If you thought it has taken forever for Mozilla to release a v1.0, just look at Hurd. At this rate, Open Sores will have developed a good GUI by 2052.
This is yet another triumph of Open Sores software development.
Yet another
crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered *BSD community when recently
IDC confirmed that *BSD accounts for less than a fraction of 1
percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft
survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share,
this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD
is collapsing in complete disarray, as further exemplified by
failing dead last [samag.com] in the recent Sys Admin
comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin [amdest.com]
to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD
faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for
*BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for
*BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market
share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. FreeBSD is the most
endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader
Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users
of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD
posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are
about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about
half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700
users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent
of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400
FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet
posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and
so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by
BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead,
its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major
surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is
very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD
is to survive at all it will be among OS hobbyist dabblers. *BSD
continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at
this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.
Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis, Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong? It's swell to have a stiffy, It's divine to own a dick, From the tiniest little tadger, To the world's biggest prick.
So three cheers for your Willy or John Thomas, Hooray for your one-eyed trouser snake, Your piece of pork, your wife's best friend, Your Percy or your cock, You can wrap it up in ribbons, You can slip it in your sock,

Natalie Portman denounces hot grits By: Hob Goblin 1 April, 2000
/ Troll News Bureau / - In a move that has astounded many loyal fans in the Troll Community, Natalie Portman denounced hot grits at a press conference earlier today. Apparently she became disgusted after an unidentified Troll offered to pour hot grits down her pants in exchange for one goblin, a bowl of oatmeal and three hours of monkey sex.
"Hot Grits are heavily contributing to the downfall of this society" Portman stated "and I can't stand this insanity anymore, something must be done to protect myself and people like me from these ruthless grits fiends." Supporters cheered as Portman left the podium.
Several groups protesting outside of the conference showed their disgust at Portman's comments by holding a grit party where wheelbarrows full of hot grits were waiting for anybody who cared to take the plunge. "Hot Grits are my life." one protester said as he poured another bowl down his shorts, "I can't live without them and I'm sick of everybody always complaining about them."
Legislation has been introduced into the House of Trollmasters that would restrict the act of grit pouring to people's homes, it is not expected to pass as most the Trollmasters are avid grits fans.

Thank you to my friends copy and paste.
Wow... this first post was actually your very first post. That's like hitting a homerun in your first at-bat. Mad propz to you Mr. Rod.
Kiss my grits!
Are you all retarted?
No, though some people are retarded... jackass....

The canucks should have an advantage developing this system since Canada and Mars are so similar.
What do you think of that, you hosers?
As of 7:00pm, you have not been modded down for your first post just yet. Looks like the moderators are getting lazzzzzzzzy.
I don't see what the big deal is. Mac users are 2nd-class citizens.

I am going to sue the Net for forcing me to look at pics of nasty gaping bungholes. The damage is irreparable, your honor.
Do you know how the marriage proposal happened? I wonder if RMS did it some lame way, like by proposing on slashdot. That would be really lame.
Bessie's days are numbered too!
you may approach the bench, but only if you're on your knees
First of all, that is not a smiley (note that the little turdball's mouth is a straight line).
The following is much better:

Mad propz to j0nkatz for the fine art work.
2nd of the day!! Yee haw!!! I'd like to dedicate this post to all crapflooders whose name is Phil.
