Comment there are plenty of open source leeches (Score 2) 255

There's a guy I know. Call him Charlie. Not his real name. In fact, it's more than one guy. I'm sure you know many Charlies, too.

Charlie is a core contributor to half a dozen high profile open source projects. Not that he actually, contributes anything useful. But he hangs out on the irc channel and did just enough (which probably involved closing tickets as "will not fix") to get invited as a core team member. Based on his name, other projects invite him as a core contributor.

I run an open source project. It was featured somewhere (not slashdot!) and had a hype boost. Almost instantly, I get an email from Charlie asking if he can be a core team member. His only contribution was sending that email. Not even starring it on github. So I told him to fuck off.

Tell her how good slashdot used to be, before beta, before dice, before va linux, before the pt cruiser, before andover.net.

On second thought, fuck that. Take your money and go to Amsterdam. Party it up with all the hookers and drugs while you still can. And pay extra for bareback. It's not like AIDS will kill you!

But seriously, primates (other than humans) have small peckers. And even for humans, asian peckers are pretty small, too -- compared to whites or blacks -- but consistent with other primates. Anyhow, the point is, if you need a small monkey condom, do like Rob Malda and shop at the asian grocery store for your condoms. Just don't tell them that they're actually designed for fingers, not peckers!

Comment "a public repository" (Score 1) 47

Yeah, a public repository on github. What was that other place? Oh yeah, sourceforge. I think google delisted them for serving malware. Kind of funny how that used to be hot shit in the open source world. If that doesn't prove your standards are too low, I don't know what does.
