  9. Copyright violation! on Linux for Dummies, 5th Edition · · Score: 5, Funny

    One of the words in the title is a trademark of Darl McBride. No, not the "Linux"...

  10. VIA BIOS problems on Hardware Selection for AMD64 + Linux? · · Score: 3, Informative

    I'm using a VIA-based Gigabyte m/b and basically everything works fine (SATA, sound), but the famous AMD HALT bug is still not fixed in the latest BIOS, so the kernel is running in polling mode. It means that the CPU cannot switch to sleep mode when there's nothing to do. *Very* irritating. BIOS coders are eventually more evil than trade mark/IP lawyers.

    Jesus, even my ScanJet is vulnerable?

  13. Separated at birth on Oracle Embraces Mozilla · · Score: 2, Funny

    > Oracle embraces Mozilla
    Mozilla was a natural choice for Oracle, as both of them are ruthless, flesh-eating predators, who just trample over the weak and possess a tiny brain.

    > prevent malware from reaching the network
    As an alternative solution, you can hire a big, fat, bald guy, whose job is to push the Microsoft and Oracle salesmen down the stairs.

  24. Companies! on Worst Linux Annoyances? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The most annoying problems are caused by those companies and organizations that make it impossible to use GPL software comfortably, like DVD encryption promoters, MPEG4 and MP3 copyright holders, braindead scanner/winmodem manufacturers, "Buy it now" button patent holders and of course industry behemoths like Microsoft and Adobe.
