The future of unix at hp

From the article:
UNIX
HP and Compaq both offered UNIX operating systems: HP-UX and Compaq Tru64(TM) UNIX.
Decision: Neither HP-UX nor Tru64 will be the long-term UNIX for the new HP. Tru64 UNIX has some very advanced features -- including clustering and file systems -- and HP-UX has diverse strengths. However, current market demand does not support continued development in this area.
Rationale: The economy simply does not support long term commercial software solutions, including proprietary Unix operating systems.
HP also will abort the previously announced Compaq OpenVMS(TM) roadmap, including the port to Itanium.
There you have it folks, proprietary unix is dying.

My Turkey-Baster Pregnancy With Hemos
by
Anonymous Coward
·
· Score: -1, Troll
I am a lesbian, deeply involved with a woman of lusty beauty such as
most men will never know. Her hair is short and blonde. Her face is
bold, with a nice sexy square jaw. She has small breasts, and
muscular arms and legs, and even a slight hint of a six-pack. Just
the mere thought of her body gets my juices flowing.
She and
I have been carpet munching for well over five years now. We love
each other deeply, but it seems we've reached an impasse in our
relationship. Every night, I lick and I lick and I lick. I finger,
finger, finger. I also get the attention back with all sorts of
creative ideas from my partner. Everything from dildos, to finger
paints (when I am on my period), to meat tenderizer. However, no
matter how much sexual gratification we exchange, it seems to be
wearing down.
One day, while surfing on Slashdot, I learned
about an interesting technique involving a turkey baster. The basic
idea is that you fill a turkey
baster with semen,
then insert that tool into the vagina,
and squeeze out its contents. With this in mind, I contemplated the
idea of getting pregnant with this method, and having a baby with my
partner.
I approached my beautiful mate and asked him if she
wanted to have a baby. Her face lit up! She seemed to be excited;
imbued with new life! However, the euphoria rapidly dissipated when
she came to the realization that she did not possess the proper
equipment to get me pregnant. I quickly responded that "indeed you
do have the right equipment! It's in the kitchen, I'll show
you." Promptly, we waltzed into the kitchen and out of a drawer, I
produced the turkey baster that would bring a new life into world.
The next job was to find a source of sperm. Sperm is not hard to
come by. Men ejaculate tens of thousands of
gallons of it every day. We figured it'd be easy to acquire a
nice hot, steaming load of cum from virtually any man. One day, I
stood outside the door of our home, close to the sidewalk, top-less,
and perking my lively breasts at any man who passed. Most simply
gawked, but some actually tried to touch, but quickly walked away
before doing so. Pretty soon, a
nice young man came along who took such an interest in my tits
that he seemed to forget about all else! Before long, I had him in
our house and I was giving him a blowjob before he even knew what
happened. As soon as he shot a big load into my mouth, I grabbed the
baster and spit the load into it. He looked puzzled, but quickly
realized the bizarre situation he was in and left immediately. I paid
him no mind.
"Quickly," I shouted to my lover, "fuck me with
this thing!" My lover grabbed the baster, thrust it into my eager
beaver, and began to thrust like she was a man. I rubbed her clit and
fingered her and she tweaked my boobs and fondled my own clit. When
we were both about to climax, she squeezed the bulb of the turkey
baster, squirting the whole load deep into my uterus. The warm, thick
feeling of it drove me wild! When we were done, we rubbed oil all
over each other's bodies, praying to the Lord Jesus that we would get
pregnant.
Over the next few weeks, signs of something unusual
began to show. As it turns out, I was not only pregnant, I had herpes
too. Fucking Hemos! My life was turned upside down, but that story
is for another day...

(0) large company 1 merges with large comany 2 to become super-large company, LargeCo.
(1) things are cut and tweaked for months
(2)LargeCo takes as much money as it can from the general populace, exactly as it was designed to do.
(3) in 2 years everyone looks back and says, "gee, we shouldn't have merged. Oh well, we're still good at taking people's money!"
I think that all of the machines running HPUX should be turned into Hockey PUX.
It's an even worse OS than AIX (pronounced "aches").
I'd take Tru64 over Hocky S^HPUX any day...

And what about Solaris? No Volume Manager by default, you have to buy one from Veritas. No decent graphical admin tool for newbies (like HP-UX's SAM or AIX's SMIT). And what's this with home directories being in/export/home? HP-UX has some strong HA software in MC/Service Guard, where SUN's clustering is crap (but their partitioning is very nice, a feature only recently introduced to HP-UX). If you really want a clean UNIX, stick with the BSDs. The commercial ones are all somewhat of a mess.
slashdot is dying. No one will miss slashdot, save the most desperate dirty GNU/Linux hobos. It's the beauty of capitalism that stupid arse businesses like slashdot fail on their own merits.
