i would get worked up about this, but i just canceled my cable service, so this doesn't really affect me anymore.
"Ah, so that explains Windows..."
TFTFY
um... proof?
the burden of proof is on you, bucko
I am a linux user and hit waaay above the averages for all of them (of course nowhere near the maximums of 3333.33$ and 1337.00$. I think it is hilarious that on the whole the "freetards", linux users paid more than the same number of windows users. I hope more companies do this kind of thing. I personally think it was an awesome deal. the games are so so, but i spent the same for all of these that it would cost me to get a new Wii game anyway, so i feel i came out ahead. and i got to support the EFF and a charity I try to support yearly, Child's Play.
yea. this will work.
Until MS or the sue happy Apple show up with lawsuits in spades.If i was going to be releasing open source software (currently I release completely public domain(not the same as copyleft)) i would avoid this dpl as much as possible. sounds like a honeypot scam to me.
and my spelling skills at 7 am suck, by the way
very expensive programs like syamatec enterprise and macaffee(take your freaking network down, why don't you) suck as weel. why again, is there a reason to pay anything for shitty highend or low end AV software?
besides, only windows user need AV (right now). as a linux user, I don't have as many problems and ClamAv is in that sweet spot of free and decent.
yea, well crayon physics dude is windows only. fuck that shit.
i wasn't defending a corrupt cop, i just meant that there are plenty of people who may hurt, not only the cop, the cop's family as well. Should the family be punished for the cop's actions? I hope you don't think so.
Not all cops are corrupt, by the way.
"in many ways, Canada's copyright law is already much more draconian than US law (for example: no real fair use provisions)"
what sucks is that almost all sue happy jerks ignore that when they start the dogs of war.
so the only ones they blamed was the IT department.
Yea, nice to know you take the fall if you do you job correctly. I would be out of there in a heartbeat if i read that line.
i don't know, it seems like a bad idea to have a cop's address out in the open, ya know?
isn't the us debt closer to 13 trillion?
wait, you won't buy their products, but you will pirate them? doesn't just accomplish the same thing? your $200 bucks is useless to them. your usage stat, on the other hand, is worth something. if you really want to be a rebel, why not use something that doesn't make it look like Ms has you by the ballsack?
besides, wasn't it bill gates that said he would rather people pirate windows than buy the competition?
i agree.
now get people to do that.
not easy, huh?
Most people A): don't care, or B): do care, already switched, and are treated like pariah's in normal society, which doesn't encourage anyone else to switch.
fun huh?
As a Mississippian, I for one apologize for Jim Hood. Believe me when I say that I did not, nor ever will, vote for the man.
He fear mongers here alot too.
hell, i just installed linux (fedora core 1 at the time).
THAT was a fun conversation.
Re:
it sure wouldn't at my house in high school. i would have had linux on it before i even got off the bus :)
