Years ago, I was the infrastructure and security architect at a big, service org - focused on the new, "Web-Business".
They needed threaded messaging and discussion engine, with a web-UI, and the UI design team were all over what could be built with Shockwave and whatnot.
I tried to insist on an NNTP back-end. It was a proven, "done" effort, and would allow us to focus on our strengths - content and presentation - over mechanism.
About that time, DejaNews went to the highly-usable "orange" interface they sported, with some nice interactivity - not too hevy and very navigable.
It didn't sell, internally. None of the people involved had any history or deep understanding of the internet and it's protocols - beyond HTTP/HTML.
So, we live in a world of non-interoperable web 'forums'. Junk.
Is garbage.
How doesGoogle get its cheering section? Everything they do is half-assed suckage - with the exception of Search and some peripherall technology like translate.
I was really pissed at the memory and CPU usage of FireFox today - so I thought I'd take some risks with Chromium. WHAT A PEICE OF SHIT!
System bogs down to no mouse responsiveness after 15 tabs, as I'm searching for effective equivalents of my FireFox extensions. Many of these are essentials, for me.
In the end, Chromium just crashes - and when I load the extensions, they are also, half-assed. Like little proof-of-concept versions of the FireFox equivalents - even when they are produced as variants from the same devs.
The world would be a better place without Google. They suck up cappital, work effort and attention that would be better placed elsewhere - even Canonical.
There's a hundred little Hitlers squeezing out of every crack
In that shattered hulk that you once held to be Liberty's shining pride
Dead American imagination, cranking out tacky imitation fascism
But there's no center to it - What's a Fatherland without any Father? A Homeland no one has ever been at home in? Just say goodbye. History's brief attention has aready wandered away from you, the could-have-been who never was. As they say, it's all over but the shouting - and the cursing in darkness.
Snow-fucking-White. Mr. Disney.
Obsolete hulk, moved nonsensically into region. Purpose?
Revisit the Tonkin Gulf incident...
I'll be goddamned if you are guaranteed a job, because your uncle decided to run for office.
BTW: I find your response most effective, when I imagine it narrated by Stephen Fry. In fact, it becomes almost deightful to read! I should try the same thought-experiment with the Linux LVM HOWTO.
You have consonantal ambiguity. I can't figure if you are nostalgic or nasty logic....
Religion is a spiritual crutch for people who can't handle God.
