So the washing takes longer. Why do you care? It doesn't require your attention and if you need something clean in a hurry, there are less efficient short programs.
You are, by your own admission, a frequent drunk driver. Have you suffered the consequences of your own stupidity yet? Exactly. In a society you envision you would be behind the bars.
Besides, Heinlein was nuts because specialisation is what made a civilisation possible in the first place. Any hunter-gatherer society left is a prime example. Well, actually Heinlein was nuts for all kinds of reasons, like an unhealthy obsession with slide rules, but they are not important right now.
Had nothing to do with that - otherwise the majority of the former soviet republics wouldn't have even less freedom nowadays than they had back then. The state of the economy coupled with nationalist uprisings - that later became outright wars - were the factors that brought the USSR down.
"Simply by running out of money"? They had to match the military budget of the whole NATO - an organisation created by wealthy and summarily far more populous countries.
You are the biased one. Because the Merlin engine isn't that advanced - it is more or less 1960s technology but lighter thanks to the more modern materials becoming available since then. Landing the rockets is revolutionary, the engines aren't, though - not even close.
They have accepted preorders way before that so they have been on the market for more than a decade. Besides, even a decade is more than long enough to stop being a startup.
It has everything to do with East Europe. You are perfectly happy to take our money, but when we ask for help you just tell us to fuck off, the ungrateful bastards you are. The whole EU expansion to the Eastern Europe has been a big mistake.

Apparently not private enough.
Me ordering Alexa is the only talking done in my house.
Not compressing in the first place is far healthier.

Yeah, that happens if you only read British media.
Are you seriously afraid of Belarus?
Yep, that's what I did.
So he warned against technocrats. Nothing wrong with that.
Most people can.

It is real alright. Same with the Intel management engine and the AMD PSP.
Are you confusing nerds with masochists?
Well, disobedience is for the donkeys, so if you consider your attitude badass, you are just being a bad ass.
Actually Russia does.
So you think that two wrongs do make a right?

Ask, for example, the Turkmens again about their freedom.

Like they haven't missed with Castro?

Okay, atomic wanker.

How exactly can you call a company that has been on the market for 15 years "a startup" with a straight face?
Given that it comes from you, I am surprised that you haven't suggested arming the pilots with nuclear reactors.
