  1. Re:Fud Factories by slickwillie · · Score: 5

    Our FUD Factory is better than your FUD Factory because:

    - Ours is Open Source FUD - anyone can add to it, yours is proprietary

    - Our FUD is POSIX compliant

    - Ours FUD Factory doesn't need to be restarted several times a day

    - We don't have a FUD monopoly and the DOJ isn't about to close it down

    - Ours is just plain cooler than yours

  2. Only anti-Linux FUD or all FUD? by Eman · · Score: 5

    It seems to me that a lot of FUD comes from the Slashdot community itself. They scream bloody murder when someone states something wrong about Linux, but they themselves say blatent wrong things about the other non-Linux software. Especially against Microsoft and Apple. If you really want to stop the FUD then I would suggest starting with the Slashdot comments (and sometimes main story post).
