I’ve seen some interesting Mac vs. PC debates, as well as Windows vs. Linux, etc. Most are clearly biased one way or the other.
However, this Ubuntu vs. Vista showdown is the clear winner of intelligent OS comparisons. In a single page, BBspot sums it all up.
It truly is a statement on how geeky the entire computer industry is, when you think that it’s been over twenty years now since IBM compatible PC’s and Apple Macintosh’s hit the market – yet Mac vs. PC religious wars still rage.
I was watching a series of parodies on the current line of Macintosh commercials on TV, such as:
Pretty good work, but for the love of all things beautiful, ignore the comments. It’s a joke, you morons. Get a life.
“Mac is God’s gift to premature ejaculation and PC’s give you cancer!”
“PC’s make my foot warts disappear, while Mac’s give me jock itch!”
“Linux allows you to create wormholes to other galaxies using ordinary PC hardware and empty toilet paper rolls, while Bill Gates is the Anti-Christ!”
“Britney Spears uses a Macintosh because it gives her great camel toe!”
Enough already!
I’m a Unix fan because I like the underlying design and the tools available. I think I’d go a little bit nuts doing data reformatting without the ability to pipe, redirect and tee data streams. That said, I thought this “Linux” character was damn funny and pretty much spot on for some of the propeller heads I’ve run into.
It’s a joke, people – stop whoring yourself to a brand, already.
The event I mentioned about the chocolate Jesus exhibit has been cancelled.
Full story here. About the only redeeming action in the entire affair was, “Matt Semler, the gallery’s creative director, resigned in protest.”
Excellent, Matt! Thank you.
‘Bill Donohue, head of the watchdog Catholic League, said it was “one of the worst assaults on Christian sensibilities ever.”‘
Try this on for size Bill, “So many Christians, so few lions!” Yeah, you can quote me.
If it pisses of Bill Donohue of The Catholic League, then it must be good!
An artist named Cosimo Cavallaro has made a six foot, naked rendering of Jesus out of chocolate to be displayed in Manhattan’s Lab Gallery next week and Billy boy is hopping mad about it.
Heaven forbid a naked Jesus be displayed as any kind of art – after all, he must not have had one of those sinful penises on him in the first place. Come to think of it, Holy Host is round in shape and not too wide – makes you wonder what part of Christ you’re eating at Communion, don’t it?
Donohue is your typical racist, homophobic Christian gas bag, with far more hot air than sense. Some of it is just plain vile. Back in February of this year, this misogynistic ass went so far as to threaten a couple of bloggers for their take on his attacks against John Edwards. Now, the bloggers went out there in their language as well, but aren’t we taught to expect better from good Christians?
His rants are almost unbelievable, like this gem.
I guess you can’t expect much more from a slob who states, “The gay community has yet to apologize to straight people for all the damage that they have done — for contaminating the blood supply in New York City and around the country.”
And you people thought that the Inquisition was done with.
Don’t worry, though…sweet Jesus loves you.
