    Capitalism wasn’t invented, it was discovered, just like fire. Capitalism is what you get when the state relinquishes its control over capital.

    Fire was given to man by Prometheus. He did it for the betterment of the species. This was the birth of socialism. Prometheus was pecked at in the liver by birds for all eternity for this crime.

    Ford Perfect is stuck in a planet with executives and marketing people, and they have nothing

    what about this wheel thingy? It sounds a terribly interesting project.” “Ah,” said the marketing girl, “well, we’re having a little difficulty there.” “Difficulty?” exclaimed Ford. “Difficulty? What do you mean, difficulty? It’s the single simplest machine in the entire Universe!” The marketing girl soured him with a look “All right, Mr. Wiseguy,” she said, “you’re so clever, you tell us what color it should be.

    We didn’t invent it. Prometheus stole it from the gods. Literally the first form of piracy ever.

        I can still hardly believe how it was allowed to have that one scene in that movie, “Quest for Fire”. The Doggie-Style into Missionary position scene. In such an old film I’m saying. French I guess lol.

    They might be surprised that open source software exists, is sometimes the best available in the niche, and highly skilled contributors are often willing spend their free time making it better for little more than bragging rights.
