Hi i wonder if you can help me i’m currently undergoing college education doing a Cisco course in IT and as an avid windows user i’m a little dismayed to find my college tutor only seems to want to teach us linux os he keeps telling us that if you want a good IT job you need to know about linux as thats where the money is he calls microsoft an evil corporation that only people with little or no IT knollege use he even told me the xbox 360 runs on Dam Small Linux that can’t be true god wouldn’t let that happen i’m sure please could you find out and let me know if this travesty is happening.

Praise god,
Winston

Leeroy, you are absolutely right: Linux is great for calculating how much hemp-based tofu it might take to fill your bio-gas-powered eco-dome, but for all serious jobs you need a serious operating system such as Microsoft Windows. Your teacher has obviously smoked too much dope, and as a result has made a very common error… at least common amongst foolish liberals.

Linux is not, never has and never will be ready for the desktop.

Linux and Windows have been around for a long time… but why is it that nobody sensible uses Linux? It’s simply because Linux is still not yet ready for the desktop, the server-room or just about any environment where IT is critical. Anybody who thinks that Linux is ready for industry is obviously a fool and this foolishness will prevent him getting a job:

Not so long ago, we hired an intern to look after our growing computer systems: We narrowed our choice down to two candidates. One with a “mixed” skill-set of Linux and Windows, the other pure Windows. Naturally we ditched the Linux guy… after discovering that he thought “Gnu” and “Python” were acceptable technologies in the workplace we figured him for an obvious communist whose values were incompatible with our Christian values.

Linux is not, never has and never will be ready for the desktop.

Take our advice – the only job those Linux skills will get you is in some kind of hippie-commune… or worse, you might become a teacher in another liberal college where the government funds you to tell the same lies to yet more kids.

STR Action Alert:

  • If your liberal teacher is persecuting you because of your conservative values tell ShelleyTheRepublican.com – we can help get your teacher fired.
  • If you or anybody you know of using or advocating Linux, report them to the Business Software Alliance. Linux is an illegal derivative of SCO OpenServer, and therefore should be considered to be pirated software.
  • Last but not least, PRAYER: Pray for their sinful souls that Jesus will guide them towards our Truth.

    bahahahaha i see STR is writng false e-mails again rofl cause only STR would say half the shit that is in that false e-mail under a false name.

    thanks for the laugh STR it just comes to show ya just how tragic you really are.

  4. Gralgrathor January 28th, 2009 7:29 AM

    That’s right! I tried installing linux once, just to see what all the fuss was about. Not only did it eat my harddrives, it tried to convert me to catholicism!

  5. Proud German January 28th, 2009 8:32 AM

    Winston, your teacher is pretty much right.

    But then, using open source Linux rquires a good deal of skill, something the STR “experts” sorely lack.

    And nice how you present pictures from Linux builds from last decade instead of the present builds.

    “Linux is not, never has and never will be ready for the desktop.”

    The Pentagon disagrees. For they use a Linux-derivate instead of Windows.

    “Linux and Windows have been around for a long time… but why is it that nobody sensible uses Linux?”

    Shelley´s definition of sensible: Amateurs in the topic.

    “It’s simply because Linux is still not yet ready for the desktop, the server-room or just about any environment where IT is critical.”

    Again, most 1st world militaries and lots of successful corporations say the exact opposite.

    “Not so long ago, we hired an intern to look after our growing computer systems: We narrowed our choice down to two candidates. One with a “mixed” skill-set of Linux and Windows, the other pure Windows. Naturally we ditched the Linux guy… after discovering that he thought “Gnu” and “Python” were acceptable technologies in the workplace we figured him for an obvious communist whose values were incompatible with our Christian values.”

    Wow, bullshitting much, with your Linux-based Apache server?

    “Take our advice – the only job those Linux skills will get you is in some kind of hippie-commune…”

    Or as a highly paid IT-specialist in all the successful corporations that use Linux. Or in the military.

    “If your liberal teacher is persecuting you because of your conservative values tell ShelleyTheRepublican.com – we can help get your teacher fired.”

    More likely you would get the poor sod expelled from the school.

    “If you or anybody you know of using or advocating Linux, report them to the Business Software Alliance. Linux is an illegal derivative of SCO OpenServer, and therefore should be considered to be pirated software.”

    Except that Linux has won any and all lawsuits in that direction, making any and all of your claims baseless slander.

    This message was brought to you from the Desktop of a Notebook running on Linux. And no, I don´t miss the piece of shit called Vista.

    I love this website, funniest thing I have ever seen in my life… Shelley surprisingly you are always wrong… and German Guy is always right, Go German guy!

    Hi, i’m a gay atheist republican from san francisco, and my job consists of performing late term abortions on the alter in the church of satan, and I use linux on my home computers and my work computer. Linux is simply the best evar. Anyway, i’ve got to go kill some more babies while singing the USSR’s national anthem.

  10. zeter January 29th, 2009 8:54 AM

    I can’t tell if the people commenting here are serious or joking… Do people really doubt God’s word like this?

  11. Whatnow? January 29th, 2009 3:43 PM

    The only thing this article made clear to me is that like your views on everything, your a computer-bigot.

    I bet you never even built your own machine before, or overclocked a prefab.

  12. Magi January 29th, 2009 10:34 PM

    Shelly,

    You crack me up. Seriously. If I believed half the things you say…

    I’d be a gullible fool.

    keep up the entertainment.

  13. Piratevision January 30th, 2009 11:43 AM

    You guys do know this blog is a troll right

  14. Leroy Winston February 4th, 2009 9:42 AM

    Thank you for your supportive message it is very reasurring i can find out the truth from you and the experts you have working for you. since i recieved your reply i’ve had some heated discussions with my tutor who still insists xbox use dam small linux and that “your expert must have got his qualification out of a kinder egg” and that “your opinion is moronic and you must be smoking stronger weed than he does” also he has now just about converted all my fellow students to use linux but i’m trying to stay strong and close my ears to his pure haterd of all things microsoft. He also told me “you don’t have the power to stop him as your a woman and probably don’t know where the uk is never mind how to use a computer or know anything about them” he also told me his partner (we suspect he’s gay he never says wife or girlfriend just partner) is an expert in pc software like backtrack3 which is linux based which he said could penatrate your windows system “as easy as her (your) boyfriend penatrates her anus” he’s also championing the new multi faith room in the college saying the world would be a better place if all colours, faiths and creeds breed together and create one race. please is there any help you can give me to stop his evil idea’s becoming true. leroy

    “I can’t tell if the people commenting here are serious or joking… Do people really doubt God’s word like this? ”

    loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

    I personnaly can’t tell if STR and the German’s guy aren’t the same person, provoking and then systematically destroying all the stupidities said, just for the incredible fun of it.

    Quite one of the more amazing trolls on the net!

  18. D.Mudkips February 10th, 2009 1:37 PM

    Seriously?

    I hope you burn in Hell for endorsing Microsoft products. Only a foolish sheep would…wait. Nevermind.

  19. Ronald Ruled March 7th, 2009 5:04 PM

    Lol. So sad, but its true. Some ppl seem to think that you need to be able to use linux in order to get a good it job. I dont know how to use linux, but know how to use Windows and got a CCNP in Cisco and earn lot more then linux geeks.

    They could easily put a linux or bsd os in Cisco equipments, but still create and use their own OS. And yet Cisco is the biggest network appliance company in the world.

    OS = Operating System (Like Windows XP, Vista and Apple).

    Although they dont put Windows in it either, but thats because they need a textbased os. But they do make management programs that supports Windows.

  21. Antonio Gomez March 27th, 2009 4:44 PM

    i can´t believe this article, did you research before write this? linux is piracy software?????? comm’on, you should know that linux is based on minix not SCO. minix is an educational operative system developed by Andrew Tanenbaum that build it to teach the internal operation of Operative systems, its was a real achivement. also you should know that a lot hardware uses an modify version of linux, real IT professional should know about linux. 80% of the internet servers around the world have linux installed running Apache another great application build as GPL licence. knowledge is freedom. i have another question: Is Religion a Disease of the Mind?

    Hi!!! it’s no need to know Windows to do get a good job beacuse even my little brother can use it ¬¬. Using linux it’s no a sin ¬¬, and it’s no for experts only. I said this beacuse everybody’s (whit some of curiosity or brain ^^) can download a complete package of linux. There’s many packages forn every need. Many great enterprises in the world use GNU/LINUX (this is the real name ¬¬) not only ’cause it’s free. Linux can be managed by every expert to transform is it in a good tool for the needs of the enterprise ^^. It’s need to know linux if you are gonna be at computers bussiness :p. Take is easy, it’s not a sin because every idea is free like good create us. Free to learn, free to modeficate the reality under the rulers he gave us ^^.

    BAHAHAHHAAHHHAHHAHHAHAHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHA.

    hmmm, lets see….. 1 Windows bigot who posted this with their opinion…. and about a MILLION people who disagree…. gee, i wonder who is right……

    Python pwns! GNU sucks as mentioned, but python is a very good tool!

  25. Paul Alvarez October 7th, 2009 6:34 PM

    You wrote this in the last line:
    “Last but not least, PRAYER: Pray for their sinful souls that Jesus will guide them towards our Truth.”

    Since when does Jesus guide anyone to “your Truth”? Have you become so arrogant to the point you actually believe it is your Truth? This is what happens when people like you begin to think that they are the Lord’s absolute vessel and judge people with “Pray for their sinful souls”. Are you above this, am I.
    “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23.

    Oh, and as far as Linux, the best servers on the web use Unix based programming. Everyone that is a true programmer and administrator knows this. Unix has been around longer than Windows and is more secure. Just because the average user can’t work it does not mean that it is not used. Before windows there was DOS and DOS is based on Unix. And Linux is not illegal. Linux is written and distributed under the GNU General Public License which means that its source code is freely-distributed and available to the general public. This means you can use it and reprogram it to your needs and redistribute it, so long as you provide the source code.
    And calling the intern you hired a communist because he uses Linux and Python. Wake up, Python is a programming language like C++, which is rapidly gaining popularity.
    Don’t you think that you are acting a bit fanatical on the subject? What you are preaching is religion not spiritual belief. There is a difference.

    ShelleyTheRepublican, you are cocksucker motherfucker. You are gay and faggot like the Brian Blair and the Hollywood Bullshit Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior. Only reason you have thees blog is because you suck Steve Ballmer dick, and you fucking suck Steve Ballmer ass. You’re WORSE than the Michael Jackson. You’re WORSE than Nikolai Volkoff cheap Jew Russia. I suplex you, get you in the Camel Clutch, break your back, fuck your ass and make you humble. ShelleyTheRepublican and USA, HACK-POOEY! My 10 inch deek is bigger than your arm. You’re a piece of shit and so is your sister! I fuck her pussy!

    Linux users are like 9/11 twoofers. Both are totally irrelevant. Both are totally clueless to reality. And both are America-hate pieces of trash. We need to support commercial software because only commercial software will save the economy. Linux will not save the economy. Linux will kill the economy and is therefore economic terrorism. Linux users are cyberterrorists and must be treated as such once the Cybersecurity Act becomes law.

    Just a little insight, students who graduate from ITT Tech with being trained using Linux receive $10,000 to $20,000 more on their pay beating out windows. But it’s ok we all know you caught the short bus as a child, I mean why learn a system when Bill Gates can screw you and not have the courtesy of giving a reach around.

    I know learning sucks but give it a try little buddy, I believe in you!

    +1 to STR

    Linux idiots, just admit that Linux is infringing on SCO’s rights. You’re hurting industry by blatantly copying proprietary advancements from other operating systems. The only thing I ever see out of Linux is blatant, unfinished copies of original implementations.

    I guess Linux and Homosexuality have something in common, you have to be a moron to choose it.

    Do forget to pray for the souls of Windows users either! For Windows is opperating systems guilty of antitrhust and threat to the liberty of small businesses and individual users! Oh yeah sweatheart there is a Christian Linux and Bill Gates is a goddang agnostic bet lets pray for his soul too.
