That's what I do but it seem there a fair amount f**ktards who don't really value their money... So nothing change.

Not everyone can afford cable TV, so they have to figure out other methods of entertainment.

Well I can afford it but as mentionned in the article, 25 = 40 a month because of hiddent fee, and the amount of profit they make is disgusting. Not enough competition it's true.

When you worked at the company, you spent 100% of your time doing what you are best at.

I think this is the flawed logic here... usually they will force you into doing shit you hate. the amount of work you truly excel / or have motivation to do will propably be lower than that. I would say spending 85% of doing what you are good at is awesome, 50% still ok, but If I were to guess the majority of people don't get much above 50% and just endure it.

Comment Linux won over BSD (Score 0) 208

I think (hope) no one will disagree when I state that Linux won over BSD, at least in popularity. But what made it won? Was it Torvald charisma alone? The lawsuit that hit BSD? Simply the software quality? I think many would disagree about that, BSD was still more mature no matter what. Timing? yep sorry it seems gpl did had a big impact. Or a larger amount of programmer liked the idea.
