  1. Re:SCO attempting to prove selective enforcement? on FSF Subpoenaed by SCO · · Score: 1

    But SCO is suing about the kernel specifically, so that wouldn't be GNU.

    sorta like nuking the Marshal islands every few thousand years,

    Hey, I thought that was a great idea. The golfball-sized head lice are way easier to see than the old, tiny kind.

    A late, great magazine.

    No, it does copy. Given a large file and a slow machine, it can take 10 or 15 seconds to copy the file to its final location, even on the same partition, and you even get a progress window. (Note: This is my experience under Win98. I don't know about recent Windows versions.)

    Still, I manage a GPA of 5.5

    Out of what? Where I went, 4.0 was the highest possible GPA.

    I am in no way an extremely intelligent person

    Or maybe you're just modest.

    Many times, striving hard to educate oneself is simply far, far superior than "working hard to get educated by someone else"...

    I agree! Unfortunately, the years of hard work and study I put into memorizing every piece of Star Trek minutiae just isn't getting me a job or a chick. Damn!

    A huge "if".

    I don't see how that follows. Maybe God just sits back and watches the universe unfold like it's a reality show on TV.

    I do think there are unicorns

    Uh-huh. Please, go on. :: /me backs away slowly ::

    Ahem. Seriously, your lack of belief in unicorns makes you a unicorn-atheist. Your belief that it is probably impossible to prove one way or the other if unicorns exist makes you a unicorn-agnostic.

    This, IMHO, is a bizarre design choice for a free software package.

    It (StarOffice) wasn't a free software package when it was designed. Now that it is free, developers are trying to break it up into modules.
