It just didn't seem like a natural conversation. We all have out favourite desktop manager, but we wouldn't talk about it in that fashion.

- lawl 11y agoDepending on who you're talking with, that might not be exactly true. Honestly, I've seem flamewars that were on the levels of emacs vs. vim. So I actually found this to be one of the more belivable scenes. Quite in constrast to the Tor scene at the beginning.
- mijoharas 11y agoI think an emacs vs. vim convo between them would've been more believable.
- moron4hire 11y agoMaybe the point was to make the scene awkward?
- mercer 11y agoYeah it felt like it was more about the guy trying to find some excuse to assert his dominance ('what you do is not magic to me'). Which I thought was clever because it's exactly what I imagine a 'geek' evil manager would do. Part of what makes management manageable to me is that what I do is voodoo to them, so it gives me some leverage.
