| === meoblast is now known as meoblast001 | ||
| meoblast001 | ive descovered something | 02:33 |
|---|---|---|
| meoblast001 | it is IMPOSSIBLE to get anyone to switch to Ubuntu | 02:33 |
| cody-somerville | meoblast001, oh | 02:33 |
| cody-somerville | I've switched a number of people | 02:33 |
| meoblast001 | well when i ask ppl to try it out | 02:34 |
| meoblast001 | they always say no | 02:34 |
| meoblast001 | i tell them of the features, they think its going to be too hard of a switch | 02:34 |
| meoblast001 | or they dont want to do itbecause they're too lazy to put in a cd rom | 02:34 |
| meoblast001 | i have a friend who is suffering from a major virus in Windows that wont let him open his web browser | 02:34 |
| meoblast001 | he wont even try Ubuntu out | 02:35 |
| meoblast001 | i have him my live cd | 02:35 |
| meoblast001 | every time i have a problem in ubuntu they tell me to switch to windows | 02:35 |
| meoblast001 | when i had a major system crash every 1 month in windows compared to every 6 months in ubuntu | 02:35 |
| cody-somerville | meoblast001, I'm not sure what to tell you but there are some great resources on the wiki to help you | 02:35 |
| meoblast001 | i'm also quite angry because usplash crapped on me and no one knows how to help me | 02:36 |
| meoblast001 | its hard to show off ubuntu when usplash fails on shutdown and my "friend" has to stare at a terminal shutting the system down | 02:36 |
| meoblast001 | they'd be like "thats too complicated i dont want it" | 02:36 |
| meoblast001 | and even if i explain "only my computer does that" they wont believe me | 02:37 |
| cody-somerville | I'm pretty sure usplash on shutdown kinda disappeared for everyone due to xorg changes. | 02:37 |
| meoblast001 | cody_somerville: didnt do it to me | 02:37 |
| johnc4510-laptop | if i set someone down at my laptop, and they start using it, they usually say: "Oh this is great" | 02:38 |
| meoblast001 | cody-somerville: when i did Ctrl+Alt+F1 for maintance it stoppped working and hasnt worked since | 02:38 |
| meoblast001 | johnc4510-laptop: well no one really wants to come in my house or hang out with me.... Aspergers Syndrom..... not many friends | 02:39 |
| johnc4510-laptop | ah, don't sell yourself short | 02:39 |
| johnc4510-laptop | :) | 02:39 |
| meoblast001 | when my comptuer broke last night, i was thinking about just giving up on using my comptuer | 02:40 |
| meoblast001 | but then from 8 - 10 i'd just eat stuff and get fat and i dont want to be fat | 02:40 |
| meoblast001 | i need a new comptuer | 02:41 |
| meoblast001 | i cant even use CD-ROMS on this thing | 02:42 |
| meoblast001 | but im too poor to buy a new computer | 02:42 |
| cody-somerville | : ( | 02:47 |
| cody-somerville | omg. :( | 02:47 |
| johnc4510-laptop | odd | 02:48 |
| meoblast001 | you see what i get "(10:13:26 PM) Jason White: its cuz of ur OS"... ppl always blame every problem i have on Ubunt | 03:14 |
| meoblast001 | u | 03:14 |
