What do do? Expect adult people to be able to handle speech they dislike. That means overlooking it, ignoring it, countering it with speech they consider better, or simply not viewing whatever it is they have a problem with.
And lets not forget the value to society of not letting future employers look at every stupid comment you posted when you were 15.
I've programmed graphics on Intel since they used to make proper graphics cards (back in the Permedia 2 days). Intel drivers have always been amongst the most reliable in my experience.
But there are a few problems with your assertion......
1. You didn't post any statistics.
"The average PC owner upgrades every four years." isn't a statistic?
2. Unless you thought they were referring to "iMacs" when they were referring to "iDevices", the discussion was about phones, tablets, or possible iPods. So are you saying that the average non Apple phone buyer, tablet buyer, or MP3 buyer is walking around with a 2008 Android G1, a bulky tablet running Windows XP tablet edition, or whatever non IPod mp3 player that was out in 2008?
Alright mister pedant.
Most people I know upgrade their phones when they break or when there's a particular thing they want (eg. GPS), not before....except the iDevice owners. Is there really a difference in functionality between iPad2 and iPad3? What's the difference apart from the screen? Explain to me why so many people upgraded? Will you be betting that they won't do the same for iPad4? Tell me that's not some sort of mass hysteria.
This particular situation was very complex, it's not a good example.
OTOH there's plenty of situations where a bit of range time and some common sense is enough training to do the right thing, eg. you hear somebody breaking into your house at night so you put yourself in a position covering the top of the stairs.
There's lots of things you can do, eg. make a course on basic situations a mandatory part of the concealed carry license.
The only thing I'm sure of is that gun prevention laws in a country which is already *full* of guns isn't going to make anything better.
"Ah, the joys of owning an iDevice. You have to constantly plan ahead financially for when the next version comes out."
So in all of technology, only Apple users ever upgrade?
Statistics don't lie.
The average PC owner upgrades every four years.
All Apple has to do is invent a new marketing phrase like "retina display" and suddenly iDevice owners are divided into two groups. The "haves" and the "have nots".
We've all seen The Sad in the eyes of the Apple have nots. This comic captures it.
as you are that a problem does exist. Really does it? Ready to turn the world's economy on it's head to to fix this supposed problem? Of course you are, because you are SURE.

Are you sure that the world's economy needs turning on it's head to fix it? Of course you are, because you are SURE. Right?
The economy is already being wrecked by wars, bankers, motor industry bailouts, etc. Are you fighting those things as hard as you're fighting the climate change people? Nope? Didn't think so...
Energy tech seems a much better investment to me than those things. Much cheaper, too, and much more likely to stabilize the future economy than petroleum wars, bailing out the manufacturers of gas guzzlers, etc.

Windows GDI can use jpeg data as a source for BitBlt().
There's actually things in between Dreamweaver and Notepad.
eg. I use a thing called "Komodo Edit".
I don't know if it's the best, it works for me....
It's not just you. Stud finders don't work for anybody.
In other news, the science of psycohistory is progressing nicely.
It seemed as if a dark brown elephant leg was trying to step out of a pink stocking, over and over again
Thanks for that image.
My car's got lights at the back as well as the front...
Take one of the biggest, most popular sites in the world and start driving people away from it.
These are the people who don't mind clicking to dismiss an advert for every single video. If those adverts didn't make them go away, nothing will.
(PS: Get NoScript if you want rid of them...)

Some things are best not saved for posterity.
NOT telling Google about a G+ account when creating a new YouTube account?
I'm pretty sure they're linked by cookies. If you have a G+ account and go to youtube your name will be at the top of the page.
You could create more accounts and constantly log in/out to avoid it but that's a pain in the ass.
You can do youtube in one browser and G+ in another... but it's still a pain in the ass.
I wouldn't look to ANY of them until there's some evidence that piracy costs the world more than making laws to fight it.
Most smart phones come with free email. If SMS is too expensive/complicated you could get the server to email the alerts to you.
It depends whether they're immigrants or not
I think they were more of an "export" than immigrants.
Might be better to set up a web interface to the scripts on his desktop machine then use the phone's web browser to run them.
That way the phone becomes irrelevant, he can also do it from cybercafes when his phone runs out of battery, when he needs a bigger screen, etc.
why bother?
Because they simply can't bear the thought of people getting their stuff 'for free', that's why.

My Android phone lasts 12 days in standby and about a week in normal use. (Samsung Galaxy S).
Maybe so, but a 'spelling checker' wouldn't have caught it - "prefect" is a real word.
impose strict laws...
Laws only take the guns out of the hands of the wrong people.
"Would have".
"It would have been better if..."
There's numerous flaws in your plan, but that's beside the point.
The whole point of this system (which you missed) is that it's secure against rubber hose cryptanalysis (aka $5 wrench cryptanalysis).
If that ever happens the car manufacturers will counter with parts that are more difficult to reproduce.
