Well, if you EVER need to use an AC, the LEDs are better.
And if you use gas, wood, oil or coal powered heating (which burns the fuel on site at 100% efficiency) and coal or gas electricity then you will save some power. Maybe. (Transport of heating fuel is a factor, I guess).
I think the etymology is a little unclear. A troll is a nasty forum denizen, but trolling is probably derived from "trawling for noobs". I guess they sort of merged.
I have an iPod, and a cheap nasty Nokia phone. I want my MP3 to be fun to use, but I want my phone to actually work. Expensive phones tend to die after a day of use, which is just annoying.
Why don't they just run flash in a virtualized Linux box if they want to run it in *BSD? Sure, it's a bit of a hack, but any OS that can't show a kitten playing guitar is not, in my opinion, feature complete.
Craigslist can compete, especially if they try to edge in (using their already strong networks). Twitter, Facebook, and the other revenue-free social networks could also try.
It would be a hard slog - eBay still has the advantage. But if people find that it's easier to sell small commodity items (like iPods) on another network, it could get serious.
Twisted is hard to learn. It's the sort of thing that programmers will re-implement just to avoid reading the documentation.
Or maybe they wanted to have control. Whatever the case, they would have know. Everybody (who uses python for web work) would know a bit about Twisted... it's on the front page of python.org
Many games went downhill when they went to 3D. Even HMM (a strategy game) became less playable, because stuff was harder to click on than in iso. People like 3D for the graphics, not for the ability to get lost, for the ability to lose "obvious" items behind ferns, and other annoyances.
GP says it's increasing slowly because the technophiles already use it, and normal people just go to http://video.baidu.com/
Also, other big services (like, say, video chat, google maps, etc) are breaking into the mainstream.
A corollary (sorry, lemma... my math is weak nowdays) to that argument is that most people don't want to wait for anything on the internet. If it doesn't start playing immediately (i.e. YouTube), nobody who hasn't heard of slashdot will watch it.
Just toss in a bunch of identical USB drives (for redundancy).
Even if USB is phased out, you should be able to get buy a junk computer that can read it. The Mac Classic was released in 1990, and you can still get those off eBay.
Your only risk is that the junk hardware collectors lose interest. Perhaps due to some piece of hardware coming out that is even more exciting than computers. I'm guessing some type of robot.
It's not just about being picked off by predators. The real advantage of humans is that we are *smart*, and can communicate better than the other smart chimps. It's not much good having decent vocal chords if you're just going to ignore your fellow man.

Another good question: Who has ever sent and email that they wouldn't want a third party reading?

Better still, FTA: "f you look around the company at other places where things like this are important, Windows Mobile rises to the top.".
If you are putting yourself in a place where Windows Mobile rises to the top, you are in a very bad place.
No, nerds are just hopeless if one of the answers is "automate".

And every year, the MS OS boots slower.

I have a solution - stronger patent laws! Reward the innovators, and then they will be more popular.
You mean .... Newton wasn't a popular kid at school?

There's a story about an old man, who never took any drugs, because they "weren't natural".
His doctor noticed that he was on Lithium, a powerful anti-depressant.
A previous doctor had proscribed it, but it was OK, because it was a "salt".
HTML would be a good office productivity format. Just add some layout tags for paper format ...

FPS is the exception.
It would be fun explaining that to Steve.
Rock falls. Everybody dies. Easy.
Perhaps you could hire a team that likes SCUBA diving, or musical theater, or hiking, or ... anything really.
He could try a counter-suit. Or maybe he's busy reading The Count of Monte Cristo ...
Doesn't a felony generally require intent, as well as action?
By night, they have enough power to observe you. But not enough to fire their exterminator beams. Great.

Relax. The Air Force is involved. It wouldn't go ahead if it was inefficient.
