Use his influence with the federal government to tie the open source effort with terrorism. Terrorism is the new communism. Cloak anything you don't like in terrorism and it gets done. Couple that with this administration's ability to be bought off by corporate interests and he can get what he wants.
OK, mod me down now.......
As a former Commodore user (only got rid of my Amiga about a year ago) one really has to wonder what the point is?
New Amigas? Kinda late for that don'tcha think?
A shell for nothing but endless litigation? Maybe Darl can get a job there after SCO's shareholders call for his head. Even then sounds like Tulip pulled a coup actually getting a sucker to spend more than 2 cents for the name.
Commodore is dead. They had sushi in the Amiga and they sold it as fish
Four small groups of dedicated astronomers in Arizona and California, totaling fewer than the number of employees at an average fast-food restaurant and using mostly off-the-shelf equipment for their telescopes, have been mapping the heavens and steadily adding to the number of known near-Earth objects. The article from TIME is here
Something more dedicated to this would make everyone feel better probably
I love bashing M$. I love bashing them tremendously and open source, TRUE open source on Windows is an excellent thing.
Obviously we all know what open source means but to the average Joe M$ user switching to open source means changing platforms for just about everything.
If we can get people informed as to what open source is on Windows first, then our evil nefarious plan to make them all switch to Linux should happen with less difficulty.
We constantly have a nightmare about people on our network installing spyware (we're half green suit/half civilian). Some day, some enterprising young person will create spyware with a key logger phoning home passwords galore. We already had a problem with HotBar clogging our pipe.
Admittedly we are't suppoed to be discussing classified information but we deal with politically sensitive stuff all the time.
The FACT act says that people in western states can get this now but some states, specifically Colorado, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Vermont, have required credit bureaus to do this for a while.
For the record, it's not tin foil, it's ALUMINUM FOIL. Tin and Aluminum are distinctly different things. Sorry but someone FINALLY had to point this out.
Let a bunch of other people do the work you tried to do.
Maybe I am wrong (and PLEASE correct me if I am because others may be laboring under this same idea)...
1. Firefox gets developed as an open source product
2. Netscape, by AOL, flounders and they basically fail in their mission
3. AOL kills Netscape development
4. AOL seeing a better mousetrap that's open source, decides to get BACK in the game on the backs of hard working open source developers everywhere.
On the other hand I am all for any initiative that can handily take on IE.
<STALLMAN>
Still there's just something that pisses me off about co-opting the work of the open source community
</STALLMAN>
I know that a lot of folks when thinking of the Open Source wars think that it's about Linux replacing Windows but where I work we are replacing Solaris with Linux.
It's mucho easy to do.
If you're in a burning house you don't really wonder "Gee I wonder who the architect is?", "I wonder how much he got paid?", you just might want to get out and not really worry about it.
Even if you could answer the question regarding an intelligent creator (WHICH you can't), it's pointless.
is that no matter what..he made the movies. Obviously during his time he was a positively horrible producer but he lived his dream.....
People keep saying his "masterpiece" was Plan 9 but you REALLY should see Glen or Glenda? if for nothing else the mixture of Bela Lugosi and a buffalo stampede.
Rest assured, Google has thought ahead. They do have geocoder type apps in the works and this is just a logical acquisition to make, ESPECIALLY when you're flush with cash (Don't forget their stock price has really climbed). After all, if you're going to use Google Local then you might want to provide a map.

All of the sudden I'm feeling a little bit country.
If an asteroid causes the next wave, you'll feel a little rock and roll too...... Donnie O.
Now how many non Windows viruses were there? You could probably count them on one hand. Let's give credit (or blame) where it is due.
You really HAVE to give it anyone that can pull this off, especially to /.ers.
Bravo, bravo...
clap, clap, clap, clap

Everyone remember when anon.funet.fi was raided at the request of scientology?
With enough money to fund attorneys you can apparently get other countries, especially the Finnish, to comply.

Open Source is a philosphy, not a platform.

Creation is not a theory, it's fiction. To be theory it has to at least be scientifically plausible.
