I disagree with half the stuff you say, but I value your comments and still find great bits of insight in a lot of them. For instance, whenever you rant on Linux I usually read the entire post. Usually I agree with about a quarter of it, disagree with the rest and find things to think about on both accounts. I believe that you have a reasonable take even on things you don't necessarily like and usually avoid descending into 'troll' territory even when arguing. That's the kind of stuff I've only been able to find on Slashdot and why I keep coming back.
BTW, have you run your yearly "try Linux again" experiment recently? If not, don't bother with Fedora 22 - as a developer and avid Linux user/committer I can tell you it's pure crap driven by UX dorks. Very nearly completely unusable. Try a SUSE Linux build next time around. They haven't completely jumped the shark yet and still provide a reasonable, user friendly, stable build.
Australians accept lira, or do I have to convert to Foster's beer for payment?
You do know that no Australians actually drink Foster's, right? That's the stuff we flog to foreigners.
You drive a hard bargain. I'll send you a six pack of beer we don't drink and beer we flog to foreigners. One six pack of Foster's and one six pack of Bud Light.
Drink the Bud first and then use the Foster's simultaneously wash away the taste of the Bud, drink something that resembles a beer, and be both humbled and amazed by the fact we can make a beer so crappy it makes you enjoy the crappy beer you guys produce. Then be thankful that I didn't send over Bud Light Lime. Yes, that's a thing and it probably tastes as bad as it sounds.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
