Really, vendors shouldn't have any control over any of their services and be forced to whatever a whiny geek whines about. How dare stores control what they choose the sell, how much they sell it for, and how they sell it?!?
Probably by supplementing their immune system so less energy is devoted to fighting or recovering from sickness and more can be directed into muscle growth. A sick animal isn't going to pack on weight like a "healthy" one. Just stressing some animals can weight loss.
And if everyone torrents everything they watch having new things to torrent wouldn't be a problem either, since there wouldn't be any.
It's like the people who won't get their kids vaccinated because they know about herd immunity. Get enough freeloaders and it stops working.
So for the remaining people who do watch TV they need to make the commercials even more attention grabbing to compensate, making them even more annoying. So hats off to you, freeloading AC, for making commercials even more annoying.
It's a travesty that stores get to set the prices for anything that they sell! And they get to choose what they sell! In the name of freedom we must force stores to sell what we want them to sell and at the price we want to sell it at!

If you can find a copy, most likely digital and illegal as the physical version is rather rare bordering on non-existent, The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments has a lot of experiments that can be done with household items or other relatively common components.

It's super hip to not be fashionable, and to make an effort to be seen not being fashionable, so the super hip have to go to great pains to clearly define some other group as being fashionable.
Imagine the horror of a super hipster when they realize that they are fashionable in their bashing of the 'fashionable' group that they defined.
More food for less work meant more "leisure" time. Preventing children from spending all their time in the factory gave them the time necessary to be educated. "A major one is having the time to be educated." directly preceding the section.
One could understand an argument of "Why Software Freedom is Important", "Apple is crap!" is too shallow for anything but simple agreement or disagreement.
"they will listen to you, agree with you, then buy Apple anyway" that's called the "nod politely and slowly back away" maneuver.
And I'm sure your Android phone speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom, and has the grail already.

"he built-up Facebook by being mean, cut-throat, and ruthless."
This is the ideal hero of the free market and its god, The Invisible Hand.
Oh but it does have "hip" value, otherwise you wouldn't be trotting it out and saying it isn't hip.
It's hip to hate on Apple. I hate to break it to you, but you're a hipster too.
They have been deprived of the right to control (re)production of their work, in other words their copyright.
Of course slashbots know that there is more than one meaning to piracy which is why they can pick the one least appropriate to the topic.
I hope you meant mph.
I know SI units are all the rage, but you have to remember to change the numbers when you change the units. 60 km/h is all of 36mph.

Are you saying that unemployment is more important than genocides? We shouldn't be worried about unemployment when there are genocides.
And why do cops care about burglaries when there are homicides? Isn't solving homicides more important than property crimes?
Why does X do Y when Z is more important?

But, but, it has OPEN Data! Not just data, open data!
And /shifty_eyes disruptive technology! That's gotta be all subversive! Down with the man, man!

'round these here parts if you ain't paranoid, you're sheeple. You don't want to be sheeple, do ya?
"As someone who believes what you buy is YOURS, I find your disdain for freedom to be extremely distasteful."
If you believe that then doesn't it follow that something isn't yours until you buy it, yet you admit to pirating?
