When I upload my GPL code to the net I am not bound by the GPL as the copyright holder (assuming I own all the work), however others that share my software are, that doesn't specially have to be uploading software.
When you distribute it. It doesn't cover use at all.
A EULA and GPL/BSD license is completely different.
A GPL or BSD license comes into effect the minute you download the binary or code.
A EULA can only come into effect when you click I agree. Most free software projects stick the GPL or BSD in the license section of an installer however don't make the mistake of thinking the GPL or BSD is a EULA type license. Even if you click "refuse" on the installer you're still bound by the GPL or BSD licenses.
Your zealous fanaticism for open source is clearly apparent and clouding your judgement on the situation.
I find it humorous in the middle of an article about how shitty an open source driver is that you see it fit to blame nvidia for breaking a developer release of KDE. The worse part is you think it matters.
Do you get this angry when an open source driver has a bug? No.
With older NVIDIA cards, I have worse performance than on my EeePC (GMA 900).
Your old cards aren't as good as your new ones? shock! horror! Say it isn't so!
No I didn't actually, instead of tell you to read my first post i'll repost it..
Sounds like they're focusing on the benefits without realising that it's not actually helpful at all, side from the fact that the distillery would be running anyway.
Sorry I don't go for political bullshit statistics. It's not 9000 additional homes of enegry if it's a net loss. All you're doing is hiding the facts to make it sound better then it really is.
Again, like others all you're doing is wasting your time complaining when you should be offering an alternative to DRM which stops piracy.
I can't take you seriously if you're telling me to not buy a game simply because YOU don't like the fact they have DRM in it. Sorry but I play games because I like the game not because they support your cause for DRM free games.
Playing games is about being entertained, not about the feel good factor of supporting a cause. You're completely missed the point and it's obvious you're not the target audience that game publishers are aiming for.
The completed plant will use biomass cogeneration to convert draff and pot ale from the distillery into 7.2 MW of electricity â" enough to power 9,000 homes
and how much electricity does it take to power the distillery in the first place? Sounds like they're focusing on the benefits without realising that it's not actually helpful at all, side from the fact that the distillery would be running anyway.
No, the best way you can fight DRM is to come up with something better that would stop piracy to some significant degree.
I find it ridiculous that you say we should buy games not because we enjoy them but because they're DRM free. World of goo was DRM free too and it got pirated the shit out of it.
DRM does stop piracy sometimes. There's been many cases where people just bought team fortress 2 on steam for the convenience of never having to continuously patch their games to work with the pirate servers.
Most of your post is full of lies that keep getting perpetuated on slashdot.
This problem with gears of war sucks but there working on it so what's the problem exactly?
Why would we want to visit a troll site run by a spanish cheese dick? Unlike the site owner I've got better things to do with my time then waste it on trolling.

To be honest I hope we don't find anyone else..
It means the universe is ours!
There are many worlds out there however none of them have had to foresight to actually send a signal and instead continue to listen for signs of life.

I never said the GPL covered use of the software.

block further attacks obviously.
Indeed, I just tried to look at some projects and you can't. Pointless.

Yeah, lets not pick a product based on smart decisions like if it works better or not.
No, lets pick products based on their feelings towards open source. Yeah, that makes total sense..
If I had mod points you'd be getting them. Everything you said was spot on.
Since your post she's been trying out PSPP and it's useless.
Half the functions don't exist, the manual is horrible and the irc chat room has 3 people in it max at any time.
PSPP isn't in any state to be called a replacement for SPSS.

I'm just suggesting that it uses more power then it produces in the first place, thus the 9,000 homes figure isn't accurate.
No, after paying customers refuse to buy DRM encumbered products game developers give up on the PC and just make console games.
This is already happening.
You're right and they've already decided by using DRM. You're complaining about the DRM so offer an alternative or don't complain.
Why are you asking me? You're the one complaining it's not working, not me.
So you're basically using this as an issue to further your goal of free software?

You do a lot of complaining however don't offer any alternative to would be game developers. No DRM free isn't a solution.

Who said they want to censor the internet? They don't have any say in the matter.
or another way to write your post..
"haha I'm a fag taking away slashdot for thailand because I can"
Apart from the fact that you made it up and it's never been proven who killed his older brother, it could have been the bother himself that suicided.
Never attribute to malice which can be explained by stupidity.
The new prince who will be king once this one dies isn't liked much at all.
This king is pretty awesome, he holds two patents for designing a method for making clouds rain via dropping pellets out of a plane.
He'd fit right in with the slashdot crowd.
