Grand Tour: the Story of a Penguin and a Red Fedora
GaelDesign writes "The legendary Red Hat Road Tour 2002 is nearly at an end, and a good time was had by all. One of the most successful stops on the tour was the presentation at the O'Reilly and Associates headquarters in Sebastopol, California. Because the Red Hat RV's arrival was delayed due to traffic conditions, Tim O'Reilly gave a rousing speech beforehand that was well received by the audience. Read a detailed report of the event at The Idea Basket."
Fuck you all to hell, you fucking cunts
I hate you
So much I do
So much
THIS is the official proposed business model from our only god, RMS!
1: Write free software.
2: ?
3: Sell anal-sex to gay men.
4: Profit!
So, instead of selling the actual software you sell the service of gay-sex, isn't that great?!
agreed - that chick looks like she would be wild. Get her and Ellen some ex and get out the handycam.

Tell me about it.
I was sitting around with Catie and various other gal pals the other day, and we were swapping makeup tips and and gossiping about men, you know how it is, and then, it was getting a bit late in this girly night, and one of us, a pretty young thing, but a bit flighty, you know how girls are, brought the conversation around to computers.
I'll omit the ridiculous high pitched giggling we indulged in for the sake of your sanity.
"So, um, you know, those um, computer things?"
"Oh yeah, they're kind of scary. Like, you know, really scary. Hard and stuff. It makes me, like, stress, and stuff."
(snips sobs of terror and general female stress, since SLUG is so alert to it as it is, you know how it goes)
"It's a dirty GNU thing anyway."
"Yeah, thank goodness. It, like, hurts my brain."
"Yeah, I made the mistake of trying to do my own computer stuff the other day," said Catie.
(insert gentle feminine frowns and sighs here)
"I hope you realised the error of your ways," said random female.
"Oh yes. It made me stress," said Catie.
The others nodded, understandingly. We've all made that mistake.
"It's definitely a hippy thing. It takes, like, brains and stuff." Giggle, giggle.
"Definitely," chorused the girls.
"I mean, take those dirty GNU hippies on SLUG," said I, sensibly. "Why do your own GNU/Linux... stuff, when there are those GNU guys on SLUG? I mean, like, they're so gay. They do all this stuff, like, all the time. There's no point."
The others nodded at my concise summary of the situation.
"I mean, I used to do SLUG, right?" said I. "And then, I realised how painful I was making it for them with all my female stress. I mean, these guys, they don't stress the same way."
"Really?" chorused the listeners.
there's a difference between ordinary stress and female stress? When girls on SLUG have a problem right, the hippies pick up on the stress, it's special female stress. It used to freak them out. They'd pick up on it right away - 'female stress.' Not just any old stess, they'd point out that it was female stress. They used to make such an effort to point it out. The slightest little problem I had, and they'd detect it - 'arg!' were the cries 'a stressed female, not a pretty sight.' Even, if, you know, I thought I was stessing about something that was, like, totally gender free, like hardware or something, they'd recognise the female stress.
"And here was I, like, a stressed female, and I'm thinking, yeah, hey. I didn't want to disturb all these dirty SLUG hippies with my female stress. I mean, they're so gay, and they were so quick to jump on the female stress whenever I did something, I thought they must have a point. So now I've left them to it."
The girls nodded approvingly.
And then we went on to assess the sexual attractiveness of these particular guys from SLUG, the ones that we had so unwittingly stressed on, but maybe you don't want to know what we said.

Is that where everyone builds their own car out of whatever's lying around the neighborhood and then bitches out the cops who ticket them for creating a hazardous driving condition?
