Why is it that you have to consider people idiots for not agreeing with your opinions? How is being a specwhore objectively smarter than liking clean design and a good experience?
No is saying they wanted to see it. They were completely indifference.
You don't actually know that for anyone but yourself. In your rush to defend a movie by insulting someone who wasn't into it, you're just skipping right by basic logic.
The difference being I'm not the one shitting on something I didn't pull off. Congrats on your many achievements. Watson dwarfs them, so despite your ego, you're still just "some dude on Slashdot."
Since the "controversy" in question is some dude on Slashdot shitting on an achievement orders of magnitude bigger than anything he will ever achieve, I sincerely doubt it made their radar.
I have found that Apple haters require the belief that Apple users are stupid, although I'm not going to guess why. I'll leave the pop psychology to you, since you are clearly a genius of the first order.
You know, there's just no logical sense in the position that you would buy a platform known to be locked down so that you can "do whatever you want with it."
Face it, your position doesn't stand up to a second's worth of scrutiny, even if you manage to repeat it often enough that you believe it.
The "reasons" are that they provide a service and they wish to make a profit from that service. To that end, they have invested large sums of money. It's not rocket science. I know Slashdot is the home of the attitude that making money is evil, but frankly, that's bullshit idealism and it doesn't hold in the real world.
I don't get it, should I respect property rights and follow the GPL as RMS wants, or should I ignore property rights as RMS wants and ignore the GPL? I can't decide!
No one is forced to support a corporation, whereas governments rule through coercive force. I know that doesn't sink into you anti-corporation people too well, but since most of your views are founded on poor understanding of reality in the first place, I don't worry too much about that.
Make being a nerd entertaining and people will care. Otherwise, why should they? Do you have a reason beyond "it aligns with my desires" or is that as far as it goes?
What "facts" and "evidence" were presented there? I saw a bunch of opinions and assertions. Apparently you agree with them, but that alone does not elevate them to the realm of "fact."

Yeah, it take a backbone to have a negative knee-jerk reaction based on emotion. That's it.

Sorry.
Spend less time bitching on Slashdot and more time producing something.
Since the "controversy" in question is some dude on Slashdot shitting on an achievement orders of magnitude bigger than anything he will ever achieve, I sincerely doubt it made their radar.
The main thing Watson showed by its mistakes was that it had no hardware monitoring the studio.
Yeah, I guess when people who are attacking you tell you to die, it's easy to misinterpret that.
The problem with this whole thing is that both sides are retards. No matter who wins, we all lose.
Well, duh. How many people really thought it was an altruistic contribution from the bottom of Amazon's heart?
I don't know if that was "thinking" exactly.

Because then pedantic nerds can't pick useless fights on Slashdot to makes themselves feel like they matter.

It's pretty simple to say "I really really want what that person has, so someone should take it from him and give it to me."

If the matter within the universe is expanding, it has to be expanding into something.
Why? What makes you think your assumptions about the nature of the non-universe have any validity?
The truth is trolling at Slashdot.
Considering the horrible things you can do to sites that support Unicode fully, I'm not super surprised.
Please, Internet, stop trying to force your sorry culture on the real world. This has nothing to do with memes.

What's with all the class warfare on Slashdot today? Has someone declared the revolution open?
Come on, you've been here long enough to know you have to play to the moral watchdogs of Slashdot.
