I might be, but I don't think so. It certainly happens less often than something like people making ridiculous easily disprovable claims.
Why wouldn't Apple have been interested in a Linux option? They bought NeXTSTEP because of Jobs. Linux was already useable as a desktop OS in 2000, and they could have added in the UX stuff and drivers for their…

Making a switch is one thing, but using Linux from the start for OS X would have made more sense. The only reason that didn't happen is because of Jobs' attachment to his other baby. It wasn't a bad choice, but it was a…
The funny thing is so much of the advertising industry seems like embezzlement or fraud. So much of the time money is being pumped into this industry unnecessarily, things like Coke could not pay and suffer no loss in…
So it's an issue of fundamentalism, maybe. Those areas like LA and Boston might be as religious in many ways as rust/bible belt places, depending on the metric, but they fundamentally are not confusing a day old zygote…
LA and Boston are both centers of creativity, curiosity and learning, without religion encroaching on every day life of guiding peoples thoughts. None of that is true for the rust belt or bible belt.
It was the US benefiting from its position on the world stage as to why that was possible. The US was never and is not going to retain it's position on the world stage, and indeed under Trump it is radically declining.…
Most of those people didn't earn it directly, but via exploiting people working under them and not paying them a fair share for their work.

Can you share your understanding of what you think the debt actually is?

That's not an argument against my point in any way, and that little factoid doesn't solve the larger issue I note.
Ah thanks for explaining lol, got it!
Not every agency has access to every other agencies data, and that's how it should be. There is nothing stupid about implementing principle of least privilege at the government level in the context of data access. It is…

It's about not giving more info to the government than is necessary. There should be a minimal amount of info sharing from citizens to governments, ideally. The way some EU countries require citizens to register an…

Can you cite something to corroborate that claim?
