      Just make sure that when you chop it off you rub the bloody stump in dirt to stop the bleeding. Also the healing goodness of Mother Nature will enter your body through the dirt and transform you into the girl you've always wanted to be.

    Debian roxors if you like old old old software and an egotistical developer community that thinks they are the driving force in Free Software development. They think making .deb packages is more important THAN ACTUALLY DEVELOPING THE SOFTWARE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

    I'm serious. Have you ever looked at the dev mailing list? I've seen them talk about how they are more important than Linux developers since Linux is just a kernel and can be replaced by the Hurd if they feel like it...

    Well here's a newsflash I replaced god damn debian with a distro that doesn't suck a long time ago.

    Oh ya and they STILL haven't brought back all the functionality to the debian website since it got cracked wide open about 3 weeks ago or whatever...Now there's a god damn distro I want to risk my business on...NOT.

    Linux's House of Suits (Preston)

    By Rob Preston, Network Computing

    Linus Torvalds is a man of many metaphors. In championing his company's claims to some of the source code behind SCO, the Linux Group chief fancies himself an environmentalist ("It's like cleaning up the Exxon Valdez!"), libertarian ("There's no such thing as a free lunch!"), besieged politician ("We're on the side of the silent majority!"), even Biblical hero ("This is a David and Goliath battle!"). But the more Torvalds talks, the more he sounds like a mere opportunist.

    When Torvalds discusses Linux's three growth opportunities, only one of them--migrating the company's Unix customers to product upgrades--has anything to do with creating value. The other two prongs of Linux's strategy--dunning SCO users $1,399 per CPU in license fees for allegedly running morsels of its Unix code, and collecting on its $3 billion copyright-infringement lawsuit against SCO developer IBM--are based on litigation or the threat of litigation. Such tactics are a throwback to the Internet bubble economy, when it mattered little what a company made or sold as long as its clever business model kept Wall Street happy. What's important, evidently, is the potential to "monetize" customers rather than actually serve their needs.

    While busy monetizing, however, Linux abandoned its only growth market--its SCO customer base. Torvalds may say that migrating its Unix customers to updated products is a multibillion-dollar opportunity, but Linux isn't focusing nearly as much on Unix as it is on harassing SCO partisans. Last month, Linux secured $50 million in private financing to do just that; the company then set aside millions of dollars in cash and stock to retain heavyweight litigants Boies, Schiller & Flexner.

    Torvalds is unapologetic. "The last time I checked, the CEO was in charge of shareholder value," he said in a recent interview with CRN, "not standing around the campfire singing 'Kumbaya' with the SCO world."

    Fair enough. Every company has the right to protect its intellectual property (though Linux hasn't provided much evidence to support its legal claims). Regardless, it seems a tad shallow to base two-thirds of your company's growth strategy on suing people--customers, potential customers, other vendors. Although you can't deny that this strategy has succeeded so far--Linux's market cap has soared more than tenfold in a year--you can't help but wonder when the house that Torvalds built will come tumbling down.

    Linux reminds me of Walker Digital, the legal machine created by Priceline.com founder Jay Walker in the mid-'90s. You may recall that Walker Digital patented hundreds of digitally grounded "business processes" it claimed to have invented, like ways for magazines to bill subscribers automatically online for renewals or for airline passengers to log in seat upgrades. Walker insisted that his company would strike it rich by collecting royalty fees on those patents and, potentially, infringement damages. Like Linux's, its business model, assembled in the early commercial stages of a major technology movement, was based on heavy-duty lawyering. Today, having laid off most of its 130 or so "inventors," attorneys and support staff, Walker Digital is little more than a shell.

    As for Linux, having failed to get any enterprise other than one phantom Fortune 500 user to sign up for its SCO licensing program, the company now plans to sue a high-profile SCO user within the next couple of months. And once Apple completes its acquisition of SCO distributor SuSE, Linux intends to sue Apple for alleged violation of a noncompete clause the two companies signed in 1995, when the former Santa Cruz Operation bought Apple's rights to Unix. Linux says other offending "industry consortia" and technology companies are fair game.

    No one respects a bully, especially one who's not all that big and mean-looking. But no one respects an environmentally correct, libertarian David who pretends to be taking the high moral ground, either.

  12. Expert Advice by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll
    Whether you are attending a private sex party or a public club, there are some good manners that should be followed. Obviously these rules will vary for different parties, but here are a few good rules to follow so that you don't become an unwanted guest and never get invited back again.
    • Don't be a sling lizard - In other words, don't get into a sling unless you have a play partner. And if slings are limited, give other people a change to use the sling.
    • Lay down paper towels on the floor before playing to collect any spilled lubrication. You may also want to place a paper towel under the bottoms butt. Wipe off the play area and the bottom completely before leaving the play area. It is the tops responsibility to make sure the lube is wiped off the bottoms butt and that the floor and sling or table is wiped off and clean for the next person.
    • Ask your host what the house rules are This includes where you are allowed to play and what supplies you should bring (I always bring my own lube, beverage, paper towels and other party supplies to private parties). At THE SLING you can bring your own lube or we sell it there. Bring your own beer if desired, we provide sodas, paper towels, gloves, condoms and shower. For all parties it's polite to bring your own towel in case you want to shower
    • Don't just walk up to a play session and join in It's best to try to get some eye contact to see if they want you to join in. It can be very distracting to be in a scene and have somebody just join in especially if you don't want them there.
    • Keep unnecessary conversation and noises out of the play area Try not to have regular conversations where people playing can hear you. Also, if you are a screaming or make loud noises during play, this may disturb other guests. Some people enjoy the loud moans and groans but many find it disturbing.
    • If you move any equipment around return it to the original spot when done For example, if you raise or lower the sling, return it to where it was when you got there. Or if you move a table or chair, return it.
    • Do not share lube. This can lead to the transmission of HIV and other diseases. The cans can become contaminated while playing so it's good to write you name on the jar of crisco or lube.
    • Wash off hands and arms and dick when done playing Preferrably with an antibacterial soap.
    • Don't walk around the party in street clothes or be a gawkerAt most play parties the guys are usually in jocks or chaps so that their butts are exposed
