It's not for you to decide based on arbitrarily chosen data points. If Linus says he's Finnish (another commenter said he does) then that's it. Also, think how strange it is to insist that someone has one ethnicity or another. Categorizing people like that based on their genes or language is sooo previous century. Time to move on my friend, time to move on.

You know how in SciFi movies everyone has the same phone? This is why.
There were multiple reports about sleazy companies reaching out to developers of popular apps and Chrome addons and offering them money for their accounts. The money is really good but there's still a lot of devs that can say 'no'. They will just use to track some people, it's not a completely new business that will grow and earn them money like Instagram or something.
I'm pretty sure what he sold was not the code but access to this play store account so that the new owner can push updated version to his current users.
I'm sure it differs from phone to phone but on the one stock android phone that I have somewhere it's impossible to remove the search widget from the screen which is pretty insane. I can't imagine using a stock android any more.
I use the price tags in the store. They show how much each thing costs. If it's too expensive I don't buy it. Make potatoes and chicken your reference point. If it's more expensive think about a substitute. Next trick is that I think what I'm going to cook before I go to store, check what I'm missing and put it on a list. Then I buy things on that list. This helps me not to throw away food.
If you do both things and still spend $10.000 on food you're only choice is to eat less or eat things you like less which is silly if you can afford it. Tracking each transaction is an interesting hobby but will consume your time and not help you much more than simply being concious about what you buy and not buying things you don't need.
Can't argue with that logic.
Definitely how fast the humans died out. I thought they will hold on for longer but nope, folded real quick. The next intelligent species was similar and only the one after that was more successful. Then again it makes sense that species that evolved on the moon will not take earth for granted.
Yep, typical Marie Curie intent. I guess Swedes don't have enough famous people.
Your understanding of the concept of nationality seems very basic. There are many different minorities in different countries and sometimes they will identify solely as citizens of this minorities (like Russians in Latvia for example), sometimes they will identify as citizens of the country in which they were born and raised (like some minorities in USA) and sometimes both (like other minorities in USA). The fact that Linus speaks Swedish doesn't mean anything and he doesn't even hold Swedish citizenship AFAIK. He holds Finnish and American citizenships so unless you can show me his statements claiming he's Swedish your arguments here are pointless.
Not to argue about a joke but Linux was 'better' because it was free, not because it was technically better. By the time it got actually better than UNIX tons of people have worked on it, not just couple of drunk guys. I think someone just misread what the article says and missed the 'not' in 'need not be expensive'. But if people find it funny it's cool, it's not for me to judge anyone's sense of humour.
Yes but the SciFi movies are not about people living in wood shacks so we don't see them.
