Sorry that's the far right and the very far right. There is no "left" in American politics. Just the New GOP (aka Democrats) and the Old GOP (aka parody of itself).
You're delusional and obfuscating the facts: The GOP are the dickheads in the room since Reagan.
This might as well be how Blackberry, Nokia, and Palm blew it. And I'm probably leaving off a few companies.
IMO it all comes down to arrogance about your own platform. In Nokia's case that was Symbian.
And I think of the wonders XEROX brought to us every day when I fire up my Star and telnet about the Internet.

Read the article, it is very interesting and he makes some very compelling arguments as to why this is a bit too much hype...
This could become worse than the Dancing Plague of 1518 or the June Bug epidemic of 1962!
Worse, this shows every sign of being a hysterical contagion, capable of being transmitted over the Internet and infecting it's victims through contact with their computers, tablets, and smartphones!
The good news is that I know of a possible cure, and if I can reach my Kickstarter goal of $500,000, I can begin work on a treatment for the unfortunate victims...

...b-but, you get to set your lock screen wallpaper now! The GNOME developers are allowing unchecked and rampant levels of freedom never before seen (in GNOME 3). Seriously, you know you're fucked up when you're touting something that's existed since Windows 98 is getting touted as a feature: https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.10/more-core-ux.html.en
Seriously, what's fucked is Qt moving to WebKit Blink and GNOME wisely sticking to WebKit 2 means 2 sets of WebKit running around seeing as most of us have both DE on Linux/FreeBSD [KDE 4.10.x/GNOME 3.8.x Debian].
This is either a major breakthrough or utter bullshit. It's too early to tell which. If it's real, it's a Nobel Prize in physics.

He very well could be a wealthy recluse today. He used to be quite active in his fields of study.
Just yesterday, I picked up a water glass in a restaurant. I also used the silverware.
5 bucks to a busboy, and someone could have gotten a pretty clear set of my prints. Oops.
Worried about someone getting YOUR fingerprints? Wear gloves everywhere. Bring along a handkerchief to wipe everything down if you momentarily have the gloves off.
Low tech doesn't mean no tech.
With everything going on in the world I'm reminded of a hopeful quote:
"In vain does the God of War growl, snarl, roar, and try to interrupt with bombards, trumpets, and his whole tarantantaran
Ironically, Kepler was a Monotheist so his own thoughts speak with equal measure to the paganism of the past.
Well it could start by not ignoring actual reports of people doing things, instead of being reactive and banning water.
So which, pray tell, personal data would they take as sufficient to allow water to be carried again?
Of course as we know all those potential explosives (that are too dangerous to allowed on a plane) are disposed of.. on site.. in a trash can.... at the screening station.......

Well MIkey, perhaps you should do the same thing.
To the systems programmer, users and applications serve only to provide a test load.
