Just when you think the loons at SCO Group couldn't become any more suicidally irrational, they actually try to tell IBM that they can no longer ship AIX. *snicker* It's a shame it doesn't do much good to sell a stock short that only hits $10 on a "conference call day". Look for them to be plummeting like dying sinners going to hell in the morning after the market opens with IBM's response* to this on the table. I think maybe _this_ time investors will realize that SCO is being run into the ground by a bunch of nitwits. * - "This matter will eventually be resolved in the normal legal process." Translation: "We will now sue them into itty bitty pieces." SCO Fucks Up |

Any sort of goodwill remaining in my heart towards the music "industry" is now _gone_. Fuck the RIAA and fuck each and every label that co-operates with them for allowing them to flat-out take advantage of a naive college student running a search engine. The fact that the settlement provided that the student was allowed to _refute_ the claims the RIAA made (effectively, in exchange for the RIAA saying he wasn't stealing anything) in exchange for his $12,000 says two words to me... Shakedown ...and... Terrorism. Fuck the RIAA. ABCNEWS.com : Record Industry Targets Teen Programmer |

Just in case anyone was wondering why the CEO of SCO seems desperate to make the news, no matter what incredibly stupid things he'll have to say to do it. CBS MarketWatch.com, SCOX history |

Well, this was such a welcome shock(*) to me right now that you could literally knock me over with a feather, so I figure I'll pass it along as something resembling good news. * - with more and more completely moral things I do every day actually being made illegal by legislation I am beginning to develop what can only be considered a healthy digust of the world at large and a tendency to think that given a chance, companies will immediately attempt to draft legislation, sue, file patents, and otherwise steal everything in existance, and a few things that don't, strictly speaking, exist at all. I'm beginning to mentally associate the phrase "for profit" with "bottomless greed". Now I suppose the next step will be to find some places online that sell perfectly normal HTML versions of books at prices that reflect the lack of a quarter pound of paper and ink... or just perfectly normal HTML versions of books. I'm not having any of this proprietary reader format nonsense. Baen Free Library |
