Does Clinton do Linux?
Guardian ^ | September 28 2006 | Bobbie Johnson

Posted on 09/29/2006 8:45:47 AM PDT by Halfmanhalfamazing

And you still ignore the issue of license policies by your beloved Microsoft, ones that intrude into your computer without your knowledge and quash your 1st Amendment rights (things impossible under the GPL). Your cowardice has resulted in you refusing to respond to it every time I've brought it up.

You bit, railing against trusting this "Russian" hacker who is really an American.

BS, it was you going on and on about how great you thought this Russian hacker was, trying to insult me for not kissing his feet and putting foreign hackers on some pedestal like you do. Now you're claiming he's American, who knows, just more of you talking in circles like usual.

Changing my font? What the hell are you babbling about now Iggle?

Is that really all you have? That I listen to and have a pinglist for Jim Rome? Are you really that bereft of material? I can answer the question for you if you'd like. You don't have crap, as usual, and now you are trying to drag this thread down into your gutter so the Mods will pull it, thereby hiding how badly you've been owned on this thread.

Why would I want this thread deleted, once again it clearly shows you foreign software lovers don't even understand the word "principle", much less have any of your own. Your admitted idolization of that bozo Jim Rome is a great representation of your character, now spinning into another one of your uncontrollable spasms of insults and all caps. This post will probably just result in another one of your tirades against me and anything American, from the Air Force on down.

Fyodor is an American. Not Russian.

LOL

Why wouldn't you want this thread deleted?

You've been shown to be in error SEVERAL times and you've taken your usual beating for being a stupid troll.

And this entire thing with you and Jim Rome is quite simply bizzare and nothing else.

It just shows how little relevant material you have to hit back with. As usual.

You do realize that you're a complete joke on this forum correct?

LOL!! I work for the Air Force and I've worked for CENTCOM and DISA. Yeah I really like to run things "American" down. What don't you just shut up and go vacuum your boss's office or something like a good janitor and be done with it?

We don't hate American companies at all. Many of us use distros that are developed and put out by American companies (e.g. RH, Novell, Slackware).

That reminds me--I'm going to download the new Slackware 11 DVD...

BTW--the company that puts out Slack is based in Walnut Creek, CA.

So what, no different than some foreign car dealer here in the U.S. you'd buy from in a split second if you thought the price was right, as you've already admitted supporting American businesses is the last thing on your priority list. "All things being equal" is the only time you'd even consider it, so there's really no need for you to go on trying to explain your position, although you probably feel like you need to since your character has been shown to be about an inch tall so far.

Most of Slack development takes place in the U.S.

The parts may be foreign, but the car is assembled in the U.S.

So then by that analogy, you don't drive GM, Ford, or DaimlerChrysler--as the parts for those cars are made in various places.

So, how do you get around? By foot?

I have a GMC with a sticker in the door well with a picture of the great state of Texas, that says "Built in Texas by Texans". While that sold me on the vehicle as soon as I saw it, obviously it means little to you since you've admitted you wouldn't care if the sticker was a map of China that said "Build in China by Slaves" so long as you liked the product and thought you got a good deal on it. There's really nothing else to say, is there.

LOL

Your GMC parts were made in Mexico and China...

That sticker doesn't mean anything other than it was assembled in Texas...

While the picture was clear and there was obviously nothing left worth saying, you somehow took that as an opportunity to pump foreign products from Mexico and China, without really even having a single iota of evidence to back up your claim. You're suffering from some type of anti-American phobia, once again there's really nothing else that needs to be said. Goodnight.
