Open Source In the National Interest

munchola writes "A new report from the Department of Defense's Advanced Systems and Concepts Office recommends that the DoD move to adopt open source software and methodologies as well as open standards in order to make the most efficient use of internal resources. According to CBR, the report states that a move to 'Open Technology Development' is not only in the U.S. national interest, but in the interests of U.S. national security. OTD incorporates open source methodologies and open standards, but also takes into account the fact that the DoD has systems that it would rather keep secret."

Hello, Canadian Arseholes. I'm here at Eglinton park in Toronto and I just wanted you Canadians to know that it is a shithole. Its funny how Canadians in their smug self satisfaction like to believe they are somehow magically better than everyone else though they have contributed absolutely nothing to the collective progression of mankind. Certainly not a fraction of that graciously bestowed by your illustrious neighbours to the south.

I can only hope that my home country of England could someday bask in the glow and radiance of the glorious United States of America. It warms my Gaelic heart just thinking about it. Canadians, please fuck off and don't even think about coming between us and the wondrous Americans. Thank you. Seriously, fuck off and die. And that includes you Shania Twat.
