A strategic dependency from a company is a problem. For a larger client doing a Linux migration, even a fake one, is just the smart thing to do. It helps you to identify and overcome your lock-ins.
In Germany the government provides a nice guide for platform independence.
In other words, someone hacked VBA shit without any central knowledge and they had to provide that functionality and now they hack their shit with Linux.
No, just that they didn't know about the complication. In any case, a lock-in is a strategic problem of your IT infrastructure which needs to get fixed.
The point is not Christianity, it is more that most religions were anti-sex and there are good and pragmatic historical reasons for it. In particular when you perceive it as a societal device.
a) Evolution: Essentially civilizations with different opinions suffer from sexual deseases and die. That is evolution. Stop to work and build large stone gods, nice religion but no chance of survival. "Become homosexual and kill all women", no sustainable belief system from an evolutionary perspective. b) Society and conflicts: Polygamic societies probably lead to more social unequality. Then the feudal heritage as a primary class where legitimate relationships are very important. Promiscurity was tried, does not really work. So as all religions answer the question how to do it right, you expect a tradition to evolve along the lines of marriage and trust.
The first modern pro-sex religion was Freudianism.
No one is ever totally wrong. That is the danger of it all.
I suppose there were good reasons to vote the Nazi party in 1932. When you read Lenin it also sounds very reasonable. Many Westerners admired the ambitions of Chairman Mao...
But regardless what you think of it, "socialism" is nothing but saying we take the social problems serious. In that sense each German party more or less serves you well.
It is just the smart thing to do. I expect more nations to switch to Linux as their desktop operating system to save the dependency on "Red Mond". I mean, monoculture is dangerous for their national security. Linux is very strong in Latin nations for egovernment purposes. The nation to switch first is able to create a very sustainable Linux eco system and it is able to get the Microsoft political benefits as well. Win!
Looks great, really, I would love all governments to switch to Linux flavours as their Desktop operating system, so we are no longer slaves to "Red Mond" licensing.
Yes, but there are infringement proceedings against some member states because they don't apply the directive, there are other constitutional courts which rejected it, so a simple recast of the directive is required by the Commission anyway because the directive is wrecked.
ACTA certainly deserves more attention but there are other FTA with such provisions as well.
But that is not socialism in most parts of the world. That is the unique American reality distortion together with paranoia towards socialism. So we made our negative experiences with socialism and know what we oppose. But American anti-socialism is mostly ideological without any experience.
I mean, no one seriously opposes health care insurance. That is just a crazy mind reform in the States which makes the scum defend the economical interests of the upper percentile.
This guy really appears to be crazy. Mussolini had a newspaper. Glenn Beck has TV.
I assume he is nothing but a person to astroturf a hate movement to avoid public riots, outcry and irrational actions against the bankers and economical leaders in the aftermath of severe economical turmoil, job loss and so forth. In 1929 it was the jews from next door which took the blame and we witnessed the sudden rise of the nazi movement to contain the communists. Beck explicitly appeals to anti-bank tin foils and turns their message around. There must be a good reason why he is funded to say what he says on American Television.
In times of crisis capitalism funds extremists, not moderates, and targets the low income percentile, and it needs a scape goat.
Slashdot Mirror
As there are no technical reasons to keep IE9 away from XP we will soon get the message that IE9 is now also kindly offered for XP users.
That is Public Relations.

I didn't know the US first nation was into programming.

Use LXDE
Why do artists need to get paid? Do you get paid for your slashdot comments?
You could still make fun
Well, there are good scientific methods to measure income distribution.
No one needs innovation. We just need simplicity and reliability. Still I expect KDE 4.5 would meet all my needs.
But generally speaking Desktop Environments are obsolete.
What role for open source policies in the public sector, vendor neutrality and open standards?
Gnustep is a Fosdem yoyo. Each year they meet at Fosdem, then some development takes place.

GNUStep needs a decent theme.
They should simply fork it as a MAC X Emulator and set the objective to get all MAC applications running. That would inspire developers.
Not so sure... but OpenOffice is after all from Hamburg... Germany and France have a strong open source development scene.

Maybe we need a web site to record all unconstitutional laws and demand sanctions against the ministerial officials.

That is the way it works. Indeed.
It is just that maybe the Commission should attack the Microsoft Cash cows like Office first.
Just in case you want to file a complaint against a dominant company operating on European markets, just use this form.
Ah, so the government should spread illegal copies with viruses.
