Do you feel that a driving an automobile does not require a license that shows at least minimum capacity to actually operate said vehicle?
You just don't understand Libertarianism. In Libertarian Fantasy Land (tm), the Free Market (tm) solves all problems. Got run over by a guy without a license? Guess you'd better vote with your wallet next time!
Why is it only video games that get this kind of "eww, that's too gross for ANYONE to see" attitude? What about all of the sadistic films (like the Saw series) where you get to watch people mutilating and dismembering themselves, being disemboweled, brains and organs flying everywhere? War movies where young kids lie on a beach, eviscerated, screaming for their mothers? People go to see those things in droves. But wait, you can see that stuff in a VIDEO GAME? Stop the presses!
Get over it, human beings love violence and have since the first violent cave painting 50,000 years ago. Just because there's a shiny controller attached to it doesn't make it a bad thing.

I don't think that's the kind of "party" he's talking about.

I'm going to have to take out a mortgage on my house to get the monster cable version.
Dropbox is probably bigger and better engineered than anything the NHS could whip up

And yet, it still can't render CSS3 colors correctly. What's the problem here? Wasn't Opera at the forefront of web standards compliance at one point?
