Japan Subsidizes Linux Development, Considers Switch

Posted by michael on from the know-which-way-the-wind-is-blowing dept.

TheAB writes "Japan is betting 50 million yen ($450k US) that the next-generation of high-tech products and computer networks will rely on open-source software. The money is to develop an 'operating system for consumer electronics goods'."

    This is funny, because as a black man, I've actually been asked (seriously, twice now) by white men to fuck their wives for them. They're called cuckold fetishists, and apparently they get off by watching guys with big dicks fuck their wives for them. One of them didn't even know me at all, he and his wife just saw me at a club and assumed that since I was alone and black that I'd havbe nothing better than to do than fuck a white woman. They just assumed I had a big dick, and tried to be as polite about their request as possible.

    That's when you know you're hanging out in all the wrong places, when strange men ask you for sex on their wive's behalfs. I'd call it racist if my dick WASN'T so big. ;)
