If I were a game developer and nobody hated my game, I might be worried about that. If all the public does is collectively shrug its shoulders at your work, you might be in trouble.
I've run across a few sites here and there that won't display any content unless I disable ad-blocking. I'm surprised this isn't more prevalent. Surely it's cheaper to pay a programmer to write some code than paying lawyers to do their thing.
1. It's hard. Would you want to write a manual for Excel or 3ds Max? I wouldn't. Where to begin and how to organize it? 2. It's time consuming. Software is bigger than ever, at least on the desktop. 3. It's not sexy.
No, you have to be at 10, the highest quality to avoid watermarking. Setting quality to 9 (and presumably lower, but that's not indicated in the post) enables watermarking. What's important is what the default is, which I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.
Unity wants to hide scrollbars, GNOME does away with minimize and maximize buttons, and now browsers are hiding the URL bar. Next up--the window! This overly complicated UI element must be hidden from users, it does nothing but confuse them!
If all you're running is one application, then you don't need a desktop. If you're multitasking, then of course you want your desktop to be fast, it should be up there in priority at all times. So caching stuff for the desktop is a good idea. Besides, it takes way longer to load stuff from the hard drive than to free some memory so an application can allocate some for its own use.
In Final Fantasy XI, the weather (and day of the week, which are all named after elements) does affect spell resist rates, as well as crafting success rates. Thunder-based spells cast during lightning storms will more often land for full damage; crafting an item using a Fire Crystal on Watersday (and/or during rainy weather) will more likely result in critical failure, causing you to lose some or all of your ingredients.
Could be, but I recall at some point the default was changed to reboot... maybe with XP SP2? It had to be changed because every newbie I help with endless reboot problems always has reboot checked and they never even heard of that setting.

Does an Athlon II x2-250 count as slow? Because I have one and I can't see any difference between Chrome and Firefox in day-to-day browsing.

Yeah, one guy cracks a key and sends two emails with it. Where is the "massive misuse"?
I can think of three reasons why nobody WTFM:
1. It's hard. Would you want to write a manual for Excel or 3ds Max? I wouldn't. Where to begin and how to organize it?
2. It's time consuming. Software is bigger than ever, at least on the desktop.
3. It's not sexy.
I'd move to the boonies in a heartbeat if I could find a job close by and if a decent internet connection were available.

Well, I know which language I'm choosing the next time I need a "Hello, World!" application.
I know! That damned radio constantly blares rap music every time I use my car! How annoying!
I'm allergic to cashews.
Can't have a Firefox thread without some bleating & yammering about memory leaks...

You know they were taking the piss, right? The whole video was a joke, including the "strategy".
It's "QA", not "Q&A". Sorry, pet peeve of mine. :P

Your bill.
I imagine their criteria is how many bluescreen reports they get from users through their online reporting tool.
Yeah, I could see how someone reading comments on a story about Microsoft mistaking "MS" for, say, multiple sclerosis.
Go into "Installation Source" in YaST and turn off Refresh for the slower repositories. Then refresh them manually once a month or something.
