I haven't read the whole thread, and likely won't, but perhaps someone
can tell me - are the two sides acting like children and calling each
other assholes yet?

Some of them have. I killfiled those, which some of them cannot stand so
they try to find ways of bypassing killfilters. You know how small children
are.

You are correct, children can be small.

Mike,

Their loss that you don't view them.


It makes no difference to the poster if you see it or not. But it

I appreciate both sides of the argument but, given Yenc has been out for
years and it still hasn't gained any significant market space it's a proven
dud.

As for getting additional plugins or other news readers, why bother? The
ones most of us use have been serving us perfectly well for over a decade,
cost nothing, and the newer readers don't seem to offer any significant
improvements.

There are a great number of NGs where all you see is yEnc. In
places where there's wild disagreement and blind hatred, it is
always, always coming from the OUthouse Depressed crowd that refuse
to either get a real news reader or the plug-in that will allow OE
to decode yEnc. It isn't evil, it isn't just for porn, and it isn't
a dud. If the Luddites of the world want to stick their heads in
the sand and pretend that yEnc is no good, that's there choice,
they'll just miss out on a tremendous amount of good content in
thousands of NGs.

See, your argument falls flat the second you start denigrating the
opposition. Fact is, OE is used by more people than Yenc.

that refuse
to either get a real news reader or the plug-in that will allow OE
to decode yEnc.


Why change newsreaders when the one provided for free is perfectly
servicable? Yes I tried some plug-ins but, like most, they weren't effective
and made the default product unreliable.

It isn't evil, it isn't just for porn, and it isn't
a dud.


Fact is, it's not anywhere near a widely accepted standard. At least, not
here where it counts.

If the Luddites of the world want to stick their heads in
the sand and pretend that yEnc is no good, that's there choice,
they'll just miss out on a tremendous amount of good content in
thousands of NGs.


I'm not saying it's no good, just that it's not better and causes more
problems than it solves.

That's right, I denigrate the stupid and the ignorant that insist
on using Outhouse Depressed and thus blindly hate yEnc just
because you can't read it. As to OE being more popular than yEnc,
you are dead wrong. There are literally thousands of NGs where
most or all binary posts are done with yEnc while the number of
OE bigots is far less than the content on the NGs. You are the
loser for refusing to recognize the obvious.
that refuse
to either get a real news reader or the plug-in that will
allow OE to decode yEnc.

most, they weren't effective and made the default product

Xnews is also free, it supports yEnc and it can decode multi-part
binaries in-line. Also, Xnews is up to 5 times faster displaying
a JPEG. Don't believe it, time it yourself. You need to get a
life beyond Outhouse Depressed. Your blind hatred and ignorance
is depriving you of millions of pictures posted to thousands of
NGs which you can't see because you're wed at the hip to Bill the
Gates crap software.

It isn't evil, it isn't just for porn, and it isn't a dud.


Fact is, it's not anywhere near a widely accepted standard. At
least, not here where it counts.


Fact is, you're dead wrong. Take a look around Usenet to places
that are very active with JPEGs, movies, and MP3s and you will
see literally thousands of NGs where yEnc is the primary encoding
scheme. As for here, the collective group has decided to
intentionally stay with an obsolete encoding scheme only to
pacify the ignorant OE users.

If the Luddites of the world want to stick their heads in
the sand and pretend that yEnc is no good, that's there
choice, they'll just miss out on a tremendous amount of good
content in thousands of NGs.


I'm not saying it's no good, just that it's not better and
causes more problems than it solves.

yEnc causes no problems whatsoever except that Outhouse Depressed
dumb users can't see it. yEnc reduces the as-posted size of a
binary attachment up to 39% compared to Uuencode. If you're not
too stupid to Google, look for the author's description of the
standard and also Jeremy Nixon's essay. There're minor technical
problems with yEnc but zero problem in practice.

Get a life beyond Microcrap.

Good analogy.

Still playing 78 RPM records? Driving a 1962 Chevy? Or have you done
something radical like upgraded to a color tv?
