  1. Welcome to the world son.. on MySQL Released Under The GPL · · Score: 1

    Do you think that the internet is run by geeks who can run trans-continental fiber connections? Nope, the internet is growing because companies are pumping money into it. Our world is run on money, if you think that VA is the only entity which has alterior, money driven motives, then you have another thing coming.

  2. Hilarious. on MySQL Released Under The GPL · · Score: 1

    Microsoft software has enough problems when it is being fully pushed by Microsoft. At my place of work we happen to use a product that was based on that piece of crap called MSDE, and it absolutely terrible. FYI, MSDE was abandoned (hence why it is free) my M$ for MS SQL.

    I strongly suggest that no-one use MSDE for anything except a doorstop.

  3. MS SQL 7.0 on MySQL Released Under The GPL · · Score: 1

    Plenty of e-commerce sites are coaxed into using this alpha quality software.

  4. Re:Oh, great. on Oil Slick Threatens African Penguins · · Score: 1

    I assure you that I (Signal 11) will never make another "lame ass joke".

  5. WP 2000 + FreeBSD (slightly off-topic) on FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE Now Available · · Score: 1

    It's a shame that this has to be run using two compatibility layers (WINE + linux emulation). I don't know that it matters that much, but it would be possible to run WP 2000 with a natively compiled WINE (this could also apply to all other BSD's and Solaris x86).

    I wonder how hard it would be.

  6. Correction. on FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE Now Available · · Score: 1

    5.x is the -CURRENT version.

    4 is the current -STABLE version.

    3.5 is the last release in the 3.x series. (which like 2.x maintains a -STABLE branch)

  7. Re:ISO also available on FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE Now Available · · Score: 2
    WARNING !!!!

    openbsd.org is owned by domain stealer Theo de Raadt (he stole theos.com), I would not be surprised if he backdoored OpenBSD.

    (Read the information regarding the conflict before making accusations.)

  8. It's legal. on FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE Now Available · · Score: 1

    Theo de Raadt copyrighted the Official OpenBSD CD layout. There is nothing illegal about what they are doing, in distributing an iso based on an unofficial cd layout.

  9. Ports are NOT tested! on FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE Now Available · · Score: 1
    The ports & packages collection does NOT go through the thorough security audit that OpenBSD follows. Although we strive to keep the quality of the packages collection high, we just do not have enough human resources to ensure the same level of robustness and security. -- www.openbsd.org

    Only packages that are in the default install are subjected to OpenBSD's auditing. Everything you just said sounds like paraphrased material that you read on slashdot.

  10. Why the fuck is this flamebait? on GPL To Be Tested In Court? · · Score: 1

    The poster (warmi) makes a very valid point, that RMS claims that the GPL is Free Software, and Open Source, but many of us disagree with this, and would rather use a truly free license such as the BSD license. It's moronic moderators like this that need their moderation privilidges revoked.

  11. W3C standards are to be taken seriously. on Gnome On Your PDA? · · Score: 1

    Of course you could make a version of slashdot that was both standards compliant and rendered nicely on most browsers. Browser detection is not against W3C standards. Quit sucking up to slashdot.

  12. Why don't you do it for YOPY? on Gnome On Your PDA? · · Score: 1

    The development environment for YOPY is 100% open. All software will be GPL, and you will be able to flash your own bios.
