No, that can't be it. The protagonists in the story didn't fuck everyone in sight.

That's because the link is blogspam that refers primarly back to itself in order to maximize pageviews. There is, however, one link way down at the bottom that leads to Festo's website where you can easily find out that Festo is a company that provides equipment for industrial automation.

The robots are a way of showing off Festo's technology in a flashy, entertaining way that gets them free advertising.

Flamethrowers aren't very good for removing snow, even though they're better than microwave ovens.

Well that's laughably wrong.

First, most electronics are already treated hazardous waste because they often contain lead, mercury, cadmium and other toxic materials. Adding a spec of gallium arsenide sealed in a plasticf IC package that will outlast the human race is not going to make any of it more hazardous.

Second, LEDs. Red, yellow, orange and infrared LEDs use gallium arsenide. Seen any hazmat warning stickers on your TV remote lately? Of course not.

Having gallium arsenide in a chip does cause it to be classed as being any more hazardous than any other electronic device.

Try googling for "thalidomide baby"

The way Amazon says this works is that you get what you've ordered within two hours of placing the order without paying any additional fee or within one hour if you pay $7.99 extra.

The person you responded to was implying that the difference between getting something within one hour rather than within two hours isn't worth the $8 that it costs to get the faster delivery.

How the hell did this get marked as insightful?

The COGS on a $750 iPhone 6 is less than $250. A 200% markup is a high markup.

Are you suggesting that the free delivery in two hours will actually be the next day? Or did you not even bother to read the summary?

$14.99 a year is not expensive. In most places, you could make more than that in a year just by picking up two aluminum soda cans a day to sell to a recycling center.

For the time being, you can expect all inexpensive products that feature voice recognition will be sending sound recordings to a server for processing. Building the voice recognition software and databases into the product would make them prohibitively expensive.

Skipping conventional medicine and trying to treat his cancer with alternative medicine for as long as he did was a much bigger mistake.

You're not talking about freedom of speech. You're talking about freedom from the consequences of your speech. Freedom of speech does not and has never meant freedom from the consequences.

If violating copyright by pirating a work is worth 10 years in jail, surely fraudulently claiming copyright and preventing the distribution of a work is worth an equal sentence.

The quote didn't say that Colt, Smith and Wesson were guns. It says that they were men, which is true.

We all get that you're excited at the opportunity to be pedantic and show off your gun knowledge, but you should at least finish reading the goddamn sentence that you're referring to before hitting the reply button.
