SCO SCO SCO!

Still more links on SCO's assorted allegations of copyright infringement. They say they're going to sue Novell. Software analysts refuse to be part of the hoax - also some good quotes from Linus here. SCO and UNIX: a Comedy of Errors. Salon has a story on SCO too, but sadly it's not available to read freely. And Wired has an old story which I think sums up the SCO claims pretty well.

      I guess you haven't heard today's anouncement from greenspan... economy is recovering. Job markets are expected to reopen soon. looks like bush for '04 is becoming an even more undeniable certainty. BTW, 10 million unemployed is still much better than the double-digit percentage of unemployment plaguing various European countries these days.

      I heard these same announcements in early 2002. Guess what? Greenspan has a vested interest in leading people to believe that the economy is doing better than it really is.

      BTW, 10 million unemployed is still much better than the double-digit percentage of unemployment plaguing various European countries these days.

      Except that the European unemployed actually have access to medical care, counseling, etc. That's a big, big difference.

      "Except that the European unemployed actually have access to medical care, counseling, etc. That's a big, big difference."

      Last time I checked in the USA anyone who needed health care got it. As far as I know every job hunter in the US has access to state employment services and benefits. An unemployment rate of 6% which is the current rate is a typical and average unemployment rate for the USA. Even at that the Federal goverment has extended benefits 2 times already. You want to blame some one for a bad ecconomy blame Osma, not George.

      So either you just want a reason to bag on the USA or you are part of the *vast leftwing conspiracy* spreading shit and lies to get your party back in power.

      Either way. Shut the fuck up

  4. The greek in me by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Christ, I love Greek! Women just don't seem to understand that a man can find just as much pleasure in the warm confines of a well-muscled ass as they can in the satin embrace of a well-wetted cunt. Maybe we men have conditioned them too well to ignoring one hole for the other: nonetheless, every man I've talked to about it loves Greek and every woman who I've talked to about it has been less than enthusiastic. So imagine my surprise last weekend when Jenifer treated me to the joys of anal sex in what must be the first time in five or six years.
