  1. Re:But only 17% currently use it on Interest in Embedded Linux Remains Low · · Score: 1

    OP said
    So, reading this backwards, a third of embedded systems developers are interested in embedded Linux and/or expect to be using it soon.
    (emphasis mine). Not that 33% currently use it.

    If "rip-off" is "breaking license terms", as the other posts imply, then you an also rip-off BSD-licensed code. The license template from OSI states (in part, last clause and disclaimer omitted)

    And capitalism is by definition not a system, it is liberty.

    Have you ever played NWN:HOtU? It's a world where your actions may change peoples attitude towards you, and where you can choose many ways to accomplish the same goal. Quite unlike Diablo, where the only choises is how you kill the bad guys (sword or magic?).

  8. Re:US vs. ROW version on MS Gives 60-Day Deadline to Web Devs · · Score: 1

    Ehh, whitch part do you claim is untrue? The part about MS having to make different versions (untrue, since they'll probably just shove the crippled US version down anyone's throat), or the part about the rest of the world not recognising software patents?
    Because while the second is inaccurate, it holds some truth as well. Here in Norway, for example, software patents are not recognised.

    ehhm, that's what the GP wrote.

    That's what's realøy scary about corporations. They're only accoutable to the shareholders, ie the money.

    Someone eventually getting around to changing that line: priceless.

    You know Norway is not socialistic, right?
    Starting last fall, we do have a social-democratic government, but we didn't when DVD Jon surfaced.

    In stead of giving up on it, why didn't you just downgrade, decrypt, and upgrade again?

    Well, perhaps they just take care to do so in a country where the patents don't apply?

    no, he's not. I quote from GP:
    Unfortunately, Blizzard refuses to talk about the issue. If they won't even talk to the customer they have a disagreement with, then that customer may have to force them to tell their side in court.
  21. Re:(Don't) Call Your Congressman! on The Pirate Bay is Here to Stay? · · Score: 1

    No, communism is not an economic system. I think it speaks volumes about the mindset capitalism creates that most people belives that.
    Planned economy is the name of the economic system used by as far as I know all states that have called themselves communists.

    Communism is a political system, like democracy. Planned economy is an economic system, like caitalism. There's no god-given rule I know of that says democracy can't use planned economy, and Sovjet (yes, I know they were communists only in name) never got completely rid of capitalism.

    With fossil fuel, you pay only for extracting and refining. With soy diesel, you also pay for growing.
