Ubuntu Linux trounces Federation and Empire in hacking competition. And I mean TROUNCED.

Filed under: Empire, Federation — Fake Linus Torvalds @ 2:46 pm

See here. OS X got pwned so quickly the Empire didn’t know what hit them. Poor Bill Gates also got trounced when his precious Vista got hammered. And the Ubuntu laptop? Not a scratch.

Poor Federation…. Microsoft’s brand is declining

Vista is crap. So why use it to clean it?

Filed under: Federation — Fake Linus Torvalds @ 2:50 pm

See here. Vista toilet paper.

Vista criticized for driver problems, other problems. By Vista executives.

Airport security officials think MacBook Air was a terrorist weapon. It isn’t?

See here. But then they gave it back! It’s like finding an Iranian nuke and giving it back to Iran!!!

The Federation released IE 8 Beta 1. No one cares because all the beta testers are using Linux. Bonus: I take it apart piece by piece

Filed under: Federation — Fake Linus Torvalds @ 5:24 pm

See here. Here are some of the “new and exciting features”:

  • Activities. Uh yeah, we could do that in Firefox back when extensions were introduced. Is it just me, or is Microsoft copying Firefox? I want my lawyer!
  • Web Slices. Isn’t that… kinda like Live Bookmarks?
  • Favorites Bar. Oh my gosh, it got updated! And… nothing changed?
  • Automatic Crash Recovery. Wow, it’s not like IE’s playing catchup. Not like Firefox has had this since 2.0 or anything.
  • Improved Phishing Filtering. Does this mean it’ll block Microsoft.com now?

Apple borrows a page from Microsoft, delays the iPhone SDK

Filed under: Empire, Federation — Fake Linus Torvalds @ 9:56 am

See here. The Empire’s trying to copy the Federation???

The Federation promises not to sue us. Cause they’d lose anyway.

Aw. How nice of them. See here.

They’re also opening up their protocols (most notably Office 2007). Mostly because we did such a good job reverse engineering them.
