I have NetBSD installed and it kicks ass!
Not too sure if he is a demon though.
Hey maybe this'll cheer ya up:
There's a few words I couldn't make out, but the mp3 is now in alt.binaries.sounds.mp3
Wonder Woman!
Wonder Woman!
All the world is waiting for youuuu
And the power you possess
In your satin tights
Fighting for your rights
And the old red white and blue!!!
Wonder Woman!
Wonder Woman!
Now the world is ready for you
And the wonders you can do
Make a hawk a dove
Stop a war with love
Make a [something] tell the truth
Wonder Woman!
You don't [stop world hunger?]
Wonder Woman!
All our hopes are pinned upon you
And the magic that you do
Stop a bullet cold
Make the axis fold
Change their minds
And change the world!!!
Wonder Woman!
Wonder Woman!
You're a wonder
Wonder Woman!
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered *BSD community when recently IDC confirmed that *BSD accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD is collapsing in complete disarray, as further exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for *BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD is to survive at all it will be among OS hobbyist dabblers. *BSD continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.
Fact: *BSD is dead
Hey, I found that song the other day on some abandoned mp3 server. Check it out here
I just started up my web browser and began to click through my various daily news sites when I saw the huge breaking news headline on CNN.com that read Bob Hope dead at 99.
I'm both shocked and saddenned by this loss, as Bob was a great man who was known by many as America's most prized ambassador of good will around the world.
He was born Leslie Towns Hope on May 29, 1903 in Eltham, England, and made his show business debut in 1924 in a dancing act with partner Lloyd Durbin in a Fatty Arbuckle Revue.
Mr. Hope starred in 60 movies and has been honored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences five times. Even more impressive, he was cited by the Guinness Book of World Records as "The Most Honored Entertainer" of all time with over 1,500 awards and citations for humanitarian and professional efforts, including the "Congressional Gold Medal" the "Medal of Freedom," the "Honor of Knight Commander of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire," and the "Congressional Resolution 75." This last honor made Bob Hope the first American in history to be made an honorary veteran.
This wonderful man has also received 54 Honorary Degrees including seven Doctor of Laws, 19 Doctor of Humane Letters, and 11 Doctor of Humanities.
Younger people may know Mr. Hope best for his passion for the game of golf that is so legendary. For 40 years, he has hosted the "Bob Hope Desert Classic" in Palm Springs, raising millions for Desert Charities.
He was a great man and will surely be missed.
Thanks for the memories,

Bob Hope dead at 99
NO, you dirty man, with a below average penis. Chicks dig dogs, and if they see that you have one, you might get lucky and score. Ofcourse, if that doesnt happen, you can always try the peanut butter on balls trick. Although, in my experience I find that day old eggnog works better.
"i nknow more than you and can debate anything"
Well, not knowing how to type certainly does make you a fountain of knowledge!
Who leaves a bigger load in the commode?
He or CowboyNeal?
*BSD is dying.
Ok, nice try, but that didn't even make sense. Is that link to a jpg supposed to be an mp3? mp3 server?
How about a pic titled something like "wonderwoman" with a comment like "here's the original idea for her costume lol!" or "I think you can see a nipple ROFL!!"
You get the idea
wow. thanks for that. illuminating.
no sarcasm here, none intended.
wow, you have truly inspired me. Are you a jedi troll? Becuase if you are, I want to be your padawan. You can teach me all about the Force(d Anus), how to attack a slashbot and why BSD is really dying.
hey, that was decent... nice display of honest humanity.
I'm just suggesting that you put a little more effort into it. Some people actually look at the link before clicking.
And really, who cares about bsd?
A big stick up Chuck Jones' ass. RIH, Fucker.
Why is FreeBSD so unpopular? I'll tell you why. Click that link and take a good look at that guy's face. There's your problem right there.
Linus is a stud. Steve Jobs could give a heterosexual guy a wet dream (that's nothing to be ashamed of, ya know). This FreeBSD article-writing guy flips burgers. Hell, next to him Bill Gates looks like Captain America.
Do a situp, for Christ's Sakes!

Recently, href="http://goatse.cx">Slashdot confirmed that FreeBSD has been given away to FreeBSD Mall for a carton of Winstons and a six-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon. This only serves to confirm the fact that FreeBSD is unwanted, doomed to be passed around like a harelip orphan from one foster parent to another.

Fact: *BSD is dead
The record is clear on one thing: no operating system has ever come back from the grave. Efforts to resuscitate *BSD are one step away from spiritualists wishing to communicate with the dead. As th situation grows more desperate for the adherents of this doomed OS, the sorrow takes hold. An unremitting gloom hangs like a death shround over a once hopeful *BSD community. The hope is gone; a mournful nostalgia has settled in. Now is the end time for *BSD.
If you graduated HS in 98 that makes you 22 or so? No way is that too old to go to college. Hell, as the only freshman old enough to buy beer you'd probably be the most popular guy in the dorm.
