Yours may be. Mine isn't. I have Twitter that isn't "me" (fake name, fake location) and my Facebook consists solely of talk about Rugby Union, that is to say, I have zero "friends" and follow the All Blacks, England, Wallabies, etc. Of course the fact I enjoy Rugby Union would for many be an indication of social class in itself, there's no data on my social media accounts that would tell you anything about me otherwise. I think people who do that are quite stupid.
You have to remember that Norway has lots of natural resources and a small population. What works for her isn't necessarily going to work everywhere, or even anywhere else.
Yet you explicitly dismiss how Europe went out of WW2 disaster by means of a strong public sector.
Err, no. What happened was the opposite. Germany stopped rationing and let the free market take over. That's why it recovered far faster than the UK, which retained state control over things like food prices far longer.
Strong government ability to produce goods and services doesn't necessarily mean USSR and kilometric queues to buy toilette paper
Throughout the history of these ideologies that's precisely what it's done. You're missing some important facts: Germany has a very strong private sector, able to generate the wealth to spend on public services (and what do you think supplies them?). Spain doesn't and indeed without EU handouts Spain would be completely bankrupt.
You don't need to tax people, only production and exchange. Anyway you're right, we're nowhere near the level of automation needed to give everyone a basic income. These plans are all very premature.
You're right but all that needs to happen is for the amount of money in circulation to at least vaguely match productivity. Who or what is being productive isn't really important (people, robots). Is this the case in areas where UBI is being trialled? Almost certainly not.
Can you give us an example of societies with strong state-owned companies for basic services that have existed in the past, where the few did not have wealth flushed towards their pockets, namely a different few, i.e. the top of the hierarchy of corruption these kinds of society always generate (Commissars, for example)? I can think of about 50 examples off the top of my head.
All your pointers are twice as large but your cache didn't increase in size. I benchmarked my math library at 32 and 64 bit and the speed difference was statistically insignificant.
I've been a developer for 15 years and I can say Visual Studio environment is way better than anything available on Linux. The code dependencies can be resolved in 64 bit but Microsoft is a business and there's an opportunity cost associated with doing that rather than something else more people actually need.
As a developer, child windows with WS_LAYERED property (proper transparency) are nice. Other than that Windows stays pretty much out of the way. I haven't had a problem with it. There are a bunch of settings you can change to protect your privacy, if you worry about that kind of thing.

Performance tuning is useless in a debug build.
In what sense did Germany rule the waves?

Oh wow. So not long to wait then.
No ad blocker for edge yet, then? The web experience without one is fucking terrible.
Market economies explicitly recognise this, which is why they reserve powers to break up monopolies to the state.

"free"
VAT is 25%. Income tax is 55%. Corporation tax is between 28 and 78%. Please clarify what you mean by "free".
Don't be silly.
Err, no. What happened was the opposite. Germany stopped rationing and let the free market take over. That's why it recovered far faster than the UK, which retained state control over things like food prices far longer.
That's only true for people, not machines. Machines don't want to go home early on Friday, or have three weeks off in the summer.

There are bugs for sure, as there are in any big software project. That's what Microsoft Connect is for.
You're not comparing like with like.

The problem here is you, not the tools. The tools install fine for me and absolutely everybody at work.
Spot on. Something isn't right there.
I've been using Visual Studio for 15 years and have never had that problem. Perhaps you're doing something dumb.

The North Koreans are just years away from inventing a boat capable of reaching Japan.
