I've been seeing so many crazy comments on #FOSS and #Hacker sites lately, I'm starting to wonder if this is just a coincidence. People questioning the point in FOSS OSes because the commercial stuff just works so well for most people. People defending Google's move to lock down #Android because "how hard is it to get a developer license, anyways". Heck, today someone made FOSS OSes look even worse than walled gardens because not everybody can just get any application into the repositories.
