My fave Ubuntu feature: Setup doesn't recognize my striped system disc on a 680i board, but rather sees it as two discrete drives. Oddly Vista and even PowerQuest Disk image running in *fucking DOS* don't have this problem. Or XP with an F6 driver load. Queries to Linux boards or Google searches result in ridicule about "fake raid" and the like and some shit about edintg some text files somewhere. Edit fucking text files to confgire hardware? WTF is this, DOS 3.1? There are NV raid drivers in the box, but like all things Linux they are apparently half-baked.
Lesson: Linux still sucks and its users are still a bunch of tossers.
Half-baked? You've got to be kidding me. Mr. Pot, meet Mr. Kettle... In all my years of experience dealing with the most popular OS in the world, almost _everything_ they do is half-baked but because their company has market share and lot's of money, they create crappy implementations of standards, and then force it on everyone. How long did it take for them to do TCP/IP right? Even though something happens to be wildy popular, it doesn't make it good or right. Come on, let's talk about objective merits here.
