To get some attention from the rest of the world, the North Korean people are DYING IN THE STREETS OF STARVATION!
They are adopting the strategy of the little nation (I've forgoten it's name) in "The Mouse that Roared", of fighting the US (or ANYONE with money) so that the US will come in and rebuild the nation.
fine, you're just picking apart my wording...
The point is that the license that I provide you may be word-for-word the same as the one that someone else provides you, but if you only violate the license and copyright on their software, you have not violate the license between us, so there is nothing I can do to you.
First of all, IANAL, but it would seem to me that the GPL is an agreement between the copyright holder and the person receiving the software (and code), if it is violated in the case of the kernel, the agreement between SCO and Torvalds (and all other contributers, I.E. IBM) is violated, but if SCO honors it's agreement in the case of other software, such as GCC, etc, then those copyright holders have no way to terminate the agreement, as they promissed not to in the GPL (unless it was violated in the case of their own software).
Basicaly, don't think of it as being THE GPL, but an INSTANCE OF the GPL, you can violate() one instance, but the other instances remain. (I guess..)
You might consider sending a handwiten letter and use your own name, that would seem a bit more human.
Also, most large companies will send polite-but-firm letters, so just threaten bodily harm to them and their pets, that should sound pretty un-corporate.
I suppose only the first sugesstion is really a good one, but I like the second one more, so I'm not going to remove it from my comment.
You're way off-topic, but you have just answered a long standing question of mine. ("Why do Japanese bands always list members in the form; '$BAND
are
@MEMBERS'?")
Why is the basic assumption that aliens have technology as or more advanced as our own? Maybe we should be the ones broadcasting (But I think we already are a bit...)
My senario goes like this...
1) WE eventualy go deap space travelling...
2) WE find some lowtech aliens, who are hospitible and kind...
Hey, I watch SCOX too... I've also come up with a more pro-active approach.
Anytime I'm at a bank and talking to the finatial advisor, or talking to people who invest, I point out that SCO is in the midst of a "Pump-n-Dump" and suggest that they dump any and all SCO stock. People dumping SCO stock drives the stock price down, and eventualy, they'll just disapear.
The real point here is that she can't sing, I have no objection to technology in music (MIDI for example, or wierd tech instruments, which I make and use myself) but I do object to is the fact that she can't sing, if we want to hear a synthesised singer, let's just eliminate the lipsync performer, and put the computer center stage! But the others playing her music, actualy can play to some extent or another.
I'm under the impression that she doesn't write any of the lyrics to the music, or take part in the creation of the music itself, so how can she be called an "artist" if she isn't perticipating in any of the art, I think "performer" would be a better word.
If you like it so much, fine.
They do, but there is a limit to how far you can adjust an signal before it sounds worse than being out of pitch. at that point the machine just stops bending the note.
None of the times I've been exposed to B.S. did she manage to sing in tune...
Have you ever heard of "real time pitch correction" basicly, you have a pitch shifting effects box, that you pipe your vocal chanel into, and there is also MIDI input, someone backstage playes the vocal melody on a MIDI keyboard, and the box automagicaly puts the signal from the singer into the proper pitch.
These are a mainstay of Pop music equipment.
And that is? You haven't mentioned any musical qualities in your post at all...
...multiple platinum sales several times...regularly nominated for prestigious awards
When I studied Arisotelian logic, that was called "Nose Counting" and is a logical falicy, simply because serveral (uneducated) people aggree, doesn't make something true. (or untrue)
Sadly, a lot of peopel hate success, and jealously deride both her and her fans.
Prove that that is the motive, until then, this is an ad hominem against those deriding her and fans.
Everyone makes mistakes, good teams try to find those before deployment.
Where was the testing? Who decided that there would be no testing? Who decided that they would simply deploy the thing with no plan B? Obviously the PHB, you just need to point that out to the VP and you can have the PHBs seat.
It's utterly pathetic that a distribution in this day and age would not only not have reiserfs support, but actually chose to remove it from future distributions!
Actualy, reiserfs sucks, it destorys data, completely. Every single file on my computer ended up in lost+found because of problems with reiserfs.
I think it's much better for you that you are moving your data off of reiser before a similar catastrophy befalls you
While I wouldn't agrue that RHEL is great, you should thank them for removing reiserfs support and thus forcing you to move to a better fs, may I suggest ext3 or even ext2, proven, stable FSs that don't chew up your life's work and spit it out.
Is it compatible with the XFree86 config files?
God knows we don't want to have to write another X server config file by hand after finaly getting one to work.
Or perhaps, X.org is just better so we won't have so much trouble.
I've not used X.org yet, so I can only ask others.
You Moron.
He means that your grammar is bad.
"Your" is possesive so "your naive" means "the naive that you own"
What you want is "You're" which is contracted from "You are" so that you mean "you are (You're) naive"
Specificaly, in Chinese (mandarin) it's "hanzi", the Chinese characters that you use to write that literaly mean, "chinese (han/kan)" "characters (zi/ji)" (in the format "ENGLISH (CHINESE/JAPANESE)") I'm sure you already know, but I think you should have included this info for the readers of your comment.;)

How far back is "recent"? And I was aparently under the mistaken impression that Shakespeare was English...:p
He scares me. although the rest of the article shows that they publicly disavow the use of nuclear weapons.
this is also interesting
(as an aside, but slightly related)
I hope people won't get the idea that I dislike Japan or the Japanese people, far from it. But I don't trust governments or corporations, be they American or Japanese, in fact, I might trust Japanese corporations more, once you have a job, you have it for life. And I've had mostly good experiances with individual Japanese, more per capita than I do with Americans.

the second paragraph was a joke.

"It Stinks!"
Isn't a video conference established by a direct connection between the two users?
So there will be no stress on their servers from the use of video conference.
So what service will they be charging for? use of the software? (pay to continue using that which you already have?)
