    So doing blow and hanging out in the Air national guard instead of fighting in Vietnam is hard work?

    So do you benefit from said system or are you just one of its many useful idiots?

    I never suggest I earned them, only that they are merits anyway.

    Merit: any admirable quality or attribute

    What does that have to do with what merits I have?
    My family earned it in some manner of speaking, but really that has not a thing to do with it being a merit or not.

    How is it incompatible with a meritocracy and where would one find such a political structure anyway?

    Your merits are yours if you earned them via hard work or good breeding. Still a far better system than we have today.

    They make money via the market and by charging for access to the market. You can disable location services, heck it comes out of the box disabled. The user has to actively enable it.

    It is when the company just bought a new OS.

    RIM bought QNX, everyone expected them to move their platform to that. BlackBerry OS is terrible, loads all apps at boot, etc.

    They bought a good OS and now they are sticking with the old garbage. Sounds like internal politics is killing RIMs only way forward.

    Speeds are set by politicians, ever wonder why none of our roads go over 65mph?

    On the freeway were I see most speed traps going 65 instead of 55 is not going to impact mortality a whole lot.

    The whole damn point is to get people to drive safely and punish people who don't.

    So are you naive or just stupid?

    Speeding is not dangerous in many circumstances, in fact if others are speeding one driver does not he is actually creating a dangerous situation. Road speed limits are set by politicians not proper engineering.

    No, it is sad that one as foolish and unlearned as you is allowed on the computer to begin with. Your position is nothing but ignorance, false alarmist and emotional appeals. Have a nice day, when you grow up maybe I will speak to you again.

    Please mention these other factors.

    The rational view would be to do what we do with everything else, dollars/life saved. If you have another objective metric feel free to weigh in. If you insist on being chicken little then come back when you are ready to talk to the big boys.

    Also, this is my last reply to you if you cannot get a working keyboard. Have a little bit of fucking decency and at least capitalize the beginning of sentences.

    Go look up the numbers. Check what is killing Americans, terrorists are below farm animals on that list. You are chicken little and I must say the sky is not falling. We waste trillions on something that in decades kills less people than die on our highways in a month.

    If it was chewing on me I would get rid of it myself. I still would not celebrate that. He did not pose much of a threat to me or you, statistically lightning is more likely to kill me than any terrorist. My car is orders of magnitude more likely to kill me. I am not clueless nor teenage, I am merely rational. To waste so much effort on something so unlikely to kill us is insane. Cars, Heart disease, Cancer those are the things to really be worried about.

    Also, your keyboard seems broken. A proper one would have a shift key.

    Clearly we should just be barbarians too. Why don't we smack some civilian planes into their buildings why we are at it.

    Your kind are why we have these problems. If petty folks like yourself would grow up on both sides we would not have these issues.
