man, that article is so funny! and better: i dont think it was written to be a joke!
my favorites parts:
Quote:
Imagine if a stealth-bomber crashed because it’s software was written by anonymous Chinese or European hackers. It would make as much sense as inviting the French to come over and take over the White-House.
the writer is so dumb that doesnt know that most of DVD-copy software are made by American companies.Quote:
Osama uses Linux because he knows designed to counterfit DVDs, curcumventing the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, and defraud companies like Disney.
Of course comments are funny also:
Quote:
The name alone (LINUX) sounds kind of queer to me!
It’s just some primitive European substitute for a real operation system like the mighty Windows XP.
And please notice: im not a linux fun :)Quote:
No way. Blogger.com is hosting on Windows!!!
I would not host my website on Linux either. It’s disgusting.
That's funny...and ironic that the blogger doesn't comment on all the
state funding big corporations like Microsoft and Wal-Mart receive.
:eek:
The oddity of this experience for me was Township Rebellion coming on the I-pod as I started reading this horrible article. I wonder if she is a writer for Fox news. This is right up there with the comment about the movie happy feet being intended to teach children to be homosexual.
and the poll on the side for the best way to celebrate Jesus' birth was off the chain crazy. I wonder if I selected Boycotting Walmart if I would get a visit from O'Rielly's Fox security team.
The composer of that disgusting song, is only a fellow of a little part of Halloween Documents .... the rest to come
I admit it, it was as funny, though.
The fact he calls Windows and Linux a program shows how much he knows about computers, I pretty much gave up on the article as soon as I read that (but read the whole thing regardless). Pretty funny.Quote:
..I’m talking about a project called ‘Linux’, something you may not have encountered, but might do some day.
It’s a computer program that was initially developed in Finland as a means of circumventing valuable copyrights and patents owned by an American company called SCO Group.
Unlike Windows, which is..
I went into that thinking that it had to be a joke.... but i almost think the writer means it.... This is a great example why we need a giant robotic Tux to crush the non believers... And even it doesn't crush them a robotic tux would be loads of fun!
how much they or you know about computers aside.Quote:

an operating system is a type of program an application is another and a service is yet another.
Agreed, but I consider an operating system something that isn't dependent on another 'program' to operate. A program by my definition is the opposite.Quote:

The article's definitely taking the piss. It has to be :)
I'm fairly certain that some of the people writing comments are just going along with it as well.

Regardless of what Google may think of Linux; it is still the choice of terrorists, paedophiles and democrats
Now after reading those two quotes from one of the bloggers replies, you can't think he's serious!Quote:
I had a suspicion that when I wrote the original post that it would attract an undesirable pot-smoking rabble of Linux zealots
ac
still laughing. just can't figure out how serious he is.

ShelleyTheRepublican.com is a satirical entertainment web site.
…
Shelley’s views are outrageous, offensive and wrong, but no more so than the right-wing pundits that saturate our media. The purpose of this website is to point out how utterly absurd these right-wing views are. The fact that you had a lingering doubt that she was “for real” meant that you too agree that Shelley’s opinions reflect what some Republicans actually believe.
…
If you don’t find it funny, we kindly ask you to leave. If you don’t want to leave, we beg you not to ruin the joke for others.

ah... thanks Dalek... I was beginning to worry for a minute... I feel better now. :)
...satire or not, it doesn't change the fact the commies are running www.whitehouse.gov on Apache...
:)
who cares!!
linux rules cos it's free and works
linux plus opera, ooo, what else does an honest joe need!!
and it has a cute penguine, unlike a stained glass window which you want to throw a brick through
happy xmas all

If you see a company using Linux, it may be that they have not paid for this software. Report them to the Business Software Alliance who have the legal authority to inspect any company’s computers for illegal programs like Linux.

Hmmmmm,
You are obviously a shower of dyslexic drunkards. It isn't "Linux" it is "Linus", a quite understandable typo given the juxtapositions of "S" and "X" on your QWERTY keyboard.
Now, St. Linus, who was the Papal successor to St. Peter, and pontificated from 67-76 AD, would certainly have been a communist. Christians and communists do share a lot of socio-economic values as it happens........ and communism is not, primarily, a political system.
So, I would argue that Linus is a Christian operating system.
Mind you, we have just finished a week of BBC wildlife programmes on TV about penguins............ some decidedly dodgy looking types! and have you noticed that they all have "sly eyes"
:p:D
Merry Christmas :drink:
EDIT: I don't think that we have had a Pope "St. Windows" yet ?
bill "pearly" gates... eh?Quote:

Merry Christmas Westin,
Yo good ol boys make good 'n sure that the Georgia Highway Patrol have my orders..............? All penguins with a Zippo or a box of matches heading towards Atlanta are "extinguished" :D
Hot damn! that Northern War Of Economic Aggression won't never end?
We had to pay $12 million in reparations............... I guess that the Alabama was a damn fine commerce raider? ;):D
Built by Cammel & Laird in Birkenhead...........60 guns..........a commerce raider.......
The Graf Spee was a commerce raider, too.
Y'all collect any reparations from that one, nihil?
River Plate?
Damn ................. those south American drug dealers have a lot to answer for?
She scuttled, which seems to negate the insurance policy?
:D;)
