    ... is the wrong question. The right question is, "what compelling reasons do people have to switch to Linux?" The mere existence of an alternative is not sufficient reason to adopt the alternative. Sure, there are reasons, but are they sufficiently compelling to cause action? Inertia is a powerful force!

  2. Paid content will not die. on CNN Now Offers Free Online Video · · Score: 1


    Is this another nail in the coffin of paid content on the internet?

    "I don't support it, not because I fear invasion of my privacy, but because I think that spending time in the outdoors should encompass some degree of risk"
    A bit of personal accountability for one's own decisions is just the thing to drive home the "risk" point. Disneyland is filled every day with drones who must have managed and packaged entertainment. Mother Nature provides no guarantee of wholesomeness and safety. May it never be different!
