Let's see if this makes the Guinness Book of World Records for "Shortest time a case lasted in court until being thrown out." Twitter is a social networking site. If I had people talking trash about me on their Facebook wall, it would make no sense at all to sue Facebook because of what that person said.

Ubuntu Satanic Edition Banned From Distrowatch 24

skeeto writes "The infamous Ubuntu Satanic Edition has been banned from Distrowatch by the site's maintainer, Ladislav Bodnar, who said, 'There is no way I am going to add this distro to DistroWatch. [...] I don't consider the name "Satanic edition" as an appropriate name for a Linux distribution.' But the main reason seems to be that 'Ubuntu is a registered trademark of Canonical. You need to show me an official permission from Canonical that grants you the use of the word Ubuntu in your product's name.' What about Muslim and Christian editions? It seems that worries about trademark infringement and offensive material does not stop Distrowatch from including those."

Submission + - GTA IV website overloaded from trailer debut

Mr_Congeniality writes: "It seems as though that fans of the much accliamed Grand Theft Auto series are going to have to wait a little bit longer for the much awaited trailer for the franchise's next installment. Rockstar's servers, including the one that hosts Rockstar's homepage, is completely overloaded with traffic. Users are desperately flocking to other websites like GTANet and GTA4.net, but even these websites are being overloaded as well. More to come as this story develops."
