waltmanhttp://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/alternative-download has a drupal page saying the site is down12:44
Joe_CoTwaltman, given how unpopular slashdot has become, i don't think that's the right term anymore13:32
JonathanDis it now "reddited?"13:33
JonathanDor "Dugg"13:33
JonathanDor even "Twittered?"13:33
Joe_CoTdon't know13:33
Joe_CoTprobably "Mashed" actually13:33
Joe_CoTMashed or Twittered13:34
Joe_CoTas much as I like reddit it's not the biggest of the sites. and Digg's been dead for a while now13:34
JonathanDYou don't need overall volume to "Slashdot" something.13:34
JonathanDJust velocity.13:34

passstab"Linux and its programs are free yet also IMMUNE to viruses, adware, spyware, malware, and trojans."17:04
passstabthat line is legally troubling17:04
passstabnot that i'm a lawyer XD17:05
DialYorklol17:07
DialYorki know nothing is absolute17:07
DialYorkhowever, compared to windows its virtually immune17:07
JonathanDDialYork: you should talk to the cposc people.17:07
DialYorkhowever if you use the word virtually people will assume your lying17:07
JonathanDThey have their own irc network.17:07
DialYorkcool17:07
DialYorkjust sent them an email17:07
JonathanDmostly because they are silly.17:08
DialYorklol 90% of the public is "silly"17:08
DialYorklol17:08
passstabprobably better to just focus on the other advantages17:10
DialYorkpeople either don't understand or don't care about the other advantages,17:11
DialYorkpeople see free as not as good,   people unfortunately don't care about its "open" nature17:11
passstablike speed and stability?17:11
DialYorkthey do care about things breaking and they equate viruses and stuff to that17:11
DialYorkwhich include speed and stability17:11
