Your Tax Dollars Buying Open Source Software
Roblimo has a story over at NewsForge about DevIS, a software company that relies on Free and open source software to not just weather but actually do well in the current software economy. Part of the reason may be that the company doesn't preach software philosophy; they just find that combining well-tested (and mostly GPL'd) software tools is the path of least resistance when it comes to building Internet applications. Most of their work is for the Federal government; always nice to see public dollars supporting public software. Can anyone point out other good examples of similar businesses?
yum
Yes, nothing like basing your business on some piece of shit OS written by a bunch of doped out hippies too busy sucking each other's schlongs than to worry about security. Nothing like letting everyone in the fucking world see what you have "under the hood" to keep them our, cripes just but your passcodes on the 'net. You stupid fucking hippie liberal tree-licking dog-fucking piece of crap, go back to canada or germany or whatever the fuck country your came from and contrinue to live in peace under the umbrella of free Unister State protection, you left coast cunt. I'd like to smash your nuts with my boot heel and then split your sack open and feed your testicle butter to your dog which you probably don't "own" but you're a "pet gaurdian" you stupid cum spot. The only thing worse than a gay nigger faggot is a gay nigger faggot with a computer and internet connection, we shouldn't have taught you people how to read because now you think you have something to say. Go stick needles in your arm and blame it on your parents or society or global warming but FUCK don't take personal responsability holy shit can't do that! Please suck the soft mushy fecal matter right outta my anus and down your throat, trust me it will taste better than the nuke Sadam is going to drop on your house because you want to give him another and another and another chance, fucking California peice of shit. And do it all on Linux, but I'm going to be making money for MS because I'll be making money with MY business because I bought someware that actually does something besides steal music, asshole pirates. Go get a job the world isn't free and while you're at it take bath I can smell you from here.
Don't we have enough parasites screaming for handouts without the government paying out money for that which is, by definition, free?
