SCO Fined in Munich For Linux Claims
nordi writes "heise.de reports (in German) that SCO Germany has to pay a fine of 10,000 Euros (~10,800 US$) because they kept on saying that Linux contains stolen intellectual property of SCO. In May a German court had decided that SCO Germany must not continue making those claims." Yes, it's auf Deutsch, so break out babelfish.

New York, NY - GNAA (Gay Nigger Association of America) today announced acquisition of The SCO Group for $26.9 million in stock and $40 million in gay niggers.
GNAA today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the intellectual property and technology assets of The SCO Group, a leading provider of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt, based in Lindon, Utah. GNAA's acquisition of SCO technology will help GNAA sign up more members worldwide. In addition to developing new solutions, GNAA will use SCO engineering expertise and technology to enhance the GNAA member services.
"I'd love to see these GNAA types slowly consumed by millions of swarming microbes and converted into harmless and useful biochemicals." said an anonymous slashdot poster, blinded by the GNAA success in achieving first post on a popular geek news website, slashdot.org.
"This GNAA shit is getting out of hand. Slashdot needs troll filters. Or better yet a crap flood mod that I can exclude from my browsing. Seriously, a good troll is art, what you dumb fucks are doing is just plain stupid." said spacecowboy420.
macewan, on linuxquestions said "Thanks for that link to the SCO quotes page. My guess is that they want to be bought out. Hrm, think they want GNAA to buy them??"
After careful consideration and debate, GNAA board of directors agreed to purchase 6,426,600 preferred shares and 113,102 common shares (the equivalent of 150,803 ADSs) of SCO, for an aggregate consideration of approximately US$26.9 million and approximately $40 million for gay niggers that were working in Lindon, Utah offices of The SCO Group.
If all goes well, the final decision is to be expected shortly, followed by transfer of most SCO niggers from their Lindon, UT offices to the GNAA Headquarters in New York.

THANKS SuSE
Well everyone knows that two wrongs don't make a right, but three copyrights make a copyleft :) It makes sense, when you really hunker down and think about it. SCO has committed the most vile of sin. The article didn't mention if you received a license for one cpu along with the immunity from the standard baby killing.

For posting a news article everytime SCO blows it's nose?
Old Europe rules! muahahaha
Actually the point that the Scientologists really don't like is that they are allowed operate in Germany to practice their religion, only as far as the German authorities are concerned, they are treated as a business. They don't like that.
See my journal, I write things there
I would not like to see anyone in an American prison (at least the Texan variety), where basic human rights are systematically neglected. Humiliation, sexual harassment, no private space, no learning, no decent work, extreme overcrowding. How could anyone come out of such a place as a decent reformed member of society?
Being locked away for several months/years is hard enough without being treated like garbage.

Except that the appeals court did not overturn *any* of his findings. The only thing that was overturned was his sentence.
But yes, Boies is a lousy attorney. He's your run-of-the-mill ambulance chaser with annoying TV ads, except that he's nationally-known. I submitted a story about how he's about to be barred from practicing in Florida, but it was rejected. As for his performance with Al Gore's recount fiasco, if he'd called for a uniform state-wide recount, that would have happened. And Bush would have still won (read the NY Times and AP investigations afterwards). The call for a selective recount was the fatal flaw there.
