I have no previous knowledge of this guy however he looks like an emotional asshole who should be on daily wtf, not maintaining an important piece of software.
It's not about reviewing the submissions for "the best".
It's about reviewing the submissions and removing the junk like "moot for president" and "build a perpetual motion machine". They have to make sure all the ideas being put up for voting by public are actually worthwhile endeavours.
As soon as I confirmed my account was in good standing, I closed it. Buncha tools.
As you should have. A good company would have given you credit or something free, not just a shitty apology for wasting your time and calling you a criminal.
The vast majority of postal employees would never even consider stealing mail of any kind, ever.
I have a friend who works for Royal Mail, (postal service in the UK) who says stealing DVDs is the norm. Anything from Amazon or Play for example in a DVD sized package and it's gone.
I can make a product that if any other company tries to improve they have to pay me for copyright
Wrong. You don't have to pay anyone if you already got the code freely under the GPL terms.
OR release all their changes for free.
Wrong. You have to make the changes available to whoever gets your derived product. That means only your customers so you're not releasing anything for free. You'd be giving it to whoever bought your product.
Unless "downloaded an ISO" is Ubuntu 9.04 you really don't have a point, and arguing over what YOU think is better is pointless too as it's subjective.
I have two machines with Hardy on. In my laptop (intel) the sound works fine, I can plugin my wireless USB headphones and it works no problems. However now I've lost the speaker audio on it and it won't come back. You have to fiddle with the different settings and I can't get it working.
On my second machine (AMD) I've tried everything and can not get the USB headphones working at all. I've fiddled with all the settings including Pulse audio to the point where I have given up. Ubuntu really needs to make audio a MUCH better and easier experience because it's one of the things which drives me insane.
Sorry missed the first link, I think slashdot cut it out and I wasn't paying attention. I looked at the bug report and it is getting retarded. I wish they'd update freeimage myself but then i've spotted tons of things that are old in Ubuntu and never get updated, ever.

Try complaining on launchpad, slashdot isn't the best place to be filing bug reports.
looks like reality is a bit different than the fantasy world you fanboys live in.
Indeed it is. Us normal people RTFA, whereas raging fanboys like yourself spurt out nonsensical dribble. You don't even need to read the article in this instance, the hundreds of comments above yours detailing how this really has nothing to do with Linux should have done.
Too bad you let your fanboism get the best of you though.
Slashdot Mirror
That's why I stick to the LTS releases.
Maybe but look at this bug.

It's not about finding the best, it's about filtering the worse so the best can be put up for voting on.
It's not about reviewing the submissions for "the best".

You don't win the 10 million, they use your idea and invest 10 million in it.
Would you really call those specs "entry level", as in "the lowest specs available"?
I fail to see how the GP is a troll when he's pointing out that Firefox addons conflict with the parent's "Opera rocks your fucking socks" statement.
In fact the beta wasn't mentioned at all.
You're making the assumption that everyone lives in the US with its messed up patent system. For some of us software patents aren't an issue at all.
He's talking about the manufacturers producing fixes, not the individual hospitals.
It is time to get some new glasses.
Like what? Minix started before Linux and so far there's been nothing. There's more improvement around HURD (which is in Debian) then there is Minix.
All the EU have done is waste their citizen's money.
Well you could have fooled me with Tanenbaum's constant aruging with Linus and the numerous times he's said his OS is better then Linux.
Except that's not true. Even if you're giving it away via Bit Torrent it's still going to cost you in bandwidth.
That's not entertaining at all. I propose THUNDER DOME!

I think it's you that doesn't understand ..

1) RTFA ...
2)
3) Stop posting stupid remarks that are answered in the first paragraph of the article.

To confirm, it does have "ubuntu" in the user agent for firefox.

There's no such thing are non-GMO. Unless you're a creationist that doesn't believe in DNA and evolution don't spout such nonsense.
