Thank you!
Wow, did MS get sold a bunch of mod points?
It's schadenfreude....if it makes Windows 8 harder to sell, then MS makes less money on it and might not force this bullshit on us all.
Who cares about bloat? Win 8 is a scheme against open computing, against consumer choice. It has a goddamn app store, for fucks sake.
I'm in favor of anything that harms Windows 8.
Miranda has nothing to do with this, it guarantees the rights of the defendant/accused, not the victim, and that's how it should be.
And @ the "censor everything!" "use a limited account" people, no reason to do that. It's your kids computer, let him use it.
A couple problems with what you're doing:
1. Games on a Lenovo?! Lenovo is Chinese for 'shitty laptop company' Their computers are for business, not gaming.
2. Norton? Norton's a scam. Just use Microsoft Security Essentials. Even if you get a virus, who cares? Worst case, reformat, start over.
It's not so complicated.

There is an interesting misconception that all psychotropic drugs have sedative effects or make the user more submissive. That's not true. Antipsychotics are sedating, the older typical antipsychotics more so than the newer ones. However, stimulants are the opposite of sedatives. Antidepressants aren't sedatives. Most psychotropic drugs aren't sedatives.
I think the major problem here is the inflated role of academic performance. Our society drains the individual of value and reduces him to pieces of paper. What we need is to change society, such that people are judged on their individual merits and not on academic performance.
Reform the educational system, provide alternate routes to good employment. Shutdown the school-prison pipeline.
