    Well to be honest if you're not tapping out an HTTP response in 1s and 0s for each request you should be banned from Slashdot. Only the real nerds can hang out here.

    That should be have been Wikipedia not Qikipedia

    D'oh

  14. Re:The GPL: Intellectual Theft on GPLv2 Vs. GPLv3 · · Score: 5, Informative

    Support for my statement above: GPL on Qikipedia From the link:
    Non-GPL'd and non-free software can be developed with GPL'd tools The program must be GPL only if it includes GPL source code or it is linked with a GPL library. For example, using gcc to compile proprietary software is allowed.

  15. Re:The GPL: Intellectual Theft on GPLv2 Vs. GPLv3 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Furthermore, after reviewing this GPL our lawyers advised us that any products compiled with GPL'ed tools - such as gcc - would also have to its source code released. This was simply unacceptable.
    This is wrong - source code for programs compiled under gcc or smilar DOES NOT have to be released

  21. HD DVD or Blu-ray adoption will take longer on Will Hybrid Players End the Format War? · · Score: 1
    From the summary:

    "DVD players needed over a decade to supersede the VCR in the living rooms of the United States and there is little reason to believe that HD DVD and Blu-ray player adoption will outpace that of the DVD"
    If anything they will take longer. When DVDs were introduced they offered some real advantages: high quality, random access, smaller and more durable than a VHS tape... What does HD DVD or Blu-ray offer that is actually of any use to your average consumer to justify the price?
