What annoys me is that our local education authority, since
moving to PCs from Archimedes networks, have time and again
stated that they'll be embracing open sourse platforms and

typed up or otherwise done on a PC be formatted in native
Microsoft Office. I've had a go at the teachers and the board of
governors about this, stating for the record that I will
deliberately NOT allow my children to use Microsoft Office, that
any work they do WILL NOT TOUCH Microsoft Office, that any work
they do will be saved in open formats such as [X]HTML, rich
text, png graphics, SHN or FLAC audio, and divx+AC3 video. No
way in hell my boys are suffering the same as me at school; that
is, locked into a single proprietery format that nobody in the
Real World[TM] uses (in my case it was Acorn). Open formats last
forever, proprietery formats last the lifetime of the company
who hold the patent.
So save your work-processing files in rich text with a .doc
extension. Best bet is that the teacher will never know you're
not working in a microsoft environment.
You know why he didn't think of that?
linux made him ****ing stupid.
no, actually, Windows made me ****ing stupid. Linux is allowing me
to discover functionality I never knew existed.
Not likely:
groups Results 1 - 10 of 6,040 for "linux makes you stupid".
groups Results 1 - 10 of 154 for "windows makes you stupid".
Equally irrelevant.
But you're too thick to earn anything.
There's no assumption, linux makes you ****ing stupid. Fact. It makes you
gay too.
Care to pony up with some real evidence for that dumb assertion, liar?
Thought not.
