Since /0 is the string-termination character, would it be possible to convince a court to see the decloration the way the kernel does, and therefore hold them to the GPL since they're the ones who declared it?

The site's not loading.

If the Kernel asks you if you think its gained wait or if its ass looks big in those drivers.

If we wait in this pumpkin patch long enough, the Great Pumpkin will rise up and give out toys. It will then float to the offices of the evil developers and smite them.

I don't think they were trivializing anything--rather alluding to Linus' tendency to make pithy, and often insightful, comments on pretty much everything.

rotfmao. circumcise, vomit and black, going to +5 informative. Way to troll.

In lbs and oz. in the U.S., in stones in Britan, In Kilos and grams virtually everywhere else.

...lying to the kernel about their license

Insubordination at its worst! Lying to the kernel!

Private Function, get Corporal Punishement on the phone and have them admonished immediatley!

Let's add cryptographic checks to the module loader. The vendors will need to have their modules signed if they want them to be loaded. Before signing, license terms will be verified. This way we can also guarantee that the modules do not affect stability.

I'm sure this hans't been done [microsoft.com] before.

Linus' 2 cents undoubtedly cost the hoster of his message [theaimsgroup.com] more than that in /.ed bandwidth.

`bzcat linux-2.4.2x.tar.bz2 | lpr`

Then weigh the resulting print job! EZ Huh?

Well, you should have more luck with 2.6. I hear that it scales much better.

Have you actually seen the user agent string for Internet Explorer? It starts with Mozilla.

For less than the price you pay for a winmodem plus their crippleware^Wdifferently-abled driver, why not just hop over to pricewatch.com [pricewatch.com] and buy a real modem and be done with it.

Your box will also run faster, as you won't be mimicking hardware functionality in software.

It will also be easier to combine 2 or more modem connections in a low-end box for faster speed.

Yeah, just who does he think he is?!? He's acting like he invented Linux or something.

It's not about robbing you of the knowledge or joy you gained by creating the code. It is about robbing other people of the right to enjoy and improve the software you wrote.

So I suppose you don't have any curtains on your bathroom so you don't rob other people the right to enjoy watching you take a shower?
