As I see it, the military works for the people, but are controlled by congress, who are supposed to be working for the people, but have been corrupted and now work for the 1%. I don't see the military as victims because it's voluntary service, and I don't see them as neutral because they get blown up and shot at a lot more than most lines of honest work.

Uh oh... did I just imply that the military is honorable? Here it comes...

(joke) I think we can all agree that the lawyer is the villain, and that he will prosecute you and me both for assault and theft respectively, taking all the money in the process while everyone else starves.
(serious) I directly know a handful of people in the legal industry who I respect and appreciate very much, as well as others that I don't know personally.

I mean this question in all seriousness: In this new information age in which we find ourselves, who ARE the heroes and who are the villains among these?

1. Wikileaks / Bradley Manning / Julian Assange
2. The justice department in conjunction with the overzealous copyright lobby and their partner brain slugs attached to the heads of the US executive branch
3. "Illegal" immigrants
4. The 1% that siphons wealth out of the country so they can get a generous cut along the way
5. The proletariat who are mostly content with the way things are, but would be fully content if there was just more of it.
6. Television news media
7. The US congress
8. The US military
9. Anonymous / Lulzsec / 2600

Here's my OPINION (for what it's worth, don't feel obligated to buy it)
Heroes: 1,3,8,9
Villains: 2,4,6,7
Undecided / Neutral: 5

What destruction has Anonymous caused that compares to suppression of the 1st amendment? They're effectively just calling shenanigans loud enough for everyone to hear, and I find it hilarious how much offense their opponents take in response.

Just throwing a guess out there, but I think a simple explanation for the slowness is that many iOS apps are webkit-based. That means launching those apps requires loading all the support libs for webkit first, which takes time, then running the app via an interpreter instead of just native binary execution.

And it's doing that all with 512MB of ram.
