack of users doesn't allow that and to get the support they need more users.
> Whatever, it's just 1%, no one will care about linux ever, it's not logical.

> Decide that i don't know enough and just for curiosity i mess a bit more with linux distros.
> Again, i use what i learned each time i was corrected and i try new distros.
> The previously stablished cycle continues for aound 5 years.
> Except each time i claim to be a "more veteran" user with x years of experience on linux each time i bait or just to validate a point.
> At some point linux started to not feel too alien anymore but i still liked windows more and i still get angry each time they say "windows is for noobs".
> As time passes i started to understand a bit more why other people may like other operative systems more.
> Even i, at this point, had a somewhat stable linux partition i booted ocassionally just to mess with it.
> While i still thrash-talked linux my arguents was often about compatibility, for example Microsot Office VS Open Offce.
> This time i didn't felt i was completely corrected in the threads but some points was interesting like the importance of open standards.
> At first i mocked those kind of arguments because i considered myself "pragmatic" and i just don't grasped why i would limit myself with shitty programs that cannot open a document.
> Start researching by myself when i don't have anything more interesting to do.
> I read about how some companies tries to lock their users.
> I grasp simply logical things like that a "secret" format cannot be implemented by competing solutions and how this can be used to take advantage of a dominant position.

psp was very successful tho, it's also had the best library of games. prove me wrong

>>58459397
Gameplay matters, there were good games for PSP/Vita, but not as many. . Also, PSP had disks, which sucked. Vita is fantastic, but was too late. The DS ate Sony's lunch, went home, fucked Sony's mom, and pasted pics of it on Facebook before the Vita got off the drafting board.

No. PSP owners bought it for pirating emulators of old Nintendo systems, not to buy games.

DS Worldwide sales: 154.02 million
PSP Worldwide sales: 82 million

New Super Mario Bros., 30.81 million, all versions combined
Nintendogs, 23.96 million
Mario Kart DS, 23.60 million

Best-selling games PSP:
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, 4.8 million
Gran Turismo 4.66 million

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

2. All of reddit isn't a single site, don't they have subreddits that are more / less shit than others?

>>58458627

DD4BC were another ddos group. They got busted last year for doing this. Completely disregard.

it's like you can't use a firewall, OP

>Is calling the ISP and changing IPs a safe-enough work-around?

lol no

>>58458754
The existing firewall does not support any sort of DDOS protection or auto-blocking. It's being upgraded tomorrow.
