Of course they had their own religion, so to speak, that they wanted to force on unbeliievers.
Hence religion and politics are actually the same phenomenon, and are about expanding control. The correct solution is to recognize this and let people be free from capture by either, for the exact same reason.
You already know this reason...for classical religion.
Capitalism will arise naturally in an economically free world. Politics, a religion, has to actively work to stop it.
As for Libertarianism, as it wants you to be free from government control, and for government to only secure your freedoms so you can pursue them without interference, it is the political equivalent of atheism -- believe what you want, Mr. Other Politics guy, but when you force me into your ism, you're going too far, just as a religion forcing you to join does.
Sadly, a bare 51% transient majority suffices as memetic justification for adherants to feel good about themselves when forcing their politics on others.
Marxism is a large memeplex whose purpose is to gather enough followers so they can seize control over those who choose not to follow, and force its tenets on them as well.
Politics and religions are the exact same phenomenon. The correct solution to both is inherent freedom from compusion to join them.
Ahhh, the old Ireland apologist response. That didn't take long.
Ireland was a political split along religious factions. While awful, it's not the same thing as this, which is a religion per se attempting dominance to force its beliefs on everyone.
Ahh, the old "people who disagree with me must be mentally unbalanced based on that disagreement" meme, a common one in a memeplex's mass control mechanism, and a modern variant on "if you disagree, you are in league with the Devil" of antiquity.
Well, I best not disagree with you lest the lemming feature initiate thousands like you to tsk tsk me, which obviously I do not want, as I seek approval from you like Lisa Simpson does, giving emotional certainty to my positions in a feedback loop.
The real problem is you need to be expert in the target processor(s) with special instruction slots and the break even points for unrolling a loop and dozens of other peculiarities. Processors are co-designed with compilers now for a reason. . It's not enough to just be clever in translating an algorithm to a little math virtual world of chars and floats and other atomic, hardware-level operations.
Incorrect ethics, I submit. The fault properly lies at the feet of the airlines. It's like blaming a hostage who ran away and so the hostage taker got mad and shot someone.
You are correct, except that you're wrong. Of what value is a system that rejects scientific BS, if 9 times out of 10 it also rejects true, important innovation?
I don't think this is anything new, though. Einstein was known to occasionally send a radical new paper to someone with a note from himself attached saying idiot, look here.
Notably Hollywood people, lest one appear on a talk show and casually drop the terrible service they received on airline X, costing the company millions.
There was a pregnant woman in Detroit who, while boarding a plane, was shoved violently aside by such an airline goon, striving to get to the Hollywood person aboard already to serve them. As it turns out, the pregnant woman happened to be a columnist for the Detroit Free Press.
Take the quotes off "wrong". Too many people view democracy as a holy justifier of dictatorship, as if, because it was voted in, it is therefore ok.
Democracy is a tool of freedom. Freedom is the master, not the servant of it, and is not something to be waved away because some charismatic demagogue can briefly convince 51% of the population to grant him infinite power.
Politicians tout democracy rather than freedom because freedom means freedom...from them, while democracy means massive powers authorized to them.
I'm not saying the US playing the game of "oh well, if it's gonna be a dictator, might as well be one friendly to us" is something noble, but I am so sick of this drooling, unthinking slavishness to the Holy Shrine of Democracy, when it yields little to no freedom.
To find out, the European Space Agency held its first ever mock asteroid drill to work on solutions and identify problems in how to handle such a catastrophe.
Symposium leader: Ok, anyone have any ideas other than "die" and "call NASA to see if they can launch a few hundred nukes at it?"
The simple version is that it's a diet without grains and pasta and chips and Doritos and French fries with everything. AKA you aren't gorging on starches. Root veggies are allowed (maybe fries? Think more cut tater chunks).
Look at your common diet and see how much bread (buns, sub, sandwich) pizza, pasta, donuts, muffins, potato chips, Funyons, much calories, taste good. die yung.
Should one of these guys succeed, half the denigrating posters in this thread will immediately demand the government seize the technology and roll it out to the masses.

Has Microsoft sunk so low you all are feeliing sorry for it?
Or are large corporations just getting more skilled with astroturfing public opinion, a sad eventuality?

Your Mom's system was wide open. Every hacker I know has been in there.
"Ha ha, very funny. If you really hacked her, what was your coding strategy?"
"Top-down, Bottom-up."
Because it's another example of religion being ignored and silenced by yet another left-wing, commie journal.

Well, that's an improvement, anyway. It's getting closer to most consumer's price point of being paid to take it.

If you don't get your hilarious comment in by the first 75 or so, forget it. No mod points for you. First 20-30 better yet.

It didn't go so well for the airline.

The cards may also be used to fast track money from Comcast's other customers straight into the pockets of the politician.

Your drooling makes no sense. A proper response would include no fewer than 37 "First of all..."s.
But first, one must pass it through a debabbelifier to see what you are saying.
