  6. What did MS buy? on SCO's Plan Examined · · Score: 1

    ahem what did Ms buy by the way?

    SCo does not own any standard api to unix..opengroup does..

    the only thing sco group owns is system v code..

    While I do nto have thext of the license that MS bought from sco..

    I call your post pure FUD in nature..

    MS has for almost 5 years had interfaces to unix type stuff without any licensing becuse opengorup does nto require it in fact..

  7. a question? on HP Offers Linux Purchasers Indemnification · · Score: 1, Insightful

    considering that suing any users of copyrighted works whether its software, books or etc for infringment of the creator of that work is a considered not to have alegal standing and be a frivilous lawsuit..

    What exactly is Hp indemifying since it woudl automatically win any lawsuit in this case given the conditions above?

  12. a question for Jonathan on Sun's Schwartz Speaks Out on Linux, SCO · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How does a billion dollar company keep makign thse big goofs..

    First implying that they will indemify a cusotmer against frivouls lawsuits on copyright infringment..remeber users are never sued in a copyright matter becasue there is no legal basis to do so..

    Two, saying linxu on servers is a non issue when in fact Unix software OS dying such as Solaris is a reality..take a look at Sun's last quarter statement on rpofit and loss to see why..

  13. biology on Low-Cal Diet Extends Life... As Long as You Don't Eat · · Score: 2, Informative

    it has to do with reducing the radical ions produced during the normal food 'burning'/calorie buring in the human body..

    Radical ions trigger runaway cell growth(press calls it cancer) that cannot be killed off by the normal cell killing mechanisms(doctors call this process cancer), they accomplish this set of bad effects by damamging DNA beyond what DNA repair enzymes and methods can handle..

    In summary Fat/Eating challlenged people will live less in terms of number of years...

    While increasing metabolish can cause wieght loss..unless reductions in calorie and food intake is made ..the net efect is loss in wieght but still failure to live longer in years..

    While I cannot give details as Uncle Sam deems normal citizens as more likely to be trrorists rather than visa candidates here is what I know bases on my military training..

    1. All terrorists speak arabic and write it while CIA, FBI, and other law enforcement officals do not.

    2. Terrorists come in all social economic classes

    3. Psychology profiles tend to indicate fundamentalism in religon as a binding force.

    You cannot defeat the enemy if you are not willing to even speak the langague and walk into that life by knowing how reliong contributes to the terrorist profile. USa gets f*ing F on security and terrorist acts prevention..Note real arabic speakingcitizens of USA want to serve FBI in this regard and the FBI would rathe rfocus on spreading racism than receiving help..

    Welcome to Ashcroft's USA where only he can be president..

    Folks it snot credit profiles, law offenses, or etc..the popel ewho blew up the fed building in Oklahoma were of a specific religous sect so were the poeple at waco..have we forgottten? While religon alone shoudl not be the determining factor..a religous sect that is known for producing terrorists is obvious a good indicator!

    Al-Queda is both a terrorist group and a religous offshoot of wabbi..we even went for the worng country Iraq..are there any wabbi in Iraq? No...

    Lets see where are there wabbi sects? Afganistan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, UAR..get the poicture yet?

    There is in fact an opensource implementation..

    its more than what you read in that its a move towards HAVi-DVB-DHP an iTV set of apis..

    Sun in fact asked the FCC to make it a requirement that the bigest cable operator that bought DirectTV to accept the standard as part of the acceptance of the DirectTV buyout as part of FCC normal powers..
