Really? Does this mean they've finally implemented fork(), a proper signalling system, etc?

No, it means that it doesn't have any of that stupid crap.

Oh, so you still have to call this thing which accepts ten parameters instead?

You raise a good point, but I am unpersuaded. The thought of developing for Linux sickens me. There is no consistency and everything is so arbitrary.

Sometimes it's more fun to use these ones:

Yeah, you're right.

I like windows because 99% of the time it ``just works'' and you don't have to read mans, google the fuck out of google for obscure error messages, or compile anything with gcc-4.6 and not gcc-4.7.  Sure, sometimes ubanto installs just fine on a custom box (i. e. not on a typical configuration for which Canonical tests without doubt, but onto something with a different network card).  Sometimes your favorite programs don't cause nouveau to hang and lock your computer.  Sometimes you get 100% performance on the first try without having to find and install firmware.  But every time I installed Debian or Ubuntu on a new computer at work, I had to do some fucking voodoo here and there, which usually took at least 1 hour before I could get to X and 2-3 hours afterwards.

I don't use Windows myself because I hate popular ``standard'' configurations and ways of working.  My typing speed is extreme, I rarely ever use mouse when programming, I hate [Alt]+Fn-style ``hotkeys'', I detest modal configuration windows that make configuration a PITA even in Windows 8.  If I could live with the ``standard'' being shoved down my throat, I'd ditch Debian and buy a ``genuine'' copy of whatever Windows is being sold now.

I use Linux because it's the only somewhat usable open source system.  I value my privacy and safety, and I distrust software companies who refuse to reveal the source code to their products.

But the man pages are the best part! It fits right on your computer, it does.

or compile anything with gcc-4.6 and not gcc-4.7
Das what happens when you compile broken code.

But every time I installed Debian or Ubuntu on a new computer at work, I had to do some fucking voodoo here and there, which usually took at least 1 hour before I could get to X and 2-3 hours afterwards.
Das what happens when you don't wear a diaper. When I wear my diaper everything goes according to plan.

You cats should try writing a signal handler that catches SIGINT, then try to raise it as you would with Ctrl-C. Das when you find out that lil tucker's first computer don't got no signals, and boy does it ouch! When billy boy throws lil tucker's first computer out the window and steps into the wilderness, younicks and younicks accessories are what he finds!

younicks and younicks accessories are what he finds!
Invariably, yes! What you must do is LEAP into the wilderness! LEAP! LEAP!, and push lil tucker's first computer behind you!

I'd have no problem with reading man pages all day if they were actually useful old BSD/Plan 9 style manpages. Instead I have to trawl through fifty lines of GNUshit until I find out I have to use GNU TeXinfo to find information on whatever it is I'm looking for.

Don't change these.
