Spoken like someone who's never tried to open a laptop power supply to repair it, they are all a nightmare to open. In my opinion this doesn't indicate "design/thoughts" but rather an attempt to make sure they are thrown away and a new one bought if you ever have any problems with them.
What's been annoying me recently is people telling me to "look at history". Do they realise just how big history is? I am pretty sure you could find a precedent for just about anything if you looked hard enough.
My point is ownership becomes a fairly abstract concept in a world without money or scarcity. Why do you actually need to own anything? By what means do you acquire these things? When you can instantly have the things you need, or carry them with you at all times why do you even need a permanent abode?
Any boss should be willing and able to roll up his sleeves and do a job he expected an underling to do, if they can't then how can they even know if that person is doing it correctly?
You seem to show a lack of imagination if you're trying to picture a money free economy where we all own property. Why on earth would I need to own a property on a Hawaiian beach? If that were the case I'd need about 200 houses all over the globe depending on where I felt like visiting...
Because have you seen what's been done to the timeline, especially if you include the TV series where John Connor is stuck in a past where he isn't the head of the revolution Kyle Reece is. It's gotten to Primer levels of WTF.
Frankly I doubt you have a good idea what fun is, let alone an ability to make it. I'd like to see a "Don't believe in Libertarians" one if that's OK please. Because I struggle to believe that anyone could be so short sighted as to think that it proposed anything that could benefit society.
You seem to be somewhat evangelical yourself about both libertarianism, and religion (you linked "answersingenesis.com") so maybe you should stop with your crazy accusations and accept that most Atheists just wish the religious would shut up.
You're being helped countless times every day by everyone else who lives in your society, unfortunately you're too ignorant to notice or appreciate it.
I can see all the left wing atheists now, cowering, terrified of the devastating belief of Archangel Michael the rambling libertarian and his half composed thoughts.
So I could legally manufacture a more-or-less perfect replica of the gun used in Newtown.
I'm pretty sure you couldn't, certainly not without about ten years of practice and $100K worth of equipment. Of course after all that time and practice you'd probably be considerably wiser and realise that there's no point.
Gobshite indeed. Interestingly it is a British word. Which makes me wonder all the more. I don't know what kind of watch dog you are talking about, surely the whole point of a watch dog is you know that it's there and it makes a lot of noise to scare off intruders? Much like your post makes you sound. When you're all grown you can put away your childish things.
At first I thought this was a joke, it was a much better comment like that. What else is do you like better when it's the Libertarian version? I'm going to take a stab in the dark here and say everything?
The desire is an atrocious phone, barely usable with Cyanogen, clockwork or the native HTC sense. There is nothing about it comparable to the iphone 4, except possibly the camera (I will freely admit Apple were way behind the cameras but with the 4 they finally seemed to catch up).

Or crack the solder joints holding the power socket to the mobo. Then you can get arcing or failure to charge.
When will someone produce finally produce a good Linux blue screen analyser? A question I'm sure we're all asking ourselves.
But then the text overflows boxes and looks horrendous. It isn't consistent across all software either.
You think they'll put a battery in this generation so it remembers what the date is after you switch it off at the wall?
No but I know how long the battery will last with the mic always on. Besides, the sound of my keys jingling in my pocket isn't that exciting.

What would you buy the things you owned with?

Jeez, your house must stink worse than your attitude. Clean your toilet!

Because how well it reinforces my prejudices isn't one of the factors I use to decide how good a film is?

Cost of unnecessary retraining = Bad.
Loss of productivity due to needless changes = Bad.
If they pay you in fur they can't be high value customers. What are they, Hudson bay trappers?

A good number of Libertarians think they can speak for everyone. You seem to be one of them. I would speculate more Atheists are humanist.
Bug fixes mean nothing to you? You can't be running a stock Android from one of the manufacturers if that's the case.
