Ok so I go to http://www.caldera.com/ibmlawsuit/ and see the two rows of icons titled "2003" and "2004", with a comment: "Roll mouse over timeline icons to see summary of each document. Click on icon to view document."
I hover the mouse over the icons, but wtf? Nothing happens? I take a peek at HTML source (made easy by Firefox's excellent "view selection source" feature) and what do I see?
These idiots think that if "alt=" pops up a description in Internet Explorer, then so it does in other browsers. (No it does not, HTML standards says you need title= for that)
Now this is the website of the company who thinks it owns Unix.
Amusing... a article describing IPv6, an open standard, was created with Microsoft Frontpage 3.0.

Would you believe it? Microsoft basically helps popularise Linux. Not being a firm, an organization or a person, Linux can't spend money on ads. Microsoft helps it with its FUD campaigns, each of which is immediately proven bogus. People get to see what Linux and Microsoft are really all about.
So, if nowadays we believe an ideal wife is one who is pretty, intelligent, and good at cooking*, are our children going to deprecate one of these virtues in favor of "good at Linux"?:)
* I'm not sure if that's a Russians' perception only or worldwide standard

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_(disambiguation) :
The term Moon refers, among other things, to:
1. The Earth's only natural satellite, the Moon.
2. A common term for other natural satellites.
Thanks! That really cleared things up for me.
When "open source" is used as an adjective, don't you have to put a hyphen there?
Open source is a good thing.
So is open-source software.
Firefox is a free, open-source web browser.

"Oh, Americans learn the metric system in school, they just don't use it."
Why not, I wonder? Everyone else does.
Most of us here are acquainted with the Jargon File, I suppose.
