"In what way does this make fun of the bombing victims?"
There is no valid reason that could be given to justify those action. Also its an embarssement that one of the biggest peacefull event on the planet would be name and associated with those murders and it even worst when the fact is that it would blame other nations who I am sure are not in anyway shape or form related to the murderers who commited those reprhensible acts.
" Here's my point: the original post was making fun of the people who did the bombing, not the victims. "
No , your point , is that your support a racist comment , because in your view and failed values they where making fun of some nation you dont particulary like. Pick any one of the nation who lost the olympic bids ( Paris ( France ) as well as Madrid ( Spain ), Moscow ( Russia ) and New York ( United States ).
" So in what way is it offensive to the victims of the bombings? "
Your more concerned about making a racist comment then going or asking for justice.
" read the fuckin' comment "
I read the entire thread.
"before you took offence."
I am no offensed by it , I simply pointed the fact that your a Racis sexist arseholes.
"you just saw someone making a comment that wasn't "oh no this is a tragedy this is all blair's fault "
Now your going to blame the Britain Prime Minister opposition too... and make me as someone who care if someone dont blame him , personnaly my intervention as to do with your racist aproval of the GP post. I just hate racist.
"You are a hypersensitive whiner."
Its you who is a racist and sexist moron and in agreement with the racist comment , not me.
Calling someone "a pussy" is sexist and saying that the french where behind this is racist... Anyone who as a minimum of real understanding about those two words ( this obviously dont mean you , at all ) can see what is meant in my reply.
"I know you are French"
No , I am a real American From CANADA.
" and are thus the target of the original joke"
There whas no joke , hence my reply and point.
"People, and probably... are despicable?"
The two are unrelated , one is remebering the deceased and good times and someone you knew , the other is a racist comment about people who died in a murdering action. I can make the disertion between the two , I guess you cant.
"James AD Joyce, who will be added to my friends list, is correct "
People who are alike support each others , I guess you proove that theory once again as right.
" you are an embarrassment to your country."
Really , I dont think my country appreciate people who laugh at the murder of innocent and who make racist jokes about it. Its a Real American thing , you cant understand it.
"The French have it bad enough "
Another racist comment based on your obvious lack of education and current knowledge , BTW London aint in France...
"masking knee-jerk nationalism "
As I said I am a Real American , from CANADA.
"thinly veiled moral 'highhorsing'"
There is no morality discussion here , you and your friend are racist arseholes and he is sexist too.
Windows is so insecure , monopolistic and closed to legal open development that GNU/Linux add to be created.
The hardware maker invest milions if not billion in software for windows , when all the GNU/Linux ask is for the right spec and the documentation so that we can make the driver...
No , not at all , They where in Judicial protection , someone whas playing with there stock and some of there former deal made by incompetent Manager ( Poole , Le Marois ) where being owed and they where unable to repay them at that time also they where getting sued for the use of the name Mandrake.
Judicial protection is 2 step above bankrupty protection.
"but what I've heard, their desktop was even better"
No not at all...
"I hope they decide to do business under the Lycoris trade name. "
Why would they switch name to a loosing company name when they have one evrybody knows by now...
No , Red Hat for one dont have a tangible source of revenue , all there profit come from the use of there 3.2 Billion IPO that they use to make 150 million in profit yearly ( thats really bad when you have 3.2 billion ) and dont forget there 600 million debenture.
What is Google ?
For one its the best online Internet advertiser ever , if you think news site ( CNN) and online paper (New york Times online ) have something to show Google think again.
Thats only the tip of the iceberg , I am waiting for there first full financial year review and shareolder meeting disclosure to see what else they have in there.
So all in all you obviously clueless about what you discuss , and if your responsible of anyone savings or financial futur I only have one word for them RUN AND SWITCH TO SOMEBODY ELSE ! your loosing money listening to this person.
I tought "God" whas to be holy in any language , and that he is present everywhere and to everyone... And that is name is to be revered and shared amongs all humans.
"religious custom."
Personaly . I think , its just racism disguised under the false pretense of religious customs. It goes right there with the fanatics who are killing in the name of God , when God love and cherish life.
No , because OSS came first , invented everything, and got ripped and there software stolen du to the open source only license by the proprietary until GNU/GPL and copyleft came along. Otherwsie the proprietary would sue the OSS software for copying.
Recently I have come to the conclusion that most people perceive the FSF description as something other then what it is , even myself I whas in that category of people.
The FSF is a "Political" group of people who gets to decide what software get the mention Free software certification by FSF. They absolutely do not base there descision on the merits and quality of software or there license , but on what political views and favor they support at this momment in time.
I dont think that the Nokia issue is really a big problem people see them coming a mile away.
But the fact that many software license which are certified Free Software when in fact in there design it allow for the closing of the source code and removal of the basic freedom which are at the core of the FSF and this for us all and that this is acepted by the politcal body controlling the FSF at this time in my opinion is absolutely wrong.
Many people knew me as one of the most vocal defender of the FSF and OSI , but in recent years both group have became politcal body instead of defender of rights of the users and access to the code.
When the OSI allow for many license to close the source code in there design I think that its absolutely wrong that they are certified and called Open Source, I view this iin the same way as a murder law which is illegal inside the country but when your outside of the limit of the country you can kill your neighboor for any reason , for me its absolutely wrong , allowing the closing of the code for Open Source is the absolute opposite of what The OSI stands for and is supposed to be certifying.
When the FSF allow for many license to remove the basic rights for which the FSF stands for and allow them to be certified and called Free Software it become a mockery of the principle and of the value that is perceived as the basis for the FSF very existance.
Bot license are missing some final and decisive wording , both have the same flaw, those words which are missing : AT ALL TIME.
The Fact that those word are not in the description that The OSI and FSF use for there certification allow for a real problem which allow cetification of license which are absolutely the opposite of what those groups stand for and are supposed to protect.
By this text I encourage everyone to refuse the Current FSF and OSI certification as they are political motivated scam of what they really stand for.
I myself refute the validity of both certification at this period in time as the description they use is politicaly motivated and not based on the defense and protection of the right those two certification are suppose to be protecting.
Free Software certification should be given to free software who are Free Software at all time , not just when some people decide they would like it to be.
Open Source certification should be given to Open Source software who are Open Source at all time , not just when some people decide they would like it to be.
Sorry for the disturbance , but I am making you aware of something absolutely wrong in my view. And shall continue to do so every time I see a posting refering to the FSF and OSI as I belive them to be politcal scammer at this moment in time.
Its Gnu/Linux and thats why all so called Unix are replaced by it.
"It is currently being replaced in my environment by Solaris 10 and OpenBSD."
Yes when your the sole administrator of 2 box you have complete control over what is used.
"comparing Linux to OS X is like comparing a Hyundai to an Acura. "
Comparing an OS to a simple kernel... I have to agree on that one.
"the Acura is more comfortable and at the end of 100k miles the Acura still works."
Yes , just like GNU/Linux.
"Nobody cares.. are YOU following?"
No , because everyone that mathers care , your just really irrelevant;-)
"The only people who care are open source fanboys."
You mean everyone right ?;-)
"We even gave Redhat AS a shot in production. It didn't make the cut."
No because the problem would be the administrator who are incompetents fool...
Nope , Real American here , I am A Canadian , Unlike the whannabe "of America" , where it:

Your Racist and sexist too , Sorry I as a human being find it despicable when others laugh at the death of other human beeings.
Ha , yes , the racist excuse of they started first , BTW , I am sure you mean Etats-Unians.
Thanks for prooving my point
Its not humour its racism , its even shameles and very distatefull to make such a comment.
People died , there is absolutely nothing funny from this event or the comment the made in this thread.
