I don't agree about atheistic govenments, if you mean the US Bushy govenment then you can think again because he's Born again boyo.
no religon is about power over people with what ever lies will convince them to stay under heel.
To confuise the rights of the customer with the rights or non rights of the pirate is utter tiffle. statistical nois... wha are you on? if more than 10 people complain there are a further 100 sitting in silience putting up with it.
I think this is a major issue about over zelous copy protection which dos't do alot.
I know of only 2 infractions that the Mozilla Firefox Browser makes with CSS, HTML and Javascript to the standards.
There are pages for IE about it's non standardness.
I can't test in IE since I develop on a Linux platform and don't have windows machines. so IE people get a nice little link to download firefox.
Are you going to raise the production value a little? get some of those spray on CD covers or what have ya's, gifts I find may look a bit cheap written in black marker.
Although Linux is a very good idea, just some incentive.. maybe security or games...
Someone should say 'there are lots of ways to comit suiside on slashdot, one of these it to suport Microsnot'
face it, if you want impartial news goto TheRegister or BBC, slashdot is for FUDing it's self, I happen to enjoy it, but some people don't.
The firefox browser is a very very good product, compare that to the inforced, 'Use or you'll die of cancer' IE and you get why many people would choose to donate.
what you need is not inderviduals donating to a linux fight but SME's and IBM.
I agree to the fine point that putting Linux Device Drivers inside the kernel is a bad thing, but then they are moving towards modularity which should disperse the kernel monolith into smaller parts, or at least it could if someone was bothered to design a kernel source tree and installers for modules instead of the whole thing.
The Games industry is just one of the big media industies heading into a monotythic buisness style , alienating their customers for fear of not showing the board of directors some wizz bang to prevent copy right.
Remember DVD encryption? Remember Protected CD's?
Alot of the games companies can't afford to make games any more, that why you have people like EA, who don't make games but 'ipm'.
It's all about making you the customer pay for nothing, thats the ultimate goal, they have wet dreams about making films, games and music (even books) pay per view and never even think about asking the consumer who pays for their new linin.
$55 for HL2? wow thats cheep, we pay $90 for it here (UK), all media is like that, part from books. very expensive. ironic because the UK makes more games per pop head than anyone.
Most of the time I'd find a big company using a patent against my OSS project so unjust, I'd be compelled send round invitations to all their competitors for tea and biscuits and deliberately send round a 'you have jolly well not been invited to' invitation.
Rotters! Scally wags!
You could always use NASM and rewrite all your projects in assembler. much better than MSVS *shudder* or GCC, that always works. then you could even port or get someone else to port it to the other side.

They have test beds, I belive a reactor was running for 4 minutes under it's own steam before it was switched off.
Either way it's not right, Linux or variant of don't _belong_ to red hat. thats the whole point.
If you want all your base to belong to a big corperation, be my guest.
Don't worry knowing Linux and the IT of the public sector they'd have chmoded root to 777 long before any upgrade.
Yes but I'm entitled to piret on the grounds that media worth $40 costs me $100 because I'm in the UK, no really £60 for a series is not uncommon.
discusting really, media in this country is so damn expensive. that why I like ebay.
Maybe we need a link?

more than 25% of a market share is considered to be a monopoly in the UK.

I didn't say the tools were a bad idea, just not very well designed.

The question is does the compotion make them listion o run around like headless chickens?
.Net makes me shudder, reminds me of why I dislike php, asp and all the other langauages that see structure as a propritory play thing.
No, even in a command line there is such a thing as design. some programers just have no sense. look at find what a joke.

Lets not even talk about the light bulb or the vacume cleaner.
