What of the opposite: the game is free (at least like in beer) and the programmers make money on the engine?
Can this work? Maybe with a double license policy. You release all your source code under the GPL or a NPL-like license and under a non-free license. if somebody want to do a free game with your engine he an but if he wnat to do a proprietary game then he must agree to the terms of the proprietary license?
Don't know if this work but this is worth thinking about I think.
It's not FUD because it already happened. When Microsoft needed a TCP/IP stack quickly because Netscape was fucking them on the Internet they took *BSD TCP/IP stack. This probably wasn't just a cut&paste (needed some reenginering) but this wasn't developpng their own stack.
But this don't seem to happen with IPv6 (they are developping their own stack).
BTW, I know that linux support IPv6 but how god is the implementation?
Try to come from behind her and take her boobs in your hands. GZZZZzzefse. AAAAAAAArgh. Sorry sweetheart i didn't knew you wanted to do that, are you ok?;)
Why the hell want you to give back France to Romans? They were invaders. give it back to Gaulois (don't know how you call that)...oups their descendant already own France (with a lot of mixing from other populations).
Due to a reaction to the monopoly of right-handed people more and more poeple are being converted to the fat, slow and unstable right-handed system to the fast little left-handed system.
Given a study made by IDC the left-handed market should go more rapidly than any other handed community combined for the next three years. ;)
Ok, this is just kidding. in love to read books in English and see movies in English, but I love being French for all the stuff we have got too (this would probably be valid for quite any other country). Have you ever heard about "Le diner de con". It's a French movie that will have an Amreican remake called the dinner's game, and this is a GREAT movie. Unfortunately the American have not the background (or the wit?) to understand this kind of humor. You're missing something but we WE have the better American culture, so we win on both levels;)
Well, the way Austria was annexed looks like the way Hitler had the power. Do you believe he was elected by the german people? Nope, he never was elected president of Germany.
This is not because other country didn't react at the Munich coonference that the German invasion isn't one any more. Czech wasn't their property and they had no power to give it. This is like, if we were in a parralel world were the DesertStrom operation never happened ion 1990 and we let Hussein have th eKoweit, this is like to say that Hussein didn't invade the Koweit because we give it to him. Bullshit. You can say what you want but Hitler definitely invaded the Czech republic.
What we European did at the Munich conference was to lick Hitler's butt. i'm not proud of it but I hope we won't forget it when some people try to do the same thing (Milosevic anyone?).
We are the champions, we are the champions, we are the champions of the world.
Sorry, couldn't resist;)
i'm not fond of football (soccer for those stupid americans that play FOOTball with their hands) but i'm in the UK and I like to tease English with this;) You can call it vantardise if you want, for me this is just mocking them;)
And we will explode your yanke's shithead with our bollocks if you continue to seek us with your hormonal beef, your slaverist banana filled with fungicides, bithead;-P
Ok, it's not exactly a comparison but this is an analyse of OSS (for the part 1) and of Linux (for the part 2) from a Microsoft employee with sidenotes from ESR, and therefore can't be accused of pro-Linux.
it's a little bit long but worth the read (check www.opensource.org/halloween).
They may control what is said in ACADEMIC French but not what is used in day to day French. Day-to-day French is as Open Source as English...but we can accumulate the advantages of both development models;)
Hahaha, sorry but Americans didn't do it because of Auchwitz, they weren't even able to imagine that human being could do such horror, you disocvered it after coming in Germany so don't try to use it as an excuse (BTW the bombing were justified I think, but NOT by what they did at Auchwitz because this wasn't known).
The Americans were so unable to imagine Auchwitz that they censored the excellent Charlie Chaplin movie "The dictator". Charlot got it right YEARS before the war and you told him tpo shut up.
What?? You don't want to blame the German (in fact the Nazis) to try to achieve world domination (or at least Europe domination) and invading other countrey (first austria, then Tchequie, then Poland...) but you want to laugh at those that tried to fight it (ok, there was also those fucking collabos)? You really are an asshole.
Without the UK standing in front of Hitler American would never have been able to go to war in Europe, but without the French resistance you would have had a really hard time to do the D-Day as well. I understand that you are angry against the French that gave your father but not all French were collabos, a lot of them were resisting either passively (by not doing things or helping the resistance) or actively.
I agree that calling a CD-ROM Cederom (with the accent that i don't have on this qwerty keyboard) is totally moronic but you English-speaking people don't do better and transform a lot of words to your own use. What is a mutton (mouton), it's a sheep that is cooked, a beef (boeuf)? A bull htat have been castrated (at least that is the definition of boeuf). Where does to flirt come from? You got it: fleurter (that is to have relation with a girl but conserving is "fleur"(virginity)). And don't mix a population with it's government, i can't bear Saddam Hussein but I have nothing against Irakians, Hitler was a motherfucker but I met a lot of cool Germans....
Do you remember when everybody said that Clinton was attacking Saddam Hussein because of the problems he had with Miss Lewinsky?
In fact the daylight saving was imagined by Valerie Giscard Destaing (the French president at the time) to deturn the public from others things (don't remember what it was). It's like when you say "Oh look, there is..." just to detrun somebody's look in order to steal him something in is plate.
that was clever to talk about it, what was totally and utterly dumb was to DO it. He should have stop before doing it.
USA is in NORTH America cretin (if you don't know this word take a good French->Englich dictionnary). But Canada is in north America too. We usually refer to US residents as Americans because they choose a silly name for they country. Do you want us to call you "united statians", this would be more accurate than American (name that is deserved to every person from the NORTH SOUTH or CENTRAL America).
"You think anyone but Nazi war criminals would immigrate to your pathetic country? When people came to America they came to the good ol' USA baby." Do you forget about the bunch of scientists that made the V2 for Hitler? Didn't they help you to improve you space technology? Weren't they Nazi scientists?
I think that Cokes bubble have severly damaged your brain
I'll always be ok to make fun of ANY country/people/community as long as it is done for the fun and not to hurt people (in their mind). It's even ok to make fun of French (I'm one), but don't forget that we may also make fun of you (I'm assuming you're American here).
"All REAL Americans are": Are you an Amerindian? No??? Then you are not a real American, you are just an invader that stole a country to its inhabitants.
Furthermore, the non white American people were generally not guest, have you forgotten the history about slavery (ok, france didn't do things better). They were not guest I think.
/flame on
Oh you may talk about all the immigration maybe?? You can say thanks to the stupidity of foreign country (France included) that train people in their school but don't know what to do with them, which lead them to go in America. Without them you probably wouldn't be the economical power you are.
D'autant plus que cela mene la plupart des etrangers a confondre les Francais avec les Parisiens, qui sont souvent vus comme ventards et pretentieux (ce qui n'est pas le cas de tous les pParisiens non plus heureusement) par les Francais de la province.
He les Americains, vous voulez qu'on vous compare tous aux habitants de New York/Washington/LA/...? Non! Il y a de grandes differences entre la cote est et la cote ouest n'est-ce pas? En France aussi.
Translation: And this also lead strangers to assimilate French with Parisians, which are often viewed like having big egos and pretentious (but this isnot the case of all Parisians hopefully) by French not living in Paris.
Hey, you Americans, do you want to be all compared to New York/Washington/LA/... inhabitants? No! there are big differences between the East coast and the West coast isn't it? In France this is the case too.
In every system you have to put your trust somewhere (or to recode all in hex like the precedent poster did). In this case I would rather put my trust in RMS and the FSF than in any closed source software.
Of course you can do what you did (and this already have been done) but you can do a program that check for this kind of backdoor too I think. or you can compile the things in assembly language and then verify that their is no back door before feeding it to the assembler (don't know if this is the correct English word). Of course this can be the assembler that implement the back door...or this can be the linker that add the back door at loading time.....
I would rather trust MS programmer's, they have a lot of good programmers, what i wouldn't trust is their high management.
But in the case of crypto this is not only the management that is bad, but the state too. They must do edulcored versions of the encryptions algorithms to export their products.

Linux is GPL'd, and if they keep everything open source then you can get the source and compile it youself.
But if you are paranoid to this point you can do your own secure distro
