Aussies grab Linux
Lord C:
Here's one for Kintaro:
--- Quote ---"Australian IT has reported that the Australian NSW
government has established 'Australia's first whole-of-government
panel to supply open source software and services to its departments and
agencies.' Basically they have opened the way for the wide spread
goverment usage of Linux software and services."
--- End quote ---
Kintaro:
It cant be true, our government couldnt tell the difference between a computer and a bloody barbeque, and if it is, why dont they cancel the free trade agreement with the United States until their patent office pulls the dick out of its arse.
TB:
Things in our government ARE getting better. After all, Richard Alston is no longer Communications Minister. Let's just hope that the prick doesn't become Chairman of Telstra now that Ziggy's gone.
Kintaro:
Things are not better, we have one party controlling the entire senate, its now fucking pretty much illegal to strike, we are going back to the days of Romanov Russia. At the moment the only protection from the government being able to completely withdraw our voting rights and turn this nation into a dictatorship is Her Majesty and the Governer General who can sack ministers.
The United States military have said they developing weather modification and they have facilities with the ability. The last summer in Victoria, Australia has been much cooler then usual, we arn't even under water restrictions. I think Australia's involvment with houseing United State Inteligence facilities is some kind of trade for weather modification to fix our drought seasons in the richer states.
The sensible party (The Australian Democrats) had a big problem a few years back, however they are essential to keep the balance in the Australian Sentate, they will never have power elsewhere however they are a party of highly balanced and informed people. Go turn on ABC some time and watch the senate, the only senators that bring issues in that are relevant to Australia and the Australian People are the democrats on almost all accounts. Labor tied with the green party which could scare anyone voting (the green party should really be called the pink party) for those maniacs, and it has led to the worst election outcome in my small lifetime. The Liberals (they are actually conservative retards) have to much power now, and were fucked. I personally will goto Europe or Canada (a university Course in Canada is the same price as a TAFE course in Australia) before this shithole gets any worse.
So no, the Australian Government are fucked.

Ah I'm sick of hearing about Linsux they should run BSD or solaris. I've just been round a friends hous who runs a BSD server and solaris and both OSes are better than Linux.
