Wrong, dipshit. You make an ASSUMPTION as to HOW I used the term
Slackware, and you were wrong. When I say Slackware, I mean a release
version of Slackware (most likely 15.0). If I wanted to reference
-current, I would say that.

Strike two. Not goalpost moving, just trying to clarify your usage of
vague terms. But you don't want to clarify that, because then your
"argument" fails.

Just an illustration of being familiar with the distro.

You seem quite confused. Maybe you're just ignorant, or stupid. I don't
care, either way.

.... Ignorance can be cured. Stupid is forever.

instead of attacking the point ("slackware as you use it refers to both
slackware-current AND slackware-stable") you attack the example used to
make the point.
