well put it this way, im not politically apathetic, i just choose to display and take part in political activities which are outside the mainstream of politics, an area of politics i despise and have utter contempt for. as for riding fixed, it feels faster than any other bike iv ridden, is a lot more fun and although it has plenty of space for upgrading and such, i find there is alot less maintenance compared to my geared road bike. also i think the asthetics of the bike itself are very nice as well. as for the mac, well i suppose i was bought in by the whole design of it, and everything i do on it could be done on any other machine, but oh well. the open source stuff all links back to my view that as a society we would all be a lot better off if we all shared skills and such so that we could all work on programs and such together and cooperate to make things better rather than having a few people competing and copy writing everything and everyone else suffereing as a result of other those peoples greed.
