What little of his views came to light showed that he is just trying to reap (or is it rape) profits off the backs of the open source community
How can one sentence be so oxymoronic ? Where are all these profits I keep hearing about ? Cant you read Cleetus ? Its been pointed out to you at length. Its obvious Linux doesnt put food on your table or pay your mortage to emote such nonsense.You wouldnt be able to afford to post such drivel here otherwise.
Will have no say in deciding whats good for the the *corporation*.
Any person worth their salt doing a risk analysis of the 'free' solution will soon figure out that anything but the 'free' solution is the path with the least exposure to risk.
That's what business customers are going to pay for. They'll demand nothing less. To get something for free in a quality-controlled environment is useless if you aren't 100% certain that it will all function as-promised.
This of course sails completely over the heads of "All corporations are evil" shower. Cue some utterly inane commentary w.r.t microsoft to complete the picture of total cluelessness.
If for example some hate filled fascist faction was posting the 'exact' same instructions to stop trainloads of 'refugees' being transported across Germany,
One would hear nothing only howls of outrage from 'Indymedia' and its camp followers about how terrible it was that the Dutch were allowing this material to be hosted.
'IndyMedia' has the dubious joy of being doubly oxymoronic in its name, Its neither 'independent', nor it is any form of meaningful 'media'. Its just an assembly line for ultra left propaganda.

One keeps hearing abouthow the Source will allegedly set you free, The real world dont work like that. If the open source coders have no interest in fixing *MY* problem, it will go unfixed.
I am sure as a card carrying socialist you are just dying to waste that money on the non productive members of society with votes purchased via the social welfare budget.
Equality of result always returns the lowest common denominator.
You lying toerag bastard! (fellow readers please forgive my tongue, but I cannot let this gobshite whitewash the documented death of millions)
The tens of millions of those who perished through starvation across the ukraine, china, and cambodia are a poignant reminder of of you inveracity.
You're just A.N Other middle class vostok in the mold of Sidney and Beatrice Webb.
Just pray you never have the misfortune to met me in person my friend. I tend to treat your kind with the exact same contempt as your ubermensch mirror images.
What REALLY pisses me off is that after 500 odd comments every else is letting this individuals hate filled spew pass as modded up comment.
ARGGHHHH!!!!! Come on asshole, tell us all about the slave owning millions of eastern europeans, Irish, Italians, Greeks, Chinese etc who came to the US and prospered post 1865.
Care to to even contemplate the size of the US economy in 1900 when compared to 1860. Or does you ultra left blinkers remove your comprehension also.
Now fsck off back to your tiny cadre meeting and plot revolution somewhere else!
Jesus H Christ in a flaming Tar Barrel! Is this what passes for economics knowledge in the US these days ? You are so completely and utterly incorrect on so many counts.
Classic regurgitated class warfare nonsense. Since when did any socialist ever care about the 'workers', other than exploiting their gullibilty to seize power ?
Socialisms very existance requires poverty. Keep 'em poor, keep 'em uneducated, and keep frightening them with some external threat. 200 million dead globally cannot be wrong.
You fscking hypocrite, until you give away all your assets and live off the average daily wage in some shithole like plains of Ougadugu. You have no right to criticise.
You're just A.N other begrudging hand wringing socialist.
Commentary from inbred socialists about the 'evils' of the capitalist system. Ohhh the iniquity of it all....
Needless to say if the US tax system didnt tax dividends twice and took a more enlightened apprach as other countries do to owning shares, MS would not be sitting on this nest egg.
is a self perpetulating haven for ambulance chasers. It encourages speculative legal actions irregardless of their merit. The litigant never has to worry about the total cost of the case.
This will not change until its reformed to follow practice of other countries based on common law.
If this was the UK/Ireland/Australia/wherever the losing c*nting spammer in this case would be left with nothing only the shirt on his back after having to pay ALL the expenses the ISP incurred w.r.t this case over the past 12 months as WELL as his own legal expenses.
In fact its doubtful it would have come to trial at all. The barrister acting on behalf of the plaintiff would have made it plain b4 hand that the action was shaky and would have painted a less than rosy picture of the likely financial outcome.
Get it into your skull crackhead, they will never release it, Least of all to freeloading GPL socialists who think its their god given right to leech other folks work for nothing.
Someone has been drinking the GPL bong water again.
Get a grip people. This so called 'product' has precisely two hopes of displacing outlook/exchange, zero and none.
Outlook (Not OE) for all its faults, works and works well for its intended purpose.
Until X11 is shitcanned and there is a single 100% consistent interface for ALL GUI applications on Linux, its going nowhere on the desktop @ those end users where it matters.
Take a look at the recent offerings from cupertino w.r.t some ideas on how to do this properly.
Wild assertions inspired from bogarding the RMS crack pipe aint gonna change this.
Its great being an ivory tower socialist when everyone else is paying your bills. You never have to live by the rules you dictate to everyone else.
If he was fscked out on his hypocritical arse and made earn a living in the real world like the rest of us. The ultra left GPL^H^H^Hnewspeak would soon change.

How utterly ignorant can one individual be I wonder.

The HARD indisputable facts are that the top 50% of earners in most western economies pay 90% of the taxes.
faux concern mixed with economic illiteracy on behalf of 'working families' doesnt change that fact one iota.
