Why would you care if rich people got a monthly stipend wish is a VERY small part of the taxes they pay? The beauty of just giving it to every citizen is that it is virtually immune to problems.
As soon as you start with exceptions, things go towards trouble.
I use windows for: At work (in part due to support, I should use windows since that is what most of our customers do). Outlook, basically the same reason as above. Vsphere. Games, it's the best gaming platform by far. Better experience with flash, especially video players.
Why I prefer gnu/linux: Scrolling, pasting and general navigation on a laptop is far superior to windows, I always feel stunted on windows both with trackpoint and trackpad. Workspaces, fully essential on a laptop and all solutions on windows are crap. Flexibility in general is something I adore, so many small things that I do like to do (like having good keybinds to my mpd client, changing what keystrokes do and so forth). Good terminals, in windows, I use a virtual machine to get a decent terminal, heck, I even ssh from that machine to my windows machine when using powershell. Many of the games I play are old ones and can be played through wine.
So, I'm not keeping away from windows and I'm partly locked into having it due to professional constraints, basically.
We are only capable of existing in these numbers by depleting fossile fuels for both transport and the growth of food. That is the main issue, we ARE over-populated but we just keep marching on.
Mostly because she is so forward, the whole thing about the gorgeous girl doing all the flirting and that is enough is quite appealing to a lonely, shy teenager. Depends a bit on what you mean by sex object, but she has very little personality other than flirty, kind and wanting to save the world.
In essence, she is defined by being a woman instead of being a character first and a gender second.
This is the essential basis for sex object, not in the "dresses slut" kind of way, but in the "Males are the norm, therefore females need less character to define themselves".
Simply put, female characters are usually foils, not characters.
Actually, the more we learn about bird/dinosaur similarities, the more it seems like dinosaurs aren't extinct. The genetics between birds and dinosaurs are very few.
So, scientifically speaking, saying dinosaurs are extinct isn't entirely correct, or rather, almost meaningless since dinosaur isn't a very well-defined scientific term.
Matte screen overlays don't work well with capacitive screens. There is research being done on how to perfect such techniques since, well, matte screens are way better according to most profesional users.
You missed the part about gross? It's very hard to hide how much gross income you've got, pretty much all the dodgy business is due to manipulating net income in various measures.

This is not market speech.
This is a rude nerdish remark.
If I ever saw a better evidence than someone being rude for not being a shill, I didn't notice it.
The taxes aren't exactly fixed.
And, salaries for low-wage people is fundamentally more important for competition on an international scale than high-wage people.
So, higher taxes on higher income to give everyone a basic stipend would lower wages and create a more stable market.
If society can produce enough without jobs, it's just a matter of dealing resources.
Also, since wages can be lowered overall since you don't need as much money, the power to compete with other countries increases.

Market speech...
Less resources and less work being a bad thing.
The main issue with a planned economy is that as long as there aren't enough basic resources to go around you need to divide them somehow.
If we reach a level of sufficient resources for everyone, the free market will be inherently redundant.
So, what you are saying is that if android had all the heavy features of a desktop OS it would be great since, without those, it's so sleek and quick?
Let me tell you something here, those heavy programs are heavy for a reason.
Basically, you are saying that you are more adept at using windows, and therefore someone else should be as well.
Logical failure.
When things fuck up, I prefer Linux sence then I know I can fix the issue.
Things happen to fuck up a lot more on the desktop on linux though.
Not all benefits can be fully quantifiable or tangible.
You never know when weird discoveries can have monumental effects.
Besides, it's not like there's a lack of research about cancer, HIV and other diseases.
Err, in general, when discussing differences between sexes, you are always a sort of an ambassador of your gender.
But, yeah, it intensifies when there are great numerical differences.
Google ran all feeds once and then built their own database from it.
If one person had cached the latest XKCD, everyone had.
Presumably, of course.
Not perfect, but it's pretty close and I store everything on my own server.

Ubuntu does not, have never, and will never put any user in sudoers.
The default is allowing the groups admin and sudo, no more, no less.
Anything else would be bloody retarded.

Constant pain and stomach issues didn't exist before?
BULLSHIT.
In my case, it goes way faster torrenting a bluray than going out and renting it, especially when factoring in the return and selection.

Yuna is a typical Japanese Sex Object, the same can definitely be argued abouth Aeris.
Lara Croft, really?
Don't know about the other two.
THe man who wanted to nuke pretty much half of Asia.
Heck, he was frustrated he didn't get to do it.

Because every bloody time there's a browser-specific error on a site.
It's still IE.

There where already people living on earth, the 50k remaining ones bred into humanity.
Or something along those lines.
