If Amazon wins the bid will there be a product page where CIA employees can rate the service like we do when we buy a toaster?
"Five Stars. Amazon helped our CIA division keep our constitutional-violating secrets away from an unsuspecting American public. I even got to get back at that NSA guy who spied on my hot girlfriend's text messages. That take George!"
There are already robots that automate your unskilled work as well. And in the interim there are billions of humans entering the workforce who would literally die for your standard of living.

Sure, I'll tell you again. Even though the power consumption drops for each new process shrink the heat drop isn't commensurate because the transistors are packed more tightly together. Do a search online about how poorly Ivy Bridge OC's vs Sandy Bridge on a relative CPU frequency basis.
It's laughable how small the performance gains are between recent generations of Core processors. I realize there are other improvements like power consumption and integrated GPU performance but the desktop gamer isn't going to drop another grand to save watts or get better performance on an IGPU he never will use anyway.
They're throwing good money after bad. Microsoft is like a dinosaur that used to make money crushing rocks but finds itself in a new world that requires hands and opposable thumbs.
A pedestrian crossing the street outside the marked cross walk at Abner Ave. was killed today when a Patrolling Robot experienced a malfunction while writing a traffic citation at the scene. Authorities aren't clear yet on what happened but when paramedics arrived at the scene they found the robot's probe impaled in the suspects anus and a blank blue screen indicating an IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL exception.
Hello, I'm a used iPhone. I have cost you over $2,000 in cellular service fees. I'm the gift that keeps on charging, which is useful since my battery isn't replaceable. We here at Apple would like to keep our customers on the hamster wheel of overpriced and stale innovation, so today Apple is pleased to announce our iPhone Trade-In Program. Trade in your existing iPhone and we'll give you credit toward a new iPhone that does everything your existing iPhone does without any of those pesky and useful features found on Android phones. Oh, and I come in new fun colors too!
Great, there were dissenters. I don't recall them marching in the streets. LOL, "german intellecutals fled the country and loudly protested" and "independent churches contiued to voice and rally dissent". Is that the best you can muster? 5+ million civilians killed at the hands of the government the populace voted in and quiet and distant dissent is your counter argument? There was more forceful dissent about the discontiuation of the McRib.
Where were your holocaust protests during WWII? I'm no defender of US practices but for a German to brag about protests while that country's citizenry sad idly by while 5+ million Jews were exterminated is beyond ridiculous. What do you guys protest? Too much salt in your BrÃtwurst?

The NSA can crack 4096-bit PGP keys? I doubt it. Seems like FUD to dissuade people from even attempting to use encryption
Better pay, free food, "20% time" to work on individual plots to destroy Israel, and of course, 72 geeky virgins.

All that great technology and wealth is meaningless if you live in a toxic environment.

Their mobile phone business is already quiet as a whisper.
Q: What do you like doing during your off time? A: l enjoy long-distance bike rides and wishing death to Israel. I mean collecting stamps.
It's hard to imagine a revolution where people are dying in the streets over wave energy.
And so on and so forth...

Today's burning man is about as counter-culture as a midnight madness sale at Walmart. The only difference is Walmart doesn't charge admission.
