It actually turns out to be very easy to do something about it:

Auto manufacturers supporting open standards? LOL
There is no reason to put from at the end. Is stupid just something caught the internet from?
Prepositions on the end of sentences is something up with which I will not put.

Sending adult humans on a 70,000 year trip is pointless. If you want a human visit to the stars start thawing the fertilized eggs 20 years before arrival.
There are no withdrawal symptoms from GPS devices.
He didn't really discuss the software in the demo, but it looked fairly polished (not surprising from a professional software engineer) and if you noticed even had a PiPhone logo boot screen. It was certainly a lot more work to do this than the people who claim to have "built their own computer".
The manufacturers are pretending to develop electric cars. They have an interest in preserving the status quo. When GM first developed an electric concept car, they named it the "Impact". It's hard to imagine a scarier name for a small, light-weight car. They cancelled the EV-1 despite the customers who loved it.

I could not afford a car until I had been working for a year after grad school. While in school I had a 3rd floor walk-up and a 10-speed bike. My Hungarian landlady taught me how to make Chicken Paprikash. Buying whole chickens, fresh vegetables, rice and flour in bulk is cheaper than prepared foods (except I still bought macaroni and cheese, of course).

It's not hard to get by if you can live simply and are willing to work. The city where I went to school, Pittsburgh, has great parks and museums and the best football team in the world.
This patch was submitted at 7pm on Dec 31st, 2011, so the only people looking at it were the ones expecting it. I guess they were not disappointed.
As I recall, when Obama was in the Senate he voted in favor of the Patriot Act extension and warrantless wiretaps. I don't know what you are basing your trust on.
I'll have some of what he's having.
Why do people think these simple questions are hard???
I agree. It's almost as if they don't read past the headline.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
