Bingo. They don't want the guys who want 95-120k a year, they want to guys who'll be happy with 25-35k a year and work 12 hour days. They should start making games...

And this is why linux will never win the desktop of corporations. Anytime there is criticism, it's too easy to just throw up your hands and say: "eh? whaddaya want, it's free"
Where one camp say: "Listen, Office is in fact demonstrably better than any Free(tm) alternative," and the other says: "Nobody needs all that functionality anyway."
hey "dude' instead of bitching about someone's choice of solder, try doing something useful. This guy made an IDE mod for DS. He's way 1337er than you. so STFU.

He's not driving to work in pollution credits, he's driving in a more economical car. He's saving money doing it too. And with the money he saves, he's buying pollution credits.

"Data.gov is paving the way for citizens to become more /enraged/ with their government"
Who the hell celebrates a "26th" anniversary?
You must be a linux noob and are simply doing it wrong. (/sarcasm)
The article is about Apple.. so I'm going to guess you think OSX is lean on resources, and a great user experience?
Give me a break... and take your spinning beachballs with you.
And yet I get the feeling you voted for him twice...
There are other game mechanics besides twitch "sniper headshot" precision. Just an FYI.

Or how about Tool: Vicarious
...along with almost 3000 US soldiers, and 50,000 Iraqis, whose sentences have already been carried out.
We always hear about you Americans and your Second Amendment, and your right to bear arms.
If your government is run by tyrants, why don't your precious militia's do something about it?

People who keep trying to equate copyright infringement with theft ought to be ignored.
Unfortunately, they have lots of money, and lots of influence, so we have to be careful.
What's wrong with using a little humour to illustrate his point?
So this means they won't have to bother pushing for all that new DRM right?!? Right??

But that's par for the course here.
It sure is a good thing you didn't bother hooking your computers up with 10BaseT, or even 100BaseT... They're so.... yesterday.
Apache isn't working properly for them?
It's too bad they didn't go with an open source solution that they could custom tailor..
