Have a little comedy at our expense…
by TheeMahn on Jul.01, 2010, under Ultimate Edition
This is my son in law cutting a rug. Sorry for the poor quality, but was recorded from a phone.
Recorded in my house none the less, in this video you can see my screen it is the same screen that makes UE. The room he walks into. Do I need to goto sleep now? Or is it drink another Jimmy?
Mr. Breeg recorded it, Jimmy is my son inlaw, and has always has been off the hook.
Youtube is calling to me to ad there, I will not have it. 3/4 a million squat. 10 million wont fold. I guess u do not understand? 3 or is it 4 million here, my intentions are pure. I look out for the enduser. I have many a job. Prefer 1. Do you know how rich I “Could be”? You may see a post about that. We have 2 Lawyers on it. I may post it openly. We will not go down. Nothing like 100K views a day. 1 of you a lawyer? I am betting.
Happy 4th,
TheeMahn

Hey buddy…I overstand this is your site. And I overstand you have a family..unlike me. But I was wondering what does this have to do with UE ? I dont see the piont.Am I missing something? On the foeums they told me to stay on topic. So I dont go on the forums any longer…no disrespect or anything.

It is my blog. So in your opinion the only thing I blog about should be exclusively Ultimate Edition?

My second comment is i dont see the piont to Alpha…we only will reinstall the final anyway. It does not seem like it makes sense. Im sorry i tried it. Next time I wont do this and probably will be better off.I dont overstand why you cannot create an OS that will last at least one year or longer. No wonder why not too many people want this.Its becomming a nusance to me. sorry..its not my fsult I find its more siuted for the hobbyist than the practical OS user…it wastes alot of time messing around with it.You may want to mention in a post it is only for people who like to mess around with an OS…and is not meant for everyday use.

So you feel I should sit on each release for six months rather then sharing / allowing you the chance to see what is coming? I was pretty clear on the alpha page it is not meant to be installed, but to run live and let the user see new coming features & software.

Can’t see where all the negativity is coming from. I’m with UE just a couple of years but getting a free OS every six months beats anything else I know. Rubbing it in that thee mann is just a person and not some high and mighty multinational helps making the point of how much we are usually being squeezed.
Sorry, but I’m not changing OS every 6 months — usually I am lazy and skip a distro (hope I’ve used that fancy word correctly).
Set us up that we can donate pennies easily without being charged through the noses and you’ll sure have whatever’s left of the shoestring we have to operate on.

Thanks guy, I appreciate that. Against my better judgment I have started accepting donations. It does pay for hosting and hardware, over the years I have paid out of pocket. I honestly wanted it to be free to all and still is, even if I had to eat costs involved. Asking for a donation is not a bad thing. It is optional I try and not force things on the end user.
Thanks again,
TheeMahn

Hi Steven,
This is not a rant from me, but…
This is not a company site, it’s Theeman’s own site. He is just a enthusiast like the rest of us and as he said in his blog. It’s a clip at expense of his family. It’s just a bit fun.
(@Theeman. Your son in law is nuts. hehe)
About the UE editions.
You don’t have to install every and/or all new versions. Except when you like to test things out.
Normally you’ll run one version for some time and when you think there’s a better one out. You go upgrade to that verson.
Like some of my friends do. They stayed on 2.2 for a long time till 2.6 came out. Some of us checked out almost every version. I prefer Gnome over the KDE versions, but other prefer KDE or even a version of M$. It’s just preference.
I think it’s just great what these guys do.
But in the meantime you really can just use Ultamatix and/or Update Manager to keep stuff up to date.
Let’s see… (just remember this is what I experienced, itś no rule.)
Practical/(semi) professional users normally update only a few times a year.
Hobbyists (and enthusiasts) update almost every week.
Extreme versions of above users and (software) testers also install and keep track on Alpha and Beta versions.
Also. Theeman and friends (;P) have two (2) main flavors.
Gnome and KDE.
Gnome versions are the even ones like 2.2, 2.4, 2.6 and the upcomming 2.8
KDE versions are the un-even ones like 2.3, 2.5 and 2.7
It’s really all up to you which version you want to use.
This is not only viable to UE but also for all other software out there.
ps. re-read your comment(s) again and… Not a lot of people want this?
I think you are quite mis-informed then. >> Curious now where you did get this info.
(@Theeman. Keep on sharing the good stuff… we are curious as hell for UE2.8, as far as I could see it’s even faster than 2.6? Gogo speed up your work, don’t sleep anymore, go clone yourself… /cough*) ;P

TheeMahn keep doing your thing! I understand and honestly do appreciate you and all the other UE team members that work so hard to bring a better Os to your loyal followers as well as newcomers. Steven you should be saying “THANK YOU” and nothing more! If you don’t like whats being posted Steven I assure there is an easy solution, don’t come back to this site and stay away from the forum! By the way, before you attempt to post an insult could you please spell check…all most lost me for a second there. And would you please quit saying overstand like your Big Boi from Outkast… please! Much Love and Respect to the TheeMahn, Peace.

TheeMahn; I could not agree with you more on your comments. I enjoy the acquaintance of men and women of principle. Those are the people I trust the most and wish to befriend. Never give up on your principles-NEVER EVER!
Also as far as the comment the gentleman made about the reasoning behind an Alpha version I totally disagree with him. I mean no disrespect Steven. Alpha versions, in my eyes, are necessary to have a different set of viewpoints on what people expect from any Linux OS-not just UE. It gives the end user nice looking out for the end user TheeMahn) a chance to add his or her input into what should stay and what should go.
I have been distro hopping for several days now and guess what? I have returned to UE 2.7 as my single and primary Linux OS. As long as it is going on the path it is going on it UE will be the only Linux I will ever use.
Please extend my heart felt greetings and salutations to all those who have made UE possible. Please keep up the good work.
This disabled veteran THANKS each and every one of you.

Wow, you guys are great. Thanks for your prospective xarmyvet02. I too am a vet of Desert Storm, not disabled. I have no intention of quiting & do not care how many haters I have out there 😉
Thanks again

No…im not saying dont share it. The only way to see all the features is to install it. I never had all the features on a live cd. I probably do it wrong as usual. It is your blog your creation…and your time. I am only going by what i see.I dont want you to think i am bashing you. Im not. I just was not expecting some things.I wont write anything after this. It really is none of my busuness what another person does. I am only a spec on here. I dont know so much…i am only an artist and know how to paint…thats all.I use this OS because i like it. I think you are excellent at what you do…and i make people angry when i write something.
Thank you for your time and sharing your knowledge.
Steven

It’s O.k. I did not get angry. I just pointed a few things out. You are free to post anything you like. We are not communist. Enjoy your freedom of speech. You are entitled to an opinion. Opinions are like what? Everyone has one 😉
