   No, I don't love it AT ALL.

   I just remember when it used to be Much Better and
   now wonder What The Fuck Has Happened. I thought
   'tools' and 'AI' were supposed to make code better,
   right ?

   Sorry, but I've become too old now to spend days
   or weeks pumped on caf digging through endless
   undocumented config files and trying to read
   somebody's crappy 'C' to fix some little problems
   that fuck up everything. Soon Linux will NOT be
   a viable M$/Apple alt system anymore. The days
   of being an 'experimental' system should be over.

   Maybe somebody is helping along the shittification
   of Linux ... ???

   I've done my bit. Now I want some *return* on
   my investment instead of just a bigger and
   bigger shit heap.

   Bound to be a 2010 ISO of OpenSUSE around ... maybe
   that's the best tact eh ?  :-)

   Still some hope in the BSDs ... not as pretty, but
   they do what they do quite well.

   As for the 'C' these days, LOOK at it ... still
   see unbounded unchecked I/O fields like from
   the 1980s. I mean WHY would anyone put more than
   ten bytes into a ten byte field ?
