The last thing these people need to hear are the psychotic ramblings of someone like RMS. Be polite and to the point, don't yell and scream about freedom and the GPL blah blah or you'll be passed off as a nutcase and lose for sure. Got it?
More like no thank you. God when someone doesn't buy MS you act like its a huge act of defiance. Grow the fuck up will you? I give this thing about 18 months before it collapses.
These people think of their computers as a tool just to get work done and don't care what operating system it runs? You make linux out to be some fanatical cult thats the best thing in the world and all other OS's are garbage. Nice freedom of choice there, huh? Again, people don't care about such trivial things.
Don't just say no don't touch it. Explain to them it could blow their head off if they don't handle it properly. My parents did that with me and somehow I resisted the urge to play with a.357 in their closet. Teach them to respect guns and not fear them. That same logic goes for anything dangerous; animals, power tools, weapons, fireworks, you name it. Respect, not fear.
He pockets a BILLION dollars in aide money to his many bank accounts and then tells his people they are poor because of the evil west. Since you seem to be in touch with all these extremists please enlighten us why you find joy in having your children exploding in an attempt to hurt others? Notice its nobody middle aged or even old, just young kids that have been tought all their lives to hate the US. Now thats fucked up, using your children as ammunition to fight your war.
I hate to suggest this but 99% of all spam would stop is every ISP just blocked all outgoing traffic on port 25. Of course people will bitch about running their own servers blah blah but how many companies allow that? A few DSL providers and thats about all. Now some people could setup rogue servers to use a different port but most spammers aren't that smart.
Even though the RIAA takes a good chunk of the money, SOME of it does trickle down to the bands. No crime is victimless. I think you just discovered free thinking but got it all wrong.
Too bad he came to this country. He could have stayed in russia and nothing would have ever happened. To me it seems like he thought of himself as a martyr, coming to this country to give a speech about his program blah blah. Guess he forgot what went into being a martyr.
Just what I want, a shitty encoder for the worlds shittiest piece of software on windows. Tons of spyware and hidden services that ask you if you want to disable it 2 times. Its damn near impossible to find the freeware player link on their site. It took a google search to locate it. I avoid their horrible software and choose windows media or even quicktime (nagware) whenever possible.
99.9999% of the people don't know what the DMCA is much less digital rights management or copyright issues. In fact that post was just a troll showing that everywhere (even in geek land) the majority aren't always right. Chalk it up to mods being fucktards as usual.
Yeah a HUD will work great when driving. Trying to read an email and drive 65mph at the same time? People can barely drive without distractions as it is, much less talk on a phone.
If you criticize anything about RMS here the linux zealots who believe its the end all/be all OS will get mad and mod you down. His dogma is no more real or original than the guy at the supermarket who talks to himself while stacking the oranges.
Theres roughly a 0.00003% chance of me getting into a taxi in finland and the driver playing a cd of his own band. Get real. You have a better chance of winning the powerball lottery. This is nothing more than a socialist government wanting a cut of something.
Talk to the right people and you'll find a beta of win2k server for the alpha cpu. At the time neither intel or AMD had a ready for prime time cpu and MS needed to keep a working 64 bit codebase.
Ok you claim this hot coffee burned your crotch?
Yes
What temperature is coffee served at, hot or cold?
Hot
Do hot things burn you?
Yes
Whats the problem then? You knowingly put something capable of burning you on your lap and it of course spilled while driving? What did you expect? Furthermore I am fining you $1000 for being a total dumbass and wasting the valuable time of this court and for all court costs. Case dismissed *Bang*
Do you really think that out of 250 million people the feds will care that you took $90 out of the ATM or rented Ishtar? Get real. When they see some guy buying 5 tons of ammonium nitrate and a tanker of diesel then a red flag pops up. By the way I voted those republicans into office. You're going to lead one hell of a life without a checkbook or cellphone. Is using a land line phone any more secure? Didn't think so.
But at the core it won't resemble anything you've seen. They use linux has a base and design it exactly to their needs. It won't be of much use to about 99.95% of the linux user base. The only reason they chose linux is because its already established and porting over IRIX would mean a near total rewrite. BTW they also own the original UNIX trademark so you can legally call IRIX "UNIX".

Waiting for your reply.
How could you even be in that same room and not feel like a total douchebag? I mean get a life for chrissakes.

There seems to be a rather large number of pissed off customers.
Running tcpdump on a cable modem will just show your own traffic and the normal ARP and dhcp noise.

Under the DMCA just creating the tool is illegal. It doesn't matter if everyone or no one uses it.

adjust your hosts file accordingly and use your own mail server. Or if the address/IP is hardcoded in you may have a big hex editing job.
Compare the goals of the green party to the socialist party and they're basically the same thing.

Hmmm almost $2k for this box. I'd suspect you could never make up cost/power saving ratio but hey I do like to have different architectures available.

The case would have went something like this:
Ok you claim this hot coffee burned your crotch?
Yes
What temperature is coffee served at, hot or cold?
Hot
Do hot things burn you?
Yes
Whats the problem then? You knowingly put something capable of burning you on your lap and it of course spilled while driving? What did you expect? Furthermore I am fining you $1000 for being a total dumbass and wasting the valuable time of this court and for all court costs. Case dismissed *Bang*
See how easy that was?
