So Ubuntu for a community place?
I’m from Debian (God rest its soul) and Ubuntu, well, came with free CDs in the mail. 10.04 LTS Kubuntu. In fact, I’m in it right now. First things first…
1) Why the hell is there a firefox installer in the KDE menu?
2) Why is wine only at 1.2? Where is wine-unstable? Backports???? This is suppose to be windows friendly for god sakes there should be a button somewhere that says “INSTALL UNSTABLE STUFF SOURCES HERE”
3) There was no pre-configuration for all of the shit that I just installed and am now running. *PLOP* Oh look, corey@Guest:~$ ps aux | wc -l
132
corey@Guest:~$ netstat -tapu 2> /dev/null | egrep ’^(udp|tcp)’ | awk ’{$2=“”;$3=“”;$NF=“”;print}’
tcp localhost:ipp *:* LISTEN
tcp6 localhost:ipp [::]:* LISTEN
udp *:bootpc *:*
udp *:mdns *:*
udp *:34832 *:*
I sure as hell can’t wait until I figure out why there is so much shit. I might as well go into debian and go sudo apt-cache search a | awk ’{print $1}’ | tr ’\n’ ’ ’ | xargs sudo apt-get install
I think Ubuntu is better off getting KDE ported to DOS 1.0 and then going from there, because if Ubuntu wants to be like Windows/KDE…then ya might as well `rm -fr /` because trying to create shell scripts to manage GUI is not very portable.
I’d get Debian but for christ sakes I don’t have a CD-burner and to buy it costs like $15 and it comes with like 6 CDs.
So I say screw computers, because…No I love my computer don’t I yes yes yes *pets keyboard* that’s right listen to me yes…
So I was thinking about offering my Ubuntu 10.04 CD to a community place in my town…and then after working with Ubuntu I have realized that searching forums for its bullshit is like trying to grep /dev/random for a number sequence. What the hell happened to a good ol’ `man`…you want to know what happened? We’re not working with text-files anymore! We’re not in control! The GUI is in control. And GUI can never ever ever ever EVER be managed by a shellscript. It’s like trying to create a forum bot that managed the semantics of the english language. Windows 7 is destined to fail. Ubuntu is destined to fail. The only OS that has any hope in this world is Debian, and blessed its apt-cache, wajig, dpkg, apt-get, debtags, aptitude, and every now and again synaptic…with REAL policies in the deb tags.
So am I going to introduce Ubuntu CDs to the community place in town to help with installing some OS that’s free? HELL NO!!! They’re gonna be wasting a ratio of 2 hours : 20 minutes of usage on searching google for Ubuntu bullshit. They’d be better off ignorant of the idea of a computer. They’d be better off with Windows 7 that only had IE installed. In fact they should make an Ubuntu where the only thing that’s installed is X11 where a Firefox window is maximized and the only thing you can do is left-click and type in a Google search. Giving people options for software crap is like saying, “hey, yo, COME WITH ME!!! It’s a great place full of so much cool stuff and you’ll love it!” And then you get sucked in and you realize how much time you’ve been wasting trying to find solutions to GUI managed bullshit. And plus, where are the khotkeys configuration? I even tried that one on Google, because the service is running, so where the hell are the KEYS!!?? Why isn’t unstable packages on here, or as an options, AM I SUPPOSE TO GOOGLE FOR THAT TOO???????? Ubuntu, do us all a favor and change your Web site to “Ubuntu has been abandoned, we have converted the Ubuntu project funds to give away free Debian CDs." Way to go Ubuntu, way to go.
