I Prefer Rational Discourse.

I think the optical drive in my desktop was a Debian extremist. It destroyedჅ the Ubuntu disc rather than let me install it.As I do not negotiate with terrorists, it had to be executed.

Ⴥ It engraved several pretty radial gouges into the disc.

I couldn't get a picture with little enough glare that you could actually see the gouges.

hey, I've been trying to reach you for about a year.
The Livejournal Geekaustin feed you created is out of date.
I can't edit it. Please either delete it or edit it to point to the correct location:

Even if I did create that feed (which I don't deny, but don't remember doing) I don't have any access to modify it as far as I can tell. The FAQs say to contact lj support to update feed addresses.

My first cdrom drive did that, too. Sounds like yours is more virulent than mine was, though.

It's probably safest to not only execute it, but burn it and spread the ashes over moving water, just in case.
