I'm probably alone in hoping proprietary software never becomes common in Linux, even at the cost of new users. It'd destroy pretty much everything that's great about it. If you want a UNIXish operating where the underlying base is open, and the top is fi … (see comment)

Well, I cannot blame this one on underwater volcanoes that haven't erupted since 1999.. Damn... Of course, this doesn't change my preconceived notions that this is all just a hoax by the ruling liberal elite..... They're just getting sneakier :@ (see comment)

Not that I had any tact to begin with. Not really my diagnosis, rather the diagnosis you see most people conferring on those who end their lives. Most people find the concept so uncomfortable that the only way they can deal with it is to label people as … (see comment)
