The proper comparison would be that if you don't like gay marriage, don't marry someone of the same sex.

There's not much you can do about Jobs, Balmer, or Cook being assholes, but we probably can force Mozilla to kick Eich to the curb.

And I did not say we could. I simply said we could stop using that oil.

But I'll be choosing something else now. Fuck the bioconservatives.

I really doubt there are many people in dorms with 5 digit /. UIDs.

Repurposed plasma screens are just that; you're making use of a huge supply chain designed for providing TVs to provide for a special purpose application. It would cost rather a lot to produce 30" eink displays, and there aren't many people to spread the initial costs around.

They'll give you a "discount" for using cash or debit.
