LinuxTag To SCO: Detail Code Theft Or Retract Claims

RoLi writes "Heise has a story (The babelfish translation sounds like a speech from Yoda, but the important facts are translated correctly.) about LinuxTag taking legal action against SCO. SCO will either have to retract their claims, disclose their "proof" (if it exists) or be fined. That's certainly good news." Update: 05/26 17:25 GMT by T : Reader Fizz points to the more understandable LinuxTag press release (in English and German), and adds: "The notice, dated Friday, May 23, maintains that SCO Group is sowing uncertainty among the community of GNU/Linux users, developers and suppliers."

We should all do this

[Anonymous Coward]

Linux users of the world should unite. After all, SCO is threatening all of us, right? Anyone like minded, email me pdubb@aol.com, and maybe we can get a petition going or something.

Well no shit. Gartner *would* say that since they are in bed with MS.

Every day, I'm more convinced that MS put SCO up to this bullshit lawsuit.

Why liberals hate Bush...

[Goonie]

I would have thought it was perfectly obvious why liberals hate Bush. To their (well, our, because if I was American I would be classified as a liberal and would vote Democrat) way of thinking:

• He should never have won the election in the first place - even ignoring what went down in Florida, if Nader hadn't been so stupid Gore would certainly have won.
• Bush, and the Bush team, get a free pass from the mainstream press on their personal conduct and integrity on considerably more serious issues than what Clinton was given the third degree over.
• Bush and the GOP regularly question the patriotism of liberals. Liberals tend to find this rather insulting. Some of the stuff going on gives liberals flashbacks to McCarthyism.
• Government by prayer meeting is scary. Atheists, particularly, just don't understand the thought processes of Christian conservatives.
• Bush and the Bush team knowingly and blatantly lied to attempt to get support for the war on Iraq (whatever it was about, it certainly wasn't the threat of Iraq's WMD), and hasn't been called by the mainstream media on it.
• Bush makes the US look like an arrogant bully to the rest of the world, and just doesn't care (unlike the liberals who take editorials in The Guardian to heart).
• Worst of all, there's absolutely nothing that can be done about it until 2004, and more than likely 2008.

There's plenty of other factors (Karl Rove, for instance), but the above should give you a good idea.
