  1. hah, if Sun's sales were deflating before on EC Formally Objects To Oracle's Purchase of Sun · · Score: 1

    the FUD cloud grows black, Sun's credibility and sales are going totally down the shitter now

    actually, destructive flares that disturb the geomagnectic field enough to cause major disruptions are far more common than once a century. We've had those at least every 20 years.

    hey, while you're spending money to do that, why not also spend the small chump change it would take to harden our grid against EMP and geomagnetic disturbances?

  9. Re:BS: "tip of the iceberg" on Ryan Gordon Ends FatELF Universal Binary Effort · · Score: 1

    malware can be put into a package just as easily as in a raw executable.

    All the business linux installations I deal with have softwares installed from non-package sources, from major database, vpn and accounting vendors. The issue is whether a source can be trusted and has a verification fingerprint for their product. funny most of this stuff just has minimum dynamic library C version requirements, most runs after a distribution upgrade just fine.

    I'm sitting here running a citrix metaframe client on my Ubuntu box, that's worked across three years of upgrades and also on redhat and debian, only concern was a minimal motif version

    I have an anecdote for you, the four years I received a flu shot I didn't get the flu until the next March or April. And it happened all four times! So I consider them useless for me, just postpones influenza until the weather is much nicer. I'd rather have my flu when the snow is piled high and its below freezing thanks

  18. Doubts Raised About Legal Status of OSI on Doubts Raised About Legal Soundness of GPL2 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    better story: OSI attempts earth-shaking announcement about GPL to draw attention away from fact that their status as nonprofit in California is suspended. Perhaps it was due to failure to file required tax documents (for California and U.S. IRS) for many years, that issue was discussed on Bruce Peren's now-defunct site Technocrat

  20. Re:Conspiracy? on Doubts Raised About Legal Soundness of GPL2 · · Score: 1

    they are kind of meta-vendors, their focus is on marketing open source and try to make a model for its development. Many on the traditional FSF side including OSI founders disagree with current OSI direction. Some might claim this is a ploy to justify their existence, stay relevant, and wresting more control of open source from the dominant player the FSF.

    actually, the number of retiring people who are invalids is statistically insignificant when considering load on earth's resources. the major problem is people just like you. so if you could kindly "take one for the team", so to speak, and better yet snuff a couple of your friends before you check out, we the remaining population will be most grateful.
