  1. Re:Wrong about Smashing Pumpkins by YOU+LIKEWISE+FAIL+IT · · Score: 1 · on U2 Threatens to Release Album Early on iTunes

    The Pumpkins, as I understand it, pushed Machina II out on P2P because Virgin were not interested in putting out another record in a similar vein after Machina I had done so poorly ( hell with that, I thought it was great. )

    You can get it at beZip.de, or from the Chicago Metro's website, or finally from this fansite.

    Try threading the tracks back into the original Machina order as given on Billys diagram, and I, at least, find the story a bit easier to follow.

    Bummer the Machina III remix album from the aborted animated series never got released!

    There are no GNU/Linux systems running without GNU software.
    Thats circular reasoning, a GNU/Linux system is one that uses GNU software by definition :)

    I've pointed this out before, but I have a distribution for the Psion Revo which I maintain, which is linux based but contains no GNU software. Hence it is a non-GNU linux system and calling it GNU/Linux system would be technically wrong.

    In general you're mostly right, though. There are very few real systems that do not use GNU software.

    I liked those screenshots. Curious to know more I pressed "Parent directory" and found som uninteresting links. Trying to find my way back to the images I pressed the link "Images". Quite a few of the images seemed new to the site and I randomly picked a few to check out. Like this one; check out more.

  11. Non-GNU Linux by sfraggle · · Score: 4, Informative · on FSF Issues GNU/Linux Name FAQ

    I have a small linux distribution for the Psion Revo. Interestingly, I can name this just Linux (not GNU/Linux) because it contains no GNU software. All the normal GNU base utilities (glibc, gnu text/shellutils, bash) have been replaced with small embedded replacements (uclibc, busybox). So I can leave off "GNU/" and I am still correct.
