(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

yes i can tell this judgement by your avitar which is dull and boring where as mine is more upfront can see it more clearly

my avatar is a picture of me

i am dull and boring [aspire to be]

i cannot believe i am having this conversation

Yes well like i say the wallpaper should not be dull and boring it should be brightly coloured so that it inspires youngsters to use. If it is dull and boring they are not going to want to use it are they.

What is going to happen about the facebook chat on it is that going to get put on?

Well, Sophie dear, it might ... but only if YOU do it! If you don't know how, get Uncle Rob to show you (or do you call him Daddy these days?). The program you need is Pidgin, or AYTTM. Both are available to download and easy to install once you get them.

And please, dear Sophie, do stop teasing the people on this forum. We are NOT your mum, or Rob, and you and I both know that you are bit too old for nappies or training pants, so could you please try and be a little bit more grown up and learn to do some of the simpler things for yourself? We'll help you if you'd like, at least until you discover how much fun it can be to play with Puppy. How old are you now, by the way?

Sophie you need to know that Puppy Linux is meant to be a learning experience. We know that means you have to start thinking and acting a bit more grown up but we also know that you won't learn, dear Sophie, if we simply do it all for you! Please tell Rob that "indolence" - look it up in Rob's Oxford dictionary - is certainly not a good thing to be teaching young people.

Wow........

thanks pl, i took the pic by squishing my face against a scanner, so i AM peering out [or in] a little window, actually...

as regards boring, a long time ago a good friend said she thought there were two types of people in the world, boring people and stupid people

which would you rather be?

sophie, look at this-

and leave the adults alone . . .

Thanks for jumping in there WhoDo, I was trying to be polite even though this was an Ecomoney setup from the beginning.

It is doing a disservice to the individual to give them an alpha to try Puppy but it is doing an even greater disservice to Puppy.

When I was a child, television and most movies were black,white
and shades of grey. People of all ages enjoyed them just as much
then as they do now.

Too much ecomoney "red herring" hot air.

For you information 'WhoDo' Rob is not not my uncle or my 'Daddy' as you put it I am the babysitter.

You should never ask a female how old they are that is just damn right rude.

My 2 cents: All I wanna do is try it for myself, but cannot find a download.
