Updating your OS

How often do you /prog/rammers update your operating system? If you use Windows or Mac OS X, fuck off you aren't a programmer.

It's fucking ed. How much testing does it needs? Not to mention Debian people should really shut the fuck up and not mess with other people's code, at least Apple doesn't fucking break my openssl because ``valgrind was bitching''.

not much customization possible
What the hell do you want to customize? Do you think REAL programmers waste their time changing the color of their kernel panic message (actually, you can do this on OS X). It's a UNIX with a non-crap GUI with the bonus of being able to run proprietary applications.

everyone charges money for their stupid little scripts
This annoys me as well. Some idiot writes a shit GUI wrapper to do a couple of basic operations and puts a $9.99 tag on it. Solution: You don't need shit GUI applications. Most of those stupid little scripts are 10 lines in perl. For everything else, there's MacPorts (or fink, but Debian Stable is more recent than fink).

I agree with you on Textmate, though. I don't know what the hype is all about, it's just a completely normal text editor.
