  1. Re:assuming that wasn't a troll... on R.I.P. Linuxbox · · Score: 1

    hmmm....$7000 vs. $billions... Who can afford deadbeats? I know the principle is the same, but geez...
    Besides, free windows CDs make great coasters for the coffee table.

  2. Re:Kernel Upgrade Fetishes on Linux 2.2.11 Released · · Score: 1

    You guys just don't get the concept of tongue in cheek humour, do you?

  3. Re:Honorary Doctorate on Linus To Recieve Honorary Doctorate · · Score: 1

    Pfft...you think that's bad? When I graduated in '97, the University I graduated from gave Sharon, Lois, and Bram (the childrens story tellers/musicians) honorary doctorates. I guess they were all out of deserving individuals.

  4. Send them on over on Chain Letter on AOL fools TV station · · Score: 1

    Someone should send them a link to the greatest news source on the net, The Onion. I can only imagine what news stories they would come out with then (well, I wouldn't have to imagine, now would I?).


  5. Re:Lemme tell you about the iron ring... on Should Programmers Be Certified? · · Score: 1

    I think the poster may have been talking about McGill, which is offering a software engineering course and their entire engineering program is in danger of not being recognized/certified as a result.

  6. Re:Death to the GPL on Should Programmers Be Certified? · · Score: 1

    Bollocks. I've already spent many thousands of dollars attaining my degree, and have no problem writing free software. It's the prinicipal and spirit of the GPL that matters, in the same vein as volunteer work to benefit the community. Otherwise you may as well work for Microslut.
