    I searched for goatsex... clicked through something, and came upon:

    Screw the poorer nations. They are poor because they lack motivation and/or intelligence. Let them be, leave them to their gruel, flies, and drought. God is punishing them for their misdeeds.

    The UN needs to relax. It is not, nor should it ever be a government. The UN is a forum for international discussion, nothing more.

    A day will come soon when our military will refuse to fight under the UN banner. Bill Clinton is gone, and his lending of the US forces to the UN is over.

    Well, I was thinking particularly of several people I know of, who work for still-in-business "dot com" types of businesses.

    #define HUMOR
    In my years of experience in Sili Valley, you get to know the stereotypes of who runs what. Linux zealots are typically younger, with less experience; Solaris fans are older; AIX freaks are semi-fascist; and HPUX admins are just lazy. BSD folks are my favorites... BSD sysadmins have girlfriends, linux admins have spare parts & "geek code". BSD folks hang out, drink beer, and have a good time. Linux geeks have "install parties"
    #undefine HUMOR

    Face it, Exchange is a very well designed and packaged tool. Linux has NOTHING that can compare. On the other hand, Apache on NT sucks... but in reality, that's Apache's fault, for not being multithreaded. It's all about the benj^H^H^Hest tool for the job...

    I think that you're probably pretty close with #2 and #3... Cheap beer, if not Free beer.

  25. Re:It's an email virus! on Looking At The New Linux Trojan · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I find your arguement rather enlightening.

    You are claiming that just because someone runs a particular OS, they are either of higher or lower intellectual potential.

    Have you not ever heard of "Best tool for the job"?

    Granted, I think we can all admit that a Viper GTS-R is an incredible car, but using it to pick up groceries is rather... dumb.

    ...the funny thing is that I know many people who admin NT and/or Linux... the funny part is that the NT people know EXACTLY why they run NT. The majority of the Linux admins do it either because Linux == Free Beer or because "they think it's cool to run a server".

    I think if you take a realistic look around, you will actually be surprised...

    ...and OpenBSD is my tool of choice.
