BSD feels more solid, feels like everything is integrated all in one tight core. Maybe that's because the *BSD development teams are usually one centralized group who have to approve everything before it hits the final releases.

If I was using an x86, I'd prefer BSD for my kernel, though Linux is increasingly popular on the desktop. I'll have to wait and see if Linux becomes a little bit more tightly integrated and solid before I try to pick it up again.

fascinating, i would really like to try BSD, i really would. but i'm too concerned about compatibility...... you know how you download apache and it says "other_linux" can that work on FreeBSD? for the Half-Life Dedicated Server for Linux, does that work on FreeBSD?
the dedicated server comes as a .bin file then once you agree to some conditions it turns into a tar.gz file which does not have a "make" to it, you just type 'tar zxvf hlds*.gz' and it makes the folder.....will that work on FreeBSD?

Speaking of English:

I'm not one to bragg, but if you wanted to show how much of a "nerd" aka enlightened person you really are, you would say "To whom do you go crying when yours breaks down and you can't  do your English report?"  Start saying things like that and your reputation for a nerd will increase exponentially.  

p.s. I'm good w/ grammer, but don't flame me because I can't spell.

Actually, I prefer "Q: Who ya gonna call when your computer blue screens on ya after you've spent all fuckin' day typin' that English report without savin' it? A: 1-800-WAAAAAA".

yeah, i get sick of answer questions like,

"does it support networking"

"can i play quake 3 on it"


"i love unreal for the mac can i play unreal on linux"


"i heard linux was only for webservers"

and last but not least

"what about kazaa, is there something like it"

well, needless to say, most people who have seen my setup of kde3 almost shat there pants and said, that it was eiser then windows, also one of my friends is switching to linux on atleast one of his computers becuase it is easyer to install and he needs to try it, YES you heard me make this herectical claim that linux is easyer to install then windows, but most who try to refute me have never had to install the son of a bitch themselves, it came on there computer o well

Chooco:
the only problem with Linux is that shit installs just TERRIBLE. remember with Windows 3.1 how you would install a program by just putting all the stuff in a folder then running it? to take it out just delete the folder? well Linux is like that but totaly f***ed. i installed Pure-FTP server today and it has these problems:
-it makes the same named config in about 3 different folders
-it doesn't have its own directory
-it never told me where the bulk of the crap was installed to

if i wanted to get rid of that FTP server i would be f***ed because there is no list of files, there is no program to uninstall it and there is no single folder that it is in.....they should serious stop being retarted with making Linux programs all sucky like that. good programs are ones that simply take 1 folder and that is all with exception to putting an executable in a bin folder somewhere. just delete that one folder and the program is gone and you can forget about it. examples of good programs would be: Apache, Mozilla, Opera, HLDS_l
