...is too polite a term to apply to MOG's nasty, mean-spirited, hateful, spiteful personal attack. I'm utterly flabbergasted that MOG would stoop to this. Her "article" is nothing more than vendetta-driven screed intended to cause harm. Perhaps we shouldn't be surprised, though: because O'Gara can't assail Groklaw's message on its merits, all she has left to do is either shut up or attack the messenger. She would have done better to shut up.
Bzzt! Thanks for playing. Being physically deprived of something is not the standard for theft; it's unauthorized use. "Morally, morality is a personal thing." What a self-serving, navel-gazing crock. When one person's so-called "personal morality" affects someone else, it's no longer personal.
I have mixed feelings about this. I'm glad to see the guy get punished and I have no doubts that he's guilty. And jail time seems appropriate insofar as he'd likely not be able to pay the fines. But is nine years warranted? Why not do to him what was done to Mitnick: no involvement with computers of any sort for some fixed (but long) amount of time.
Good grief, man. Relationships depend on high level of trust, there's no argument about that. But you're not in a relationship that involves any level of trust whatsoever. You might trust her, but just from what you've written here, she doesn't trust you one bit.
Well, as much as this annoys me, Judge Wells is right. SCO gets to look at still more code, but when they still don't find anything, SCO will have nothing left to say. There's nothing there there, and this order ought to establish that fact once and for all.
If you'd actually read the posts, you'd see there are a lot of people doing white collar work for a living who do distinctly dirty collar work on the side. I'd say you're the fucktard because you've copped a load of resentment toward people who have things you don't (or didn't).
What's that? Oh, it's your mommy calling. Run along little boy.
The submitter wrote that Tiemann's responses in the interview show that RedHat's [sic] community product, Fedora, has a bright future. That's not quite right. They "show" rather that Tiemann believes that Fedora has a bright future, which is quite a different statement. That is, just because Mr. Tiemann makes a statement, it isn't ipso facto the case.
That said, Tiemann did a good job of representing Red Hat and highlighting what he thinks are Red Hat's noteworthy achievements.
Darl McBride announced today that he would sell licenses to use his face on Halloween masks. The licenses will reportedly be available for $695.00 and come with a guarantee that you won't be sued.
What I find really interesting is that this story, or various versions of it, while hardly "new," starts popping up on news sites all at once? It sounds like some organization is running a PR campaign, but it isn't quite astroturfing.
Nothing here but the latest chapter in what's getting to be a repetitive tale: delay the inevitable with (Gasp! Horror!) YAM (Yet Another Motion). IBM will likely answer that SCO has had plenty of time and that the real problem SCO has is, in a phrase, "there's nothing there, there." Of course, the lawyers must love it - they're going to get every last penny of that $US31 million at which SCO "capped" the payments.
Scum-sucking bottom-dwellers, and I haven't even started talking about the lawyers.
Could it be that Beowulf clusters, however cost-effective and powerful they have become, are
passé now that most universities and research institutions have some sort of COTS-based high-performance computing solutions? Not that Beowulf isn't cool - it is - it just doesn't seem as cool as it used to.

Which is the only direction it deserves to go.

At this point, I'm not seeing this as a serious problem.
Pet Sematary. I loved my cat, but that whole glowing-eyes-bad-temper thing is a definite turn-off.
Stephen King's novel is great, but this is one development that I'd prefer to keep strictly fiction.

It's funny. Laugh.

...until he changes his mind.
Puhleeze! Darl has simply become a caricature at this point:
Actually, he became a caricature months ago. This just makes it official. What a joke.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has a closely related story: Software disasters are often people problems. Well, duh: "Garbage in; garbage out."
What I find really interesting is that this story, or various versions of it, while hardly "new," starts popping up on news sites all at once? It sounds like some organization is running a PR campaign, but it isn't quite astroturfing.
The geek factor will go way up after you break your brand new Oakley MP3 player shades and tape them together across the bridge...

Lovely. One monopoly, Virgin, complaining about the monopolistic practices of another (alleged) monopoly? Please. Richard Branson has enough money.
