Verily I say unto thee, that hanukas spake thusly:
> Why is it always so black and white
Did you attend the same conference as Greg Cox and Linus Torvalds,
by any chance, because you're all parroting the same bullshit?
It's "black and white" because Microsoft are a bunch of criminals.
It's "black and white" because Windows gave the world 1M+ viruses.
It's "black and white" because Ballmer claims "Linux is a cancer".
I don't see much room for artistic interpretation of colour, where
one party is the unilateral aggressor, and the other party is just
reciprocating in self-defence, do you?
Read the following then come back and tell me how grey things are:
