NeroLinux vs. K3b

FUD, of course it works without SCSI emulation. I would say right now is already a requirement.

Off-topic in the Nero/k3b on GNU/Linux issue. You cannot have k3b in Windows, neither kd3, or amarok, lot of software. So, I don't understant you point.
1. Practical use: software, manuals. They are needed to run your computer, to allow you to write your documentation, to generate your data. You can qualify them objectively: it's OK, it's better, it's wrong. Software is indeed special: is matematical model, but executable. See FSF and OSI for licenses.
2. Non-practical use, or art: they don't have practical use, they are not needed to run you computer, they just can be enjoined "as is" and perhaps modified to create derivative art. Is American folk better than Celtic music? You cannot tell it objectively. See CreativeCommons for licenses.
Read RMS or FSF articles, there is no cinism, no contradiction, just your ignorance.

Shit. RMS and FSF got only few hours left.

Lol, lol, freaking lol, funny, moderate my parent up: +1000 Funny.
I thought, because everyone says it, that Microsoft was innovating and FLOSS just following up.
Now I'm confused, this cannot be true. Pure Slashdot FUD.

It never occurs in nuclear plants.
This wouldn't happen if USA citizens have the freedom to carry guns.

It's done. Ask your politicians, especially those in Dublin.
No only French, catalan also have it (and potuguese...) where it is called "C tancada", in Spanish c-cedilla.

What is an "Atari"? Who is that Mario and his brothers? Tell me please.
Few photos of Lessig (2) and J. P. Barlow --mentioned in the article-- in Porto Alegre.
An who do you think are more important? Users (vast majority) or developers?
If fact GPL (and similar) leverages users to the developer's level.
BSD type licenses _empowers_ developers, free o propietary ones.

So you think he is __obligated__ to give you a speech even if you association does not mention what he is promoting?
So, come to my university and give me a speech about GNU project and free as in speech software. You are now obligated, maniac zealot.
> Java code, in itself, is not bad
You see...
So, you think proprietary code is OK and nice, and at the same time think Stallman is obligated to satisfy your desires?
Crazy unbalanced moronic people.
Navigator my friend, much better.

k3b also supports packet-writing.
Insightful this piece of shit?
> If you choose to distribute BSD licensed code, your stuff doesn't become less free because you chose to allow those distribution terms.
We are talking about derivative work.

FUD. GPL does _not_ impose _any_ restriction on how you can use the software.
> BTW, care to explain how MS locks me in by using BSD code that I can go and pick up just about anywhere else.
Yoy cannout pick any BSD derivative code if MS does not want to realease under a free license. BSD allow them no to do it.

OOo ugly in Linux?
It's as "ugly" as in windows. And much faster.
that does not understand the following differences:
- Free vs. Proprietary
- Open vs. Closed
- Community based vs. suck from whole world
FSF differentiates clearly among:
1. Practical use: software, manuals. They are needed to run your computer, to allow you to write your documentation, to generate your data. You can qualify them objectively: it's OK, it's better, it's wrong. Software is indeed special: is matematical model, but executable. See FSF and OSI for licenses.
2. Non-practical use, or art: they don't have practical use, they are not needed to run you computer, they just can be enjoined "as is" and perhaps modified to create derivative art. Is American folk better than Celtic music? You cannot tell it objectively. See CreativeCommons for licenses.
