Comment No replacement? It makes sense (Score 1, Insightful) 18

At the executive level you have lots of people making a fat living for doing little more than warming a chair and pretending to be important. Parasitism is a feature in the corporate world, just as it is so in the government and civil service: the difference is that the latter is widely recognized whereas the former tends to be swept under the rug.

Comment Re:Meaningless nationalism (Score 1) 29

Nationalism is stupid, and every time it is utilized it is to tug at your tribalistic instinct and fool you into supporting something.

Indeed. The problem is that nationalism is all that the mediocre have: I may be good for nothing, but at least I belong to a great tribe. Nationalism and mediocrity go hand in hand.

Comment Re:Probably no working NVIDIA drivers yet, though. (Score 1) 79

Are you suggesting that everyone should work extra hard, entirely on their own, to get some closed source crap working because you like Nvidia?

More likely because the support provided by the open source nouveau driver is so bad for so many Nvidia devices as to be practically useless, and also the fact that many systems out there ship with Nvidia hardware.
