Here's a Microsoft Windows error message I created for fun in my image editor:



It's true. Many users get the ID10T error daily. Stuff like:
Customer: "My computer crashed!" Tech Support: "It crashed?" Customer: "Yeah, it won't let me play my game." Tech Support: "All right, hit Control-Alt-Delete to reboot." Customer: "No, it didn't crash -- it crashed." Tech Support: "Huh?" Customer: "I crashed my game. That's what I said before. I crashed my spaceship and now it doesn't work." Tech Support: "Click on 'File,' then 'New Game.'" Customer: [pause] "Wow! How'd you learn how to do that?"

Your new motto's funny.

If you get a message about insufficient disk space, delete everything in the C:/Windows folder. It's nothing but trouble anyway. If you get an error next time you boot, call tech support. If Tech Support gets angry at you, it's your fault.

Also, here's a new joke I made up:
Should a geek use Linux or Windows?
If you use Linux, you get an awesome operating system that works, plus Linux is more geeky.
If you use Windows, you're totally awesome because you can actually get the system to work.

That's funny for some people but I can't have Linux for parental reasons!

How were you able to do that? My software doesn't do that.

How was I able to do what? The word "that" is very vague in the above statement.

GIMP is a wonderful image editor...
On Ubuntu, Debian, or Linux Mint, run

Code:

sudo apt-get install gimp

to install gimp.

On Fedora, run

Code:

yum install gimp

to do the same thing.

I have GIMP. I'm having trouble w/ though.
