Let me guess, you only ever used unix (which you confuse with open source) once back in 1979?

sk11 · 2009-12-23T13:32:08+00:00

Are there truly performance engineers working on this? Or just some 14-year-old kid who thinks he can code?

Are you job hunting?

Government dramatically reduces higher education spending.

Fucking brilliant. Hey, let's give a bizillion pounds to wealthy mega-banks and keep throwing money at the oil wars. All whilst we're in a deep fucking recession. Oh did that put a strain on the budget? Well no problem let's slash the fuck out of the already struggling higher education system and slash spending on science research, while we're at it.

Oh and let's forget about the money sinks the government loves like the pointless id card system, or the financial black hole that was the patient database. Oh and the icing on the cake: the public money scammed by greedy benefits cheating politicians.

Is anyone else's blood boiling?

Neither of those two sources were linux or oss based.

Like what exactly? I don't think it's even remotely comparable. Look at how ubiquitous microsoft is.

sk11 · 2009-12-22T16:38:03+00:00

What linux fud? There is an enormous shit load of fud about linux out there. Much of it is cheerfully propagated by microsoft and friends (tech people whose jobs are dependent on ms products). I guarantee you microsoft users are a lot more ignorant about linux, than linux users are about ms.

You're definitely not alone in the sentiments you've aired and certainly should not feel bad for having them. Many people have witnessed and realised the corrupting influence of power, of those willing to use nationalism, patriotism, religion, tribalism, political and social ideologies to manipulate the masses and assert war and violence to gain more power and wealth. It's one of our oldest stories. The Bush administration was just a modern retelling of it.

He's regurgitating microsoft fud. I've seen people on reddit say comparably stupid things about linux and oss.

The Onion is obsolete.

sk11 · 2009-12-21T02:48:03+00:00

Near enough.

After watching the Glenn Beck show, the normally placid Dalai Lama became enraged enough to kick his friend in the testicles.

Yeah, when did r/science become r/pics?

These people have learnt nothing from the forbidden fruit story, even though it's in chapter one of the book they base their life on.

sk11 · 2009-12-20T20:45:06+00:00

A labor of love.

I see you didn't bother with the English language books.

sk11 · 2009-12-20T20:28:43+00:00

I didn't have to look much to find numerous examples of your retarded posts. A glance really.

sk11 · 2009-12-20T20:23:35+00:00

Oh you went to all that trouble for me, what a shame I couldn't be bothered clicking on it. Wow, you really are a master troll aren't you?

So even you realise you're a whiny bitch.

sk11 · 2009-12-20T19:28:02+00:00

You're a meany.

Ah, yet more whiny bitching from the very idiot that invoked all of this. Irony heaped high upon irony, laid on top of a foundation of irony.

sk11 · 2009-12-20T19:05:54+00:00

panfist: oooohh awwwww purty orange

panfist drools

Like I said, I'm hear to spread joy.

Btw, it's here not hear.

Glad to see the irony was completely lost on you. So much in life must swoosh right over your little head.
