[08:46] <Takyoji> Just read this: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/11/11/11/1752226/linux-mint-the-new-ubuntu
[08:46] <Takyoji> which reminds me of the stupid disgust from remembering: http://news.slashdot.org/story/11/11/01/0018225/are-power-users-too-cool-for-ubuntu-unity
[08:49] <Takyoji> which makes me feel Shuttleworth is in blatant denial and shouldn't really be taken seriously at all.
[08:51] <Takyoji> it's also a part of "we know better than you, of what you 'need', so only our opinions count"
[23:41] <tonyyarusso> Takyoji: is there anything wrong with Shuttleworth said. 'Fortunately in Ubuntu there are tons of options and lots of choice and ways to skin the cat.'
[23:41] <tonyyarusso> ?
[23:42] <tonyyarusso> Mint users just haven't realized that they're about to lose their precious Gnome 2 too :P
[23:43] <tonyyarusso> Also, "defecting in droves"?  Really?  And you're going to link to distrowatch to call something "most popular"?  Fail.
