  3. Re:Nonsense on Linux Needs Critics · · Score: 1

    Technically in the business world though, it could always be possible that although some Free program doesn't do 100% of what they want it to do, instead of paying for 2000 (or whatever) licences of a proprietary alternative, they might just employ some people to add the final features.

    This might not even be a huge issue if they are in the middle of upgrading and are having a lot of custom software written at the time anyway.

  8. Re:I've been using linux since the mid nineties. on The Secret Lives of Ubuntu and Debian Users · · Score: 1

    True, I've been using Linux only three years but I have learnt loads in that time.

    I am perfectly capable of nitpicking my own debian install if I want except whenever I try I just end up trying to make it as good as ubuntu.

    I still use most of the default things in ubuntu. The theme is great. I only recently changed the background. Haven't needed to mess with xorg.conf or fstab for at least a year and a half...

  18. Is there any point in net neutrality? on Anti-Net Neutrality Astroturfer Exposed · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure on this myself, but I've seen a compelling argument against net neutrality.

    If we don't enforce net neutrality, the businesses will try to censor the net to their own needs.

    BUT if we get the government to enforce net neutrality then they have their foot in the door to start censoring the net themselves.

    Either way we lose, just at the moment it looks like it would take longer for it to happen without government intervention because as soon as they pass the first legislature then it starts to happen, whereas we have to wait for it to happen with ISP's.
