What are some marketing tactics that you dislike ?
  • Sending my work email a calendar invite as the first communication. Just because you want to sell it doesn't mean I want to buy it. Or even hear about it. If a calendar event is the first thing you send me, I will be the avatar of snark. My calendar is busy enough without you inserting yourself into it without my consent.

  • What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?
  • Their home/home office stuff is absolutely trash. That much is true.

    Much of their small business stuff is on the verge of being ok. Just, expensive for what it is.

    Meanwhile at work we have hp enterprise printers that are twelve years old and still working flawlessly.

  • People doing the 30 days linux Challenge are having several problems because of Mint's old packages and technology. Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome?
  • Because Fedora is open source only to the point of it being pathological. If there isn't am open source driver most time you're just boned. Someone new is going to have a tough time with it, and the community is on average a very "lol rtfm" bunch. Not as bad as Arch, but that's not saying much.

    Meanwhile, despite the problems around Ubuntu, Debian communities are much more understanding and helpful. Mint even with old packages is going to be an easier time for a newbie. Certainly a newbie unfamiliar with the way entirely too much of the FOSS community is.

  • How to feed your dog vegan
  • That's correct, but dogs don't naturally eat a "vegan" diet, and there is evidence all over the place as to whether or not that's good or safe for them. I would tend to be ok with housing a dog, but not with what is essentially still an experimental diet.

  • How to feed your dog vegan
  • I'm pretty sure that the entire scientific community would agree that dogs can't consent to a vegan diet. We don't force humans without consent, why would you force a dog to do that?
