And when is Duhbya going to find all those stockpiles of nerve gas, anthrax, smallpox, and nuclear weapons in Iraq? You know, the ones that made us invade in such a farking hurry?
Looking at the DistribFold home page, I would say it's not the same project. Folding@Home is run out of Stanford and has a Linux client, both not true of DistribFold.
Since some dittohead fuckwits modded the parent post in this thread down to zero, I'll repost it here for everyone's benefit:
This administration lies about everything -- every goddamned thing -- as a matter of permanent policy. They will say anything that they want the public to believe, while they do whatever they want. And what they want is to get money for themselves and their big campaign contributors, that is absolutely all they are about. What a disaster for the country. The worst administation ever, the American version of a "kleptocracy."
BTW a "kleptocracy" is a "government by thieves," the best possible description of the Bush administration. A couple of recent examples of their mendacity (mendacity means "whorishness"):

If Microsoft is supporting India's many languages out of the box, I could understand the decision. If on the other hand the Indians have to compute in English anyway, it makes no sense. I suspect massive bribery was involved.
OK, I'll supply one. Remember when that guy who draws Dilbert was going to launch a line of prepared food products for geeks... like Dilburritos, or something like that?
When things seem really bleak and hopeless, just think about what a total, colossal failure that must have been, and you'll be cheered up in no time!
Well, they obviously can't mean that their products have value that persists over time, like a fine wine. They are saying "long term value" because their products are obviously not a better value than Linux right out of the box. But they think there is some value calculation that puts them ahead, somehow.
But how much do you think it would cost to get a comparable Microsoft product with all of the value of a Linux distro? Meaning unlimited seats for an unlimited time, right to copy and modify the source, tons of apps, development environments, db and web servers, etc.? Really, you can't get that from Microsoft at any price.
Slashdot Mirror
Way to go Christopher!
Seriously. That would rock.
I know the graphics are better in more recent versions but the gameplay is not as good IMHO. UT 99 is alive and well, and runs native on Linux too!

When Duhbya lies, people die.
But that's OK because he loves Jeebus real hard.
Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star?
Sorry, Bush is going to wreck Social Security. It's history.
Duhbya does not need any help destroying American jobs.

>The detectors are apparently so accurate they can measure to one-thousandth of the width of a proton! How did they test that it works?
They used it to measure the length of Cowboy Neil's wang.
I agree 100%. I really wished they would cancel the series after seeing that episode. But things have gotten better recently.
I just checked out Vendetta, and I agree it kicks ass.
Bush White House stops EPA from issuing warning about asbestos insulation in homes!
Why don't you try to learn something instead of being an ignorant, smug arsehole.

How industry lobbyists totally control the White House
How the Bush "administration" is planning to let the lead industry start poisoning children again, like in the good old days.
Go ahead and mod me down again, I'll just repost my comment. I have karma to burn.

Anybody know a place where we can order 12 tons of fresh pig shite?

Oh, yeah? Well, did Hari Seldon predict THIS?
I always mod these down as Redundant, when I have the points.

its war against Linux!
its: possessive of "it"
it's: contraction of "it is"
Actually, that game is not called "fetch." It's called "throw."
What on Earth do you do with all those computers?
