I think that the USA is the next Britain and that the next "SUPER POWER" is going to be China.
And Microsoft is going to be the next IBM.
And that Linux is going to be the next Microsoft... done the correct way of course.
And Barack Obama will be the next Kim Campbell.
(Yes, you will have to probably google her if you are not Canadian.)
I just hope that when he doesn't solve the economic crisis and "all of the worlds problems" that they don't blame him, the 'first black president' (or the first white-ish president)...
I hope the American people are smart enough to realize that Bush has buried them deeeep into the sh*t hole and that it will take a while to dig out of it.
As a Canadian, i am wondering if he would even have been into the Race for President if he had been a BLACK man instead of a "white guy with a tan".
This is not intended to be flaming... just a question. My father remembers walking into a restaurant in the states to go to the washroom and seeing an "out of order" sign on the door was told by the owner that that was just to keep the "negroes" out.
Just a question.
Does this mean that when i try to access their servers i will no longer be greeted with:
"Hello Professor... would you like to play a nice game of 'surf pron'?"
open source will not go away: it can't. I have source code and will give it away if anyone wants it.
Microsoft may go away (if we truly are the most intelligent species on earth, which is VERY debatable from where i stand, working in retail, but open source?
No.
There are too many people who have a vested interest in being great, wonderful people instead of chair throwing idiots, or (sarcasm) philanthropists (Bill Gates are you listening) to have open source go away.
Before Trudeau, we pretty much had balanced budgets.
To get re-elected (ie: buy votes), he spent money and borrowed.
He used our credit cards to buy us goodies, and we were to stupid (naive) back then to understand that "great uncle Pierre" who was buying us all these goodies was actually putting us into deep debt. If any single man wrecked this country it was Pierre "give em the finger, fuddle duddle" Trudeau, the worst Prime Minister Canada has ever had.
(No pirouette being done here.)
Just because an ad is being talked about does not make it effective...
The "Where's the beef?" commercial years ago was a great commercial... an old lady asking where the beef is.
The only problem was that, although people were talking about it, no one could remember what product the commercial was for and did not generate the needed sales.
After a while, it was pulled and Wendy's did other things... (yes, being a business student who had been studying marketing, i remember the product).
If you knew a child molester who was convicted time after time, wouldn't you want their release to be monitored?
Microsoft breaks laws all the time, but we should be saying monitoring them is scary?
GIVE ME A BREAK!
If you repeatedly commit a crime you deserve to be monitored (and chemically if not actually neutered). Just 2 more cents.

Oh MAN, it's not gnu/Linux compatible... it's no wonder slashdotters aren't getting any!

...that will not infringe on the PgUp/PgDwn patent?
Allow / Deny
I guess the land of the free in North America is either Canada or Mexico?
And people say that there is no reason for Bush to have been an implicit part of 911... here is just another reason.
Control.
Oh man... that just made me chuckle... that would be sweet!!
goatse!

You know, i heard somewhere that BSD is dying....

YEA STEVE BALLDER!
(what do you mean: Filter error: Don't use so many caps. It's like YELLING.)
I'm yelling to make a point, so it's appropriate!
1,2,3: ALL TOGETHER NOW: YES!!! and i think i hear richard stallman clapping with one hand.

No, it's Uranus and it wants Montezuma's revenge!
KFC called... PETA's order is ready.
Yeah, but a hand in the bush is worth 2 of ...sorry, lost my train of thought.
Yeah, i think it's funny (sad) to see OJ now.
pathetic.
They got him off... in my books (or, i guess in OJ's books) that is first rate.
Even if you are scum.
Like a first-rate defense attorney, the book defends the industry against its charges... is there a glove small enough to not fit an airplane NOR O.J?

Have you seen Battlefield Earth? One of the worst movies ever? The bad guys lose... sorry, did i spoil the ending for you?
Screw Buffy (or, rather, that cute red head lesbian), bring on the Firefly game! Much more interested in it than Buffy.
No, but they have vibrating, battery operated toys, so they get by... hey!, just like your average slashdotter!
That's what she said!
But only in my mind.

Wow! Consensus between a linux user and a windows user!

Now there's a Slashdot headline!
