Australian Linux User Group Fights Back Against SCO
ashitaka writes "The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting that an Open Source group has gone on the offensive in response to SCO's latest demands that Linux users must buy a Unixware license to avoid any possible future unpleasantries. 'Open Source Victoria today filed a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, asking it to investigate SCO's activities in light of 'unsubstantiated claims and extortive legal threats for money' against possibly hundreds of thousands of Australians.' I especially like the last bit: 'One feels that this whole fiasco is the IT industry equivalent of a Nigerian scam or internet extortion ploy.' Oh yeah.."
In your face, Professor Johansen!
About time too. Now to RTFA... :)
Donald 'Duck' Dunn: We had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline.
I was sitting there pondering if I should fart. My ass was percolating something fierce. It was a shit earlier. I thought i cleared my colon. I was thinking, the percolating bubbling brown paint like mixture with bergs of snickers - was it all out?
I ripped a few sets of ass without event. The farts came off as a sour rhubarb and garbage smell; quite relieving.
Then the mother of all farts came. This was promising to end my ass cheek shifting and squirming to expulse the trapped air in my seat cushion.
I ripped ass, and instead, I got a brownie batter mud pie in my ass made of feculent slime. Oh fuck, It stinks so bad. Now, as I sit here I am stuffing Kleenex in my ass through my fly and the barn door on my underwear. If I can get enough of those in there I might have a chance to congeal this liquidy mess into a brown potato of feces and Kleenex.
Fuck, I just ran out of Kleenex and poop is on my fingers and now as I'm typing smearing on the keyboard. Fuck. This shit smells so bad. I just took my nice champion socks off and put them in there in hopes of arresting further doo doo river flow.
Welp. After about 8-10 minutes and two rolls of TP I'm back. I grabbed a can of Lysol and some anti bacterial soap and am spraying off my area and replacing the chair. I lost my keyboard in action; listed as KIA, by action of the South Colon Regular Army.
Oh fuck, that was a percolating brown festering quagmire of swampy, rhubarby smelly caramelized shit.

CRIPPLEFIGHT!
For years, the brutal French regime has held down us Corsicans!
When will the occupation stop?
The French have brutally inflicted their culture on our home in a cultural whitewashing reminicent of the NAZIS. Since the 1750s they have worked tirelessly to wipe out any remaining Corsician culture!
FRANCE OPPOSES OCCUPATION WHEN IT MAKES POLITICAL SENSE -- SUCH AS IN PALESTINE -- BUT USES THE SAME TACTICS AT HOME!
Boycott the FRENCH OCCUPATION! Burn, Eiffel, BURN!
listening to authentic Aussie digiridoos is recommended.
Whichever one of you fuckies is DOS attacking irc.freenode.net, STOP IT! God damn little fucking cocksuckers!
If you people want to DOS something, take on SCO. They are deserving of such pummelling.
Mr. Wiggin:
...Does that not fit in with your plans?
...I see. Well, of course, this is just the sort of blinkered philistine pig-ignorance I've come to expect from you non-creative garbage. You sit there on your loathsome spotty behinds squeezing blackheads, not caring a tinker's cuss for the struggling artist. You excrement, you whining hypocritical toadies with your colour TV sets and your Tony Jacklin golf clubs and your bleeding masonic secret handshakes. You wouldn't let me join, would you, you blackballing bastards. Well I wouldn't become a Freemason now if you went down on your lousy stinking knees and begged me.
Good morning, gentlemen.
Clients:
Good morning.
Mr. Wiggin:
This is a 12-story block combining classical neo-Georgian features with the efficiency of modern techniques. The tenants arrive here and are carried along the corridor on a conveyor belt in extreme comfort, past murals depicting Mediterranean scenes, towards the rotating knives. The last twenty feet of the corridor are heavily soundproofed. The blood pours down these chutes and the mangled flesh slurps into these...
Client 1:
Excuse me.
Mr. Wiggin:
Yes?
Client 1:
Did you say 'knives'?
Mr. Wiggin:
Rotating knives, yes.
Client 2:
Do I take it that you are proposing to slaughter our tenants?
Mr. Wiggin:
Client 1:
Not really. We asked for a simple block of flats.
Mr. Wiggin:
Oh. I hadn't fully divined your attitude towards the tenants.
You see I mainly design slaughter houses.
Clients:
Ah.
Mr. Wiggin:
Pity.
Clients:
Yes.
Mr. Wiggin:
(indicating points of the model)
Mind you, this is a real beaut. None of your blood caked on the walls and flesh flying out of the windows incommoding the passers-by with this one.
(confidentially)
My life has been leading up to this.
Client 2:
Yes, and well done, but we wanted an apartment block.
Mr. Wiggin:
May I ask you to reconsider.
Clients:
Well...
Mr. Wiggin:
You wouldn't regret this. Think of the tourist trade.
Client 1:
I'm sorry. We want a block of flats, not an abattoir.
Mr. Wiggin:
Client 2:
We're sorry you feel that way, but we did want a block of flats, nice though the abattoir is.
BOO! TERRO
Well said. There's an interesting comment along these lines over at Tubgirl tech archive
I love Australia. We manage to get organised about insipid and vexacious cases about software but are apathetic about real issues: the copyright amendment act (DMCA), anti-terrorist leglislation (PATRIOT), the continual incarceration of asylum seekers in desert gulags, etc, etc. Maybe it is because we have a chance against SCO whereas our governments (state and federal, both sides of politics) are utterly unresponsive.
Hey, do you belong to the Short Penis and Small Breast Lodge too? Greetings, brother.
What a long, strange trip it's been.
> And apparently someone thinks my penis isn't long enough so I should pay them for that too.
/. you aren't allowed to have one.
Your girlfriend? Ooops, sorry, this is

Lastime I checked when you download mp3s off of CDs that you do not own it does not make the RIAA wrong. Oh yea thats right the 3 million users on Kazaa right now are just downloading backups of cds they lost. Yes ok thats the ticket!
If Microsoft and the RIAA could ever be pitted against each other, I believe would we have to call it the "Ultimate Lawyer Deathmatch Smackdown"

It turns out that it is actually just a 30 year old fallout shelter - there is no way to disable skynet, so John Connor is left with Claire Danes to repopulate the earth, as Judgement Day explodes around them. And that's how T3 ends. Thanks for coming.
Ha! Unfortunately it's not going to be that easy. You see the world is full of 'terrorists' and 'drug havens' and 'secretive regimes' that are ripe for the picking. I'm pretty sure that the US can keep their corrupt, greed-driven cess-pool they call an economy going indefinitely simply by invading another country every few years, stealing their natural resources and loaning the locals loans that they can never pay back for 'reconstruction' that wouldn't have been needed if it weren't for the damage caused by the 'shock and awe' / 'fuck 'em all' tactics to begin with. It's worked for 100 or so years so far...
