They're claiming that after all this time they haven't taken the 10-20 minutes to download the mplayer source and compare it to theirs, and would like to hurl a few offensive comments towards the mplayer developers and the rest of the open source community before investigating if the claims are valid.
Notice how he states that they're not violating the GPL, then proceeds to bash the GPL as if they were. Unless they found something incriminating and went "Of F**K, we violated the GPL," it makes no sense for them to argue that the GPL is weak.
The idea of further space travel may inspire americans to innovate more. Plus a lot of inventions and discoveries come out of the space program. Computers would not be where they are today without the space program. I see a great potential for new recycling and power consumption technologies to come out of this, which could help reverse the damage we've been causing to the planet. Etc.
The old SCO is now Tarantella. Caldera took over the name.
The old SCO may have known exactly what they were buying. But the new SCO has to do a lot of detective work.
It should be noted that Tarantella has recently expanded their product support for Linux. They wouldn't do this if they thought SCO had a case, and being the ones that acquired UNIX from Novell, they're in the best position to know.
I expect to be getting an MS in CS in 2006. My only regret is that there was little left for me to learn even from the beginning. Although I've learned stuff, over 90% of it has been going over what I already knew in high school. The degree is only a costly piece of paper to me, but to prospective employers it's a damn valuable piece of paper.
I stuck a bare CD into a drive that required a caddy, before I knew that kind of CD drive existed. This was at school in the 7th grade (I'm a college senior now). If anyone had seen it, there would have been an uproar, because I was a well known, but not well liked (at the time) computer nerd. As I was too rushed to get it out to think carefully, I committed another foolish act by fishing it out with a paper clip. Luckily I didn't cause many scratches.
I messed up. It's one of those four letter acronyms. FISA. I was in a class last year where we had to research several privacy related laws, court rulings, and the dmca and patriot acts. I think the class was called "Information Technology: Ethics and Legal Issues". But the teacher is one of those paranoid folks who no longer trusts the government to respect their privacy, and keeps himself informed on the topic.
I was addicted to both 1 and 2. My interest was revitalized when I downloaded the final Civ2 patch, which made the gameplay an order of magnitude less tedious. I don't have 3 though. Work and college have cut short my gaming life.
I've never placed though. Had an othello game and an encrypted program within a program (interpreter). In retrospect I probably should have chosen a different game because othello had been done before, and written a bigger program to run on the interpreter.
I recognize one of the 2000 winners though from the Robot Battle Mailing List, long before he was in the contest.

that this would help us get dates. Oh the terrible loneliness.
Thanks.
Notice how if you increment the letters in VMS you get WNT.
That's the per seat price.
I don't have time to read them now because I'm working, but now I have something extra to look forward to when I get home.
Novell, the enemy of the enemy of my enemy who is the enemy of my greater enemy, is my friend, I think.

The chart also has two arrows pointing from Linux to SCO UnixWare.
The "miserable failure" linking campaign was strong enough that searching on only one of the words will list Dubya at the top.
I responded earlier about this. Unfortunately you can't fix mistakes after you click "post". That's FISA.
The reply and forward buttons are like right next to each other.
What can possibly be so special about this case that makes do-it-yourself backups impractical?
Slashdotted already.
What was this story about again?
Perhaps you should post a bug report about it.

If true, then Novell owns it for now and any wrongdoing has been against them, not SCO. SCO would still have no case.
To argue that those 2 pixels are the Mars Pathfinder, with all that random noise in the photograph.

I started on a PCjr. But in my case it was free and I got a second one for $25 which came with all the software and cartridges I wanted.

But this is like teaching calculus students remedial math. The "Level: Intermediate" at the top of the article should have given that away.

Except that the Feds gave it the name "Internet Protocol Address Verifier" so that they could justify charging taxpayers millions to develop it.
