Because it is touted as 'free as in freedom' but comes with restrictions. BSD fits that motto better as I can do anything I want with BSD code. GPL is only free as in no cost to purchase.
Everything you say is true. My issue with GPL is that they call it 'free as in freedom' This is clearly not true. That should be the motto for BSD. GPL is more like free as in no cost to purchase, bit it is not free in the non monetary sense given the restrictions that come with it.
Their motto is free as in freedom, but comes with restrictions. If they want to call their software free then their motto should b e free as in no cost of purchase. But it clearly is NOT free as in freedom.
Basically GPL is a violation of my rights to publ,ish source code and make money off of it. No one has the right to force me to release my developed code for free. It is a companies right to protect their IP and GPL prevents that. All free softare if truly free should be GPL.
GPL is really another word for socialist run software development.
Well since you are so paranoid, I'd like to point out that Ontario Canada generates over 200 times the nuclear generation capacity of Florida, and it's right next door to NH !
Yes. And if you dont want anyone breaking into your house, only put in an OUT door and cut the IN door. lol - you do realize internet lines are not only one way, right?
You also have to acknowledge the fact that our grandparents simply were not "jet setters" of any sort. It didn't matter if it was a 707 or Concorde or even some prop driven job. Air travel was simply not within their means.
Also since the 707 was the primary means of flight in the 60's and 70's, the use of 'granparents' is even more unlikely. Genreally it would be parents, not grandparents that would have flown on that airplane.
The OP was talking about getting headaches on his computer in 3D. The new fil was being shot at an increased framerate to enable better 2D to 3D conversion which the OP was stating was not the issue for his headaches, and I agree. I was giving him a technical reason why this is so.
Wait what? I'm not getting headaches because of the frame rate... People get headaches at 60FPS on their computers
You are correct - you get headaches because of the DirectX method of making the left and right scenes. On DirectX this is done by rotating and translating the viewpoint (toe in rendering) which results in a parallax on the projection plane, and eye strain. The correct non-headache way of doing this is to do an off axis rendering which requires asymmetric camera frustums that DirectX does not support. OpenGL does support this but only on the high end cards with quad frame buffers. (moderators, NO this is NOT a slam against DirectX - this is fact).
Hmm. Nazi Germany. Totalitarian dictatorship with only one ruling party. Therefore by definition any German living in Germany during this period were by default, Nazis. Note that I did NOT say that everyone agreed, supported or even knew about the atrocities committed, any more than every American knew of or agreed with frying 200k Japanese civilians with a nuclear bomb. Get your facts correct.
Nazi is a lot easier to write than 'fat teenage cyber terrorist criminals with no concept of how free market works because they never get out of their moms basement and are only doing this because they are pissed they cannot easily pirate movies and music'. Nazi has a better ring to it.
His statement was once he buys something he can do whatever he wants with it. I'm merely pointing out additional things that are true if he really believes his statement. If he doesn't believe in these things, then his statement is clearly false.
A sit in is passive by nature. Passive resistance. These jackasses are doing real damage and costing real money. They're more like those morons that run around smashing windows and burning down businesses when they are pretending they are actually protesting something.
So if you don't like it then don't buy their products!!! Not liking what they do doesn't justify vigilante attacks on the company. And if you believe it does then you must also believe the attacks on Sept 11 were justified and ok because the terrorists were obviously just demonstrating their displeasure against the US government that in their opinion doesn't play by the rules.
Slashdot Mirror
If it was free, that payback should be optional as in BSD, not forced as in GPL.
Now THATS a strawman argument!!
Read it. Socialist drivel.
Huge binaries and ridiculously long compile times?? No thanks.

Agreed. Then is isn't free as in freedom then is it?

So what you are saying is GPL is not free. They should be prevented from classifying it as such.
Ok I'll start!

Glad to be living on the seacoast in NH.

Agreed - the use of 'grandparents' flying on 707s is unlikely. Th 707 was a parents generation, not grandparents.

He said he can do whatever he wants. My comments DO apply.
Your arguments dont make any sense and are not relevant to the conversation. Please educate yourself before you protest against them.
His statement was once he buys something he can do whatever he wants with it. I'm merely pointing out additional things that are true if he really believes his statement. If he doesn't believe in these things, then his statement is clearly false.

Ok so if you dont like Nazi, what would you call them. And they are not anarchists by any stretch of the meaning.
So if you don't like it then don't buy their products!!! Not liking what they do doesn't justify vigilante attacks on the company. And if you believe it does then you must also believe the attacks on Sept 11 were justified and ok because the terrorists were obviously just demonstrating their displeasure against the US government that in their opinion doesn't play by the rules.
Oh please. Sony is my captor because I like one of their products? You're such a moron.
