Subject: I used to like Linux, now I hate it.
I was a long time advocate of the Linux operating system.  I
participated almost on a full time scale, in the COLA usenet group, and
I even used to publish Troll statistics based upon daft Roy Culley's
COLA stats, each week.

I am now cured. I always felt Linux was a little bit shit, but my eyes
were opened up the day my hard drive got hosed, and I lost all my data!

Where I live, in the outback of Australia, the power is not reliable.
I had just finished building my Gentoo installation, and puting all my
data onto it, when the power went kaput!  2 hours later, when the power
returned, I restarted my PC, only to discover that the crock of shit
ext3 file system was not so journaling, as I had been led to believe by
the so called hippie community Linux advocates.  Disk totaly hosed to
death, by Linux.

Luckily, I had a backup tape of my data.  I then loaded up a 3 month
timebomb version of windows 2003, that I had been given at some
computer show once, and downloaded a shareware tar tape extraction
utility for windows.  I managed to recover all my data.  Thank god.
But it made me think.  I then got my credit card out, picked up the
telephone, called my nearest Microsoft vendor.  In 2 minutes, I had
ordered a full copy of Windows 2003 server, which I duly received about
a week later.  It was installed in 30 minutes. Sweat.

I now reflect upon my time with Linux, and wonder why on earth I wasted
so much of my time with it, sometimes spending endless nights getting
simple hardware devices to work. I now know Windows and Microsoft (not
Micro$oft, as I used to insult them with) are very valuable assets to
the global ecomony, and Linux with its band of hippie beatnicks and
communists, are attempting to bring down our western democratic values.

God bless Windows.  God bless Microsoft.

Interesting troll, but oddly enough I also live in outback Australia and
have similar power problems with maximum times between outages of about 40
days. Mostly the power is out a lot more often. I use ext3 on all 9 PC's
here and never have hosed a complete filesystem yet in many years of use...
On rare occasions there have been minor losses of maybe a couple of files,
but nothing substanstial...

So either I'm very lucky or OP is really unlucky - or just FOS...

Ya' think?  :)

There does seem to be a bit of forging going on around CSMA and COLA
recently... I know I have been forged in several posts.

I do not know who is doing it, but Steve Mackay has let on that he knows who
has been forging my name - though he will not say who or how he knows.  To
be specific, he claims to know that a photoshopped image of me that a forger
pointed to was not made by Elizabot - who has posted such altered images of
me in the past.

I am not saying that Steve Mackay knows who is forging everyone, or that it
even comes from the same person, but it is clear he is involved with at
least some of the forgery.

You're just a lying nym shifting troll. If you were the real Terry
Porter you would know that he originally posted the COLA stats and I
took it over from him.

Before that it was coming from south america and soon afterwards
a big news story broke out that Brazillian government
is dumping microshaft. The astro turfers must have been hired to
post their astroturfing letters into Brazil by microshat.
Brazil and other governments should look at legalizing
astro turfing, its the only way to bring it under control.

If so much trolling activity is increasing from Romania, they must
have opened up a big trolling center there and are up to no
good posting letters from there. May be manufacturing the letters there?
The manufactured letters being posted by different astroturds
all have a common problem indicating its all being assembled
at one point in a standard format before being dispatched
to various centers for repost.
May be the Romanian and EU countries as well as amerikkka
should also think about legalizing the framework for
astroturfing. The astro turfing profession is truly getting its hand
into everything in a massive global way.

One of the bad side effects of using decent filtering: one doesn't get
to see the childish attempts at getting a rise out of others or
oneself. Still, it's not worth the load of crap that's included in the
rest of the post just to see a single 'From" address that might be
mildly amusing.

There are other countries that are even poorer at it and need the jobs
more (read: cheap labor). I don't know why they'd go for Romania when
they could just have easily used Burmese or something.

It probably didn't occur to him to have one of his sock puppets to speak

Steve M. are false.

Anyway, living in Southeastern Idaho, which is hardly the center of the

Reiserfs, with a few ext3 as well, and for some strange reason, I've never
noticed any lost data.

I regularly pull the power when in a hurry - I know I'm bad.
But there is a purpose to it - to make it fail and so far,
I have never had a failure.

Windopes - oh yeah - I'm fscked utterly butterly.
I used to run workshop for a big co - some 2000 PCs there.
When power fails to the building, 30 PCs fail
at a time. What a fskcing nightmare!
I can imagine with GNU/Linux, that that number would be close to zero
barring any hardware failures (surge can vaporize atleast 4 PCs).

Which allegations are you in reference to... the one where I point out that

He was making it very clear that he knows who did not (and who did) create
the image linked to by the forger... and therefore almost certainly knows
who is forging my name (and likely others).

Steve Mackay may or may not be the forger, but he almost certainly knows who
it is.  If not, how could he be so certain it was not you?

Sigmond made up the image.

LOL... OK... for once you actually said something funny.  I will give credit
where credit is due... :)

Now do you have any real thoughts on why Steve Mackay is either forging my
name or protecting someone he knows to be doing so... or any other
possibility that would fit the facts?

I do have thoughts about why you think he meant such, but I found it
more interesting to wonder how you knew that it was only one poster
forging posts with your name on them? How do you know that there aren't
several?

For instance, maybe Sigmond posted the one on April Fool's Day and
sigmond posted the ones last week.

I also wonder why you are complaining so loudly about one April Fool's
Day post. It did seem different to me than the other forgeries. Why
aren't you complaining about the forgeries that happened to you before
4/1 and the forgery earlier today by that "cola poster."

You never did say why you feel my claims against Steve Mackay are, according
to you, false.  Do you disagree with my evaluation of his comments, and if
so, why?

I suppose there could be, but see no reason to assume such.  Occam's
Razor... though there are enough cretins in CSMA following me around where
it *could* be more than one.

Oh my... you used that joke already.

That post stirred up the trolls more *and*, more importantly, that is the
post which got Steve Mackay to she he likely knows who has been forging my
name - if it is not Steve himself.

With the image, though, it did seem more your style.  Then again, I have no
doubt that Steve Mackay knows full well how to forge images... the fact that
he can is certainly not in question by anyone who has followed CSMA for any
length of time.

I considered the source of your claims -- YOU!! lol

Snit personality A and Snit personality B. One person, two cretins...

I've seen examples of you altering your own image before too, Snit. And
they weren't pretty I might add.

I am not surprised you let your bias get in your way of answering based on
logic and reason.  

This is pretty much where most of your posts gets to - I show strong support
for something, and then you and the rest of the cretin crew deny it based on
nothing other than your own biases... and then congratulate each other for a
job well done.

I would hope that you would be able to rise above this and actually at least
try to see past your biases and *think* instead of *feel*.  Clearly that is
too much of me to ask of you, as you are just not capable of it.
