World of Warcraft Duping Bug Found

Over the course of this morning several people have sent me tidbits talking about an exploit on WoW that allows duping of items. Apparently forum posts are being removed on official channels, but there are a few places where you can learn about the exploit and see screenshot evidence. In equally exciting news, my Rogue on Azjol-nerub is probably 2 hours away from 60 and since Blizzard will undoubtedly fix this bug soon, I'll have to finance my epic mount the old fashioned way!

Well based on Blizzard's past track record regarding StarCraft and WarCraft III CD key banning, I have no doubt that the smack stick is going to come down hard on these guys.

Freedom as in...

Sun: beer
Linux: stolen goods

As we all know (but many here try to ignore), it has been proven that the Linux 2.6 kernel contains up to millions of lines of code stolen from OpenServer.

Also, there is a high level of likelyhood that at least some code of Windows 2000 has found its way into the Linux 2.6 source. Especially the memory manager which magically got a significant boost of microsoft-like performance and quality.

When will the Linux crowd just stop pretending to respect other people's property and just stealing everything that they want? After all, that's what gnutella is for.

Cor, Blimey!

Did you not read my other responses to this posting? I am not even talking about statistics.

Statistically, you are more likely to be killed by a McVeigh than an Atta. That factoid is useless in evaluating either risk, or the meaning of my quoted reference.
