I agree that GPL needs an update, though perhaps BSD liscensing isn't the exact way to do it. More of just a change in wording to reflect the changing face of commercial software.
Here it goes... this should be a simple way to set up pirate DNS. First, have the clients programmed with a list of IPs that correspond to certain top level domains. When a domain is enter with that psotfix, the pDNS server is queried and returns an IP. Then the client references the server by that IP. Basically the same as standard DNS, but it would be distributed as the top levels would be on different computers. Everyone could own a top level domain! I think I'll put a more detailed explaination on my website. Anyone interested may e-mail me, and I will tell them when I have a workable protocal. Thanks.
Emacs. Open your emacs. For those of you who don't have emacs fsck off. Let's see, it's got all the modules i need to send e-mail, code in c(++),html,perl, and do fairly good word processing. If you need something more complicated open your star suite and use that. If that's not good enough, write your own damned program. *steps off soap box* yes i own windows. No, i don't use it. It is slow. But, it is better supported. But, linux has support of the home brewed kind, because it's ssooo easy to just write a program and run it, with little overhead or training. Get your friends, family, pets, co-workers, postmen, and butlers hooked on it like cheap crack. Thank you for your time. ==It's diet Unix.==
Perhaps you don't. In socialism, the government owns or control certain industries, and not other. Our government does control much of the commerce in the nation to some extent. Healthcare, research, transportation, logging are all examples of industries that the government dictates some form of price control or standardization. Our government is partiallly socialist, our economy mostly capitalist. Your efforts to relate an economic system to a political one shows how little grasp you have on this concept.
Some ppl out there are just plain stupid. First off, we don't need to GPL it, it's not owned(except, perhaps, by god). Secondly, we have just mapped what amino acids they genes create, and in some cases, what the results are. Thirdly, it's in binary notation!! There are two possible combinations of neucleotides in DNA. To create one particular shade of eye color for example, it would take the setting of millions of genetic 'bits'. And the genome doesn't have a key, so to say. Basically, we are in the cockpit, know where the controls are, but none of them are labeled. So, to do anything useful with this, in your basement laboratories or whatever, it would take several million years. Have fun.
Or... they could use the parental control flow control system on DVDs to display the original material if the parental controls are set high enough. Or... America could get off it's corpacracy loving, liberal, piracy fearing, socialist(democrat) ass, and let people do what they want do, under the premise that the country was founded on.

And one more note about Linux and Karma... I'll have you know I found not one lick of karma for that last post and I don't care. The more people realize that karma is an artificail standard created by the administration so that more people will side with them on issues, the better.

What was I saying about those admins?? Listen, not all of us can afford your supercompters and industrial prts and what not. And while some zealots aren't coders (the more obnious ones aren't), some are. I'd take 15000 annoying Linux zealot before I'd take one sysadmin thinking he is king of the universe because he has an industrial grade board. Big whoop. The rest of us will be busying advancing humanity. And some of the other posters say it is Linux compatible. I don't know how true it is, but I'll trust that drivers could be written for it if it isn't...
I see...this is one of those intelligence check posts...they see if you beleive it, and if you do, they disallow your IP from connecting to slashdot... If they got that to read my mind every day they'd be greping out stuff to for weeks for come just so that it would be readable and suitable for fragile minds...

I agree with the whole 'Linux isn't the do all OS', but I disagree on it not getting close. Think of it. Linux has made more progress in it's exsistance than Microsoft has, and they had the head start. Part of what makes Linux great is those zealots. Those zealots are what make it a do everything OS(or at least close). When they need something, they program it, then they share it. Which is better than I can say for some high and mighty 'my-OS-is-more-expensive/craptacular/unsupported than yours, therefore my kung foo is superior to yours' sysadmins\suitgeeks. Well that was an unintented flame-o-rama.

Another 'secure' protocal. Eventually the internet will be 100% secure and nothing but proprietary technology will be able to access it. Yay!
