ThistleWebhey, it's your site, if you believe it's a productive practice, go for itMay 31 00:00
ThistleWebjust saying, you're cutting off a lot of options by doing itMay 31 00:00
ThistleWebI don't see any differece between people saying OSux, freetards or M$May 31 00:02
ThistleWebit's all just biased fanbois taking cheapshotsMay 31 00:02
ThistleWebit just says "I have an agenda, I will select stuff which supports it" which most neutrals will skip over as unreaible information....even if it is reliable it will be dismissedMay 31 00:03
schestowitzI'll tell you what, I'll stop the name changes for a whileMay 31 00:04
schestowitzAnd see how that goesMay 31 00:04
schestowitzOSux is not like M$May 31 00:04
schestowitzM$ is chargedMay 31 00:04
schestowitzIt's overloaded and stereotypedMay 31 00:05
schestowitzOSuX is what MinceR called OS XMay 31 00:05
ThistleWebit's not just the posts, it sets the tone in here tooMay 31 00:05
schestowitzI only sometimes use that, depending on contextMay 31 00:05
ThistleWebyou'd think that it'd make sense to use words Google knows to help put the stories in front of people who search for themMay 31 00:06
ThistleWebnot alternate names which won't show up in those searchesMay 31 00:06
schestowitzIn headlines I rarely change the namesMay 31 00:06
ThistleWebas you know search engine spiders look at title and body text, and rates it more accurate to the search if it's in bothMay 31 00:07

ThistleWeb<schestowitz> OSuX is what MinceR called OS X  << my point exactly, it sets the tone in here for others to amplify itMay 31 00:08
schestowitzI'm OK with itMay 31 00:08
schestowitzI love humourMay 31 00:08
ThistleWebas I said, it's your callMay 31 00:09

schestowitzThistleWeb: the attitidinal issue was never an issueMay 31 00:12
schestowitzBear in mind that many Linux sites died over timeMay 31 00:12
schestowitzThis one grew and is still growingMay 31 00:12
schestowitzAnd not because of lack of professionalism as you might think of itMay 31 00:12
schestowitzBut because it tries to cover important stories IMHOMay 31 00:13
schestowitzNot just another :"unity sucks" post or "Microsoft Windows is so slow"May 31 00:13
ThistleWebkMay 31 00:13
schestowitzI do try to cover what I think people will care aboutMay 31 00:13
schestowitzTechdirt does something similarMay 31 00:13
schestowitzBut techdirt is about the abundance thingMay 31 00:13
schestowitzI'm more about the sharing code part, fighting those who try to limit sharing for big profits, like MAFIAAMay 31 00:14
schestowitzImagine if the MAFIAA lost..May 31 00:14
schestowitzWhich they don't, they still growMay 31 00:14
schestowitzThey would patent drumbeatsMay 31 00:14
ThistleWebto me, there's no either / or.....you can cover stories that matter in a more professional wayMay 31 00:14
schestowitzAnd then like Microsoft demand $4 for every CD of indie artistsMay 31 00:15

ThistleWebit didMay 31 00:16
schestowitzMaybe 1 per day until last yearMay 31 00:16
ThistleWeball it takes is to use proper names for things and peopleMay 31 00:16
schestowitz[23:49] <ThistleWeb> you could do a "where are they now" past / present to show microsoft's influenceMay 31 00:16
schestowitzDo you know how long it would take to do this?May 31 00:16
schestowitzAnd the following day people move on, looking at other newsMay 31 00:17
schestowitzI have been there before... writing very long texts that are well-researched... it doesn't work too well on the WebMay 31 00:17

schestowitzUnless they hate being associated with the company they boostMay 31 00:24
ThistleWebit's just a cheap shot that neutrals see when they read the postMay 31 00:24
ThistleWebwhich undermines the rest of the story around themMay 31 00:24
schestowitzDepends who readsMay 31 00:24
schestowitzFor regular readers it's a signal that the source is a Microsoft boosterMay 31 00:25

Chips_B_MalroyWhile you may be correct in some ways to focus on patents and rights, you lose sight of the larger battle.May 31 16:54
Chips_B_MalroyTo put it plainly, most people are bored by legal patent talk, as they have little input into the legal system of said governments.May 31 16:55
Chips_B_MalroyTherefore, to educate enough people to get the patent laws changed is very hard to do.  Most people see patents as just more of the IP protection types laws that the elite (extremely rich) class are forcing on them in a supposedly democratic countries.May 31 16:57

Chips_B_MalroyGoblin> I seen the irc logs last night.  Must say I agree with you that instead of patents, which are a worthy topic, average people are more interested in things like how to get their computer running better, and the desktop market share.  These are the folks that runs windows.May 31 19:56
_GoblinI think the people who understand the patent issue already have an opinion.....for everyone else, its a complex issue which may turn them away.......May 31 19:56
_Goblindon't get me wrong....there is a place for it, just not the focusMay 31 19:56

Chips_B_Malroy"It really angers me that a CEO of a $20 billion company ? who?s been paid by me and other Yahoo! shareholders $60 million so far for her last two years of work ? could show such a paucity of understanding for the most strategic asset within the company.  That?s actually very offensive to me."May 31 20:00
Chips_B_Malroy"In 2005, Yahoo! invested $1 billion into Alibaba Group (including Yahoo! China assets).  Today, 6 years later, that investment is worth $10 billion according to the last offer made by Alibaba Group earlier this year to buy back some of Yahoo!?s stake.  That is an incredible return on investment for Yahoo! shareholders.  Congrats Jerry.  And it?s even more exciting to think of what that stake could be worth in 5 and 10 May 31 20:02
