GNOME & Mono Made Love At Microsoft Last Week

[D0pamine]

How am I trolling? I feel my first sentence is pretty spot on. These insults and comments come from 1995. It has been stated time and time again by other users that microsoft is a contributor to the kernel and nobody seems to have a comeback for that besides, "MS BAD, PATENTS BAD, RMS GOOD" They also seem to complement Apple who I think is a far worse company than it used to be with its lawsuits.

I use linux, I love my linux desktop, but liking linux desktop doesn't mean you have to hate Microsoft. Hating X doesn't mean Y is better. Hating Windows doesn't magically make flaws go away.

no ms code in my kernel mate...

Actually I picked the name as a counter to the abundant hate people such as yourself spread.

With good reason. It's a MS tech. You people don't give a damn with whom you make love, it seems.

You're a disappointment to the whole Linux ecosystem.

You can't tell when you're a parody of yourself, can you?

I'm not the one trying to make a MS tech an integral part of the Linux desktop.

But I understand your frustration when people don't want to get behind of what you're doing. I mean, there surely is money in there for you somewhere in all this. Getting paid for making "love." I wonder, what does that make you?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand there's the "you must be being paid by Microsoft" conspiracy theorizing, folks.

"I DON'T LIKE THE SAME THING AS YOU, CLEARLY YOU ARE GETTING PAID TO DO IT"

I don't assume that you're being paid by Sun or Google or whatevs for your evangelizing, I just assume you're an idiot. Try Occam's Razor some time.

This just proves your ignorance about who MS is and what they've been doing. If you're prepared to "love" them, then clearly it's not me who's the idiot here. It's sad that you don't realize that. You see some MS tech, and you go like "ooh, look at the shiny-shiny." If that's not idiocy, I don't know.

I don't see the connection between a single function, which wasn't even advertised, and a whole framework that was pushed like no tomorrow. And I'm selling these fine leather jackets.

Your entire modern web browsing experience is built on XMLHttpRequest - which is a clone of XMLHTTP (One of the Microsoft Internet Explorer only extensions that people used to complain about in the IE5/IE6 era). Google Maps or GMail are good example sites using it.

and a whole framework that was pushed like no tomorrow.

Pushed to whom?

This isn't something under MS control. AJAX is *not* a MS invention that is controlled by them. Just because AJAX uses XMLHttpRequest doesn't mean it belong to MS.

Pushed to whom?

Developers.
