Tiberiu is doing the bullying, but this is not gender-related.

their identity.

When I said fork Xubuntu components, I meant this as a way to get 5 years of
full LTS support. In Xubuntu, they support their LTS modifications for 3
years, while the Ubuntu base packages remain
I know how to install Xfce, I am talking about a default user experience for
newcomers. I do not think that Triquel has the wow factor that the Xubuntu
theme does. It is not that I do not like the default Trisquel look, I just
think it needs an over hall. Xfce works better in my experience
Well the latest Trisquel 8 ISO is over 2GB in size, so I wouldn't exactly
call Xubuntu porky...
install-guix.sh (or whatever it was called) did not work.
I agree ... I use Xubuntu on my desktop, and it has got a bit porky. The
latest install erased all my saved data, luckily I had backed up most of the
really essential stuff to my cloud servers. (I use 3 of them.)
Hi calher,
I apologize for this oversight.
If this issue still affects you, here's how to rectify it:
* dump the ROM using flashrom
* extract grub.cfg using cbfstool
* change "keymap ukqwerty" in grub.cfg to "keymap ukdvorak" (I recall that I
shipped you UK Dvorak)
* reinsert the grub.cfg

Yes, but import tax in many countries is lower than VAT in the typical EU

Hi vltr,
My offer to Tiberiu and Technoethical is a genuine one. I'm not going to
argue with you on anything that you've said in your post, for I am waiting on
Tiberiu's response to my offer.
And yes, I apologize for my previous hostilities towards you. As stated in
another reply to you

Xubuntu is just a flavor of Ubuntu, its the same o/s with different defaults.

themselves if something is true or not, based on facts.

* One of my customers, whose order I did genuinely screw up - yes, mistakes
happen, sometimes. they are none
Yes, this ^
This former customer of mine does not appreciate the great lengths I've gone
to to make things right, with their order, one of those few rare ones I mess
up on - which I've admitted I messed up several times.
Instead of being happy, they went an an angry crusade against me
Actually, no. It's just you and Tiberiu against me. Nobody else.
But you've tried to turn others against me, by painting Minifree as being
worse than it is. You've repeatedly spread FUD against my company, and I hope
