Do Americans not buy raw mince at supermarkets? If so, is it labelled 'hamburger'?
Yes they do, and yes it is.
Doesn't make any sense to me either as a) there's 101 other things you could make from it and b) people who want hamburgers usually buy them ready made, but there you go.

Until we have something that everyone wants and ONLY works with IPv6, we're not going to switch. That "thing" might be here today, but it seems we're all unaware what it is.
Any civilization capable of mounting an invasion over interstellar distances would likely be many thousand years more advanced in technology.
They could be good at technology in general but bad at weaponry specifically. Or they might be very small or weak, or have poor immune systems, or become easily addicted to ginger...
the wealth flows int the hands of the few elite rich.
this is so obvious, but so few people are honest and up front about it, even the folks getting the pittance.
it is rather bizarre...
Not bizarre at all when you consider it's still a pittance extra compared to what they had before.
I must conclude that you've never ever been to the UK. There are people there who've never worked, never will work and are quite happy that way. Usually they breed like rabbits, thus pissing in the gene pool even more.
It might if only you could invent a way for three people to simultaneousley use one keyboard and mouse. Oh, and while we're at it, sit on the same chair.
How can I "vote with my dollars" when there is no one to vote for?
Look on the bright side - at least there's somoeone to vote against. Plenty, in fact. More than enough. Hmm. Scratch that bit about the bright side. Best go and live in a wigwam somewhere.
If I were an EU IT purchaser, or bean-counter, or CIO, this number would give me pause. It might get me to thinking
But it probably wouldn't - from my experience, having the necessary equipment for mental activity would automatically bar you from any of the roles you mentioned.
What you are basically saying with that attitude is that you don't value the device in its own right so much as you value the fact that you have one and other people don't.
No, that's not what I'm saying at all. It's not whether other people have one - if they've bought it with their own money it's their decision. If some asshole's wanting to take mine, that I've worked for, that's an entirely different thing. It's mine to start with, and if I'd rather it was destroyed than some undeserving shitbag got it, it's my decision. Not yours. Mmmmmkay?
I hope you like your own company, because you are unlikely to win many friends thinking like that.
Making strawman arguments and preaching about what other people deserve isn't exactly an endearing trait either.
I note that you haven't answered the bit about deterrence - but that would require thinking beyond the the "Waaagh! It's so unfair! I want your things!" level.
Beside which, if you are prepared to destroy your own property rather than let it fall into the hands of a thief, you don't deserve to have it in the first place.
How so?
Scenario one, you let the thief steal it. Result: you don't have it any more. Thief does, he's happy and will likely do it again.
Scenario two, you destroy it. Result: you don't have it any more. But neither does the thief, so he hasn't had his aberrant behaviour rewarded. Happens often enough and the thief gives up or starves.

Huge clueless crowds gawping at $deity-knows-what and not paying attention.

That sounds like a good way to encourage worthless dirtbags to steal them in the first place.Geographical note: if a thief in Newcastle could throw a phone into the Thames, I sure wouldn't argue with him.
All of your treble are belong to us!
Yes they do, and yes it is.

Web 3.0
Does that mean the whole IPv4 internet will be like a subnet of IPv6?
No spelling error here: WHOOOOOOSH!
.. from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Yup. Stupidbosscoccus and E.dumbuser will go the way of the dodo.

Yet another solution is search of a problem.
Anyone else read that as "every wanking hour"?
