alt.os.linux.slackware is his home group, with this, and other
aliases. He removes most of his posts there under this alias
manually from the Usenet Archives.

He must, because I have, in my local cache, over a hundred from
him to that group in the last year.

Assholes like him dominate that group, which is one of the
reasons so few people use Slackware.

Who ties _yours_ you obnoxious creep?

The vast majority of the man pages are cheat sheets for
people who already understand, and have experience with, the
application/utility in question, and are also familiar with
Linux/Unix conventions and terminology.

That's why we have info pages, which contain the _full_ manual.

And the docs in /usr/share/doc /usr/doc. And the docs in the
sources. And tutorials all over the Web.

Why don't you run along and torture the neighbor's cat, or
whatever else it is you do for fun when you aren't taking cheap
shots at newbies?

Your search is wrong in some aspects. I have *never* posted anything to a
Novell newsgroup, nor to *chevy-trucks, nor to internetmarketers, nor to
lhs1985 (whatever that is), unless it was a silly crossposted article I
replied to and didn't notice. Keep practicing.

What? I don't remove any posts from anywhere, ever.

And they would all be found by Google Groups, if you knew how to use it
properly.

Not the "wget" one. It's so simple, even you could understand it.

Right.

Indeed. Makes you wonder why dipshits like the OP ask the questions they
do (on the Usenet), doesn't it?

Hush up, boy. Go outside and play with Bigfoot (but watch out for space
aliens and Xena!). If you keep acting like this, Mommy's not going to
allow you to watch PowerRangers on Saturday!

LOL. You must be new to Usenet. AC is Usenet's biggest whacko, which
everyone but you already knows.

Bugger off, dickweed.

You and Dan C ought to get married. It's a match made in Hell.

If you don't download the article(s) I write, how would you know anything
about how I treat newbies? How is that possible? Who's making a fool of
themselves?

Oh, and I know that now you won't respond to this post, because that would
*prove* that you *do* download the articles.

You're a transparent fool.

It's my newsreader. I download whatever articles I choose, and
I leave whatever articles I choose on the server.

You don't get a say in the matter.

Duh.

>
> You're a transparent fool.


No. I'm just someone who posts things you don't like
and whom you can't bully into changing their ways
or getting off the Usenet.

Like too many of the people on the Usenet, you believe
in free speech for yourself, but not for others.

Isn't that just too bad?

Maybe you ought to hold your breath until you turn blue
in the face?

Meanwhile, keep it up.

I enjoy the sensation of your lips upon my buttocks.
