I guess, we agree. When you switch to metric, you won't "rewrite" an old plan into a new one. You keep the old and make complete new plan, as everything will change slightly.
E.g. if you have a thing that is 1 foot 1 inch in square you likely will design the next version 33cm or 330mm square and _not_ 330.2mm
All the holes you drill for screws will be in mm and not in a "recalculated" 1/4" into 6.35mm Of course you will only need/use metric tools for such a new design.
However you you keep the old tools as you have to work on old devices for a while.
Of course no one should mix both systems in one design.
The point is that freedom of speech and association are far, far more important than the ability to carry cool looking guns, in terms of actually getting anything done politically.
Up to a point, that's true. But you simply raise the same question again: Are you arguing that since we're letting some of our rights slip we should also let the 2A go? Or do you believe that if we ignored the 2A that would some how make it easier to defend freedom of speech and association? I'd argue that it would help to undermine them, by providing yet another precedent showing that the "living Constitution" means whatever we want it to, making it meaningless.
The US's privately held arsenal has so far been useless in preventing the creation of a semi-fascist state.
Because it hasn't yet gotten bad enough to justify large-scale rebellion. Let us hope that it never does.
I think that the right to keep and bear arms serves two functions in this respect. The first is that it preserves at least a semblance of the ability to resist tyranny by force. The subtler and perhaps more important function is as a bellwether... and a trigger.
The "magic" is: you simply remove what you have installed. And thats it. On windows that is more or less impossible. I mean: who came to the idea that you need a "deinstaller"?
Your examples make sense, ofc additional functionality costs, however on windows random crap costs suddenly speed
Such an desktop app would be started after boot, in the user context, and the Mac would be useable and responsive already even with a back ground app starting to display something on the desktop.
BTW: who made this stupid "subject"
