when you're trying to make a joke and when you're simply making
fun of Microsoft and putting down information or an idea
because it came from Microsoft.

Well, you just got it wrong, and your comments were unfair, and
actually, your comment were 'bashing' on me!
I simply used a humourous youtube video, as a way to suggest that
we reconsider whether we 'should' (as Adam puts it), take advice
from MSFT.
For that to be taken as 'bashing on Adam', is ridiculous.
And to be honest, I find the MSFT fanboys on these forums always
seem to react in that way, like MSFT is core part of their
personality or something. You can't say anything negative about a
MSFT product without them taking it personally, as though your
directly insulted them. And then their mates decide to get
involved too, and the whole thing just seems ridiculous.
I had a go at Visual Studio, because it's ridiculous that D
relies so much on it. Some don't agree - ok, but I got bashed on
for that by the MSFT fanboys.
Then I had a go at Windows 10, cause I tried to install it to use
the Ubuntu shell to run D. But I could't even find how to do
simple things in Windows 10.
So please, give some proper 'context' when you next comment about
me 'bashing on Microsoft'.
