I don't know what would be the equivalent to "libertarian" in swedish, but in sweden, Folkpartiet (Peoplesparty"(!)), aka the liberals, seems to be the most fascist one of the bourgeoisies coalition. They're the ones asking for tougher discipline in schools and language tests for immigrants and whatnot... And they are not the most "neo-liberal" (as in free trade) party, either. So, it's funny how a freedom loving person as myself can't resonate with any of the 3 variants of the word libre in this country. Who the fuck is in control of definitions?
Naming things after dead people can be not appropriate too. In Stockholm, Sweden, they named one of the new (in 2000ish) subway cars after Swedish pop star Ted Gärestad, who committed suicide by throwing himself under a train...
Businessmodel schmusinessmodel... If people want newspapers printed or movies made, they will pay for them. They just won't pay for obsoleted middle men. With giant movie studios bankrupted, imagine the huge communities that would form since people would still want to make and watch professional movies.
such inexplicable evolution results as our retinas being wired backwards [...] result in a system that's thoroughly confusing and that in retrospect appears insane.
Well, that's because evolution is a hoax. We we're created by means of insane design!
And Ubuntu is the shit.
Seriously, though... With garnering so much talk about their shitty theme, when they get rid of the brown, it will be all the rage all over the internet and presto - The year of the Linux desktop will have arrived and usher in a bright new future where John Lennon's imagine is not a just a dream any more.
Finnish, (badly translated) proverb:
"The first time is also an occurrence." Who wants to be the first one screwed? How are you going to unscrew yourself?
A capitalist doesn't care about anything but capital. People are a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but the role of a archetypal capitalist is to make money from owning capital.
I do hope not too many movie studio executives and the like will starve, but we are now capable of enriching our lives with varied and abundant culture and knowledge. We have the power to make everyone in the world (with access to the net) a little happier and wiser! Humanity would be crazy not to copy it's collective ass off, IMO.
Ok, so some people who are just into the arts for the money would stop doing what they used to do. Good riddance.
If there was no other way to get an epic movie about frogs, or whatever, I'm sure people who want it would come together and finance it up front. Today it's all ready the consumers who pay for all the movies and music being made. We just pay after the fact, and we line the pockets of the now obsolete middlemen too.
"Capitalism works great most of the time, but can easily be abused to bring about situations like this. [...] There's a whole other world that doesn't get reported."
Would that be a world of make belief, with pixies and leprechauns and magic frogs with funny little hats?
Sharing, not to mention linking to, copyrighted content is acceptable in the same way that it was acceptable for Jesus to make copies of those fishes and loaves of bread. Culture, knowledge and information is food for the mind. We can distribute it virtually for free. Hallelujah!
a "state study"(?)(Statens beredning för medicinsk utvärdering.) concludes childrens vaccine "Safe and efficient". No link to autism.

So, I'd urge believers of a link between autism and vaccination to start picketing the Swedish government, demanding some answers.
Maybe that would get more debate into more homes, since as it is now, some parents are putting my child at risk (vaccines don't give 100% protection).
Measels can make you retarded and/or dead.
What if I refuse to buy anything advertised in those ads, should I still have to watch them? If I had a TV, Would I be allowed to change channels when I'd watch a commercial network and there were ads on? I want to please our old advertising overlords. Please, tell me what to do!

Mandatory facial recognition is not "OMG, BIG BROTHER!1!!!!1!!"?

Why not save species from extinction if we can?

Then maybe those countries with high average wealth should distribute it better.

And something helped cause him to be the way he was. Not just his free choice.
With all that they'll still be about proprietary code, not freedom. It's like paying Mussolini for a polished car.
The thing is to set up a system where there's no point to spam. Think outside the capitalist box.
Cool!
:), though?
