This tickles me.  The maroons at Linux.com felt compelled to write an in-depth article about how the iPhone developer program is not compatible with “Free Software.”  Ignoring the biggest flaw in their article, which is assuming that the NDA restrictions currently being imposed on the developers in the beta program will also apply to developers once the [...]

And Today’s Jackass Blogger Is…

Ashutosh Chaturvedi! Ashu serves up one hell of a two-fer on his blog. In fact, his blog has a whopping 2 posts, and they’re both mind bogglingly retarded. Taking the lesser of two fuck-ups first, we have this gem. Ashu is upset that Tuesday’s Leopard Security update broke ssh. Quote:
