    No it's not. There are several fine desktop options available for those who decide to use Linux. What the world is waiting for is adults who recognize the advantage of breaking free from monopolistic, profit-driven, central control of their electronic/online experience.

    I see Windows users as the abused members of a dysfunctional relationship. Constantly treated as though their opinion or desires are worthless, threatened that they couldn't survive or be wanted in another relationship, or, their success is dependent on staying with the abuser.
    Good parents don't raise their kids on monopolistic, corporate profit driven, malware/spyware.
    Microsoft is evil. Don't tell your children otherwise.

  13. More over-rich people. on Jeff Bezos Shares Video of 10,000-Year Clock Project (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    We need more over-rich humans, they obviously know best how to wisely govern the wealth they are blessed to control. That's why the world is so good for everyone, and getting better.
    Consider that we know the world's wealthy elite gather and associate quite a bit. They've had access to near all info for a while now, control the majority of the world's resources, and we've still got war and hunger. Less than a 100 humans could gather and end most, if not all, of the world's major issues tomorrow and there wouldn't be much to stop them short of armed revolution. They own everything. Make that mebbe 300 of the richest and it's not even a contest within "state" structures.
    Now consider what they do with their wealth and influence. $42 mil for a "toy" clock, cars in orbit, multi-million $ yachts and homes, needless waste and excess in all they do, No economic model can survive a gluttonous, greedy, selfish few ruling over many.
    Giving individual humans too much wealth and influence has rarely if ever ended well.

    When I first heard about Trump running for President I eyerolled and shook my head as hard as anyone else at the sorry state of affairs our country had fallen to. Then I watched the first Rep. primary debate where Trump noted he'd used $ to get what he wanted out of most of the other candidates on the stage with him and that it was a sorry state of affairs that he hoped to change. Then I took the time to go to his website and look over his positions and found myself thinking "Hey, that's not too bad if he actually does it." Then I watched the constant attacks from BOTH sides of our 2-party fiasco of government and thought "Mebbe we've got something here..."
    Trump is the first major party Pres. candidate I've voted for in over 2 decades and so far I'm fairly pleased with the results. I tried sounding the alarm everywhere I could that if his election wasn't accompanied by a HUGE turnover of incumbent establishment types there would mostly be stalemate while the criminals fought against needed reforms and I feel fairly vindicated on that point so far. I now hope that many more voters are waking up to just how far, deep and wide the corruption of our government is, and will do their part to vote out all elected officials who have not distinguished themselves by pointing out the widespread corruption in America's political systems.
