One fucked up EULA

Use python ... :fu: M$ ... M$ is completely full of shit, they must be exterminated :cool:
looks like the phrase:
f "open" (no quotes)
also causes the unpostability

I disagree, I haven't seen anything in their programming language licences forbidding works created by them to be used under non-MS OSes or the use of open source licences.

Ummm...Microsoft lets you use Visual Studio for open source software. MASM does not. That makes MS look like they are promoting freedom, hence the RMS comment. Or are you one of those people who thinks RMS is evil too?

That kind of error happened to me too when I posted about the OpenBSD problems at http://www.microsuck.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10205
Nothing in there that could be censored. The errored attempts had the words
of 0penBSD
in it, which makes the forum BARF. Note that above it I used a zero instead of an "O" to keep it from barfing.
The forums have a serious bug.

Sorry, I agree, I didn't read your post properly so I've edited my response to it.
By the way MASM and MASM32 are made by different people, the former is the Microsoft Assembler and the latter is the MASM32 project a clone of MASM. I wonder if MS could sue for trademark violation, I'd report them but I don't want them to read their EULA and get any ideas. Imagine a world where running OpenOffice and Firefox under Windows is illeagal and so is using Windows software under WINE. :eek:
EULAs carry far too much weight legally speaking and I think the courts should use a bit off common sense when they're concerned but since when have the courts ever had any common sense?
