There is nothing like the first time your using Linux someone sends you a link to a Windows Media file... now what are you supposed to do with that?
Reply back with a link to goatse (or some other nice little site)? That's what I do... and it seems to work well. People don't send me many.wm? files anymore.
Right on the money. Your sc.edu link caught my attention. Being a lousy klempsun student and all.
Hats off to USC's library system.. it has far bigger balls than ours. (Ours would probably have a page stating "We fully support the USA Patriot Act and we actively report persons to the FBI for future persecution.") Argh.
Maybe not. Maybe I just saw a horrifying headline on Drudge Report with no link, went to news.google.com to find the details, and submitted it to slashdot.
What does it matter if you all panicked and bought the google stock on ipo that "cmdr taco and the bunch have some deal on"? The stock price would go up whether you or Megashaft bought the shares.
If your theory were correct, then it would make more sense to just be quiet and count the money.
Drawing attention to the fact that Megashaft would dearly love to turn Google into IIS hell and getting people to realise what is going on is probably the best way of preventing it.
What did you do? I offer you this to modify and use as you see fit, if you desire.

Greetings,
CAGW Complained recently in http://www.cagw.org/site/PageServer?pagename=news_ NewsRelease_09302003b that free software is a "monopoly". I fail to see that, given that "free software" is not even a company. It is a software design concept. Furthermore, the Massachusetts proposal does nothing like what you have suggested. But let me get to the real points.
I seriously wonder where your organisation gets its ideas. The costs of maintaining Microsoft licenses are substantial, and in addition to wasting valuable taxpayer resources whenever a proprietary software system goes down, the security implications are simply astounding.
Don't get me wrong. I am a conservative, and I do care about government waste. But your press release was complete B.S. (to put it nicely).
I also find it highly hypocritical that the site www.cagw.org is running Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.6.5 OpenSSL/0.9.6e ApacheJServ/1.1.2 mod_fastcgi/2.2.10 on FreeBSD.
Both Apache and FreeBSD are free software. Expensive to keep up, eh, CAGW?
You'd probably be shocked to know that our nation's military and national security interests are using free software such as Linux (GASP!) to keep America safe. Might as well rush them off to the latest insecure Microsoft products and let the terrorists come on in, eh?
I have one real serious question for you: How much did Microsoft pay you?
it seems to work better if you use [:xdigit:] instead of [:alnum:];)
while true; do wget -O/dev/null http://`dd if=/dev/urandom bs=80 count=1 2>/dev/null | tr -d -c '[:xdigit:]'`.com/ ; done

Maybe if the companies actually scream. But if history is any example, they are more likely to just groan and rollover.
Not that I want to be pissing on anyone's parade or anything. I think the worst case scenario is that open source development is killed in the USA and we become a 3rd world nation.

Again, I can't see how MS could legally make a EULA that would affect competitors in such an obvious way and not get pulled back into court for anti-trust violations.
Darl, if your intentions were truly sincere, you would not have tried - yet again - to mislead us. And to misquote Bruce Perens to do so... that, my little desert fiend, is unforgiveable.
Thank you for having the balls to do so. With people like you taking a stand and actually being heard, there is a chance that Europe might be saved from the technological fate that awaits the United States.
It's probably time for me to start looking into the emigration process...

Indeed you are correct about not being able to totally eliminate the risk of lightning damage. However, good grounding procedures will greatly reduce that risk. I wouldn't underestimate this group, either. Many MIT students are Hams, and I'm sure a few in the group know how to properly install an outdoor antenna.
Slashdot Mirror
Try http://216.250.128.10/.
(btw... www.sco.com resolves to 216.250.128.12) It looks like this DDoS thing was just a fraud... they just hopped IP addresses.
Oops. Preview, preview, preview :(
www.sco.com resolves to 216.250.128.10, just two hosts away from the IP address in parent.
http://216.250.128.10
Why do you think sco hopped IP addresses?
HMMMMMM?
Buford "Maddog" Tannen is fighting mad! And I hate that name too, so now I'm even madder!
This story apparently inspired some poor systems peon at sco to set up email autoresponse to the email address mentioned in the story.
I tried it, it works. At least someone at SCO has some sense of humor.
My apologies... slashcode appears to have put those spaces there.
Stupid slashcode.

*THE* top intelligence agency in the world is careful about who they hire.
Sorry, this article was about the NSA, not MI6.
MI6 is so secretive that they didn't even "exist" until recent years.
Right on the money. Your sc.edu link caught my attention. Being a lousy klempsun student and all.

The scary thing is, with Hotmail they did it anyway.
Hotmail seems to be at least partly running on Win2K, too. Looks like someone doesn't exactly drink their own Kool-Aid.
Maybe not. Maybe I just saw a horrifying headline on Drudge Report with no link, went to news.google.com to find the details, and submitted it to slashdot.

You are buying a sort of legal protection from scox.
"Protection" sounds about right, eh paisan?
