Tripe?

So you deny that Richard Stallman is a radical leftist, who wrote the "GNU Manifesto" and whose stated goal is to make proprietary software obsolete? You deny that the communist Chinese governments gets a free copy of Red Hat Linux and renames it Red Flag? You deny that the guy who cloned UNIX and gives it away to the rest of the world for free wasn't raised by a communist that trained in Moscow?

If not, what exactly are you claiming is tripe?

[Codename - Ron Benjamin]

Me! Me! Me wants too!

What's the dark, conspiratory black nexus between Linux and the DNC?

[N3WBI3]

Sparky, tell us about howard dean and the Linux connection..

[Codename - Ron Benjamin]

He's looking at you, kid. I'm just the middleman.

[N3WBI3]

wasn't raised by a communist that trained in Moscow?

Not at all heres a picture of the early training

[Golden Eagle]

As if you didn't already know.

Not enough? Pick your favorite search engine, enter "democrats" and "linux" and you'll find more than you boys can count.

And now, for the Grand Finale, please tell us how much do you believe on what's posted on communism.org.

[Golden Eagle]

"believe on"? I see you're still having trouble learning the English language, maybe you and n3wbie can study together sometime. But if you're referring to the website communism.org, yes, they too refer to linux as a "perfect example of communism" I believe it is.

If you deny it, you'll need to take it up with them, but I'd suggest finding some proof in your favor first, and unfortunately it all seems to be stacked against you. At least you guys aren't bolding your fonts, changing their colors, putting up little pictures of dolls, and of course calling me names endlessly, so maybe, finally, the reality of the situation is starting to dawn on you. Doubtful, but possible.

[N3WBI3]

Dont forget to tell us what OS host communism.org

[Codename - Ron Benjamin]

Well, with the "learning the English language" bit I think this completes today's act. Come back tomorrow for more of the same, and hopefully this thread will be new from here on.

[Golden Eagle]

Looks like it's hosted by a commercial service provider, so quite expectedly your supposed point is pointless.

[N3WBI3]

[x] Stallman is a leftist
[x] Redflag is the communist chinese OS copied legally from redhat
[x] The father of Linus ws a communist and lived in Moscow
[x] DNC loves Linux
[x] communism.org like Linux
[x] N3WIB3 has sub-par english...


Yup he seems to have gotten the important stuff out of the way

communism.org is running on windows 2000. Ironic....or is it?

[Golden Eagle]

Oh I've got plenty more if needed, there's so so much. But why don't you just add an automatic signature to every post of yours, saying you fully understand and completely stipulate those points, so I don't have to go over them every time. That way everyone will have a clearer idea of who you are and what you represent, before you go about misleading them.

[Codename - Ron Benjamin]

And "The Internationale" is protected by copyright. It cracks me every time I think of it.

[Jack of all Trades]

Pre-emptive, multi-tasking, interrupt control? Well done.

[Golden Eagle]

I see you already missed the point about it being their hosting company, and not their own systems. Maybe you should alert them, so they can change it. Or maybe you'll even host it for them, for free? The software is free, right? Why shouldn't everything else be?

[Salo]

You missed the point: communism.org runs on Windows 2000. EOD.

I suggested a while back that we have a header in the ping with the usual complaints, put downs and boring claims.  We could all just put something in our first post to indicate that we all agreee.  Once that is out of the way we could all go on with the subject of the thread.

Seems like it's needed now more than ever.

[Golden Eagle]

Obviuosly, their content clearly endorses it, so the chances are they couldn't get Lunix running on their own without significant technical support, which they couldn't afford. So, they went with the cheaper solution, which was hiring a service provider, who used Windows.
