Thank you for pointing out the oversight. Given your many misplaced threads, it happens.

Moved to ULOSC.

I am dealing with a disruptive and argumentative user. That's what I do.

Now, back to automation.

Do you suppose I have shot the last 45 or 50 years not learning about the technology I have been using, the technology I supported with my own software development company, only to be schooled by...

No, it does not. Why do you persist in this misconception?

Back to automation.

It's not? I distinctly remember having an IBM PC. The IBM PC was the defacto standard prior to the appearance of Windows. And the Commodore was fairly popular.

Nevertheless, back to automation,...

Again, Ubuntu does not revolve around a Windows PC. In fact, just prior to Windows' ascendance, they were called IBM PCs. And yes, when people are disruptive and obtuse, they often find themselves...

Who uses Ubuntu, any other Linux system, or Unix, the BSDs, Apple OSes, etc., is based on preference. Those who continue to use Windows do so out of familiarity, compatibility with its ubiquity on...

Do go on.

You have indicated that you are aware that automation is built in to Ubuntu (as it is with any other Linux-based OS.)

You have begun to answer your own nebulous question.

Continue.

Does this mean you are no longer conflating the thing created with those who created it?

Ubuntu does not treat any manner of anything. Ubuntu is an inanimate operating system.

You might do well to seek out another venue.

Or, they could get sound advice and and be treated to competent tutelage without being obtuse and disruptive.

You were not threatened. You were given a helpful warning about Linus' reckless driving.

You are simply being obtuse in your persistence in deliberately ignoring and dismissing the answers you...

Threatening you? By warning you away from Linus' dangerous driving habits?

If you go over to Linus' home, take care to stay away from his driveway. Those of us who live around here are well aware of his propensity to apply a lead foot to the gas pedal.

Besides, he's a...

Do you have information demonstrating the ratio of the number of those who have problems to the number of those who don't?

Moved to ULOSC.

The PC, as many regard it, came into popularity at a time when Windows was more appealing to non-technical users and the hardware industry was smart enough to cater to those users. Thus, many...

A PC is OS agnostic.

Let me clarify something for you: Ubuntu is an operating system developed and distributed by a company called Canonical. They are not the same.

Is your purpose here to deliberately attempt to...

Not a request for help with the OS. Moved to ULOSC.

What do you mean here? Ubuntu does not depend on a Windows PC.

Not a request for help with the operating system. Moved to ULOSC.

Moved to Apple Hardware Users as a more appropriate location.
