Random Rants XI: This Title Actually Has Some Imagination

[D'Artagnan59]

My mom has the music tastes of a 13-year-old girl.

Rihanna, Katy Perry, Beyonce. The hell is next, she's going to start shopping at Abercrombie and Fitch?

Vista is awesome.

Yeah, I know, and I use it too, but unless you disable UAC you can't play a total conversion mod.

The Irish government has apparently rejected Ryanairs offer to buy Aer Lingus. I'm pissed off at this. Why do we need a "national airline" when we have one of the best airlines in Europe using Dublin as its base?

Ryanair is cheaper than Aer Lingus all the time anyway, it's based in Dublin, and operates one of the most extensive networks in Europe. If I want to go further afield I can get a short flight to London and get a far better price from there than if I'd gone directly out of Dublin with Aer Lingus. I don't buy this crap about Aer Lingus being "more comfortable". Its a flight, it's never going to be comfortable. Just go for the cheaper option is all you can do.

I rant that tight security at airports precludes hilarious graffiti of Aer Lingus planes.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Do you have Vista?

No, XP Home.

You think I should go graffiti some Aer Lingus planes? Maybe something about how it's inevitable they join some airline conglomerate, and that it may as well be the only other Irish airline seeing as patriotism is an issue here.

Tried it at my aunt's, liked it.

You have dreams about Civfanatics members?

Did they look like people, or were their heads replaced by avatars?

 

[Mowque]

Just talking floating posts...weird huh?

 

[Dachs]

No, XP Home.

Oh. Well, all I can say is to try another mirror if you're having issues. Works fine for me.

 

[Kozmos]

Are you people on crack? Vista? Awesome? Are we living in the same dimension? Vista fails on so many different levels. Wait for Windows 7.

 

[SS-18 ICBM]

What the hell is wrong with Vista anyway? I don't understand why people keep trashing it. I use it on my laptop and it's about the same experience I had with XP.

Vista is horrible and buggy. Stop enslaving yourself to microsoft sheeple

What are we meant to use? Apple, linux? I don't think so. Maybe invent our own OS?

 

[silver 2039]

No Apple is as bad as microsoft. Personally I made my own computer out of rocks, and some peices of lint and my OS was made by the hopes and dreams of the proletariat.

I guess it only works when you get high... a good power source IMO.

Stupid piece of crap university internet. Keeps making my online gaming terrible and can't download files for crap. I get better performance when I'm at home at the very edge of the wireless network @#$@*#%.

When I used it at my aunt's, I thought there was nothing wrong.

Come on, public opinion is largely negative towards Vista, if there's anyone you should be calling sheeple, it's Apple (apple PCs, and other products) users.

If you made actual real points, I could dismantle them nicely. As it stands, you simply made false allegations with no evidence.

I know what makes a good operating system, on my various computers and virtual machines, I currently have Ubuntu, Slackware, Smoothwall, Vista, Windows 7, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris and Leopard installed.

They all have certain things they're good for, and I can confidently say that Vista is the best operating system Microsoft has ever released.
