Oh come on, the average corporate tax-to-profit ratio is really up near 25%ish. That doesn't mean that's the right number, or that there are no tax cheats, just that 1% is a fabrication.
People want their operating system to let them operate their computer. Conveniently. You can certainly still get command-line-only linux distros if you care, and you're the kind of technology specialist who might get utility out of that.
I was being defensive, but not for my own sake. I've totally given up on next-gen consoles for unrelated reasons, but I found no reason to summarily dismiss the objections of the OP.
I bought both the previous Xboxen myself, and I just stopped caring once the homepage advertisements crossed my threshold for tolerance. I am not your damned captive audience.
When you try to install things of any sort I don't ask for, it's malware, by the way. It doesn't matter if you're screening for things you consider malware, it's my system, and configuring it in ways I don't intuitively intend to configure it is abusing your power as an installer, thus is malicious.
The weirdest thing about the lack of honesty here is that everyone reads slashdot for the comments. Did they think the facade of caring would last past the last word of the summary?
And there's the fact that the dumb things Sourceforge was doing was harming Gimp's reputation as a legitimate piece of professional software. That's a reputation they've been working hard to develop for years(name complaints aside).
No, you can't avoid every webpage google has stuck its fingers in these days. All you can do is adblock every doubleclick, adwords, google+, and google analytics XSR on the Internet, and avoid using their services directly.
And I'd learn to use it

If I hadn't come to absolutely loathe and distrust everything Google does over the course of the last few years.
Hmm, a few text metrics read the same with this post and the AC GGP(at least more similar than several other posts sampled in this thread). I think you blew it.
You're a well-known poster? Well excuse me. I didn't know.
But Jurassic Park was the natural thing to reply to, because it seemed intuitively and naturally related to your argument.(And I think an actual dinosaur zoo would be awesome).
Sure, pragmatic constraints affect every design. But if you're worried about being spotted by cosmic rays, that's a lot better than being worried about being spotted by guards or radar.
As many as 1 in 4 adults should never have made it to adulthood, with the clearly disabled mental faculties. To bad driving is a case where the dumb shit you do is as likely to kill an innocent person on the road as yourself. It's like vaccines really, there aren't enough consequences on the people doing the harm.
To be fair, no one is telling you to run your server on http 2.0. You can still run a gopher or ftp server, if the outdated technologies appeal to you enough.
(Please don't dog pile me for saying ftp is outdated, I know you're old and cranky, you don't have to alert me)

That's the reason we do thinks bitterly and with a ton of resentment, not why we want to do things.

Why not? Is it not okay to hold a grudge for perceived betrayal? That's pretty much #1 on good reasons to hold a grudge.
Well, it depends on your base, and we're all computer scientists here.
And yet those cases make up a miniscule fraction of the number of times they hurt people. Exploding as soon as you use it is a bit more serious.
Yes, yes it is. //Just finished my annual training about this a week ago.
Sure, but with those skills, you could program the skimmer drivers in the first place.

Have you been to beta.slashdot.org? It's only a matter of time until they deploy it and I'm gone.
And, you know, preventing financial support for organized crime.

But I'm given to understand that even some of that 75% have different political opinions from me. How is that redeemable?! HOW?!

Wisdom is knowing that Jurassic Park is fiction, and that we contain wild animals in zoos all the time just fine

I don't see how. Co-hosting to avoid backbone usage isn't the same as giving priority to packets from/to specific servers.
