    No, he couldn't write his own kernel (now known as the still-incomplete HURD), so he had to go steal Linux and build his so-called Gnu's Not Unix (or GNU) system around that instead.

    Major developer my ass.

  4. ELF/ALF are too "terrorists" on Anti-Civil Liberties Legislation Progresses · · Score: 1

    Remember, corporations are legally people too, and destruction of corporate property is just as much of a crime as destruction of private property.

    So these people should be punished, "eco-terrorists' or not.

    Make my entire desk the screen, and let me write on virtual paper with a digital pen, and let the computer do my typesetting for me. Now that's what I'm talking about.

    *cough*

    That's the beauty of BSD licensing. Anybody in the world can pick up the source and continue the project on their own terms.

    it might not be called FreeBSD 5.0 or be open-source, but hey.
    Screw Microsoft Linux, I want Microsoft BSD!

    Damn striaght. The BSD license is just like the standard operating procedure for text. If you use something, give the originators credit. Is that too much to ask?

  20. Re:Handing them a victory on Civil Liberties And The New Reality · · Score: 1

    Too bad Bruce Bartlett has it wrong.

    For a while, the Muslims had the lead in business. However, they were hurt by their absolute prohibition on interest, which kind of made investment difficult.

    It was the Italians who developed banking at the end of the Middle Ages. Theoretically Christianity prohibited interest as well, but Italian merchants found plenty of ways around that, and the rest is history.

    Don't get me wrong -- Islam, unlike Christianity, does honor the rich. However, I believe their strict prohibition on interest is a major problem when it comes to really being pro-business.
