Linux Games – Pay What You Want, It’s Still Too Much

Folks, as many of you are aware, the free software ‘linux’ quacks have been at wit’s end to try and come up with some kind of remunerative business model to justify their linux ‘open source’ operating system. Well in case you didn’t have time to read the ‘techie’ journals the copyleft thugs have cooked-up yet another scam. They’re calling it the ‘Humble Indie Bundle‘ in which a variety of poorly-coded linux games are being given away on a ‘donate what you want’ scheme. It’s yet another sad example of a ‘free’ copyleft software that’s a little weak on the ‘free’ part.

Humble Indie Bundle: by letting people donate for a bundle of games that includes World of Goo, Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru HD, and Penumbra Overture the copylefties are hoping to scam some money for their ‘free’ software. Guess freedom isn’t quite so free now is it!

The linux users are all cheering saying that the reason the average donation by Linux users is $14.56 compared to Windows users $8.06 is because they’re more serious about supporting software. Well guess what, nothing could be further from the truth: linux users don’t understand what it’s like to have to pay for software, that’s why when they finally are presented with the option they’re so confused they wind-up giving twice what any sane Windows using person would pay. When you’re used to ‘bits torrenting’ copyrighted games off the interweb like linux users do all the time, paying for things becomes difficult to comprehend. Do the right thing and refuse to go along with this linux ‘Indie Bundle‘ scam: don’t give them anything, and tell your friends to do likewise.

Always Right,
Charles Roast

    While it seems your thinking this a “Liberal, Communist, Gay scam”, They links to the acutal CHARITIES. Besides I’ve played one of those and they had very well coding. And Charles? Your wrong, I don’t see anything that’s a scam.

    I fail to see what is wrong with this. They are some incredibly good games, you can buy the for however much you want and money goes to charity!

    I stumbled across your blog today and after reading a few of your posts, I’m still left wondering if this is all one big joke or not. Your reasoning is so convoluted and misdirected that it’s scary. You say people are being “fooled” into paying twice what the average “sane” Windows user would pay. Are you kidding me? Have you ever known anyone in the world to go to a store, accidentally pay double for something and not get change back?

    Secondly, if it weren’t for the severity of the situation, I would say your more recent article on the BP spill is straight up hilarious. You compare the spill to a tiny drop of oil in a large pool. Have you seen the images that NASA has released from space of the oil spill? If not, please allow me to indulge you.

    Now, if you were hovering over your pool analogy, do you think you’d be able to spot one drop with the naked eye? Probably not. But do you see all that grey matter in the ocean? Yeah, that’s oil.

    Your blog infuriates and entertains me all at the same time. Keep writing or don’t, because somehow you’ve found a way to be equally insulting and hilarious.

    I just hope you don’t believe all the insane that you spout here.

    Hello.
    I just found this page, and i must say that i am shocked about all this hatered. Why are you so mad?

    Ofcourse i understand that you are supporting America aand there’s nothing wrong about that. (I am Finland fanatic and i am really proud of my country. and the things that we have done.)

    And no. We are not communists and devil worshippers. We are peace loving peoples that belive in god and still let other peoples have their ways and beliefs.

    But i don’t understand that, why you are hating everything so much, and i judge that you are using religion as a weapon against other peoples who have their own life and culture. What would Jesus (who is from middle east, by the way) say?

  8. Charles Roast III June 24th, 2010 8:37 PM

    And no. We are not communists and devil worshippers. We are peace loving peoples that belive in god and still let other peoples have their ways and beliefs.

    Well I’m sorry to have to break it to you, but there’s only one God, and His only son Jesus. So yes, in fact you are evil communists and devil worshipers. That’s just the truth!

    Always Right

    The Finnish, are not Satanists nor communist, they have a captailist system like the US and the religion majority’s Lutheran Christain.

    This so called reverend is just some narrow minded warlover. And all those comments people are sending to him, can tell that even Americans think he’s just dumb shit.

    Obviously.

    I am from Finland and first of all it is important to tell how much we suffered from being neighbors of the Sovjet Union. We had two wars against the communism and USA didn’t help us. It helped the Sovjet Union. So, who are the bastards now? We had two opportunities: to loose our freedom and independency of to get aid from the Nazi Germany which was then not yet seen as a criminal country as it is seen today.

    International bankers (many of them are Americans) financed Lenin and Hitler, and they are the only winners of WW1 and 2. Your economy is ruined because of those banksters and the core of your monetary system is rotten to its core. The federal reserve (FED) is not federal nor there is no reserve. It is completely owned by private banks and therefore by private bankers.

    Microsoft is seen as a tool to spread a spy network to the whole world. Because of its closed nature it is wide open to any crackers (tens or hundreds of millions of Windows-viruses) but honest developers can’t fix errors lying in the Windows system or programs developed to Windows.

    Conclusions? Windows is a modern day version of communism. Like the Sovjet Union it is closed, monopolistic, driven by dictators, against humanity, and the whole world would be a better place without it.

    By the way, I’m a christian but I don’t recognize you to be one. I could have thought your post to be a sarcastic presentation and some kind of flame bait but you are not funny, not promoting free world, free enterprise, freedom to open software, so you are only provoking.

    United States of America: A great country with fantastic people led by greed and miserable bastards. The vast majority of americans don’t even no who are the ones having all the power.

    The people don’t know it because they are focused on all the crap amuzing things. Their school system is one of the worst in the world. Drugs are everywhere (thanks to corrupted politicians). False flag operations are common locally and globally. Wars are seen as a good for business so they are created.

    M3 (speculative money, ‘debt money’ not cash and what is on bank deposits) is not published by the FED anymore while it was sky rocketing. All money is practically debt and no one seems to realise tho whom they are owning.

    You urgently need transparency to your money system, political system and in your operating systems!

    Consider this:

    - Ability to read is seen as a right.
    - To get a basic level education is human right.
    - Government, political system and their financiers are a puppet theatre but the true nature of all this is closed as Microsoft Windows operating system.

    Just get rid of freemasons and all the secret societies which enables criminal opportunities to the smarter members. More stupid ones are allways those who are talking nonsense about charity and some noble principals and therefore are usefule to give an expression what the society is all about, but they are seeing the big picture. That’s why they are just used.

    ” but they are seeing the big picture. That’s why they are just used.”

    Edit:

    More stupid ones are allways those who are talking nonsense about charity and some noble principals and therefore are usefule to give an expression what the society is all about, but they are seeing the big picture. That’s why they are just used.
    but they are _not_ seeing the big picture. That’s why they are just used.
