you must really be a fat fuck! Every time I bring up weight, your insecure, moronic mind thinks of INGENIUS sayings such as:"sucked your dog's cum out of your ass".
lets see you come up with arguments backing up your claim that the GNU ISN'T more restrictive than a closed source model. (You can't!)
The conclusion is that you're going to be the first star of the next Fox reality show: When Siblings Breed
I think the reason you don't understand my reasoning, is because you are an immature,weakling 14 year old who thinks he has some kind of "power" when he posts on slashdot.
your arguments are a joke. Unlike you, I don't have to prove my intelligence.....to anyone (especially not an asshole like you). If you don't understand the GNU license, im not going to explain it to you.
sounds like insults I used in 3rd grade. (what's next, YO MAMA JOKES?) (I must have been right on the insecure part).
I haven't been arguing anything, jackass
yeah, I know, proving further what a complete fucking moron you are. For the past few posts, all you have been doing is writing shit. Claiming you know something more than me, but in reality, you are a weakling who tries to back up his intelligence with vile insults and put-downs. There's no way a company would hire you as a SysAdmin. Maybe under the Affirmative Action law or when they need to meet a quota.
then whined and made a pathetic attempt at insulting me when you discovered your limited cognitive abilities didn't extend to coming up with supporting arguments for your blatant untruths
YOU insulted ME first. After I questioned your sacred GNU license. (which I might add I could really give a FUCK about).
A UNIX sys-admin, that explains it (every Sysadmin I have ever met is insecure.....like you). I could be a SysAdmin right now (braindead work). But..I choose to run my own software company. less stress, more money.(maybe I can hire you someday, as my Bitch Monkey)
Being a fat fuck sys-admin like you must be a real attention grabber with the ladies.
You have made NO valid points toward your argument, So I am lowering myself to your moronic level.
I still don't think you have ever actually read through the GPL/GNU license.
A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members
I have already guessed your experience and grade level (I see you can't even get your opinion out without using words like fuck, or try to prove to someone that you are at a higher class level than I). It won't work in the real world. But..You still some time to learn....
So you DO want to take away my freedom of speech. Figured that.
No, but you seem to want to take away mine.
In addition (though I doubt it will get through your thick skull this time, as it hasn't this far) the goal of the FSF is not to FORCE everyone to release free software. The goal of the FSF is to CONVINCE everyone to release free software. If you're too stupid to figure out the difference between the two, please do your civic duty and euthanize yourself tonight.
you keep telling me im stupid, yet you really have nothing of importance to bring to the argument. (except for that very fact).
Well, first off you'd be wrong. Second, the word was "with", not "on". Still need to work on them reading comprehension skills, kiddo.
grammar mistakes too! wow you must be a GENIUS! An all-purpose monkey. Maybe I can hire you to clean my toilets. What piece of GNU software have you worked with?? Apache? Bind? maybe..... set up a Linux Box?
I'll complain when I damn well please. Were you planning to stop complaining about the GPL and the FSF anytime soon, you fucking hypocrite?
hypocrite? slashdot/linux zealouts bring a WHOLE new meaning to the word.
Or can't you even handle alternative viewpoints? Do you want to take away their right to state their opinions? If so, I can add evil to the list of descriptions for you, along with illiterate, brainless, closed-minded, and arrogant.
You obviously can't. (Point proven in 2 previous responses).
Im just trying to show you that there's more then the mindless dribble pouring out of slashdot in the world.
And if I create something, you'll use it under my conditions, or you won't use it. Given how incredibly loose the GPL's conditions are, you don't have a damn thing to bitch about. What gives you the right to force me to make proprietary software? Because what you're doing here to advocate proprietary software and to slam the GPL is exactly the same as what the FSF does in reverse. So you're just as bad as the FSF you despise so much.
im not forcing anything. My belief is that anyone SHOULD be able to do ANYTHING that they wish with their software. (be it copyright or GNU). the GNU is against the copyright, it's followers even believe it's their right to VIOLATE the license by "pirating" music,software,etc. But, if a company decides to use GPLd code in a closed source project, they are all over the companies ass.
Cite, please. I've never seen that word in the years I've been working with free software
Here is a link to the article.
BTW.
I seriously doubt you have ever worked on Free software.
im not against the GPL, it's anyones freedom to use it within their software. But, don't complain about closed source software. It is just as much a freedom, that many people would like to take away.
Bullshit. Microsoft products have rarely even approached the quality of their competitors. IE is one of the few counterexamples, and it still can't touch Opera. In addition, it sure as hell isn't innovative; it's just another Mosaic clone.
We see how many people are using opera HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
by creating things that were better and more innovative than anyone else. Netscape and mozilla are a GREAT example. I run Netscape, the pages are sluggish, it takes 20 seconds to load, and it crashes, constantly. This includes both windows and many distros of linux
These childish tactics will get you no-where (you are starting to remind me of a 15 year old) and they only prove my point further.
Find where the FSF has advocated making all software free by force
not the point. The FSF believes that ALL software should be GNU. Stallman even said once: "prop. and free software cannot co-exist". Also, if they think it can co-exist, then why do the zealouts here bitch so hard about microsoft and MANY other pieces of software being closed source. Closed source is the FREEDOM of the company.
if I create something, and I don't want you to see how I created it, it is my FREEDOM and RIGHT to do so.
Find one single mention of the word "gnuix" anywhere on the FSF's website.
not there, I read it in an old magazine interview with stallman from a couple years ago.
intelligent adults
who are the intelligent adults (about 45% of the highschool kids that are on this board? or you?) HAHA!
. Try putting together a coherent argument--backed up with actual facts--for a change, and you won't deserve an assholistic response
the majority of the slashdot community has as closed of a mind as the software they are against.
Even when the facts are slapping you in the face, all you see is what you would like to believe.
first and foremost, microsoft never FORCED the consumer to purcahse the windows operating system.
second, What im try to show you, is that the only way to really win is to come out with something better.
responses from slashdot are typical ofthe same people that support affirmative action and welefare in american society today.
Compared to Free Software Microsoft would probably appear to be evil even to the layman
any laymen who thinks microsoft is more evil that the FSF is blinded by false prophets, or ignorant of the fact that it is one step closer to ending capitalism on the Internet. Why can't anyone see that the GNU is more controlling then ANY other license available?
NON-GNU SOCIETY:
Software can be closed or open sourced
GNU SOCIETY
software can only be open sourced
Does ANYONE realize that the whole reason microsoft went public in the first place was so their employees could share the wealth? (They could have NEVER went public, and still sustained the money / power).
The FSF is promotes just as much GREED and POWER as microsoft has, execept instead of with money, it's with CONTROL. (did anyone realize that stallman has been trying to get the name linux change to gnuix for quite some time now?)
Now think about how much of the winXP is Linux-based
I will answer this: NONE!
Microsoft has some of the greatest programmers in the WORLD. I serously doubt they are going to use ANYTHING from the linux community. (Maybe as a joke)
what they said about OSS is mostly true (not the security risk problem). When you create a piece of software under the GNU, you really don't own it anymore.
why should it matter if microsoft is using BSD code or not?? BSD CODE IS NOT UNDER THE gnu license, and you are allowed to use it in closed source applications.
You don't see the BSD community getting in an uproar about it
here is another point. Microsoft came out with windows. Everyone (A large percentage) is using it. If someone came out with something better, and it gained massive popularity, they wouldn't have a monopoly anymore. But, there about 1% of the people bitching that are actually trying to do something about it. The people with the loudest voices, are usually the most INsecure.
Funny, i Thought the GNU license supported commercialization?!
you must really be a fat fuck! Every time I bring up weight, your insecure, moronic mind thinks of INGENIUS sayings such as:"sucked your dog's cum out of your ass".

I imagine this is what you look like
link to your picture
so are you poopdick...claiming that I don't know what im talking about.
why don't you "prove" your rebuttal, and explain why the GNU isn't as controlling as a closed source model.
your arguments are a joke. Unlike you, I don't have to prove my intelligence.....to anyone (especially not an asshole like you). If you don't understand the GNU license, im not going to explain it to you.

I still don't think you have ever actually read through the GPL/GNU license.
I would imagine the people you aksed were either:
1) linux zealouts or
2) anti-microsoft
definition of communism (www.dictionary.com):
A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members
I rest my case
that's BULLSHIT!
I have used opera, and it's not even in the same league as Internet Explorer.
Just because it's Open-Sourced, Doesn't make it better.
I have already guessed your experience and grade level (I see you can't even get your opinion out without using words like fuck, or try to prove to someone that you are at a higher class level than I). It won't work in the real world. But..You still some time to learn....

bitter comments from a bitter slashdotter
how did they do that?
by creating things that were better and more innovative than anyone else. Netscape and mozilla are a GREAT example. I run Netscape, the pages are sluggish, it takes 20 seconds to load, and it crashes, constantly. This includes both windows and many distros of linux

PLEASE do some research before posting asshole responses.
http://www.gnu.org
sorry, I dont have a whole website dedictated to such things, with 100's of zealouts bitching loudly.
I am also not spamming the messageboards with such things as: linux isn't fair, windows is better, blah,blah (insert linux zealout rant here)
how did I NOT answer the question ?
