HypocrisyHypocrisyPosted Sep 12, 2003 14:48 UTC (Fri) by ccchips (subscriber, #3222)In reply to: Hypocrisy by hppnq Parent article: SCO's McBride on his open letter to the Linux community (ComputerWorld) Hypocrisy is the American way, isn't it? What other reason could there be for all this slanted coverage?

Hypocrisy Posted Sep 12, 2003 15:14 UTC (Fri) by hppnq (subscriber, #14462) [Link] Hypocrisy is a European feature in our Democracy 0.02 release, which was shipped overseas with all rights reserved. We might have to sue.
Hypocrisy Posted Sep 12, 2003 19:38 UTC (Fri) by MacGuyver (guest, #15050) [Link] Hypocrisy is not a feature, but merely a bug in the GOP-subroutine of theU.S.-administration-module of Democracy 0.02. Simply declaring a bug a feature is common practise in Washington state, but has been ridiculed in most civilised parts of our planet. BTW, Democracy 0.02 is loosly based on several older working examples from - among others - Thebes (today a part of Greece, EUROPE) and the British Empire (today better known as the United Kingdom, EUROPE). Sadly, there are numerous other examples of one software company swallowing others and then claiming those companies' developments as their own intellectual property...
Hypocrisy Posted Sep 12, 2003 23:49 UTC (Fri) by dooglio (guest, #2604) [Link] I downloaded the latest patch to Democracy 0.2.0-911, but when I tried to install thepackage, i got a dependancy conflict with bill-of-rights-0.1.0. It seems they are incompatible. Something about unresolved symbols in these new libraries called libpatriot.so.0, libcarnivore.so.0 and libdmca.so.0. Any suggestions?
Hypocrisy Posted Sep 12, 2003 23:59 UTC (Fri) by dooglio (guest, #2604) [Link] Sorry about the jagged presentation in the above comment. I just discovered the HTML option on the Reply page. :-) I downloaded the latest patch to Democracy 0.2.0-911, but when I tried to install the package, i got a dependancy conflict with bill-of-rights-0.1.0. It seems they are incompatible. Something about unresolved symbols in these new libraries called libpatriot.so.0, libcarnivore.so.0 and libdmca.so.0. Any suggestions?
Hypocrisy Posted Sep 13, 2003 6:01 UTC (Sat) by frazier (guest, #3060) [Link] Hypocrisy is not a feature, but merely a bug in the GOP-subroutine of the U.S.-administration-module of Democracy 0.02.You realize that the DMCA and Sonny Bono act passed through both a Republican congress and a Democratic President, right?! Before people of whatever major political party affiliation start taking the high road I suggest they look back in history circa-1998 and decide whether they have the right to be so snotty and arrogant. Maybe you're tied to the Green party or something, but if your a Democrat rest assured you're part of a dirty system too. Not to say that the Patriot act isn't wrong, but I can't play a DVD on my laptop under RH9, which is painfully and obviously wrong (okay, I could add packages but they should logically be part of a standard install). I own the DVD. I own the computer. WTF?
