That is not strictly true.

Both of the above are merely GUI wrappers around fundamental
FOSS libraries and utilities such as ffmpeg.

The true successes are these fundamental libraries.

Ffmpeg, for example, literally rules the video world.
Absolutely no one wants anything from Microslop.

Blender.
Linux kernel (duh!)
MSYS2
Git
Gcc and Clang (and their C++ implementations)
Apache
Firefox, Chromium
Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker

Microsoft has some successful open-source projects. I'll let the Doof rant
about them.

I don't understand that part.

As you just killfiled him, you wont see his reaction. So if he chokes
you won't see it and if he doesn't you won't be able to help him choke
by answering.

Or do you just pretend you killfiled him, still reading his answers
hoping he won't like your messages?

Really, speaking about something to say to someone just after pretending
to killfile him is a mystery to me. When I'm killfiling someone, it's
because I don't want to read his answers because I consider them being
garbage. I don't understand the purpose of speaking about someone you
killfile.

There's much that you don't understand. There's not one thing wrong
with talking about, or insulting, some dumb fsck in your kill file.

There's lots of different people and lots of different ways of
thinking. There's no one "right way" to deal with trolls and
assholes.

What you call "articulate" is dbl-talking babble:

Beginning of post
"When you say standardization, you of course mean a standardized GUI
toolkit, and that is what Microshit has and that is what, admittedly
makes Microshit a better choice than GNU/Linux."

End of the same post:
".. the GUI interface, and especially a STANDARD GUI, severely limits
the capabilities of any computing machine. That is why GNU/Linux. with
its non-standardized assortments of toolkits and libraries is the
superior choice."

It's as useless as it can be. I know I don't understand, I don't need a
first class failure to confirm it. I need an explanation.

> There's not one thing wrong with talking about, or insulting, some
> dumb fsck in your kill file.

It's not an explanation, it's a confirmation of your pretended "deleted not
read" messages. It's a loss of time and it proves that the guy you
pretend to killfile is way more important to you than what you claim.

If what I'm saying is wrong and if there is another explanation, you can
give it. It would be a proof that you are smarter than what your
messages show.

If you don't like shit, when you pretend someone is shit, you just move
away without looking. If you want to contemplate the shit, you can, you
do what you want, but I don't see the point to take care of things you
don't like.

> There's lots of different people and lots of different ways of

So what? I know that and I never said I knew the only way to deal with
people. You are only babbling explaining nothing.

> There's no one "right way" to deal with trolls and
> assholes.

Once again, nothing new and no explanation. If you were smart, you would
be able to explain that your way has an interesting part. When you can't
because when you claim you don't care about someone, every message about
him is just a proof that, in fact, you care a lot.

shitv is pathetic. He's been talking about me and responding to me 3rd
party from behind his killfile for 20 years. Think about that.

Creepy Chris Ahlstrom does the same thing, not just to me but to a
variety of 'trolls'.

Now Bloaty's put me in double-secret probation.

Where can I find the Firefox open source code and download it

Mozilla Central is the name of the mercurial repository that contains the
source code of Firefox. Start by installing mercurial and cloning "MC":

hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/

Not really, because not everyone that one disagrees with is an asshole.

Which is what the term "shoot the messenger" illustrates: it describes
a hypocritical reaction to receiving news that one didn't like. Even
though the messenger isn't responsible for what the news was: shooting
the messenger is a very poor means of coping with being informed of the
reality which one did not like.

Nevertheless, point taken: reality includes that there's some people who
insist on being assholes, too. Fortunately, most people can separate
the message from the messenger.

It's not a matter of disagreement. It's a matter of producing insulting trash
talk or spamming the group with falsehoods or obviously biased opinions not
recognizing the validity of the opinions of COLA denizens.

There's no way of shooting the messenger online. Sad.

When a messenger frequently posts crap messages, one tends to believe the
messenger is crap as well.

Just the opposite, dumbshit. It is my victory when they read me and I
don't read them. I'm demonstrating my superiority, especially when I
commit in advance to letting some inferior being have the last word,
unread and unrebutted.
