    They have to make an in-app purchase to buy more tokens, of course.

    Unless you hire away Red Hat devs to be your support team, you're going to get better and cheaper support if you pay Red Hat instead of paying employee salaries. Some companies using Red Hat (or SLES) have a few thousand servers to support. They don't want to waste time on someone who messes around with RHES or SLES in their spare time. They want the experts.

    It would be a good thing for the world if you were strangled in your sleep. By your mother.

    Weird. So it does a good job even though it gets the job 50% wrong. I hope I am never beholden to any work you've done.

    Do people like you even know how to breath, or are you all on ventilators? Right now, it's worth it to keep the ISS in orbit. One day, it won't be. Why this is difficult to understand is a mystery, but is probably related to your brain actually being a clump of feces.

  7. You are an idiot of grand proportions. The chances of humans going extinct have no bearing what-so-ever on whether space is a dead end.

    Apple makes a considerable amount of their software available as Open Source. They most definitely do not believe that a walled garden is the only way to live. They do it because it makes them money.

    As someone who thinks you're an extremely stupid piece of whale excrement, I assume you know nothing at all about anything. I am sure Statoil has no engineers on staff to figure stuff out. They totally missed the boat by not contacting Mr. AC EE.

    Please drown yourself in a kiddie pool.

    Yeah, those silly engineers and accountants forgot to ask Mr. AC during the planning phase. People like that need to take long walks off short piers. Preferably short piers extending into the North Sea.

    In two or three million years, when humans have a post-scarcity economy, we can worry about bankers.

    What other value could someone have to society other than his ability to contribute? That there are entertainers of various sorts who make millions belies your implication that the value has to be a job in the conventional sense.

    There is no such thing as an objectively-"correct" price for anything. There's no physical law which governs economics.

    It seems that people want one of the following:

    • - a single streaming service with a single monthly fee.
    • - multiple services that each charge a small amount per item

    People don't want multiple streaming services, of which only a small amount of content is consumed from each.

    I would start by slashing your throat and leaving you to die. Because you are a fucked-up retard who is good for literally nothing. It's practically a miracle that your parents weren't tortured to death for allowing you to grow out of infancy.

    Of books? The situations are not at all comparable. You don't have to subscribe to 5 different publishers' services to get books from each. You can go to their website for free, or to Amazon or B&N or Book Depository.
