    I use Linux every day. I can't stand it because of the kids that think they are "hackers" because they know a few command lines.

    I assume you blame the kids and not the OS?

    I use it every day but know I am not a hacker or "l33t". Just a computer
    user who likes to tinker sometimes. ;)

    In Jr. highschool nobody... and I mean "nobody" was ever l33t or cool for messing around with Vic-20's, Apple 2's, Tandy 1000's... that was pretty much the entire world making that abundantly clear... including parents.

    Programming in 6502 assembler sure didn't help one's chances of scoring at
    the Jr. high dance... Some girls used to call a few boards in my area. Only
    a few were really worthy of being deemed attractive and "normal".

    Yes, and no. One I thing I CANNOT stand is the stupid permissions for EVERTHING. It's bad enough on Android, but shit just to access an usb stick is like asking for gold sometimes.
