I suspect it has to do with Canonical going Jimbo Wales for your pocket change. A despicable move and one that's likely to alienate the target audience.

UNIX isn't an operating system, it's a specification. You can pay to get an official certificate saying that your operating system is a UNIX (which is to say, it meets the specification), which, for...
You can certainly set it up to be that way, although it's still a "high-maintenance" distro compared to Ubuntu. Once you're used to how it works, it's a lot less hassle.
You can set it up so that the system itself is much simpler than ubuntu - ie, fewer layers of abstraction, less services running to accomplish the same thing, etc. However, no matter how hard you...
This, without any doubt. In its own way, it's much simpler than Ubuntu - by rejection the notion of simplicity of learning the system in favour of simplicity of the system itself.
Which one lets you install and run code without requiring the hardware vendor's approval?
Which one offers you a choice of internet browsers, email and SMS clients and media players?
Which one...

I'm talking about GNU/Linux, which was intended from the beginning to be a Free UNIX clone. I'm aware of the origins of the Linux kernel, but the OS as a whole is supposed to be UNIX-like.
UNIX isn't a single OS, it's a specification. An OS that is certified to conform to that specification is referred to as "a UNIX" (plural "Unices" or "Unixen").
You obviously have no idea what it means for an operating system to be a UNIX. Mac OSX has received the open brand UNIX 03 certification, that makes it a UNIX, just like AIX, Solaris, HP/UX and other...
I thought the certification means OSX is a UNIX, whereas GNU/Linux is "UNIX-like"?
On a more topical note, I'm absolutely disgusted by what they're trying to sell as "coffee" in these shops. Myself, I just take a .5l cup of boiled water with a tablespoon of finely ground beans.

No, my religious beliefs forbid supporting businesses populated primarily by Apple users.
I've found out about it a few years ago and solved 62 problems, mostly in Python and Mathematica - really can't be bothered using programming languages without built-in arbitrary precision arithmetic...
Tell that to the walking biological weapons I always seem to notice in the vicinity of bus and train stops.
Really, this isn't rocket science: If you're sick, stay away from crowded places.
I can definitely relate to this. The public transportation system is perceived as such low status here, most people who can afford to would probably avoid it even if it weren't inferior to every...
More ancient aliens, of course.
Really? You think you people who trust a stone-age culture to predict the end of the world will be swayed by evidence? You must be new to humanity.
No. The trains are never on time, the buses are crowded full of smelly people and would require me to walk to/from bus stops, not to mention neither are properly heated in the winter or air...
Same problem here.
Because why not? I'm still hoping to one day be able to use a fully GNU-based OS, preferably with the HURD kernel and Emacs as the userland.
Oh look, it's jobsian "post-PC" propaganda.
