Prior art is for patents. The ambiguousness (sp?) of the trademark is what will get it revoked later should they attempt to take anyone to court over it.

Well the good news is that if they ever try to sue anyone for trademark infringement, they'll definately lose the trademark. Ala AOL and their "You've Got Mail".
I wonder if they've studied the effects of using things like this first. I mean sure, it's clean energy....but damn first off it kills the view right off the bat. How about marine life, how do they take to giant red torpedo's in their environment. Does it confuse them? etc.... Is this only going to be done in places people don't frequent for surfing and swimming. There's very little information on the site, leaves ya with more questions than answers.
Oh come on, give him a break. So far the only mistake was the 2.4.17rc3/2.4.18 error. He's a human, we all make mistakes. He's doing a good job and things are stabilizing at a good rate. If you don't like it, submit a patch. Make a difference, don't talk shit. Or if you're not technically capable of that, how about writing up a Linux Kernel HOW-TO. Come up with a process, if it's good it may end up actually being used. He seems to be a guy pretty open to anything.
How in the hell does this unintelligable anonymous coward get +5? People think before you moderate! Although he does make a good point on the discount for people who find the site on their own.
Anyways not to be too off topic, it doesn't matter if Morpheus doesn't run on Linux or not, the original software is Gnucleus and that runs fine on Linux. Hell Morpheus src code is available on their site, you can modify it to run on Linux if ya like (unless they left enough of Gnucleus intact that a port is just a recompile away.)
I believe he was referring to a "Complete" redhat install, nothing to do with the kernel. I personally hand pick every last package I want installed on any Linux box I set up and would too hate having every package RedHat puts on their cd's.

I like the fact that most people died in this movie. They introduced quite a few people in this movie, and I thought it was going to be a crap version where everyone lives in the end. In the end I was very pleased to see that only 1 really survived. I mean she was afer all the star, can't blame them for that.
Yeah, that's all fine and dandy, in fact some might even say you're making sense. But gotta remember, they are going to want to generate revenue. This means ads and/or subscription fees. That's why they want you to go through them.
Hey it could have been worse, they could have contributed to the main project!
We gotta be careful what we wish for. Microsoft using open source with a BSD-style or X11-style licenses is really a godsend, imagine Microsoft code in the Linux kernel...
And Windriver or whoever controlled BSDI at the time made some serious cash in that deal. They got paid to make the tcp/ip stack work well in 2000/XP and they've done a good job of it.
I just wonder if Microsoft was able to taint some of the BSD coders by allowing them to view their code. I'm sure integrating something like a TCP/IP stack required access to some 2000/XP src code. Anyone know?
Or pehaps they are doing something a little more repsonsible like not allowing their users to connect to outside open relays. This allows them to stop spammers on the fly or at least make their network a little less attractive to spammers. I personally think that's a good thing.
I'd be pissed if their SMTP server, however, only allowed e-mail to be sent from the ATTBI.COM domain and I wasn't able to connect to outside SMTP servers, however that is not the case. In fact in my area I can both connect to outside mail servers and recieve connections on port 25. I'm just trying to dispell yet another conspiracy theory.
Also what disk space is used to send an e-mail. Just the queue, and that empties itself after the message is delivered.
He said they are blocking port 25 & 80, incoming. Connections with the destination of port 80 or port 25 to his IP are not allowed. Not outgoing. Connections from his IP with the destination to port 80 or 25.
I don't know about him, but I just checked and my IP was able to respond to both and I am on ATTBI. The only blocked port for me is Netbios, incoming port 136-139.
The original poster was talking about how the actors should be asian, not American. He wasn't really talking about the characters, as much as the actors that will be chosen for the roles of Goku and whta not. I was simply pointing out that in Street Fighter the starring role was played by someone from Belgium, regardless of the fact that the character he played was American.
SlashDot moderators these days are not doing their job. This is as much flamebait as the ones about how IIS is better than apache because of the gui administration, yet this one gets marked up rather than down. I wish these slashdot moderators learn that just because you don't agree with someones viewpoint, it doesn't mean that they need to be marked down or because you agree with the viewpoint that you should mark up.

These experiments don't work quite the same with those things they call Marshmallows in Lucky Charms....what's up with that????
Does this mean Santa Claus has to move?

I got an idea, how about we start a couple of branches and call em....I dunno say NetLinux, OpenLinux and FreeLinux to compete with Linux?
ROFL! Thanks, I missed that. Oh well, at least I made some sense, more so than that joker I replied to.

or fork off the last version before the GPL, that would be hilarious....

No, Microsoft sucks because they've been on an anti-opensource crusade and are using open source in all their products. It's the hippocricy(sp?).
And Windriver or whoever controlled BSDI at the time made some serious cash in that deal. They got paid to make the tcp/ip stack work well in 2000/XP and they've done a good job of it.

I didn't realize Jean Claude Van Damme was American...the accent always through me off.

wasn't intellimirror yanked from W2K because Micros~1 couldn't get it to work properly under current time constraints or something?
They dislike the commercialization of Linux.com, but do want Linux (the OS) to be accepted commercially.
