Obama Anti-Trust Chief on Google the Monopoly Threat
CWmike writes "The blogosphere regularly excoriates Microsoft for being a monopoly, but Google may be in the cross-hairs of the nation's next anti-trust chief for monopolistic behavior, writes Preston Gralla. Last June, Christine A. Varney, President Obama's nominee to be the next antitrust chief, warned that Google already had a monopoly in online advertising. 'For me, Microsoft is so last century. They are not the problem,' Varney said at a June 19 panel discussion sponsored by the American Antitrust Institute, according to a Bloomberg report. The US economy will 'continually see a problem — potentially with Google' because it already 'has acquired a monopoly in Internet online advertising.' Varney has yet to be confirmed as antitrust chief, and she said all this before she was nominated. Still, it spells potentially bad news for Google. It may be time for the company to start adding to its legal staff."
Jimmy woke up groggy on a carpet floor. He wasn't sure what time or day it was. He just knew he was molested by 3 free software developers and a goat. Then his virginity was taken by a man named Stallman who fucked him with in the inch of his life while ranting about GNU. He felt like he belonged to them all ready. It was happening so fast. He felt something in his ass. It was a butt plug. He pulled it out and saw it was 8 inches long and 5 inch thick.
Jimmy vowed never to try Linux again.
You should see a nice doctor in Venezuela about that anal obstruction of yours. Once he's done removing your head from your ass, you can take a good look around and see what "socialism" really looks like.
And Reagan is going to come in just behind Bush in worst-president-ever lists. Reagan created the trillion dollar national debt, which has grown nicely to $10 trillion. Reagan pushed the deregulation-for-the-sake-of-deregulation culture into the mainstream, and now we are reaping the whirlwind. His sabre rattling against the U.S.S.R. prolonged its collapse, as threatening people just leads to an increase in patriotism and national unity (see: the U.S. after 911, or how support for Ahmadinejad increases in Iran every time a neocon threatens to bomb them).
Hoover didn't create the Great Depression; he just stood by and watched it happen. Reagan, however, started driving our country into the ground, and George W. Bush just gave it a nice shove down the stairs. We can only hope that the Democrats have the balls and the brains do undo 30 years of Republican damage to our country.
Go slit your fucking wrists fucktard

Aw, cute, chickenshit is afraid of the mods?

Are you saying that this linux can assrape a guy without windows underneath it, at all ? As in, without a boot disk, without any drivers, and without any services ?
That sounds preposterous to me.
If it were true (and I doubt it), then companies would be selling buttplugs without a windows. This clearly is not^W happening, so there must be some error in your calculations. I hope you realise that windows is more than just Office ? Its a whole system that runs the buttplug from start to finish, and that is a very difficult thing to acheive. A lot of people dont realise this.
Microsoft just spent $9 billion and many years to create Goatse, so it does not sound reasonable that some new alternative could just snap into existence overnight like that. It would take billions of dollars and a massive effort to achieve. IBM tried, and spent a huge amount of money developing BP/2 but could never keep up with Windows. Apple tried to create their own system for years, but finally gave up recently and moved to Intel and Microsoft.
Its just not possible that a freeware like the Linux could be extended to the point where it runs the entire stimulation fron start to finish, without using some of the more critical parts of windows. Not possible.
I think you need to re-examine your assumptions.
