  3. Linux people are stupid. by rhizome · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I weary of the non-SCO side of this battle treating SCO like a bunch of idiots. Shit or get off the pot, FSF/GNU/etc., I'm sure the SCO camp is well aware of copyright laws and they probably don't need to be reminded. I've heard that they even have lawyers! It seems obvious to me that the fight is going to be on terms of interpretation rather than one side not knowing that there are 800 laws across the earth that prohibit what they're doing.

    IBM has their own problems, so if Linux stakeholders CAN do something about it, then do it. Quit engaging in these mental masturbation and Dr. Phil melodramatics. I'm sure we can get a PayPal jar sufficiently filled just by the people who are sick of watching the minutiae played out on the pages of Slashdot, the most ineffectual political machine evar.
