  1. Re:Open Source zealots on FSF, Political Activism or Crossing the Line? · · Score: 1

    When you get paid by people who greatly profit from X, and you advocate X, you are less credible than someone who advocates X, Y, or Z on their own. Simple logic. Has nothing to do with objectionability.

  2. Re:Most big "foreign" software vendors are US on Governments, Beyond the Open Source Hype · · Score: 1

    Not for any local government(and there are a lot of these in the US) other than Washington's and Redmond's. And for the national government, until Bush exits we have more pressing things to deal with.

  3. Re:Teen Girl Squad: on Slashdot CSS Redesign Winner Announced · · Score: 3, Funny

    ARROWED!

  4. Re:Hmmm ... on Illumio to Launch Social Network Advice Software · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    If anything, Slashdot is 'broken' by GNAA pieces of crap like you.

  5. Re:So What? on Open Source Game Development · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Not only is my dick bigger, I also compile all my software!

    Mod parent -1 "Use paragraphs".

  7. Re:Liberal Estimate on BSA Claims 35% of Software is Pirated · · Score: 1
    Let's see your list of fallacies, now?
    • Using the "mods-hate-me" tactic in your sig. Fallen off of Pons Asinorum Primus(#1).
    • Painting all /.ers with one brush. Your existence proves that. Fallen off of Pons Asinorum Secundus(#2).
    • Using the repeatedly-trotted-out "GPL double standard" argument. Fallen off of Pons Asinorum Tertius(#3). Read this, you might learn something.
    • No, wait, that's it. But three Pontes Asinorum in such a short post...makes me wonder if you have much logic in you.

    I'd say it's something like iTunes minus the DRM. (And it has to be as easy to use as iTunes.)

  9. Re:I only got this far... on Google's Insular Nature · · Score: 1

    Wow, you must not be programmed very well to segfault on something like that. Good AI should recognize the impossible and self-check for coding errors.

  10. Re:Why is this news? on Google's Insular Nature · · Score: 1

    Google is different. Which other company has supported open-source products?

  11. Re:Death sentence an option? on Teens Arrested in MySpace Extortion Scam · · Score: 1

    Only on one of the internets(on which there have been rumors) was that banned. This is on the other one.

    Wikipedia is your friend. (I already knew what a jumpsuit was, but not a shifter)

    And I thought education was bad here in the South...

  14. Re:Freedom and Cost on U.S. Pressures ISPs on Data Retention · · Score: 1

    Well, someone who is injured in a crash generally doesn't drive well right after the injury...

  15. Re:TAX AND SPEND TAX AND SPEND!!! on U.S. Pressures ISPs on Data Retention · · Score: 2, Informative

    The Republicans aren't tax and spend. That would be far too nice of them. The Republicans are borrow and spend. At least with tax and spend it doesn't fuck up the children by putting the burden of the debt on them.

  16. Re:Bram Cohen on BitTorrent's Bram Cohen against Network Neutrality · · Score: 1

    You must be an idiot to think I would click on a GNAA link.

  17. Re:Net Neut Nuts, please read this on BitTorrent's Bram Cohen against Network Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Cato is a libertarian think-tank. Trusting it over...just about everyone else excluding AT&T and Cisco is stupid.

  18. Re:Nazi IS as Nazi DOES. on A DNA Database For All U.S. Workers? · · Score: 1

    Eleven million. You're only counting the Jews. There were about five million non-Jews killed in the Holocaust.

    Reupblic is defined, again simply, as "rule by officials in lue of the people", or something like that.
    Literally, "public thing".

    Last I checked, you can't be naturalized if you're already a citizen.

    No, 2+2=3. You have committed thoughtcrime. Miniluv will be with you shortly.

    Yes. That way people would stop using it once everyone gets all their money stolen.

    Last I checked, none of those companies were competing with Microsoft when they were monopolies.
