There are varying degrees of stability and I felt that after 7 years of development, official inclusion into the Linux kernel, Facebook deployment and the default fs on OpenSUSE that it's good enough for my laptop, workstation and a few other systems. Having that said, I've not migrated by backup drives yet, they're still on XFS. It may be a while until I migrate those.

I was going to mod you up but it seems pointless. When it comes to economics, the crowd here is so out of touch that anyone who brings up a reasonable argument gets burried. The illusion that we can get stuff for free has bamboozled the vast majority of people but the rude awakening is near and anyone who's paying attention knows it. You'll need hard assets to ride the next imminent downturn.
The first time I experienced this affect was a few year ago while I was walking in some local trails. All of a sudden my body ducked and only after did I realise that I was about to hit a low hanging tree branch. Our mind is living in the past.
Instead of using force to break things up, I would remove the laws that give large corporations an advantage and special privileges over smaller companies. The problem however is that most of these laws are sponsored by the large corporations and the corruption is rampant. We can either take our government back, in a possibly painful and bloody revolution or reduce the size of government to make it a less effective weapon for large corporations.
GNOME is much more than a window manager and you'd know that if you really were checking code out of CVS and compiling it. I'm doubting the truth of your post AC.
GNOME Shell took some time to learn and about a week to get used to but I'd never go back. It's a nice improvement over the old paradigm. There has been some regressions but nothing major and they're easily outweighed by the improvements. I think their movement towards integrating web technologies is great and I have yet to see other DE do it to the same extent. Did you know that you could style your desktop with CSS and write Shell extensions in JavaScript? Finding apps has never been easier. I just hit the meta key and start typing. Sure, other environments do that, heck even Windows does it now, but Gnome Shell does it better. I really like how dynamic creation of virtual desktops, how easy it is to move apps between them.
Most of the GNOME criticism seems to be towards Shell but I think that it's just because it's different and some people just don't want to learn a better way to do things. They find it painful and while I also find it painful sometimes, I know it's temporary and for long term benefits. I'll be using a computer for another 40 years so I don't mind investing a week here and there to make those next 40 years more enjoyable.
Your definition of a false dichotomy is different than what I understood and also different to Wikipedia's.
A false dilemma (also called black-and/or-white thinking, bifurcation, denying a conjunct, the either-or fallacy, false dichotomy, fallacy of exhaustive hypotheses, the fallacy of false choice, the fallacy of the false alternative, or the fallacy of the excluded middle) is a type of informal fallacy that involves a situation in which limited alternatives are considered, when in fact there is at least one additional option.
You'd think that they would know this by now. Dong Nguyen has over 170,000 followers on Twitter for a good reason and it's not the graphical quality of Flappy Bird and neither is it game play. It's the fun factor.
I understand what it is designed to solve but is there any evidence on how well it solves these problems? Do you know of any videos or benchmarks pitting Wayland against X?
There was a free exchange of goods and both parties involved won because they were both better off after the transaction. What's the point of having the government force an adjustment to an already perfect transaction in favour of one party and taking a cut in the process? Sounds to me that doing such a thing would be loss for everyone except government employees.
I have never met a libertarian who wanted anything for free. Quite the opposite. They want everyone to pay for what they use and don't want anyone to get a free ride because they know that a free ride is often at someone else's expense.
I send my kids to public school because my money has already been stolen to pay for it and I can't afford to pay double to send them to another school.
DARPA and CERN? The trillions have already been spent so no one knows what would have happened with that money in the private sector. This is all besides the point though. No matter how great you think the M16 is, the money was stolen to produce it and that's immoral.
It's their (billionaire's) money. They can do whatever they want with it as long as they don't hurt anyone else.
Government money though is stolen money. Stealing people's money to fund a pet science project is immoral and I don't support it.

I've slowly been moving all my systems to Btrfs from least important to most important and have had no problems so far.
They do but arming their own men is a poor investment compared to using Government services.

Running IE is like kids playing with a loaded gun? You're the idiot.

Surprisingly, it's not government funded. I totally expected this be funded by the government.

I haven't run GNOME 3 on a tablet yet so can't help you there. I'm impressed that you got as far as you did though.

There's no need to take a photo and send it; the QR code can include a URL with crash info. The user would simply need to scan it and follow the link.
The message could be: "Please scan QR code to report Linux kernel bug."
When you say 'right', I think you mean freedom. Do you?
Of course, when we apply game theory to the current fiat dollar system, there's absolutely no way anyone can cheat.

I'm proposing a that the focus should be put towards a third option, making the game fun which is different than game play and graphics quality.

I'm dying to find out whether Wayland is faster and smoother than X. Anyone have any evidence?

Not really a lie when using a functional language.
