Even before the proverbial ink was dry on last week's interoperability deal between Microsoft and Red Hat, Linux competitor Novell laid off a still unknown number of employees involved with the open source openSUSE community.

Quoting: I could not post his articles without proper reference material


Geez, a guy just can't win.

Having standards just makes everything harder.

Stupid Standards..

Not having standards makes everything harder also.

Don't PANIK, lower your aspirations.
heh, that brings to mind one of my favorite demotivational posters. "If at first you dont succeed: sky diving is not for you"

I'll remember that.

OTHOH --

Blue screen of death, the sequel.
Quoting:But since I told him I could not post his articles with proper reference material he has been very very quiet.

Sounds like a good intro to a zombie movie. After all, that's what a significant percentage of Windows PC's are.

Won't that bring about the heat death of the universe?

Darn it Carla, those are very important LXer secrets your just throwing out there for the world to see.. do you realize that most people will not understand and think we can botox their genes or split the universe in half or some such?!?!?

LOL!!!

This is why Iran and North Korea can never be permitted to have LXer.com :)

Pot and Kettle, man.

Sure, Carla let loose with a big one, but your Freudian slips are nearly as bad.

How long will it take an asstute reader to figure out that we've nearly perfected the Buttox treatment to let people wear tight jeans again?

And surely somebody will catch on to our ongoing efforts to turn the Milky Way into a gated community, keeping out universal riffraff.

All thanks to you, pal. All thanks to you.
All your secrets are belong to us!
Buttox....die.....*thud*

Just cause I'm good at..and they are pretty good huh?..doesn't mean we can just open the floodgates of LXer secrets to the uninitiated..

I'm just digging a deeper hole aren't I?

>I'm just digging a deeper hole aren't I?

You think?
>> I'm just digging a deeper hole aren't I?

No, not at all Mikhail... errr... Scott.
TC let loose with a big one?

I thought I smelled something...
I'm afraid to even touch this one... but I must thank dinotrac for a good chuckle ;-)
