The great dunking
Linus had once noted that he had never been in a dunk tank before, and
noted that, without that experience, his life was not complete. He need
wait no longer; at Linux.Conf.Au the lucky high bidder got to put Linus
into the tank. Here's the photos:
Have a look at our Linux.Conf.Au dunk tank page for pictures of other free software personalities, including Damian Conway, Bdale Garbee, Keith Packard, Rusty Russell, Anthony Towns, Jeff Waugh, and others. (Log in to post comments)
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 4:43 UTC (Sat) by zutman (guest, #5077) [Link] why is this not a paid-for ($) article?
The great dunking Posted Jan 19, 2004 13:21 UTC (Mon) by hensema (guest, #980) [Link] Because it contains male nudity
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 5:13 UTC (Sat) by docolczyk (guest, #14874) [Link] Great. My monitor just cracked.
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 9:12 UTC (Sat) by alspnost (subscriber, #2763) [Link] Well Jon, when's your turn then? :-)Hope you're having a great time out there....
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 10:22 UTC (Sat) by TheOneKEA (subscriber, #615) [Link] Yes, indeed. When do we get to see corbet dunked?
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 14:49 UTC (Sat) by bobwhite (guest, #18765) [Link] Forget corbet. I want to see Darl McBride dunked, preferrably at sea, with a large weight around his ankles.
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 16:21 UTC (Sat) by zooko (subscriber, #2589) [Link] Ugh. That is in ill-taste. In consideration of your peers who read comments, please refrain.
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 17:57 UTC (Sat) by davidw (subscriber, #947) [Link] Yeah, that sort of pollution is very damaging to the world's oceans.
The great dunking Posted Jan 18, 2004 3:29 UTC (Sun) by daniels (subscriber, #16193) [Link] After Linus got dunked, a number of people suddenly became very, very, very scarce (hiHavoc!). ;)
The great dunking Posted Jan 18, 2004 9:37 UTC (Sun) by schutz (subscriber, #3760) [Link] > Well Jon, when's your turn then? :-)> Hope you're having a great time out there.... Jon was supposed to do it (all the speakers were on the list), but
The great dunking Posted Jan 19, 2004 18:35 UTC (Mon) by iabervon (subscriber, #722) [Link] That's never a wise move. It just means that you're owned a dunking, andyou now won't be expecting it...
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 16:45 UTC (Sat) by rdtennent (guest, #11327) [Link] Linus is looking more like Tux every day :+)
The great dunking Posted Jan 17, 2004 18:33 UTC (Sat) by tjc (guest, #137) [Link] Yeah, a herring hanging out of the corner of his mouth would have been a nice touch.
The great dunking Posted Jan 22, 2004 4:06 UTC (Thu) by bignose (subscriber, #40) [Link] Linus is looking more like Tux every day :+) It's scary how true this is: http://www.zip.com.au/~bignose/photos/dunk-tux-closeup.jpeg
Linus must try one new thing at every LCA Posted Jan 19, 2004 6:20 UTC (Mon) by uwaucs (subscriber, #6160) [Link] Last year, he wore his first and so far only penguin suit (which pleased my wife, her sister and a Chilean friend who'd spend considerable time making the suit), this year it was the dunk tank.If Canberra can convince him to be there next year, is there anyone else reading who wants to start a pool on what new thing he's goinjg to do there?
