  1. Re:We Don't Hate Them on IBM Puts Pressure On SCO · · Score: 1

    This post may contain anti-SCO content sposored secretly by IBM. In fact, they must be shitting their pants.

    In my totally unbiased and independent opinion, IBM rocks.

  2. Re:Childish screening procedures. on Linus to SCO: 'Please Grow Up' · · Score: 1

    A code monkey in the trenches who needs a job to pay the bills isn't necessarily an enemy of open source.

    But what about the thousands of contractors who were blown up on the second Death Star? Were they innocent bystanders? Or were they getting rich and fat sucking the teat of Emporer Palpatine?

    And what about the Ewoks? Won't anyone please think about the Ewoks? Ewoks have feelings, too. Remember the one that got blown up and the other one tried to wake it up, but it wouldn't because it was dead and then the first one just sat there and started to cry? I wanted to cry, too.

    If the Ewoks and the Death Star don't make sense, then there's no way that Linux has any SCOde in it, because, quite frankly, Ewoks and Death Stars make no sense. And neither does the SCO lawsuit.

  3. Re:Negotiating Prices... on SCO Run-Time Licenses: Get 'em While They're Hot! · · Score: 1

    Just ignore him people. As a reminder, the memo sent out from Armonk this morning declared today a pro-GPL day, not a bash-SCO day. Also, those of you who haven't filled in your timseheets from last week need to get that done by tomorrow or you don't get paid.

  4. So many lawsuits... on SCO's Next Target: SGI? · · Score: 5, Funny

    so little time. How will they fit in time to dump their stock? Priorities and all that.

  5. Re:I I tell everybody how SCOs claim is ludicrous. on Eric Raymond's Homebrew SCO Poison · · Score: 1

    ...can I get a check from IBM too?

    Not exactly. People patricipating in what we've tentatively codenamed the "Friends United Concerning Kernel Ownership Fees For SCO" are technically independent contractors who get paid monthly based on their performance, on top of a base salary. You can find out more here.

    Anybody know what benefits I get once I'm on payroll? Medical?

    Yes.

    401k?

    Yes.

    Do I Have to wear a tie?

    Nope.

    And, if you get 5 or more people to sign up from your place of work, we come to your job and bring free sodas every day, and install a foosball table. And air hockey, too.

  6. Re:ready to go.. on Linux 2.4.22 Stable Kernel Released · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, the number are meaningless. We're working on a plan to renumber the entire kernel back to 1.X.Y since SCO said that the problems showed up after 2.2 . Stay tuned! And don't forget to check your paypal accounts for your compensation for coordinating the SCO attack. Many thanks to all!

  7. Just a Reminder on Embarrassing Dispatches From The SCO Front · · Score: 1

    Since today is an odd-numbered day of the month, messages in SCO threads should extol the virtues of Linux and Free Software and the GPL and NOT attack SCO. You were specifically told that attacks on SCO are supposed to take place on even-numbered days of the month.

    Remember, if you fail to follow these rules, you don't get paid.

  8. I'm offended on SCO Says IBM is Beating Up on Them · · Score: 2, Informative

    They think we can't think for ourselves?
