You see, he was pointing out that the GP was sarcastically pointing out the joke of the OP ( being that the OPs comment was inherently self-contradictory ) whilst generalizing the GPs sarcastic joke identifying behavior and himself making a truism stating that all jokes posted to Slashdot are without exception explained and thus deferring his statement to the assertion initially given.
Naturally this itself harbors strongly a possibility and great likelihood of recursive self-contradiction that when read would cause the readers mind to implode forming a black hole that would eventually consume the greater part of our side of the Milky Way.
Luckily this will never happen as all jokes on Slashdot are, in fact, pointed out hence lowering the possibility and risk associated with the potentially head-imploding self-recursion to an absolute minimum.
Acronym finder has obviously been either trolled, as I'm sure you were doing here, or adds anything submitted that matches the letters.

Most of the people using the term to mean `... Linux...' online appear to be referring to other people that use the term that way instead of using it like that themselves. The other people, you know. Both of them.
I knew you were be facetious, I was mostly just chiming into the line noise. However. I disagree on your second statement. Slashdot may be rife with silliness and whatnot, but I've found a lot of good information in the comments on this site over the years, and still do. Of course, now I may now be misreading your intended intonation and confusing your second sentence for seriousness when you intended more facetiousness. Ah well, the perils of textual communication.
That or a hack created the day the software is released ( with etymology likely from game cracking groups ). The anonymous coward post about yours strikes me as a bastardization of proper usage for the term, likely caused by its ever more "buzzword" existence.

1) I believe you meant admin to the box, not the domain 2) BIOS Password and restricted boots options. 3) Group policy specifying the hash of executables allowed to run 4) Further restriction in group policy of which DLLs they can load, in case you get some cute browser helper object you *have* to have. 5) As stated by other, encrypted hard disk. 6) Thin clients. 7) Better : PXE booted thin clients
8) All : BIOS-Passworded Anal-Retentively-Group-Policied No-Local-Admin Hard-Disk-Encrypted PXE-Booted Thin-Clients.

Seems every exploit mentioned lately has been labeled 0-day. I guess they must have solved the problem of the [1-9][0-9]*-day exploits. Of course if we can limit the flaws to only a single day, it limits the time those nasty hackers have to break the systems! Right? What?
TCP/IP wasn't really innovative. The Hawaii based ALOHANET inspired Bob Metcalfe in creating Ethernet. The protocol they used thereon ( PUP : PARC Universal Packet ) was largely passed to the creators of TCP/IP as a series of rather specific "suggestions" by the members of PARC. They did so against the wishes of Xerox who had previously refused to share the PUP to be used outside of Xerox.

Shenanigans! Of course you can sell things you don't yet own or don't have on hand. Many businesses do. Hell, they have whole markets to do this. They make a sale to you, order the product from the manufacturer or other suppliers, apply the marked up price, and send it to you with a bow.
If they can't get it, they have to refund your money due to failure to provide the agreed upon service, sometimes with penalties added into the refunded amount.

If they want to make the engineers more productive, they need to remove the ping-pong tables!

I imagine that that is because you did not report giving them the ticket.

Or something like that.
On the contrary, a Google search for "Free Linux Open Source Software" +FLOSS yields only `Results 1 - 7 of about 32 for [...]'. There is some proof of usage.

This move is brilliant.
I downloaded your binaries and gunzip'd them, but I cannot seem to find the files upon listing. Perhaps your archive is bad?
Yes yes yes, but do you have a flag? No? Oh dear. Looks like I do claim this land in the name of the Queen. Better luck next time old chaps.

Or perhaps civilization panders to our obvious tribal mentalities. Us vs Them. Ours not Yours. Seems like a natural extension of our evolution to me.
