Wow. You're the first person I've ever seen acknowledge the problem of having one person running / associate with company A being on the board of company B. We need laws preventing this sort of thing.
These people seem like they are busy trying to take us back to the "good" old days of kings, feudal lords, and private empires. And spending $100m to taint Linux a little more (through SCO) is pocket change to them. Scary.
You have a point. But on the other hand, Google doesn't try to keep Google Earth it a damned secret like the government is with this sateelite, which to me, is a clear sign they were going to use to use it for ill.
Linux is for people who hate Windows. BSD is for people who love Unix.
I honestly beleive the first part of that phrase is alot of the problem. Until developers get past the OMG Winbloze sux, and stop going out of there way to make everything as non Windows like as possible, just for the sake of making it as non Windows like as possible becasue of some personal prejdice.
To me, it's like politics. Microsoft's developers are the Republicans, Linux Developers are like the democrates. One is doing this, and the other will immediately go and do the opposite, simply becasue the are the other guy.
Actually, they were real instruments. Just sampled, compressed, and had the bit rate reduced so it wouldn't take up alot of space. SNES music is akin to the Amiga MOD.

Game developers just focus on making games that don't suck?
What happened to all the fun tags?
This sounds like a job for The Onion.
It ain' over yet. And then there are the after affects.
I don't have any mod points, so I give you an honorary funny.
Looks like the Wapanese have modded you down. :D
Maybe he was using the leg of a chair.
Not if we slip em a Ben or three.

British Columbia is not in the US. Unless Canada itself has a DHS.
Wonder how long it is before the right starts screaming about activist judges.

You're just now discovering this?
Anonymous is not your personal army.
Which is why this is propping up. It's like the Micky Mouse protection acts that have been passed here in the US.
You over estimate the ages of most Slashdotters.

Should we stop creating American Idols too? I'm willing to use liberal interpretation to put and end to that.
We supply the money. The Indians supply the cheap labor.

As well as any dog or set of curtains...
The sad thing is, there are people who seriously think this is a problem in the US.
You know, maybe that's the point. to get them riled up and maybe, just maybe, write their Congressman. They're more likely to react strongly.
Only in America can someone with the last name 'SWINDLE' get appointed to something called the Federal TRADE Commission.
