After all, Google is the America-hating empire!

This would also counter the European threat to our computers, with its shameful and sordid history.

Hey, you ARE aware that Shelley the Republican is just a good old-fashioned adequacy.org-style troll/pisstake site?

It's meant to be a) funny and b) get a letters page full of outraged howls of righteous indignation from people who don't spot the joke...

That blog wouldn't be shelley the republican, would it?

In that case, YHBT. It's a satirical website

Just my $0.02 worth. Not meant as a troll, just me calling it as I see it.

Oklahoma's Spyware Bill dies a quiet death.

What do you expect from a bunch of dumb Okies? I'll look on the bright side: When their computers are so infected with malware as to be unusable, they won't be able to go to Republican hate sites.

Lenovo denies ditching Linux . . . 'Customers of the recently introduced Lenovo 3000 units still won't have a preloaded option, however, because the small and midsize business customers that are the targets for those units have many different requirements, he said.'"

More like, "because Lenovo would rather not pay full retail for XP."

Mars rover escapes again.
Isn't it interesting how the lion's share of the cool space-related stuff is unmanned? Even more reason to kill the Shuttle program.

RIM CEO speaks out against unlimited wireless . . . "unlimited bandwidth use in the wireless world is needed because access to the network is what spurs innovation."'"
Access to the network is what spurs people's Crackberry habits. I'd really like a toke off of whatever he's smoking.

Microsoft LiveMail gets ads. . . . Similar to Google's Gmail
Next, they'll lobby Congress to make it illegal to use anything but LiveMail. Don't forget, Google hates America and Linux supports terrorism.

FSF anti-DRM campaign expands.
I'm sure it will be least as successful, if not timely, as the GNU HURD project.

You know that http://www.shelleytherepublican.com/ is satire? If not, you should have read the "meaning and purpose" page. It is gone now, but you can still find a lot of references here.

It's pretty easy to migrate from Solaris.

If we start hearing about big Win32 -> *nix migrations, THEN maybe we can say kill -9 to billy boy...

But more importantly, it's telling that we're not hearing about good, honest, honorable American migrations. We know all about Germans and the so-called "sport" they are hosting for the so-called "world"... and in any case, we know Linux isn't as reliable as Windows yet...

Off-topic yet still Linux related - does anyone know if this is a wind-up or a genuine nutter?

Perhaps you could make your point by comparing Windows and Linux versions that aren't 11 years apart.

Some people do it the other way around. This is a comparison between Windows (Server?) 2003 and Red Hat Linux 3.0.

Be warned though, you're up for some truly hilarious reading, including that Microsoft invented the modern computer, the Internet and the World Wide Web. :)

..but this is fucking priceless.

No, that is scary.

I thought it was a troll. It had to be a troll. But then I read the rest of the site and OMFG it wasn't a troll.

OMFG I don't even know what to say. These people will round us all up and put us in camps someday. I will probably have a nightmare of these people going Pol Pot on us tonight and ol' shelly will showing up at my door with a machete.

Note to self: tomorrow, BUY GUN.
