I would have rather pushed him out an airlock.
Why do they have to have a "clown" character? Voyager had Neelix; DS9 had Quark; Enterprise sort of had Dr. whats-his-face (who sometimes comes off as intelligent.) Granted none of these were the abomination that is Jar-Jar Binks. Real science fiction has no clowns. I just reread Starship Troopers. Not a fucking clown anywhere.
ST:TOS and ST:THG had no clowns (except maybe Wesley, but that wasn't intentional).
The Holodeck will be the last invention of mankind. Once you go in you'll never come out. I know I wouldn't.
Alien archaeologists will find our remains in these little rooms all over the planet. Eventually they'll breakdown, but by then nobody will be left who knows how to fix them.
I can't wait.

Another problem is the compilers. Static scheduling has its limitations, but the real limitation is that Itanium compilers can't manage to do even decent scheduling. It's too complicated.
This is the same conclusion that I and my colleagues came to in 1995 after sitting through an NDA presentation delivered by an HP product manager. He was very excited about it, but we knew it would never work. If you can't fix it in 10 years, why bother?
Please forgive me for not being sufficiently pedantic. I was using the term libertarian as it's currently known (generally).
In your definition of capitalism, how is the state-backing required? I realise that in the US system, capitalism has a lot of state-backing, I just don't see why it's required.

Actually, libertarianism is nearly opposite socialism. Libertarianism holds that you own yourself and your labor. Socialism holds that you and your labor belong to the state.
How are "all basic needs are provided by the world govt"?

Probably so.
Hmmm...then why am I becoming more liberal as I get older?

You just throw some primer over the old screen and then paint a new one.
