  1. Re:Flirting? on McAfee, Macromedia Flirting With F/OSS Community · · Score: 2, Funny

    You are definitely European, not American, aren't you?

  2. Re:Oh crap. on McAfee, Macromedia Flirting With F/OSS Community · · Score: 1

    McAfee may have thought about this for some time, but check out the Macromedia - announcing getting in Linux business day after the news about advancing works over GPLFlash v2. Coincidence? Yeah right.

  3. Re:So secure on Spoofing Flaw Resurfaces in Mozilla Browsers · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    So, I wonder whether you'll be moderated down as Flamebait or Offtopic? Because if I had mod points, I couldn't decide for quite a while. Maybe both.

  4. Re:Within 15 Minutes? WTF on Linux Kernel Gets Fully Automated Test · · Score: 5, Informative

    because they are nightly builds, that is - versions with applied patch, but untested yet.

  5. Re:the real question on IBM Plans to Open the Cell Processor · · Score: 1

    And then imagine a Beowulf cluster of these Cells!

  6. Re:Declare your bias, why don't you? on OpenBSD 3.7 Reviewed · · Score: 3, Insightful

    He talks about the licensing issues. Which drives me to the question: what's the logic behind throwing away Apache 2 (because of too restrictive license) and distributing closed-source wireless drivers at the same time?

  7. Re:This is great and all on Social Bookmarking Services Revisited · · Score: 1

    Very simple: you check only links of great popularity OR collected by your friends.

  8. Re:She? on Cockroach-Controlled Robot · · Score: 1

    Yes, but do they run Linux?

  9. Funny... on mod_perl 2.0.0 Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Almost all of the comments criticizing Perl have been modded "Troll". Slashdot authors getting touchy?

  10. Re:Magneto on Gates Releases Details on New Mobile OS · · Score: 5, Funny

    If they'd really used this naming scheme, most Windows version should be named WinWTF.

  11. Let me... on Gates Releases Details on New Mobile OS · · Score: 0, Troll

    Yes, but does it run Linux?

    Oh, wait...

  12. Re:A question for RMS on RMS Weighs in on BitKeeper Debacle · · Score: 1

    I wrote Emacs, you insensitive clod!

  13. Well, what a surprise on Freeciv-2.0.0 Stable Released · · Score: 1

    Link to open-source game site posted on /. without any mirrors. Guess what's happened to the server?

  14. Congratulations editors! on New Releases for Debian and SUSE · · Score: 3, Funny

    Direct link to ISO file on Slashdot main site. Let the slashdotting begin!

  15. Re:DNF on Hurd/L4 Developer Marcus Brinkmann Interviewed · · Score: 1

    Mod parent +1: cruel, funny and brilliantly sarcastic.

  16. What Effect? on Holy LEGO Blocks, Batman! · · Score: 1

    Congratulations, dudes. Posting almost-direct link to the trailer on main /. will surely... oh damn, wait! The site's still up! Are they a part of OSTG too?

  17. From TFSite on Opensource Apple Lossless Decoder Released · · Score: 1

    Download & Changelog:

    * 0.1.0 - March 5, 2005: Initial release. Download Now!
    MD5: f554fc11ee41a30bc5baf15a0fd07256

    Confusing 1.0 with 0.1.0 - way to go, editors! Would like to write more, but gone compiling new 6.11 Linux kernel.

  18. Re:What is this? on Part 2 of Ruby on Rails Tutorial Online · · Score: 1

    You can always use Google. Ever heard of that tool? If not, check out Ruby on Rails Site.

  19. Re:Drops? on Mozilla Drops Support for International Domains · · Score: 1

    Don't worry, if you want browser supporting it AND turned on by default, I'm sure you should read previous news ;).

  20. Re:I nominate (obligatory /. joke) on FreeBSD Announces Contest To Replace Daemon Logo · · Score: 1

    BSD was dying in '98, it's gotta be dead by now, right? =)

    Netcraft hasn't confirmed it yet, so watch out with these assumptions.

  21. Re:Wouldn't it be better? on Microsoft to Buy Anti-Virus Software Firm · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You obviously haven't read the summary:
    The article states that Microsoft is thinking about charging for their anti-virus and anti-spyware software.

  22. Re:Credibility on Windows Longhorn Beta for June Release · · Score: 0, Redundant

    So what makes this June Release by one Microsoft executive more believable than other announcements?

    They don't announce including Duke Nukem Forever with this LHorn release.

  23. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    By "forcing" I mean bashing for not following The Path of GNU. And it IS bad, why - well, /. comments are not the place for discussing "why GPL is (not) good for everything".

    And yes, these are connected and part of a single argument - which follow the statement don't bash proprietary software and commercial licenses, if you want it the clear way.

  24. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    No, what I'm saying is that forcing everyone (especially companies) to release all their product under GPL and only GPL is just plain bad and there should be commercial licenses available to buy for developing proprietary soft.

  25. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    Well, if you think it's bad (requiring license for developing "proprietary commercial software", as written on Trolltech site), I think you read too many RMS interviews recently.

    (yes, you can mod this one troll and flamebait, I don't care, OSS zealots!)
