SCO Protest And Anti-Protest In Provo
a.ameri writes "On Friday, June 20, the Provo Linux Users Group decided to head on over to SCO's offices and hold a protest; information on the event, including pictures and press coverage, can be found on
the PLUG page. Among other things, the protesters claim that SCO employes came out and joined the event holding pre-prepared signs saying things like 'I love software piracy' and 'Try communism - use Linux.'" There are some funny shots linked here (thanks to reader lucif latum). Daddio64 points to the press covereage in the Deseret News and Provo Daily Herald.

Dear rotten.com,
I am unsure if you are aware of the problems that your "Incident with the bird" picture has caused on the popular technology website slashdot (http://slashdot.org).
Many users of this site's messageboards are posting links to http://smoke.rotten.com/bird/ and making text based representations of a bird on a man's penis. Frankly, while I am pro-freedom, this type of photo sickens me. Could you please move the location of the bird page on your site to keep slashdot readers from seeing things that are completeley unrelated to computers and technology? I'm not asking you to remove the content, just to relocate it.
FYI the text representation of the bird is:
*p_e_n_i_s_b_i_r_d_p_e_n_i_s_b_i_r_d*

with a link to the offensive site (http://smoke.rotten.com/bird/) underneath, these "Penis Birds" are posted by Penis Bird Guy, Penis Bird MAN and several other users.

In a protest against any more SCO articles on /.
Or at least have them all written by Weird Al to the tune of Billy Jean.
SCO Unix is a pain in the ass to use and the sooner it dies the better. Never mind the companies attitude, SCO Unix sucks!
You mods just enjoy modding people down more than up. If this were by an SC it would be an instant +5 funny.

I'd rather look at goatse
I hope Gary Larson sues Illiad (is that even his real name?) and makes him take down that shit-stain of the web.
Because that "flyer" is nothing but crap. SCO has what Paul Murphy describes as a slam dunk victory lined up. This is really going to sting linux- I sure am glad that I switched to BSD. It wasn't really hard- once I figured out how to make the boot disks it went pretty smoothly. You could probably make the switch in a few days like me.

why are you asking this on slashdot? it's not like these pimply-faced geeks have ever seen a vagina.
The definitive reference
[Set Cain on fire and steal his lute.]
SCO = Iraq, Microsoft = France, IBM = US. I hope the sign also mentioned Freedom Windows (KDE). Huh? Are you saying that's not what they meant?
