Reiser4 Filesystem Released

trixie_czech writes "It's finally arrived. Go to namesys for reasons to use reiser4 as a filesystem and benchmarks. Go here to download. Enjoy!" The Namesys homepage in its current stage reminds me of a cross between The Secret Guide to Computers and the GNU Manifesto -- which is to say, there is a lot to read here, not just a bullet-pointed feature list.

    GNAA BEGINS SALE OF DECAPITATION INSURANCE
    Zeikfried - Reuters, Saudi Arabia

    The brutal slayings of Paul Johnson, the young Jew Nick Berg, and local Starcraft champion Kim Sun-il, only serve to exemplify that while so-called moderates preach Islam as a religion of peace, normal god-fearing citizens are not blind to the brutal truth, Islam wants to lop off your shit liberally.
    "But these poor bastards were working abroad!" you cry, your several chins flailing wildly as a mixture of spittle and congealed fat sprays from your blackened lips like a gaijin Tubgirl. But you couldn't be more wrong, Gay Nigger studies indicate the muslims are, in fact, stealing your land, woman, and anal virginity before your very eyes. The situation is indeed dire, as indicated by a recent #GNAA straw poll showing that your average Joe Negro is a mere 58 metres away from a filthy sand nigger, ready willing and able to decapitate you and encode your fate into a shitty .wmv
    How may we counter this? How can we protect our terrified brothers, sisters, and lovers from this reprehensible neck decimating towelhead menace? The answer is simple you wretched cretins, as of the 19th of June, award winning self-help group the Gay Nigger Association of America begins the sale of Decapitation Insurance to all American, Korean, and British citizens and expatriates not willing to contribute to Wil Wheatons latest marathon masturbation session.
    But rather than provide this service to the select few, the GNAA understands that your menial jobs are now being performed for one tenth of the cost by an equally skilled Indian, so we have provided a range of contracts scaled to suit your needs.
    • For just $50 per month: Captured by Islamists? About to utterly fail it at life? Worry no more, for with our GNAA patented tracking device (inserted anally - replaced once a fortnight) you can call for assistance with a stealthy squeeze of the buttocks. In the unlikely event that this takes longer than anticipated our probe is programmed to gently stimulate your prostate to prevent unnecessary panic.
    • For just $75 per month: Sadly our response teams are often distracted by widespread sodomy and the dulcet tones of Emerson Lake and Palmer, and as a result may not be able to save you from the junktouch of death. But fear not, for an extra 25 dollars a month we will throw in a made-to-measure GNAA sponsored cast-iron neckbrace, proven to stop a round from a Kalashnikov at 20 paces. Also, feel free to laugh majestically as their cries of "ALLAHU AKBAR!" are drowned out by the in-built speaker system, designed to pump out 140 decibels of "I am a Viking" by renowned pie-huffing Swedish guitar rapist Yngwie J Malmsteen.
    • For Just $100 per month: Round-the-clock protection for you and your friends and family can be yours. Your potential executioners will quake in fear of our GNAA dogs of war, fresh from their victories over 4chan, efnet #politics, and gaiaonline, as they shield your prone jugular with their very lives and dongs. The service is second to none, and each contract is hand signed by GNAA president Timecop himself. The first 500 will also recieve a free jar of holy nigger seed, eagerly provided by GNAA GAMES chairman Zeikfried Tuvai.

    But don't just take our word for it, GNAA sponsored clairvoyant Madame Jank DuTouche has contacted Paul Johnsons head from beyond the ethereal veil of death to bring you this recommendation:
    "The moons axis over Jupiter brings it into allignment with the constellation Orion and the Planet Anus. After inhaling several ounces of crack, I followed this up with my tarot reading of 'The Jester', 'Death', 'Captain B Dick', '4 swords' and a 'double headed anal dildo'. This told me but one thing, Paul Johnson endorses the Gay Nigger Association of Americas drive for a gay and Decapitation free universe."
    Not to be outdone, Kim Sun-il's head released the following statement:
    "kekeke"

  4. MOD PARENT UP!!!!!!!! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    SEINFELD is absolutely one of the greatest sitcoms, if not THE very best ever.
    I laugh out loud at every show I have seen. There may have been a couple with a little less humor than other episodes, but I would say the WORST Seinfeld is 10x better than any other sitcom episode that has ever aired. I mean the rest are okay.. kinda geared more towards chicks, especially since the male characters always seem for feminant than what they should be. As far as Seinfeld's "smirk" goes... even I smile at jokes I make up.. If I think it's funny too, then why not laugh. If I didn't think it was funny enough to laugh at.. I wouldn't crack a one-liner at all. I think Jerry is great! the other actors are truly some of the best comedic geniouses as well.
    Point being,

    I just read Stallman's GNU Manisfesto and I realized that if linux/oss (i.e. gnu software) eventually succeeds to the extent envisioned/hoped in the manifesto, that capitalism will take a serious ideological blow.

    Under that light, the whole GNU/FSF experiment is somewhat a subversive idea. In essence, GNU in spirit, is anti-capitalist. Having observed the last 8 years of the open-source movement, and being an anarchist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_socialism I realize more fully now why I've been so enthusiastic about free software / linux ... it fits my politics so naturaly I almost didn't even notice.

    It'll be very interesting to see what goes on - it's no wonder why the free-software movement is such a threat to many people/businesses.

    When is anti-indian racism acceptable here?

    Like Zionists saying insult to Isreal is == anti-semitism, I'll bet your trying to use Political Correctness to undermine objection to "IT Outsourcing".

    Ie, when I say "India is robbing the West of work by working for peanuts, we need to stop it" you read that as racism?

    I'm guessing that you are refering to that the BNP say that aren't racist, they just don't want non-whites in the the uk, etc.

    Do you feel that my post is saying that there aren't racist posts, just that americans/english deserve the jobs more?
