    Hitler's solution to hyperinflation was the hyperdeflation of German youth at the front lines. Excellent economists, both of you. Now do fuck off and die.

    Look, we dont need for you to trot out the tired, untrue cliches. All we need is for people to actually look at the chart and to draw their own conclusions.

    It doesnt matter that Linux isnt COMMERCIAL. FreeBSD isnt commercial either and it's count is even lower than every COMMERCIAL unix on that chart.

    MS has the highest bug count on that chart bar none.

    End of fucking story. Argue FUD with facts, not mythology.

    It indicates plenty. Unfortunately, if you actually take a look at the chart, it doesnt look anything like the chart the well known alcoholic and cocaine binger Moody was looking at.

    I'll see your FUD and raise you 2 FUDs. Read 'em and weep, Moody, you ignorant shill.

  4. Re:More bugs on Fred Moody Says Linux Worst Operating System Ever · · Score: 5

    No there are not more bugs. There are LESS bugs.

    Look at the chart for your self. I have no idea where Moody is drawing his figures from but it certainly is not the chart which shows Windows to be head and shoulders above everyone else's bug count. I would have expected it to do a lot better given the inavailability of their source code.

  5. Re:Geek stereotyping? on Ask Robert X. Cringely · · Score: 1
    You really are a karma whore, arent you? What do you expect Cringely's thoughts on stereotyping to be? And maybe he has submitted his own questions. Even if he hasnt, why should yours be above criticism?

    Cringely has written many columns, about many things and the best you can do is some self-serving solicitation about his thoughts on stereotyping!?

    Here's his fucking answer:

    In my experience interviewing the movers and the shakers of silicon valley, the geek stereotype is sometimes true and sometimes not. Some of them are gay and some of them are gods gift to women; some of them swing their legs under the table and some of them do not. Some of them are nice and some of them are mean.

    None of them have ever been karma whores.

    Anyway, the point is not how lame your question is, the point is that its moderation threatens to squeeze out better questions, for example those that appear near the end of this thread.

    Do you feel that it's really accurate/justified to portray Australia as populated by crackers, or is it just a stereotype that's sometimes true and sometimes not?

    Correct! Sell the bill to a collection agency for a penny to every dollar. Spammers are pretty bad but the dobermen that work at collection agencies are even worse. No rest for the wicked, I guess.

    SCourced? I know what you mean but Linux is already an open scourge.
