Wiki but then fun
September 23, 2005Just sumbled upon this… Priceless! This must be the best quote:
Where KDE policy is “if you find an empty space during one second, add an useless feature or something very very irritating. The icon must be shiny and rotating”, the Gnome policy is trully the opposite : “if you find a feature, it’s not user friendly so remove it”.
Following this policy, Gnome is the only piece of software with less feature every release.
They do a really good KDE item too:
In the beginning there was a freak keyboard malfunction, from excessive typing of the word cool resulting in damage to the to the letter ‘c’. On the third day it was proclaimed henceforth the letter ‘k’ would forever be used instead.
And they even have an item on OSNews!!
OSNews is a collaborative effort (much like a Wiki) in which operating system fans congregate to wage war on any other computing technology. Having started in the 1950s in Slashdot, OSNews pioneered the idea that the widget styles of KDE and Gnome could be worthy of a 500-comment discussion.
Truth can hurt, guys and gals.
