By taxing you until you can't afford what you need, needing the government to supply you that (because of their taxes), then taxing you more because they can't afford to provide it for you?
What defines a small screen though? My Nexus 10 has a resolution of 2560×1600 which is higher than most desktop displays. They'd have to have a device registry and that means they need more control over the devices it can "run" on.
I've always been told to ignore people that talk in absolutes. I have quite a few problems with Windows 7. Most of them are fixable, but it's a pain in the ass. Also, someone at MS keeps resetting my registry settings that turn off libraries because they feel like forcing it down my throat on OS Updates for some reason.
I could see thin displays mounted on a desk being used for that, but the way we use monitors mounted 90 degrees off the desk makes touchscreen pretty useless. Of course, having the monitor on the desk means you are always looking down and I imagine the ergonomics on that are pretty bad.
Funnily, when I got rid of my cable box, I realized that I lost my only way to quickly tell time in my living room. I took my old Android phone and cradled it on my stack to have a clock that's easily readable. Sure, I could get a clock for the wall or whatever, but that seems like more of a pain.
It's not the cause, it's the effect... men in caves with AK-47s have successfully kept the US Military busy for how many years now? Who cares what the cause is and why they are there. The fact of the matter is that people with far less technologically advanced weapons are effective at keeping the biggest, most well armed, military in the world busy. And the other point being made is that the troops are fighting foreigners. That's a whole world of difference to some than shooting your neighbor. Read up on some of the struggles civil war soldiers had with their duty.
I'm sure if more people wouldn't freak the hell out at the sight of a gun, open carry might happen more often. As it is now, people that want to carry for defense must get a conceal carry permit just so that some nanny doesn't nag the police every time they see a gun.
Windows 7 still has some annoying (what I'd consider) bugs. The one that bugs me the most is:
Open Explorer and open up your C drive, Windows, then double click the Installer folder (or any folder really...) to open it up and see it's children. Why the fuck does it push that folder all the way to the bottom of the window in the tree view? (Classic Shell fixes this by allowing you to revert to the +/line treeview (the better treeview in my opinion) Since they've moved on to Windows 8, I assume this will never get fixed.
I am curious how they intend on dealing with all the "lost" bitcoin if they only ever intend on "making" 21 million btc. If the feds just decided to up and delete the drive, how will anyone know?
You must not live in the same US that I live in. I've worked with city police and I constantly heard about decisions between buying a new patrol car or hiring another officer. I know many departments that would love to have more money to spend on people/tools.
Given how little we know about Landmark's details, I'm a little leery of dedicating too much time to it. The building part of Minecraft is the least of the enjoyment I get out of it. What I have fun doing is funnelling mobs into death chambers, creating automated farms, complex piston contraptions, hopper and redstone circuits. If Minecraft was just a game of building large static structures... I definitely wouldn't put as much time into it.
With the size of the voxels, it would make it hard to do rails I imagine and I'm having a hard time imagining how they would implement pistons (or something of the like to move voxels around without players in "edit mode"). With the confined "building plots", I think it's going to be hard to do large scale mining operations or get into machinery like some of the mods add.
They also said they want to allow people to build Sci-Fi environments, but without some way to program the voxels or some kind of complex mechanisms... it's only going to be people making non-functioning ship husks and getting bored.

You can't spell Slaughter without Laughter.
Some politicians do go get real jobs... after they boost markets where the company they are about to go work for is the benefactor.
They're just padding metadata.

Interstate would be any highway travelling across state boundaries, where 'inter-' being defined as "among/between" States.
I'm a bit confused by Interstate 1 though.
One that flies over in a dual rotor helicopter.

I find it funny that Windows 7 will not find "Add or remove programs" if you type "Add", but it will find it if you type "Remove"

Bacteria produce B12 as well.
That's the difference between a Vegan and a Vegetarian...
I have to wonder as well if the diet contributed to the survivability of the bone in the fossilization process.

He likes the Hollywood version of real life. Next week he plan on taking out a helicopter with a taxi.

I love this part:
direct exchange of files between users without dependence on a central server.
It's almost as if it's saying, "If we can't shut it down, it's not permissible!"
Oh, you guys have "Free Speech Zones" as well?

Who gets to put that white paint on all the deer hanging out roadside?
