Wow. Talk about taking sarcasm badly.
Oh, right, that definition thing:
Sarchasm: The gap between the sarcastic comment and the one that didn't get it.

+1 for Bob ... sarchasm ... thats funny
(Def) The internet: Lack of contextual information and social constraints on obnoxious behavior. /sarcasm
Wish I'd thought of it.
Some magazine/newspaper runs a somewhat famous contest. Take a word, add/change/subtract one letter to create a new word, then define it.
In the several year's winners that I've read about, "sarchasm" is the only one I remember. It's very useful.

If you go to the RaLink site at http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html you will see the following quote.
However the RaLink drivers for the rt2860 wireless card don't work, at least not properly, on either Ubuntu or Mandriva. I've also tried compiling the source files available at the RaLink link above, with no joy. So much for RaLink's "very active in the Linux community" BS, they can't or won't supply a driver that actually works.
I've tried this on Jaunty UNR and the alpha of Karmic UNR (which has 2.6.30-8 as the kernel).
Quoting:Ralink is very active in the Linux community, and provides source code for many of its client drivers to developers. You can find our Linux drivers and supporting information below:

My Ralink chipset works, but... on Mandriva Free it didn't until the driver or firmware came from that restricted place in the repo. Very active in the Linux community in a closed source sort of way.
Sarchasm.. I love it. :)
Quoting:SarchasmDefinition: An artificial sweetener that makes another Bobism go down easier, however, it has the failing of leaving a pungent after taste.

I think it's safe to say that projects like gNewSense & linux-libre are starting to make a lot more sense. That being said I was already planning on heading in that direction..
