Critics may see (of have read about) "...the many misrepresentations and falsehoods littered throughout the film.", the "public" are probably all Trump supporters trying to defend their life-choices.
(it's a pro-Trump movie, before anybody thinks this is just a Slashdot anti-Trump rant)
I want to know where the hundreds of people who used to post here about how Bitcoin had no limits, that every last Bitcoin would soon be worth a million bucks went to. They've been embarrassingly silent lately.
I just don't see this as a problem. At some point, you have to consider whether NOT walking to school in 12 feet of snow up hill both ways somehow contributed to a better education that allows us to do the amazing things we do these days. Some things simply harder, without being better.
Knowing how to use things like slide rules still expands the mind, even if you never use them in practice.

Supposedly it is the only economic system compatible with mans nature
Yes, but man's nature is the tragedy of the commons.
But .... they told me his meeting with Angela Merkel was a "meeting of the minds".
Most online ratings a skewed because only people with strong reactions to products/movies will bother to go online and post.
Huh?
Am I objectively unable to see the secrets behind Trump's "success" in the economy?
ie. He's currently borrowing $1 trillion a year to give away as bread/circuses (sorry, I meant "tax cuts" and "job creation" )
Am I also unable to see that this important detail isn't being given much air time on Fox news?
As for comparing Trump with Lincoln in a movie? Puhleeese. (facepalm)
So? That's obviously a very divisive movie.

Excellent reasoning.
Beijing doesn't care what I do with my phone - because I'm not in China.
All US citizens should be embracing that concept
Nope. Again.
When you're given lemons, make lemonade.
Yeah, Apple would never do that.

I see an article saying they could do something, if they wanted to, but no evidence that they are doing that.
Is there anything there that couldn't be done by any other manufacturer? Isn't already being done by other manufacturers?
"But the company has so far focused on low and mid-tier handsets..."
I beg your pardon?
Yep. My Mix 2 128Gb is hardly "low or mid-tier" - it beats almost everything else out there on every specification you can name.
(and only $500)
My Xioami updates/patches itself quite regularly, thanks.
And ... you have evidence to back this up? Or just Xenophobia?
Plenty of expensive ones, too. Yours included.
You have the most intelligent question here. Bravo.
Rubbish. Tulips take effort to grow them. Bitcoin doesn't.
Yep. All they achieved was making sure ordinary people couldn't buy a decent bang-per-buck graphics card for a year or so.
To be honest- I still wish I had bought a bunch of bitcoin when they were $1 or $2 each.
Hindsight is always 20:20
They didn't walk away, exactly. They're still out there, mining, and manipulating the prices to suck in the remaining fools.

Come back! We want to say "told you so!".
Seriously, where are they now?
I had a few (supposedly) smart people tell me last December that you only had to but 1 bitcoin now and you had your retirement totally sorted out.
There's a definite limit to how much gold is on Earth, and it's surprisingly small:

I guess if you're just learning to use a slide rule robotically instead of learning how/why it works then you might be right, it's pointless.
Do you learn all your other stuff like that, too?
I suspect 99% of developers are sick of Mozilla breaking their extensions ans simply won't bother.
Only the really famous ones will be updated. Anything new will simply be coin-miners disguised as youtube downloaders.
loved that book as a young man.
Me, too. I've got a first edition of it somewhere.
A less well known quote is on the page right after that other one: "Slide rules are the greatest invention since girls"
Better expand the mind with things that will be used, not obsolete stuff.
So... we should exclude all art, music, poetry, science fiction, etc., right?
