Right. I believe you. No, really. I do.

Yep. Those trolls tell a lot of lies and half-truths.

If by "hacked", you mean DDOS'd....
There was the earlier SQL Injection "hack", but the site wasn't actually
hacked. This is more like replacing the front sheet of a 3-ring binder as
compared to replacing a few single words throughout a glue-bound book.

Well, the DDOS attack is most likely coming from compromised Windows
machines. As for the SQL Injection attack, sounds like poor scripting.
It's not like the inherent windows vulnerabilities and [lack-of] security
model that allows a windows box to be infected within 40 minutes of
plugging into the internet.

Maybe they should use something else then. Just because SuSe 10.1 may be
bug-ridden doesn't mean Debian or Fedora are.

No. RSS is a completely different protocol from NNTP.

Proof?

Possible, but Microsoft is often held up as the "Gold Standard" (Fool's
Gold, but 90% of the population doesn't know the difference....) so it's
natural that it'd be the focus of much angst.

Ad hominem attack? That's the _best_ you can do?
Sad.
Very sad.
You are aware that homophobia is an expression of latent homosexuality,
are you not? I know I'm comfortable with my sexuality. Heterosexual, for
the record. I'm sure there are Homosexual Linux users as well as
Homosexual Windows users. These same people also drive cars, so I guess
by your logic it's fair to say that the roads have been taken over by
homosexual drivers!

You have proof of this? And just because you don't agree with them...
Personally, I think eating seafood is a disgusting thing... Sick, sick,
sick....
> I declare comp.os.linux.advocacy a total wasteland.
You don't have any credibility to state this. You lost it before you
started to post.
Take Riddic's advice: If you don't like it here, go somewhere else.
