I've suggested many times splitting the US in half - one side follow libertarianism (what the country was founded on), and the other side follows your collectivist views. Then after say 30 years, see how many people want to stay on each side.
Amusingly, it's always been the people in your camp who cry "That's not fair!" because you know it's the hardworking and responsible "evil" capitalists that make it possible for leeches like you to have your collectivist societies, paid for by their work and sweat.
According to Lenta.ru, the current nozzles will be replaced with thrust-vectoring ones when the plane batch production starts.
"Tivo-ization" was never a threat to anyone's freedom. It was a threat to RMS's agenda. Tivo never advertised its hardware as able to run arbitrary software and it complied fully with the GPL.

Except products more open than Apple's do exist (lots of them!) And 90+% of people are buying those products. No one is asking for things for free, so you can take that straw man elsewhere.
If we're going to have hype about Apple splashed all over the media as if it was election day, with people saying how wonderful Apple are, then people equally have the right to voice their criticisms of that product.

Of course you missed the tiny adapter that allows you to plug inyour camera via usb or insert the SD card.
Yes I did. It wasn't in TFA (or any other), was it? How much does it cost extra?
Read before whine, it will save you some humiliation.
Flamebaiter. By all means, go ahead and buy it - just spare me the withering fanboy invective before you haven't even used it.
I did a lot of research, so I thought I knew what I was getting into. To my surprise, one of the most important functions I wanted in a book reader was not there -- I could not import my own documents.
Seems that the problem there is that you suck at product research. Seriously. An iPod Touch for book reading? About an hour of research with Google would have revealed a myriad of devices with better ebook capabilities than the iPod Touch.
Then don't buy the fucking car? What part of choice are you missing? Is it that you WANT to be a trendy homosexual hipster yuppie but can't afford the price of admission? No one is twisting your arm to purchase it. You are just bitching on other peoples behalf.
