The best OS is the one with the most relevant software and the most hardware compatibility. Even fucking SOLARIS would be "the best" if it had the software for it.
Linux is a good OS in "theory". Until they can actually break through into the desktop, productivity and other relevant markets as anything more than a toy OS (android), it's still "shit".

The best nigger is the one with the most endurance and the best intellegence for daily tasks. Even fucking light skinned niggers would be "the best" if they had the stamina to pick cotton for sixteen hours a day.
Nigger heifers are good niggers in "theory". Until they can actually break through into the domestic servant, farm labor and other relevant markets as anything more than a toy nigger(body slaves), they are still "shit".

The best Jew is the one with the biggest bank account and the most goyim exploited. Even fucking converted Jews would be "the best" if they had the money for it.

The best Touhou is the one with the most powerful danmaku and the most interesting story line. Even fucking Cirno would be "the best" if it had the spellcards for it.
Keine is a good Touhou in "theory". Until she can actually break through into the Shrine business, Youkai killing and other relevant markets as anything more than a dumb midboss (Remilia), she's still "shit".

The best LISP is the one with the most relevant libraries and the best syntax. Even fucking Python would be "the best" if it had the parentheses for it.
Common LISP is a good LISP in "theory". Until they can actually break through into the game making, web 2.0 and other relevant markets as anything more than a toy LISP (Racket), it's still "shit".

I truly appreciate you as a valuable contributor.
I also find your contributions deeply inspiring.
I must say I've read them more than 5 times already.
I want you to share MORE with us.
>>1 The best OS is the one with the most relevant software
Most Windows software isn't relevant. Your usual Windows software isn't packaged in a standard format for automatic updating and deployment, doesn't support standard data interchange formats or protocols, and can't be used at all without dealing with a clunky GUI.
and the most hardware compatibility
Linux runs on more systems than Windows. The latest hardware is usually brought up in Linux before Windows (do you honestly think ARM64 booted NT first? Don't make me laugh). Linux will keep working on old hardware longer (Windows 7 on a 486 is useless because none of the most resource intensive components can be disabled; Linux has never had that problem).

By your own argument, Windows cannot be considered to be "the best OS" unless you're only addressing people who have no Internet connection and don't do any real computing on their computers.
Why the hell would you even want to do that? Is that really what all Unixdrones do all day? Run OSes on shitty, vastly outdated CPUs because "HURR I CAN DISABLE THE NEW THINGS AND RUN IT AT A REFRIGERATOR'S PACE"?
>Hurr all software isn't centralized
That's because Microsoft is capitalist, not a Marxist view of software. Don't like it? Then you can stay in your shitty, barely advanced world of Unix. Saying you booted on ARM64 first is like the Soviets and their nukes- they may have done something first, but it was either quickly surpassed by other countries or was just fucking stupid in the first place. H-Bomb = ARM64, running off a 486 in 2013 = Tsar Bomba.

Truth against you UNIX drones.
Your first pile of shit. Keep in mind that you're writing a shotty post on 4chan, not scamming people with a weight-loss program.
The best OS is the one with the most relevant software and the most hardware compatibility.
More shit. In my point of view, the best OS complies with standards like POSIX and also has good hardware compatibility. It's entirely a matter of opinion.
Even fucking SOLARIS would be "the best" if it had the software for it.
According to the criteria you listed for "the best OS", it would also need the most hardware compatibility. Try to be consistent in what you say.
Linux is a good OS in "theory". Until they can actually break through into the desktop, productivity and other relevant markets as anything more than a toy OS (android), it's still "shit".
More shit. The following point has just as much substance:
Windows is a good OS in "theory". Until they put a picture of Ballmer defecating like your typical Western human on their start-up screen, it's still shit.
>mfw I run slackware 14, gentoo with dev-kernel builds and Windows 8 >mfw you're still fucking retarded
That's just baby talk.
>>1 I suggest being less of a whiney, shitty baby. Try getting away from your computer for a while, and try reading a few books or talking to a few humans. It'll do you good.

It was never a good anything in theory. Infact there are actual hate books written to condemn Unix, before Linus even dipped his butt in his tub. The question is not about good, the question is about damage. How insane has it gotten, how many lives did it fuck up?

Why is it that Windows users never get uppity and defensive over their OS, yet anyone using a Unix-based one whines and starts a mob mentality?
The best OS is the one with the chief kernel designer whose last name starts with T. Even fucking Mac OS (pre-X) would be "the best" if it had its kernel created by a guy with a last name starting with T.
Windows is a good OS in "theory". Until they can actually have NTKRNL redesigned by a T guy and other relevant shit it's not anything more than a toy OS (WinRT), it's still "shit".

Because those people have jobs and families, and consequently little time to flame on newsgroups/IRC/HN etc. Programming for a living means you'll be using Windows 99% of the time. Not an argument, just a fact.
