« on: March 25, 2006, 09:49:02 am »
Although I hate most of them (writing to the desktop is the dumbest thing ever..), maybe some of you might find them useful:

Torsmo looks cool as hell.
It is good to be good, but it is better to be lucky.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

You're also someone who is not into eye candy, iago.  :P And ofcourse ImageMagick is a must, for anyone.

A bittorrent client and an image program.. oh yeah, definitely a great unix toolbox! (This article was on slashdot by the way)

Shut up Indian. What would you know?!?!?! >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Torsmo sucks. I tried it, and it's terrible.

And that BitTorrent client eats dick too. When I was looking for alternatives to Azureus it came up, and it sucks the fat one compared to Azureus.

I'd know enough to not have a bittorrent client and an image program in my unix toolbox.

Are you saying that they aren't useful Linux tools?  I use ImageMagick very frequently, and it's one of the many things that I miss while using Windows.

They're not good enough to make a sysadmin toolbox (article).  I doubt a sysadmin would go "hmm, I need to make a picture of this!"

Yeah, but I didn't name this thread that and I didn't point it out anywhere.  I was trying to avoid giving that impression so that we wouldn't have to talk about how Linux.com gave the article a stupid name.
