  1. Re:Open source is benefiting from anti-US sentimen on Malaysian Government Prefers Open Code · · Score: 1

    As a foreigner, I can hardly say being against current US government policies which does things even Chris Carter (X Files) couldn't imagine, is anti patriotic.

    For the record and as a sensor how many Fox News fans are moderators now ;), being against that awful government which literally fucked up your image at World _is_ PATRIOTIC.

    "You are probably confusing an entire country with a few zany speeches by former Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir."

    To prove your point you don't need to blame that guy.

    I have read his speeches since he is well known intellectual too, I didn't see ANY anti american sentiment.

    BTW, I try to make my point in non native english, in "Fox", "Haaretz" and W. Bush english, you can of course read them "anti american" ;)

    ".. in the Islamic countries to try "

    I ended reading your post has been modded up by people like you.

    I can't understand you guys... At least you use IRC for trolling ;)

    Malaysia CAN'T be called Islamic country. They have hundreds of different communities there. To make it simple, I like chatting on a malaysian populated network, didn't see a single muslim malaysian yet... Also, if I see, I don't think they would like to be called "islamic" country/government.

    MS is USA? IMHO they passed that point long time ago. They only pay taxes to USA. Its a multi national, aka global, monopolistic, dark giant which ALL governments, including USA government tries to have a bit distance away. They have grown so big that I believe governments started to get afraid.

    Believe, those "asians" as you would call, aren't that clueless.

    people in media, even from Istanbul like me, knows what Alan Smithee is

    I was consultant for the TV channel for some movie buys at Cannes. We needed USA movies to air at 2 am for some reason, we bought "his" movies. Well he didn't exist of course :) We figured the freaks at 2 am wanted such freaky stuff from mails we got. Well, I watched alien snakefish who speaks with humans at 7 am, this morning, its normal :)

    Believe Steve Jobs or Apple knows what that name is.

    Thank you for contacting RealNetworks Technical Support.

    As I understand from reading your e-mail, RealPlayer 10 for Mac OS X crashes when you try to play a clip from the Interent.

    To troubleshoot the issue, verify that your computer meets the system requirements, reset the RealPlayer 10 preferences and perform a clean installation of RealPlayer 10 for Mac OS X.

    To perform the steps please refer to the article at the link given below.

    Title: Why does RealPlayer 10 for Mac OS X freeze or quit unexpectedly?

    No wonder I did it much before that jerk who can't spell internet right suggested. I mailed back saying it works but should I do that thing 5 times a day...

    If I was kind of a guy who bought real player 10 (via subscription) for support, I'd easily give up.

    Hansoft acquired them lately, biggest sw house in South Korea I heard... As I remember early versions of Thinkfree was working inside browser even and knowing how freaky fast lines Koreans have... :) Seems they have a plan to make it work inside with latest Sun Java as well...
