i think one possitive thing about windows reading AI and ai the same is you can accidentally click on something that you thought was another.0gb.us wrote:VanessaE wrote:With Linux vs. Windows, the primary issue is trust.

Not only that, but Windows has no security whatsoever. It just LETS malware have its way with the system. Even good anti-malware (which takes a lot of overhead to run) doesn't block a lot of it.
Windows also has overly high system requirements for no good reason. Other operating systems function better with less resources.
I'm not saying Linux is the solution. Personally, I enjoy Ubuntu (Linux), but most non-Windows operating systems are fine. BSD, OS X, Linux, hey, even DOS. Pick you poison. But with Windows, you are leaving your computer exposed and limiting its capabilities. There's no good reason for that.

I'd feel his free (as in freedom) general license stare on me every time I turn on my computer to use my proprietary software.
As to Minecraft, I'd argue that Minecraft is in fact a bad game, especially survival mode. It has poor ai, little to no sense of progression, no challenge or reward for exploration, a really crappy "bossfight", a terrible dev team, and a godawful community.
As for "debate" or internet arguments, I prefer those to hugboxes. Sometimes you just have to be negative or criticizing to get your point across.

But that does not mean Windows is a piece of garbage, nor is Linux. They both have their flaws and points. There is no such thing as the perfect OS.

The Minecraft debate does get a little old, but the reason I'D like to see Minetest not try to emulate Minecraft is that I'd like it to grow into something better, that has great features Minecraft doesn't. If all people have their eyes on is re-implementing Minecraft features, all we'll do is play a continual game of catch-up. Other than that, I personally don't care how similar or dissimilar they are. Good ideas are good ideas. Bad ideas (indestructible obsidian? diamond tools, weapons, and armor? really?) are bad ideas.
I like debating a bit, but only when it stays constructive and civil. Anything else isn't worth my time, as there are plenty of positive things to spend it on and I want to keep a friendly, supportive community alive besides.

Halo 3 was good, so was the first Modern Warfare and CoDs before that. At this point the CoD series is casualized and over-exposed. Although not necessarily a bad game, it's iterated too often.
I have to prefer Halo however, because as important as multiplayer is to both games, at least Halo still puts a lot of emphasis on its campaign.
Regardless, I would much rather play something like Tribes, Quake Live, or TF2.
