so opio's post is just an opinion, but mine is a personal attack.

this is following the usual pattern. as follows:

1. 'x' posts a comment which directly or indirectly slags people for all using Sosumi/trying to emulate MacOSX/trying to appear l33t

2. 'x' is quickly and rightly told to get lost

3. 'x' whines about being 'ganged up' on.

you are right, BroChaos, in that as I said myself, I am breaking my own rule. but when i see the same pattern OVER AND OVER again, it just gets tiresome. as for the ignore list, it may seem extreme, but I come here to check out people's efforts at customizing their d-tops, not wade through page after page of this nonsense.

if anyone is here to label others' efforts as gay / lame / showoff /

or otherwise, it's really not welcome, that's all I want to say.

/me takes BroChaos' advice and removes Opio from ignore list...for now...:D

if u dont wanna go through pages of nonsense, dont continue it. if u dont like opio then dont talk to him and put him on ignore. this is about desktops not personal battles.

I can see why you're frustrated. That is understandable. But in order for things to change, some things need to happen. I should, A) ignore what bothers me; and B) not post my complaints to start a flame war.

batdotman, you should: A) Not respond to my complaints (well, if I stop complaining then you can't respond to anything, right?); and, B) stop fueling your own fires.

As for the rest of you, stop using sosumi and stop showing off your l33tness.

Haha.. isn't satire wonderful? In retrospect, this was a big waste of time on my part, and I apologize for that. :dead: Seriously though I hope I inspired some people to change their visual styles. Heh..

    • Valve will finally let you build your own Steam Machine with SteamOS for desktop

      By branfont · Posted

      If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia

      I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By Jdoe25 · Posted

      I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.
