Wow, all those lawsuits and all lost. SCO didn't stand a chance, but one question remains: why are companies, like SCO, doing things like that (eventhough they probably knew it were lost cases)? In a way it's a complete waste of resources (they're gone now), but it also gave the open source community new strengths and insights, like is stated in the article. Still, I'm wondering what's behind the reasoning to start such lawsuits. A way to make money?

Yes, it is a promotion of my website and work, but SnapZu is an ideal platform to showcase it. I just did a good re-do of the site and was wondering what you people think of it.

I think it's better to ban all social media from government phones, especially from the representatives. This way they can focus on their work, instead of showing their smug faces to fullfill their desperate need for attention. Extra tip: regular media should also focus more on the quality of their work instead of the quantity of attention.

There were two types of kids in the 1970s and 1980s, those who were on the bike doing a jump, and those who were lying on the ground being jumped over.

This is so begging me to say something outrageously snobby about Linux, open source and all the other wonders that aren't proprietary in this beautiful world, but you know what? I won't.
Why repeating the same shit over and over and over again, just because people still don't learn? Why would I worry about the shit people bring on to themselves, just because they are too lazy to learn a thing or two or why people fall for the same scams all the time? I do not give a hoot about that anymore. I gave up on that a long time ago, but still the temptation to say "See, I told you so" remains. Maybe I should remove my empathy for them all together and keep my choices en experiences to myself. Maybe I should smile in silence and stop wondering about it. It's not my problem, you see? It's the Windows user's problem. Let's keep it that way.show morePosted in: Has Windows become Spyware?
