Now I know you are talking out of your ass. The water bill where I live is over $25.00 per month and it's pretty damned easy to fall behind a couple of months. Along with all the other bills I had to pay I could not afford to pay them to get my water turned on for two weeks. Lucky for the the power company would not cut off my heat so I fell behind on that to get my water turned on again. It's obvious to me you have never been poor. Do you know how much a a couple of bags of aluminum cans will bring you at the recycling plant? Jack fucking shit that's what. If you are lucky you can make a dollar and pay for a damned hot dog at the local 7-11.
I can't stand it when delusional fucks like you keep spreading lies about how a bunch of scrap aluminum you are going to gather in the ditches can fetch you $25.00. I did not have a car and all I had was a bike I bought for $10.00 from a kid how do propose I get a truckload of aluminum to the recycling plant (way out of town) so I can pay my bill.
While I am at it. How do you propose to collect more taxes from the poor. Only an idiot would propose that you go the people with the least money in your country and get enough money out of them to run the country while letting the rich go. Even if you confiscated a 100% of all the income from the poor you could not raise enough money to run the country for a day. How do you punish the homeless people when they refuse to hand over that dollar that they made when loaded up their nonexistent trucks with the scrap aluminum and took ti across town to the recycling center. Send them to jail? Whooo that's smart give them shelter and food cos they did not give you dollar.
Every night I would get calls from collectors and I would tell them the same thing. Sorry I can't pay you I have no more money. You can't collect blood from a stone and I got no more left. For years I scraped by like that living on the handouts from people around me. People who helped me out and fed me when I most needed it. I now glady help others in need because I know what it feels like to starve (literally).
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
Did you believe that lie. He never said that. I know most republicans are pretty stupid and like to lie alot but repeating this same old lie is getting boring. Why can't you keep repeating some other lie.

Corporation could put you in jail if the government didn't do it for them. Actually that's not really true corporations are much more likely to kill you or break your kneecaps like they did to unionists in the days of yore. After all why would they voluntarily house you and feed you when they can simply disable or kill you.
Of course corporations would actually house and feed you if they could force you to work down in the mines breathing coal dust (which they did for a long time) but even then they would routinely kill or maim those who tried to break free out of their bondage.
The only reason corporations don't revert to that mode of working is because the government agreed to do it for them.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
You my friend are an idiot. I was poor for a long time and let me tell you when you are behind in your payments to the bank, telephone company, and the water company the last thing you get to do is to buy beer. My damned water was shut off for two weeks until I could scrape enough money to pay them something. What I should have done was to hit some rich fuck over the head and grabbed his hundred dollars but unluckily the rich people never entered my neighborhood and the cops hasseled you when you dared to venture into their neigborhoods.

This so typical of the govt. Hey we got 25 idiots who can turn windows on and click on the wizards and 5 people who can do nix. Let's go with the idiots!!.
What kind of crieterea is that for mission critical national security software? Lets take a poll and see how many people can use what!. What kind of collosal idiots are making decisions based on a popularity contest. Why not shoose the software that's going to work best, work fastest for the least amount of money and then train your people. Most government labs have insane turnover anyway for chrissake. More tax money spent down the drain.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
The JVM runs TONS of languages way more then CLR probably ever will. The JVM runs on just about any OS you can imagine the CLR only runs on one.
Why would you give up support for hundreds of languages and cross platform freedom just to lock yourself into the windows platform and a couple of languages. CLR and.NYET are all tradoff and no gain.

Listen moderators. Just because a post bashes Linux you do not have to moderate it up to 5. This guy is clueless for gods sake.
For one exactly how is the slackware file system different then any other llinux file system.
For another he can not get 70% of software installed on a linux system and his record on a bas system is only 40%. What kind of BOZO keeps using systems when he can not even load software on it!.
This guy is a clueless wonder and should be using a mac. I got my 72 year old dad a mac and his compile percentage is 0%. I would recommend a mac for this xonix7 luser too. that way he does not have to compile anything at all.
Most people are ashamed of their ignorance and don't flaunt their failures but this guy seems to want to trumpet to the rest of the world that he is incapable of compiling a program under linux. This is a opposite of insightful get it?
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
The Linux community defends itself because it is attacked. If MS did not attack linux then there would be no need to defend it. All they have to do is to stop lying. Someone once told me its actually is possible to do marketing without lying so maybe MS can try that for a change.

Somebody on this thread had a link (too bad I did not bookmark it) that showed a BUNCH of languages that ran on the JVM. Including odd things like LOGO!.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
seems shorsighted to me. If you know there is going to be significant improvement in the next couple of months you'd be fool to ignore that and go with the best platform right now. In two months your competitors will be zooming by you.
Having said that you could always use aolserver which is godawful fast and php right now and cook and go into overdrive when kernel 2.4 get out.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
If you were really interested in performance why wouldn't you use tux or aolserver. Both of them are much much much faster then apache and probably as fast if not faster then IIS.
Hey it great to have so many choices.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
CLR won't be ported to other platforms unless if fails miserably. As long as.net is successful MS has zero insentive to give people both a choice of OS and a choice of language. What would they get out of it. Oddly enought SUN does do that. The JVM runs on any platform and supports a bunch of languages including perl, python, tcl etc.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
First of all the Java Virtual machine already supports more languages then the MS virtual machine. So far the MS virtual machine supports only c# and some derivative of eiffel. The JVM meanwhile supports PERL, Python, TCL, and a bunch of less popular languages. Your premise that the JVM ties you to java is not correct. I will grant of course that java runs better in the VM then say python.
I also question the need to abandon platform independence in order to get some perceived language independence. MS has absolutely no motivation to implement an architecture that would provide BOTH language independence AND OS indepence and guess what JVM already does that!.
Of course all the MS shops will use.NET (they always retrain their people with whatever MS is doing at any given time) and I don't see any Java shops abandoning their investment either. The real question is which platform will the new users choose and which platform will be thought in schools.

Not one person in the united states knows all of the law. The law is so complicated that it takes years of education and experience to become competent at one tiny fraction of the law in one state. No ordinary human being with a normal job and life is capable of analyzing a legal argument it will all be done from a completely ignorant pint of view. the same goes for science, plumbing, welding, or computers. Most people are totaly igrant of every single subject which they don't use daily.
Ask yourself this question. Do I believe in pluto? Do you? why?
Have ever seen it, seen a picture of it, a video of it, have you ever talked to anybody who has seen it, have you touched it?
Chances are you believe it cos you were told by somebody that it's true and or you read it in a book. Pretty damned flimsy evidence don't you think?
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
Ooooh can I move to your planet please.
The one where G.W hasn't raised a 100 million dollars from sleazy big money, where his rich texas buddies are not buying ads suggesting John McCain is in favor of giving breast cancer to women and he routinely does not confuse facts and misprounce words?
Too bad Clinton is not allowed to run again he would whip dubyas ass just like he whipped his daddies ass.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
Just like you I am going to get moderated down for critisizing MS but here goes.
Also add to your list perjury. Just about every executive of MS lied under oath and rightly belongs in court on criminal charges. There was also at least one case of evidence tampring if any DA is brave enough to actually enforce the laws.
It's probably all for moot if G.W wins though MS has him in their pockets.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
They were sent here to moderate each other up. While we were judging posts on quality and originality they were moderating up all the pro MS anti linux posts. Slashdot is dead time go hang out where MS hasn't slimed the landscape yet. I wonder where that is?
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
It seems like the MS people have formed a gang and are moderating themselves up. Have you noticed lately that all the pro MS, anti linux posts are being moderated up to 5? It's my fault for not meta moderating. I will be sure to start again.

I don't think the author intended to imply that the drop in stock price was related to this licensing. I think he was stating that he was glad that bad things were happening to a company which he does not like. This is perfectly OK in my book. I frequently rejoyce whenever a company I don't like falls upon some misfortune.
A Dick and a Bush.. You know somebody's gonna get screwed.
The poster wanted to stick with which to whack corporations. Well guess what like it or not unions are the only stick you can use (OK maybe the the trial lawyers too). The govt will not do it, the shareholders don't mind anything as longs as they make money. The fact remains. If a corporation is misbehaving in your opinion and you can't afford to hire a lawyer to sue them or you have no standing for a suit then there is only one thing you can do. Go hang out in front of the place and pass out union literature. There is no other way to whack a corporation.
You seem to think that the only way to fight a bully is with a pure virgin and this is not true. It takes powerful and mean people to fight other powerful and mean people. Corporations are powerful and mean and so are the unions that's the way it's gotta be or one would roll ver the other.
