I've been using it since Fedora Core 7 back in like 05 or something. It's pretty solid. I use mate rather than gnome, but otherwise it's an excellent, very FOSS, choice.

"Cock," singular. It wouldn't be a very interesting book. I don't have any hard to pronounce problems, I'm just a jerk.

I'm an IT person professionally, and I use Fedora as my daily driver. MacOS just grinds on me in ways I can't properly articulate.

Edit: oh wait, maybe I can!

You honestly couldn't pay me enough to use MacOS so I didn't know there wasn't a "computer icon" but I love that detail. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that whole anecdote is fictitious.

That's a very funny anecdote about Apple that I can find no evidence of ever actually happening. Leaving aside the fact that Xerox had GUI, including the modern WIMP GUI we're all familiar with today, in 1974. The Apple Lisa was released at least a year before the Macintosh 128K came out in 1984. As much as I love the idea of Apple making such an amateur mistake, I'm going to need a reputable source before I believe that story actually happened.

Edit: I'm seeing a lot of "it's technically possible" but still no sources to confirm that it actually occurred. Until a a verifiable source emerges, I'm still going to assume this story never actually happened. Anyone have Woz's contact info? We could always just ask him.

I'm sorry are you confusing the Brotherhood with the Enclave? They're both fascist, power armor equipped, douchebags but they're still pretty distinct. The oil rig you're referring to was definitely Enclave.

Would it be a poor professional choice to send this to my bosses boss who's current raison d'etre is getting our product on the cloud? I ask because I get the alert emails when we go over budget. And we always go over budget.
