You can't just teach small children facts without being a major factor in bringing them up too. Small children don't have the patience and the mental 'machinery' to stay focused for 6 hours a day. They will start fooling around and disturbing the class, and then teachers will have to correct them. Also, teachers see their pupils awake for much more time than their parents during the week.
Ok. Windows is the old-fashioned explosion-propelled car, Linux is the electric car on batteries and OSX is the electric car with a fuel cell built into it.
2016 will be the year of Linux off the desktop! Woot!
But seriously, I switched to Mac for the same reason as you. I was sick of using crappy open source software for doing simple things in complicated ways. I gladly paid a few euros for some programs that were much much better than their open source equivalent.
Why is it so important to preserve the human race? We keep wiping ourselves out: many great civilizations have perished because all the available land was used up for food. Now we are able to make our whole planet uninhabitable for ourselves, and quote a long way on our way to doing exactly that. We are unsustainable and we should therefore die out. And besides, after you're dead, what does it matter to you what happens to humanity?
Children up to about the age of 7 should be allowed to develop their imagination while the brain is most plastic to it. Later they can strengthen their use of rules and cold discipline and control when they become older and more cynical.
Indeed. Five year old kids should play with balls and dolls and cars and sand and mud and Lego, not with computers. Let them discover the world they live in first before chaining them to a computer and letting them do 'tasks.'

There are nerds on /. who are not programmers, you know.
If you start a kickstarter I will back you! :D
What currency do you use?
If we hadn't spent so much money on pointless wars we'd be on our way to the next solar system by now.
The fact that you care about that says more about you than about them fanbois.
Don't feed the troll, please.
As far as I can remember freeware has always been horrible on Windows.
It's a knack, making that many spelling errors in just one 'sentence.'

Indeed! Important stuff, this.

Probably because Donald isn't president yet.
What is the difference between reflected light?
Indeed. I was just going to post that phone hacking is also a Real Risk.
That is actually very smart. Oops, sorry, I deleted all the info on it and bricked the phone. Good luck! :)
Finally someone who talks sense about the Cloud.
I didn't know astroturfing was still a thing.
I think they started at least thirty years too late.
They made my father's computer pretty useless when he upgraded to Windows 10.

Smallfoot.
One bar is not a tremendous pressure.

If it isn't tested for whatever reason, it's a hypothesis, not a theory.
