hello!

this is my first email now to the list - i've been reading it for some
months now; i am an artist and media activist, using debian linux (and
serveral other distribution o the way) since 5, 6 years now - not a
programmer, but who know, what will come with time.

anyway - i came over this really irritating site -
it says it is a parody - not convincing me though
i find, it sucks.

would be interested to read other opinions.

It's a parody; whether it's in good taste or not is in the eye of the
beholder. The primary source of the joke is the presence of porn-get
in this "distribution", which has the obvious functionality that the
name implies.

In any case, it's not something that's worth bringing much attention
to.

Welcome!

I wonder how many other artist and/or media types are out there on this list.
Anyone care to put their hands up? I would be interested to know what the
appeal of Debian is for art or artists. Maybe you have a different take on
things to scientist types like myself.

It's a bad joke. It is irritating, but so are lots of things on the web. best
to ignore it, I think.

Have you been to Piksel in Bergen? Highly recommended!

It's a parody. If you find it offensive, you have my compassion.
"porn-get" sounds like a desireable feature to many users, though:
Since the 90ies, giving porn consumers a better user experience
has driven a lot of the Internet and PC development.

...and personally I don't have any problem with that.
(except from SPAM coming in my direction)
