"Is there any valid reason to change the code except Chromium? In general I am against changing our code to fix broken applications and Chromium is broken. They should just use the system titlebars and not do their own stupid things."

- nknighthb 13y agoThat is an attack on code, not people. It has no resemblance to Shuttleworth's remarks.
- pygy_ 13y ago> "They should just use the system titlebars and not do their own stupid things." This is a personal insult.
- nknighthb 13y agoI know people are prone to take such remarks personally, but it's directed at the action, not the person. "You did something stupid" is not "You are stupid".
- belorn 13y agoThe word "They" refers to Chromium. Saying that a program and its behavior is stupid, is not a personal insult. For example, I think my gnome3 fallback menu bar is stupid for crashing when loading its icons for a particular sub menu (running unstable). I do not however think that gnome3 developers are stupid.
- pygy_ 13y agoHe's criticizing a design decision, an inetention, not a bug.
- Jasper_ 13y agoHave you reported the bug upstream? I'm a GNOME developer and I haven't heard of this crash.
- belorn 13y agoNo I have not. On Debian Unstable, I always give the bugs a few months to sort themselves out. Could be a problem in the packages recent dependencies, graphic driver regression, or who knows. I also want to do some preliminary debugging of the issue before sending in a bug report.
- chris_wot 13y agoIt's inflammatory, sure. But it's not a personal insult, the "they" is collective.
- pygy_ 13y ago(map stupid-behavior! chrome-developers)
- Shorel 13y agoHonestly, Chrom* is broken everywhere. Particularly in XP. I have mine black and the bastard Chrom* chooses to be blue. In general Google apps play very bad with desktop standards. Logical, regarding their position about the desktop. I just have to use Chrom* because Opera committed suicide.
- sliverstorm 13y agoI have mine black and the bastard Chrom chooses to be blue.* The horror.
- mindrag 13y agoXP? Really? It's time to let go of a 12-year-old OS.
- Shorel 13y agoI triple boot XP, Windows Seven and Ubuntu Saucy. Some things (some games I like, ripping disks) are better done in XP.
- claudius 13y ago> I just have to use Chrom* because Opera committed suicide. 12.16 still works nicely (apart from Google+, which takes up unreasonable amounts of CPU time, but unfortunately there are some people there worth reading).
- jiggy2011 13y agoHonestly, I agree.
- jeltz 13y agoSounds like an argument about the code which could have done without the word "stupid", but it is not rude at all. And it does not attack any person.
