the Mandrivia joke

Disclaimer: it’s j/k

A> ubuntu is linux for human beings - mandriva is linux for computers

* A has quit ()

<B> ah, the computer shut him down!?

<C> heh

the “dog” joke

<He`> not as risky as naming your dog “sex” though

<He`> no as it after the dog runs away at night … and you go looking for him

<He`> and have you explain to the night beat cops… that you are out looking for sex

<He`> it’s rather long one
<He`> he gets married.. and his wife forces him to give up the dog

<He`> they decide to get divorced later.. and he tells the judge.. I had sex before marriage.. and my wife made me give it up after marriage
<He`> and the judge says … welcome to the club

<He`> he goes looking for an apartment .. and tells the landlord .. he needs a room for sex

<He`> and the landlord tells him he doesn’t care if he does it any room

ROFLMAO!! And, here is the original story.

5 Types of FOSSites

I and HereBeDragon were discussing about the various kinds of people we have in the Indian FOSS community, when he started listing the different types of FOSSians.

Here’s a 5-point classification of FOSSites. What type are you?

a)The Diehards - They are firm believers in FOSS philosophy and will not accept anything other than FOSS and sometimes feared to be fanatics too.

b)The Dedicated - They are dedicated to FOSS and are also believers of FOSS philosophy, but are not fanatical. Though they personally advocate and follow FOSS, they leave the choice to others to decide for themselves.

c)The Didactics - They are one who make a lot of noise about FOSS but have little to contribute or mostly they themselves do not follow FOSS.

d)The Pragmatists - They are very practical in nature. They give the importance to solving issues than sticking on to philosophies. Though they are admirers or followers of FOSS, if they seem to have a better solution in non-FOSS they do not feel bad in implementing them.

e)The Opportunists - They do not have real interest in FOSS philosophy, but consider it as a means of gaining something or moving higher up in their professional ladder. They neither advocate FOSS nor contribute.

What Am I ? Hmm… /me is (b + d) What about you ? :-/
