im too lazy to type all this again so i'm gonna copy what i said to someone in irc:
<mackstann> my f-cking computer is pissing me off like you wouldnt believe
<*> this is a Rated-G chan for language, ok?
<*> what's your computer doing?
<mackstann> lots of sh-t
<mackstann> its putting me in a real bad mood
<mackstann> not cool
<mackstann> linux finally installed with about 50 hiccups along the way
<*> gotta learn to master your computer, your language, and your emotions
<mackstann> mind you this is mandrake, so it also succeeded in making me feel like an idiot
<*> ; )
<mackstann> eh
<*> lol
<mackstann> then finally its installed
<mackstann> and half the things i try to use in it crash
<*>
<mackstann> the task bar thing freezes
<mackstann> my keyboard stops responding
<mackstann> cant even do a safe shutdown and then i have to worry cus ext2 sucks so much
<mackstann> so screw linux for the moment
<mackstann> get back to windows
<mackstann> damn its ugly
<mackstann> and i'm sick of MS
<*> you got farther with Linux than I ever did so far
<mackstann> and i hate AIM
<mackstann> so i get trillian
<mackstann> trillian bugs out and goes all wierd
<mackstann> takes over the top 3/4 of my screen
<mackstann> i cant even move windows up there
<mackstann> so kill trillian
<mackstann> but aim still sucks
<mackstann> it's like, MS or half ass software that crashes
<mackstann> or AOL, which is up there with MS
<mackstann> AIM that is, thank god i dont have AOL
<mackstann> </rant>
<mackstann> sorry had to vent to someone
<*> hehe
<*> I was playing UT without sound and it made me want to rant too
<mackstann> i wanted to download anarcy online for the free week trial but it was going at like 30k or some stuff to where it would take 4 friggin hours to download
<*>
<mackstann> these two last days have sucked computer wise
================/end copying from irc
anyways, thats most of it. i really hate MS. i dont like the fact that i use software that is made by a monopolist corporation. i tried installing XP, (2k now), and there was some read error from the CD, so i figured hell, they don't want me using this unless i pay for it, screw them and let them have their way.
i hate using outlook but its the best functioning mail prog i've used.
i hate using IE because it saves all of your crap in HISTORY.IE5 and i have to delete that crap every so often cus it gets so huge, and i still dont even know why they do that (they cant look into my comp, so why save all my history?)
i read about linux and think "man, windows sucks cus it doesnt to x y and z that linux does, but then i install linux and it works like ass.
i also hate AIM. but like i explained, trillian didnt turn out to be so great either.
after reading this, you might think "he just doesnt know what he's doing", and that is true for linux, but for windows i definitely know what i'm doing. i'm not a computer newbie, i dont get scared at a command line, i edit the registry without fear, i can sort of "duct tape" my way around crap if you know what i mean.
man.:|
thats all i can say.
please just say something nice to make me feel better or something.
