When Good Spammers Go Bad
pfleming writes "According to this blog article on BadTux by Eric Green, the constant harrassment of spammers has a price. You get a Cease and Desist letter- or more correctly, your ISP gets a C/D letter. But, if you're a hard core geek you just might get your site more notice as it gets mirrored out onto sympathetic hosts.
Also mirrored in other locations."
You might have named the OS, would help you know. There are many kernel versions, many filesystems, many distributions, many desktops.
Not to mention that you might have an extrememly poorly configured Linux system. UDMA might be running at a very slow speed for starters.
If you wanted to have a file in two folders you might have looked up symbolic links, you wouldn't need a file in two folders then, you will save disk space too.

I recently posted an "Ask Slashdot" article asking precisely what this code of ethics between coders should be. I believe there is one, and I believe that most coders act maturely and for the benefit of the wider community and good whilst also protecting each other. Would've been interesting to see what others thought on this. The scenario I had encountered was regards illegal software and whether you would report a colleague to FAST (or equivalent) after you or that person had left the company. I personally wouldn't... but here we found that someone would. Likewise... I would not wish harm, or act maliciously towards a Windows user or anyone else... even a spammer in some regards (use legal and legit ways to prevent them from harming me (e.g. filters) but not actively harm others to hurt them). Most of the time, my coding ethics, beyond the bond of workmates and industry, is in tune with my real world ethics... do what you want providing it doesn't hurt others. Oh, and before someone says anything... I couldn't RTFA as the site has been slashdotted... anyone got the text?

Looks like someone is paying to SPAM /.
Wonder who that could be?
CmdrTaco, or whoever is reading.
The GNAA buch is a buch of script kiddies from #linuxwarez on efnet, the figurehead of this movement is namely a kiddie by the name of timecop. I hope this information is of use to you.

> have been harassed and even threatened by Windows users because I prefer to use Linux.
:)
I have been similarly abused when I explain to *nix geeks that I prefer Windows because it runs all the apps I need to actually get my day-to-day work done. I do run Linux on some boxes at home however.
Needless to say, all these critics are all pale, skinny pathtic weeds or smelly, bearded fatties, so even my 110 pound girlfriend can swat them with a kung-foo kick and thus save me the trouble
