SCO: Code Proof Analyzed, Linus Interviewed

Arker writes "Bruce Perens has now obtained a copy of the entire slide show from which the recently scrutinized SCO-related Linux code excerpts came, and has analyzed the remainder of the 'evidence' they presented there. Their other code exhibit turns out to have been the venerable Berkeley Packet Filter(!), and their revised line-counts are consistent with simply adding together all the lines of code that have been contributed by Unix licensees." Also, Iphtashu Fitz writes "A new interview with Linus Torvalds has been posted on eWeek.com. In it he slams SCO over the recently leaked source code. Among other things, he points out in the interview that some of the code in question has been removed from the 2.6 kernel ['because developers complained about how "ugly" it was'] before SCO even started complaining."

    I found it on Livejournal's blog based bad-porn group mentioned here.

    I found it pretty funny and not sick. You may want to read along for a few good laughs. Go read the latest story with the 55 year old woman in leather. Its not sick but horribly funny because is so awefull. Ok ok the thought of doing it with her makes me sick.:-)

    You have to admit its funny.

    What we have is actually a very thorough response and rebuttal to Darl's proferring of HANDSE to the GIVER (investors who have nothing better to do than hang around Las Vegas).
    When the enforcer (Perens) puts down the law, all those trash-talking hos (McBride) are besmote and put IN THEIR respective PLACES.

    On the other hand, now THIS is goatse.cx. Get it right, AC. You also forgot to post as PARENT IS A GOATSE.C, asshat. ^_^
