"It's a travesty that rational discussion is impossible." You'd have to offer some first. All I see is hysterical ranting coupled with bog-standard downvote whinging.

"Edit: 1 downvote from the pro-drugs crowd." And some more from the "tired of seeing people complaining about downvotes crowd". Sometimes opinions are just crap. Yours was. Get over it.

I'm a realistic person. That's what it usually takes to fix these situations. Pick up a history book.

I left. And the country I moved to has lurched even further into the realm of "authoritarian police state" than the US. I'm of the opinion that all Western governments are headed down this path, inevitably. It's going

They didn't really use any of the Windows UI widgets. Tough to blame Windows for that.

I mean, this is the same company that, during the keynote today, repeated the lie that they're the mob that brought us the computer mouse. People just accept Apple's misstatements and half-truths and outright lies as fact now.

There was no "early success" for the iPod. It was a failure until the third generation, when it finally got PC support.

The only way the NSA will ever be shut down would be as a result of the total collapse of the US federal government. While I'm steadfastly rooting for this to happen, I also fear that whatever replaces it will be much worse.

It's way more than just US schools, and it's way more than just admissions. Entire companies have been set up which are dedicated to helping Chinese students cheat their way through university: http://www.stuff.co.nz&#

The people in Chattanooga don't seem to be complaining one little bit about "American municipal politics" with their 1 gigabit symmetric connections. We've had to put up with this bullshit from Comcast and TWC for decade

What an absolutely idiotic lawsuit. Why are they also asking for Syria and North Korea? Have they been reading tired old G. W. Bush speeches about the "Axis of Evil"?

This isn't the end of it either. In a month or two, 475 dollars will look nice.

Maybe they'll add premiums for non-partnered manufacturers, or secretly charge them much more slowly, sort of like the Comcast and Verizon of the roads.

They're both great wedge issues to get draconian legislation rammed through a reactionary Congress. The excuse-du-jour is either terrorism or child porn.
