So here I am, taking a break from crunching for mathematics final exam tonight, and A+ Essentials final exam tomorrow (by the way, you're looking at the latest officially certified Linux+ tech), I do my quick rounds, which consist of checking my blog for new comments, checking MystBlogs for the latest interesting post (which doesn't seem to happen often), checking Last.FM to see what my latest skewed music profile looks like (seeing as how I'm churning out Christopher Franke and Babylon 5 at the moment), checking deviantArt for the latest Okami stuff, checking Digg for the latest gaming news, and checking Google Reader for the latest blog posts that AREN'T on MystBlogs.

Digg is, by far, the most interesting, of course. Among the multitudes of articles about how out of touch with reality Mike Huckabee is for proclaiming to the world that he's a Christian and not beating around the bush about what he believes in (let's see any of the current Democrat candidates do that, heck, or even any of the "leading" Republican candidates), I see something about good ol' Microsoft.

Apparently, Digg is cracked up over the fact that Microsoft has a support article explaining how to remove Linux from your system and install XP. Am I the only one who thinks this could be helpful? Personally, I already know how to wipe Linux off my hard drive (you learn how to do that on your own when you install Linux as much as I do, only to find out it's still as difficult and useless as before). I abstain, though. You can come up with any explanation you want.

What really made my day was this little gem of a comment:

 "Windows XP and Linux can coexist on the same computer. For additional information, refer to your Linux documentation."

-- Cheeky (word-I'm-not-going-to-quote)

It has over 360 people agreeing with that comment. Talk about fanboy-ism. Since when is it up to Microsoft to explain how Linux can coexist with Windows XP? It's not their product, and no company on the face of this planet is going to support something they don't own. It's up to LINUX distributions to discuss how to coexist with other operating systems. Of course, you could always do the same thing and say "Windows XP and Linux can coexist on the same computer. For additional information, refer to your Windows documentation", but then you'd be shooting yourselves in the foot, because if you make it too hard, you're not going to get anyone making the cold-turkey switch to Linux without Windows to fall back on when they need to.

Anyway. Just thought I'd say that real quick. I guess Digg thinks Microsoft should support Linux now.

Now! Back to practice exams for A+ Essentials... Oh boy.

Digg: Anti-Christian at all times, but self-proclaimed experts when it allows them to rip apart whoever quoted the Bible, pointing out all the "subjective" and "up to interpretation" parts. Do yourselves a favor and don't do that. You're just showing the rest of us exactly how liberal you are. I don't know whether to pity you or laugh... It's so ridiculous.

Keep it up, Mike Huckabee. Digg is a loud-mouthed minority. There are those of us out there who like politicians who actually say what they mean, without a care how the media spins it. Alan Keyes, too. Abortion is evil? Oh, yeah... Tell it like it is. The media will twist it up, but look on the bright side! Everyone will know exactly what you think.
