LoadingReadyRun: Every OS Sucks

[zelda2fanboy]

Only because I don't think anyone else has said it yet... nice xeroxes. I don't know, I was always quite fond of System 7 or 8 for Macintosh. Those just felt right. The only major problem I remember involved a bug in second generation imacs running 8.6 that made it impossible to run the modem at 56k, but it only took me like two months to figure that out. I remember downloading the 8.6 update from Apple, which took about 3 hours on a dial up line, which was practically a miracle to have a sustained connection that long at the time.

LOL! I totally didn't notice the TROLL hat until right at the end.

 

[Jandau]

Crazy Eyes Girl as Linux was a great choice.

 

[Lord_Ascendant]

I must have that Troll hat!

Also, awesome song...my compliments to the artist.

 

[RMcD94]

My Linux hasn't crashed while it's been running. :3

Also, I'd so switch to Google so fast if they fucking released it already. I remember when they said late 2010.

Great song, awesome video, and the stinger was pure brilliance!

 

[Naturality]

I haven't read all the way through the thread, but I'm sure I won't be the first to mention that Linux is not itself an OS.

Anyway, there are plenty of examples of OSes that don't suck. Who doesn't love BSD? ...oh yeah, everyone.

 

[MadeinHell]

Actually Windows XP didn't crash on me (in any way) for over 4 years now .

 

[justnotcricket]

Awesome *wipes tears of mirth from eyes* =D

 

[Atmos Duality]

Quite amusing. The most stable system I've witnessed is an old Unix server clocked at 200mghz; used as a training system for the Unix classes.
It ran for 3 years straight (on backup power when the weather turned foul) and hosted up to four classes of 30 students each at the same time.

Sure, we were doing really mundane shit and just learning syntax, but 120 simultaneous users PuTTY'd into a cheap ass 200mghz machine is impressive no matter how you slice it.

Ironically (or fittingly) enough, when they retired that box and loaded a distro of Linux onto their new system (a 2ghz, dual core), it crashed every other week doing the same shit.

I saw this on desert bus, it's so trye.
And before you say 'Oh, but Linux is so cool and good.' no it's not! If the OS can't run a single bloody programme then it's not a good OS!

I can run any program you want it too. In my experience the number of things you can get Linux to run is directly proportional to user intelligence plus a constant of 1 (for the shell).

 

[gameoni]

i agree something about the raw acoustic guitar during desert bus sounded better the this version but still a funny song.

 

[Wintermoot]

sad but true, not a day passes without a program or OS locking up on my Vista Laptop

 

[Wintermoot]

get a console

because it's true, every OS sucks.

if you're talking about for work then?
Apple - good for MultiMedia
Windows - good for corporate/professional business

Linux - as the video said "for elitist nerds" XD if you know how to run it, you may have no life

Linux is great for stuff like servers or if you want PC,s on the cheap for a company it basicly runs on everythign that,s equiped with a optic drive

 

[CD repo man]

My computer crashed while i was watching this.
Oh, irony, you're a dick.

 

[RTR]

So true

 

[Denamic]

7 weeks and 5 days uptime now on windoze 7.
Last bluscreen I got was three years ago, and that was because of a faulty sound card.

 

[tbug]

Crazy Eyes Girl as Linux was a great choice.

Agreed. Missie pretty much steals any video she's in. Everyone did a great job, though!

 

[Le_Lisra]

The second computer we had at home ran Windows ME.

So.. yeah.

Worst years ever, computerwise.

 

[Falseprophet]

Good one!
never heard about that Xerox thing though
