It wasn't like in the early days of home computers that somehow every C64 gave a slightly different answer to 2+2, and some crashed, or that they consistently answered 4.1 while Apples gave 3.9 and Ataris answered "blue".
Stop trying to protect Intel's feeling and just say it already: Pentium FDIV bug.
I believe he was also talking about the same attitude back then, which was basically "why would I want a computer?" which is similar to the current attitude toward 3D printers.
The Chinese already are spitting that stuff by the ton and undercutting everybody. Except that this time, they seem to understand and are not undercutting themselves as well. Why sell something for 90% less when you can still sell for only 10% less?
And what's wrong with that? Even if you bury them in Dogecoin transactions, they're only worth 0.00021$USD as of this writing. So you'd need to be charged 48 whole Dogecoins before hitting one cent. If a website I like reading every day charged me 1 Dogecoin per day in subscription fees I wouldn't mind if it helped them.
I know you'll say it isn't much, but web hosting really doesn't cost much unless you have millions of visitors every day.
Let's say your Web hosting costs 10$USD per month. Let's also assume you charge 1 Dogecoin per day per user, at an average of 30 days per month. 10.00$ / 30 = 0.34$ per day 0.34$ / 0.00021$ = 1620 users
That's the break-even cost for what I consider expensive Web hosting (I pay under 10$ per month). Any users above 1620 means (tiny) profits which you can then re-invest in other Dogecoin-accepting Websites, games and services.
There's transaction fees for trading Dogecoins of course, let's assume 1 Dogecoin to be on the safe side. So you make your users pay every month instead of every day. That means 31 Dogecoins per month per user, or 0.00651$ per user. That's not even one cent per month, with the transaction fees.
And as a user, even if you pay for a one-month subscription and decide it wasn't worth it after a few days and there's a "no refunds" policy in place, it won't matter to you since you haven't even lost one whole cent in the process.

Here's another idea:

I'm sure someone already has an open-source version of this idea for 3D printers somewhere on the Internet.
Hey PETP! How your campaign to ban Dr Mario is going?
That man is a menace to pathogens, mushrooms and turtles everywhere. He must be stopped!
What's the reliability of that FilaStruder, the tolerances of the extruded filament and what types of plastics have you extruded so far?
What do you mean by "iPhone designed website"? Their website looks just fine on my desktop monitor.

Let's be clear here. What we're talking about is the extermination of whole species of pathogens.
Won't somebody think of the pathogens?

My cold would have went away in 5 days but I'd still have that twenty in my wallet. So clearly the homeopathic treatment did something!

Can you "bump" information via NFC from an Android phone to a Windows or a Blackberry phone?

If you have so many friends over, You're doing it wrong.
The obvious solution is to have as many Keurig coffee makers as you have visitors.
Just wash them!

"Bump" with NFC available on most phones, eh? Android fanboy much?
Now excuse me while I "squirt" a song to my friend over here.
Write louder, I'm going deaf!
I guess you've never seen a regular web user. They don't write documents at the same time they're reading a website.
They just read websites.
