So this would be the end of the Hackintosh, no? That sucks. While I spend most of my time on my MacBook Pro, I like having my Hackintosh for really heavy lifting.
Except in cities where there are no Krogers at all, but there is a Harris-Teeter presence. Like Charleston, SC. Kroger left Charleston decades ago (I worked at one that was always busy, but they pulled out completely when a couple of stores started to tank). Harris-Teeter was basically the only upscale grocer in the area, but over the last decade or so, they've expanded out to pretty much everywhere in the city and surrounding municipalities. They're not Food Lion, but they're not exactly Whole Foods, either.
Yes. Yes they are. While there are drop in-ish replacements for things like Office and other highly popular software, lots of businesses run custom software that requires Windows.
There has never been a hardware platform that didn't perform at its most capable when coding to the bare metal (or, as you stated, "manipulating various quirks in its architecture"). Code something in C++ for a bog standard x86 machine with a run of the mill nVidia GPU, then code the same thing in raw assembler, with hooks directly to the underlying hardware and see which performs better. It's just significantly more difficult to do that. Especially now.
"So what could have saved the Amiga was these Mac software packages being ported to the other platforms, or games being developed on the Amiga first. The reality is that the PC was was hard to program for during the DOS era, but it was the DOS OS that allowed anyone to develop for it, where as Amiga and Mac required tools from the manufacturer or knowing assembly code to get the specialty hardware to dance. Hence the demo scene was almost exclusively Amiga until the PC's started having soundblaster-compatible hardware."
That's nonsense. Developing for the Amiga didn't require any special tools from Commodore.
And on the "upgradeability" front, people forget that with an Amiga, you dropped an expansion card into a Zorro slot and that was the whole installation process. There was no fidgeting with IRQs, etc... like on a PC. To borrow a marketing phrase from Apple, "It just worked."
Ask the Koreans if the Japanese are racist. I have always been enthralled by Japanese culture, but it's really no secret that it's a pretty racist society.
Check YouTube for "reactions to Trump winning" videos. Those people. I was as surprised as most that the dude won (didn't vote for him, nor would I), but there is a segment of the US population that lost their shit because dumb hillbillies, sub-human, racist yokels that don't live in NY or LA showed up to vote because those people consider them dumb hillbillies that are sub-human racists.
I don't know if I'd consider myself a "Unix person (though I do really like Linux)," but the issue I have with Microsoft's modal/non-modal dialog boxes is the complete lack of consistency. And this isn't an IE/Edge problem, it's a Windows problem. Some windows you can resize and interact with other windows. Some windows you can't resize, but you can still interact with other windows. Some windows you can resize and the content of the window flows to expand. Some you can resize and the content doesn't flow at all. It's a complete mess.
Cardio is a bad, inefficient example. Weight training would be better. Lean muscle mass burns calories throughout the day, no matter what you're doing. Cardio burns calories while you're doing it. It also fights against the building of muscle mass.
My story is almost identical. Right down to the offsite project and knowing that I was going to blow through the cap early in that month. You're right, there is no "consecutive" stipulation. There's also no good reason for caps other than greed and artificial, government-sanctioned monopolies.
I don't think that's really all that big of a driver for PS4 sales. Certainly not on the level of Blu-Ray considerations driving PS3 sales. With competition from $35 Chromecasts and Fire Sticks, a $200-$300 game console doesn't look all that attractive for simple media consumption.
What did you expect? The only aspect of a la carte programming that is, in any way, attractive to the content providers is to control as much of the profits from such an arrangement as possible. Did people really think there would be a few "clearing houses," like the cable companies, that would voluntarily make less money than they were making before a la carte and that would be that?
This was obvious from the very first time someone was clamoring for a la carte cable. This was never going to be as cheap as standard cable. There was no way that the media companies were going to come away making less money. Despite the protestations, we've actually gotten what people wanted. They just didn't consider the ramifications. At least not in real world context.
You're totally free to make that happen on the OnePlus 6/6t. It's a toggle in the display settings. Were there no option, I might see the outrage (the notch doesn't bother me and I leave it enabled), but since you can completely hide it, I don't get the outrage at all.

...I'm good. Stay over there, Facebook, and I'll stay over here and everything will be fine.
Deferred to the AG on the subject of obstruction, not collusion. The collusion angle is stated flat out - there was none.

Shouldn't the DOD know exactly what our missile defense system is running? Why did they need to generate a report for this?
"Are they though?"
Yes. Yes they are. While there are drop in-ish replacements for things like Office and other highly popular software, lots of businesses run custom software that requires Windows.

Here's a good piece from the Japan Times:

And that's how you get Skynet.
The rub is that they get their funding from public funds. So it's not really their IP.

Don't forget the Fox stuff they just acquired.

Where is this the case? Everywhere I've lived (SC, GA), there has been exactly one "option" for power.
