5th Anniversary of Open Source
Augustus De Morgan writes "Five years ago today a brainstorming session in Palo Alto led to the adoption and promotion of the "open source" label. (You can find references to the label much earlier, however.) For some, it was a dark divergence from the free software movement; for others, the beginning of the adoption of key software principles into mainstream. Here's a growing set of resources and stories about the history of free and open source software, and a lament about the decline of altruism in the open source community."
The 20th Anniversary of the internet! I've been drunk for months.
fix that awful gnome file dialog, it sucks troll balls
for the fp because the front page told me there were no comments, but when I got here, my chances were dashed.
Today is the 3rd anniversery of "first post"
Altruism is strictly for pussies.
This sounds like the kind of socialist drivel that Michael Sims would spout, not timothy.
I am disappointed.
Please god why won't you die?
Imagine a beowulf cluster of these!
LOL
No, but you can get assfucked by a gay orangutan. I bet you are jacking off thinking of that right now you friggin' son of a bitch.
Did you hear the one about the three squaws? One lived in a tent of deer hide and had a son, one lived in a tent of elk hide and had a son, and the third lived in a tent of hippopotamus hide and had twin sons. So, the sons of the squaw of the hippopotomas are equal to the sons of the squaws of the other two hides. ZING!
Only if you're willing to puke afterwards so that others can take a look at it and it remains "free as in cake".
it would be called GNU/Open Source
Is karma the only envy from which you suffer?

If your bitterest enemies are people who hack the heads off civilians, then I would say you're doing something right.
