And if I'm not mistaken, Linux also clears up acne, cures male-pattern baldness, and increases sexual stamina.
That sentence is absolutely true, if you consider the first clause.

Re: Do GNU/Linux users keep a dog/cat as a pet?
After I installed MX-14 to my kids laptop, (teenager), it really was amazing, but his acne also disappeared.Linux also clears up acne, cures male-pattern baldness------snip
And my younger brothers, they use windows, both are younger then me, one being almost 15 years younger, any way they both , well the youngest is starting to go bald, the older one, but still younger then me, is bald,...any way they use Windows.
I have been using Linux for many years, never did use Windows, all though years ago, and still do use DOS, years ago msdos, but now "FreeDos", and then Unix,...anyway,
I do not have a trace of baldness. Not even much "gray", a little but at 62 that is not unusual, ...in fact my hair grows to much, to fast, tomorrow I have to go get another haircut,..
Also both my grandfathers, and my father went bald at fairly young ages. I am the only one in our family that use Linux, and I am the only male that is not going bald.
So that is enough proof, for me , that your statement is true.That sentence is absolutely true
I had never connected it with Linux, but sometimes I had been wondering why they all
went bald and I didn't, Now I know.

Re: Do GNU/Linux users keep a dog/cat as a pet?
Male pattern baldness is inherited from the maternal side, not the paternal. Whether or not your father was bald has little or no bearing on whether you will be bald. Look rather at your maternal grandfather. Nothing is certain, however. My maternal grandfather was mostly bald, but I've never had any trace of it.
Take my advice, I'm not using it.

Keeping a dog/cat as a pet is fine with the caveat that your hardware might get damaged as reported on these forums:

But one shouldn't rush to a hasty generalisation.

Yeah, wait until those conures start chewing on wires, then they won't be that cute. They are compulsive chewers, more like little cute feathered rats, so you'll have to keep them away from dangerous wires for their own safety, or give them something that's more fun to destroy, like balsa wood.

Re: Do GNU/Linux users keep a dog/cat as a pet?
I'm Back ! You didn't know I was gone ? Did you miss Me ?
We adopted a 3 months old puppy in April from a shelter , and on about July 25 while We were out shopping , he chewed thru the Ethernet and Internet Cables behind the Wife's desk
So yesterday , after a lot of preperations , I dragged My 63 year old ass 32 feet thru the crawl space and back to run new cables .
Calvin is half German Shepard and half T-Rex and at 6 months old he is already 63 Lbs. The vet says He will be about 120 Lbs full grown !
But we like big dogs

Re: Do GNU/Linux users keep a dog/cat as a pet?
We do have cats and dogs, and the cats are kind of a problem for me, because
of my birds, I have a new addition to the "family", a "chanate",(broad-tailed grackle)
and then my parrots:
And of course, everything is done with Debian, fortunately it is reliable and stable
enough , I have plenty of free time for my pets.

Hats off to you, parrots are a life changing and rewarding pet to have. I wish I had the time and space to own one. :[GarryRicketson wrote: And of course, everything is done with Debian, fortunately it is reliable and stable
