Chrome OS probably won't spy on you itself, it doesn't need to. It's the web applications which Chrome OS encourages you to use that spy on you. That privacy-intruding experience is available on every browser and every operating system, it's which web app you use that matters.
I don't really mind regulation on speech, weapons, trial by jury, protection from excessive punishment or the right to remain silent, but quarter troops in my home and I'll blow their heads off with or without legal justification!
I agree. I'm sure there are many astronauts who are willing to take even a 5% risk of dying just for the opportunity to go into space. The few million dollars of wasted training pale in comparison to the loss of the equipment, so there's really no reason why we (as in humanity as a whole, not as in a space organization which needs to maintain PR) should worry this much about safety.
How do chemicals in my food and containers, which cause deformities and may cause even more severe medical issues, possibly make me free?
How does being able to drive without wearing a seatbelt, risking my own life, increasing the burden on first responders, the medical system, etc., make me more free?
There's at least one person out there who, for whatever reason, wants those chemicals. Banning them would hurt him. The rest of the population can simply not buy food that's poisonous, so banning the chemicals, as opposed to simply requiring them to be labeled, does more harm than good. As for the seatbelt, the added gain in comfort and convenience is worth it for some people, and once again people who want to wear seatbelts still can. I would have no problem with denying free medical care to people in car accidents without seatbelts (hey, they took the risk), banning the practice is wrong.
If libertarianism is just a bullshit curtain for the super rich, then anti-prohibitionism is just a bullshit curtain for alcohol sellers. Neither statement is true, and there are normal people who aren't multimillionaires and don't have their fingers over the "fire all sick employees" trigger who support libertarianism, because freedom is right, not because it would benefit them at the expense of everyone else.
When I program using gedit, if there's an error I know that the error is somewhere in the written code in front of me. When I program using some IDE and there's an error, it might be hidden deep within 3 layers of menu options. There's much less control over the situation the second way.
Political correctness is just an impossible game of cat-and-mouse using weird terms until the terms become popular and you have to use newer ones, making reading older texts on subjects like psychological disabilities impossible. When you get streaks of renaming like mongolism -> Down syndrome -> trisomy 21 and stupid -> mentally retarded -> mentally challenged -> differently abled (or whatever the current one is) communicating becomes a nightmare.
If I got a copy of this software my gut instinct would be to break it. I'm just not comfortable with software on my own hard drive working against me, so I would disable it even if I never plan to violate its restrictions.
Where is the skin color in the second one? I just don't see any reference to skin color in the second one but not in the first one. Am I not aware of some cultural meme here?
And what exactly makes the second case at all different from the first? In both cases, someone is being compared to a monkey, implying (presumably) that they're stupid. That's it.
And, no I don't know the answer and I'm not deliberately trying to avoid it.
Wait, what do monkeys have to do with race? Is it because she's black and therefore anything said against her must be viewed through the lens of racism?
That's all good, until the thousand separator comes into the picture. Its purpose is to split up a large number into small bites, just like a comma does with a sentence. So it would be much more logical to use a comma as a thousand separator. As for the period at the end of the sentence, I find it fades in comparison to the much more prominent indicator, which is the big letter that comes at the start of the next one. So the period isn't that significant, and I don't see much of a problem with using it to separate decimals.

What do you have against the University of Nebraska?
Proof that A > A:
A > A
A > 10A / 10
Let: A = 1.7
1.7 > 17/10
1.7 > 1.69999999848
QED.
Productive to society, yes. A net financial benefit to the parents, no.
When I get an error, the compiler also points exactly to the line where the error is. So your insults are completely unwarranted.

Indeed, humanity sucks. For the Horde!

Here you go
Use arrays!
int[] multiply(int[] a, int[] b) {
k = new int(a.length + b.length)
for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < b.length; j++) {
k[i+j] = a[i] * b[j];
if (k[i+j] > 65535) {
k[i+j+1] = int(k[i+j]/65536);
k[i+j] = k[i+j] % 65536;
}
}
}
}
With that accuracy not even a supercomputer could increment fast enough to keep up with inflation.
Don't you mean "Whoosh Reloaded" and then "Whoosh Revolutions"?
So trucks and cars will drive in opposite directions, causing a whole bunch of crashes? So that's the disaster that's supposed to happen in 2012!

On my computer, it looks like a circle interrupted at the top with a vertical line going up from the center.
"Krusty Kharity Klassic"
Krusty: KKK? That's not good!
Don't you mean that clarifies it?
Also, what's the KFK?
I don't know why I read that as:
Ron Paul, the World's greatest porn actress, has been a great influence on American politics.
