According to my back-of-an-envelope calculations, I get their true weight to be 1729N.

F=GMmr^-2
=G * Mass of earth * mass of box * (Earth's radius + Hubble orbit height)^-2
=(6.67x10^-11 * 5.9742x10^24 * 208.7) * ((6378 + 559)x10^3)^-2
=1729.20 N

First, as has already been pointed out, a lot of his criticism is subjective or unfounded.
Secondly, and more importantly; despite these tens of problems that are listed, Linux is still gaining market share against windows. More subjectively; Linux runs "better" on all the PCs I have tried it on. Sure, niche cases like setting up X-Fi cards are annoying, but then they aren't a walk in the park in Windows either.
Finally, this made me laugh the most:

(Emphasis mine). So? It would be impossible to contain all open source software ever in a repo. But at least a sizeable quantity is available there, compared to microscopic amounts of "packages" in Microsofts repo (i.e., Windows Update) which is mostly composed of patches anyway.

this really is a case of correlation not implying causation. Otherwise firefox's market share would have decreased from v2 to 3, and will decrease again when 3.5 is released.
Sure, it's a "fact", but I'll bet that in 5 years time this won't be the case. This "tidbit" does not allow us to make sensible predictions about the future of browsers.

Four more years! Four more years!

She says that next time she'd prefer it if you operated the touchscreen with your fingers.

What about the Feynman Lectures on Physics?
Although it's obviously much newer than all the books you listed, and is still under copyright.

End of the world prophecies in 2012 - coincidence? I think not.
Obviously Microsoft will only stop pushing Vista at the behest of the four horsemen.

No, this is just genuine racism. There's nothing integral about being african-american that makes one reject learning.

How about you take a few more flights and then set up a beowulf cluster?

Your main point is still valid, but I should point out that swine flu currently kills by turning the immune system against the host, by way of a cytokine storm. Therefore, the people with the strongest immune system are more likely to die than the ill, old or young. This was also the case with the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918.

The first and last ones immediately raise my suspicions; they seem highly unlikely at best.

However, it would be odd if photosynthesis could be better described by something other than QM. Anything involving exciting electrons molecules and catalysing reactions using photons is going to be very well described by quantum mechanics.

That's not to say something better won't come along in the future, it's just that currently it's the best theory for that scale of matter.

Heat can be used to do work.
