I like the description of 'Open Source' advocates as "spineless"

And in light of the recent discussions of "piracy" here:

"A whole generation has grown up with the idea that it is normal for them to have no freedom," says Mr Stallman.

"We should destroy the record companies and put an end to institutions that are this arrogant and trying to take away our freedom," he says.

Edit: Actually I suppose this should be in the lounge.

Without cheating I got 7 out of 7 right on the GNU/Geek Challenge in that article. I have to admit I was a little nervous about the last two questions.

[KernelPanic]

I got the last two wrong.
