Because they're 'projecting'...they blame everyone else for their own shortcomings ie: they're evil.
You see this a lot...for example, people who 'promote awareness' seem to have a severe lack of it themselves.

My favourites are the conspiracy theorists who say that we should have secret meetings to discuss how to deal with all the conspiracies.

Didn't you get the email invite to the one on Tuesday?

What?!
No, I didn't!
It's a plot, isn't it?!
Someone in the group is trying to get one over on me!
We need to discuss this. Choose a date -- and don't tell the others!

I rather read it as an acknowledgement.. yes, it's possible; you are free to choose so, but why would we?

It's an anagram of "Embody Evil".

It's an anagram of "Violent Bed" if that helps?

Really? What about everything that's soulless but not wrong? Or wrong but not soulless? Or just none of the above? Cos I always thought it was just a search engine which you are entirely free to live without.

Not that examples are so hard to come by, but doesn't an assertion like this deserve just a little support? What did google do that pushed you into the "evil" camp? It has to be more than just realizing that all ad brokers are evil by construction.
I mean, I know why google seems evil to me...
- Owning the internet verb for "to search", and adulterating search results with paid content is pretty evil.
- Announcing an open source operating system for phones and then after it is accepted spending years replacing it bit-by-bit with proprietary content is pretty evil.
- Conspiring with a cartel of Silicon Valley employers to tamp down wages for the geeky talent that makes it great is pretty evil.
I just wondered what you woke up to.

I woke up to the fact that Google's Android developer program is not fair. Besides that I have nothing against Google. I'am not in the "evil" camp, that's sounds bad

Saw that a couple days ago. So close, yet so far. You can see the poor little thruster trying to compensate for the tilt but it just can't get enough oomph.

Funny - I just remembered dreaming about it tonight. They launched rockets every minute and tried again and again landing it successfully. I was watching from some remote landmass and it seemed completely reasonable that they had so many of it

It seems to come down quite quickly. Doesn't give the rocket much chance to compensate for unknown variables like wind, or sea motion.
Also the rocket centre of gravity must make it naturally unstable on a barge. Must have clever latches.

I was thinking wind too.
When I studied I was a member of the hot air balloon club at the uni.
Normally it's a completely smooth experience to go by balloon as you move with the wind.
But once we were on the country side in an area without commercial aircraft and we were allowed to go up to twelwe thousand feet, something no one in the club had ever done before.
So naturally we decided to go for it.
On the way up at about 8000 feet we went through a layer of air that shifted the wind direction 180 degrees.
The balloon tilted about 20 degrees to the side which figuratively scared the sh*t out of us, as we were entirely unprepared for it.
I immediately thought of this when I saw the rocket lose control.
BTW. There was a second time when we figuratively crapped our pants during that flight.
At eleven thousand feet the flame went out, and couldn't be lit again. To little oxygen.
We had a pretty good speed downwards when we could light the flame again, almost three thousand feet lower.
Luckily a hot air balloon has an additional function as a parachute.

Can be fun if all you're doing is the sightseeing flights.
But this rocket is landing on a barge at sea and the winds tend to be a bit stronger and and more unpredictable. On top of that they would need the barge to be stablized. Maybe at the speed they're dropping they should us a small parachute or small rockets at the top for stablization.

They've released a training pack[^] for people who want to help out.
