Most games can be played by a bot better than by a human, the hard part in making a decent AI opponent is to make them beatable without making them a pushover.
They would have restored the files from the Dropbox account, it's not that there were no backups, it's that the backups were updated to be encrypted as well.
Probably true, but if that manned mission lasts a couple decades or more, I wouldn't really call it suicide, more of a permanent change of address. (not that I would expect early missions to actually be that successful)
They didn't violate the rules 24 other times, they got caught 24 other times. I would be surprised if the packages leak more than 1% of the time so they've probably violated the rules thousands of times at least.
You guys are kind of missing the point. As long as there are a significant number of popular games that aren't available on Linux or that require work beyond just installing them to get them working, Linux remains an inferior OS for the purposes of gaming. To truly reach a tipping point, you'd need AAA Linux exclusive games.
To name a few, Fallout, Skyrim, Civ 4 (because I don't like Civ 5), Deus Ex, and Witcher. I'd list more, but Steam doesn't let me search my library by tag so I have to check each one individually. It's not that any particular title is keeping me on Windows, it's that almost every new PC game is available for windows.
I have nothing against continuing to use COBOL for systems that already use it. However, I am a little surprised that a department that's only a decade and a half old is using it.

That's far from true, Congressmen are hard at work all year round. How else would they be able to raise enough money to get reelected?

First, you should recheck your numbers. Second, Obama called it treasonous when Bush did it.
They meet an alien race and manage to convince them we're a danger to the universe.
We're going so we can watch the Earth be destroyed from a relatively safe distance.
Water isn't a significant hurdle when compared to other hurdles. Water for the trip is a bigger problem than water on the surface.

Slaves are capable of making decisions on unexpected events as they occur rather than ten minutes to an hour after they occur.
I doubt the initial ones would have any provision for safe return.

If I were to guess at a reason for a flood like that, probably to make a point.

Some of us prefer gaming for stress relief as opposed to drinking or posting anonymously to online forums.

Until Microsoft says that it is important that people upgrade to Windows 10.
There's a big difference between discontinuing support with an offer for a free upgrade, and forcing a free upgrade on your users.
Over a thousand... out of nine thousand or so, that's still not nearly what I would call equitable.
Anything that doesn't run the games I want to play isn't viable as a primary OS for me.
If you do this after your OS starts changing, you're likely to end up with an unbootable system.

Secure connections are generally location dependent. If you're not at that location, its a lot faster to use the connection you have where you are.
Public WiFi is faster than going home and doing things on a secure wired connection.
The problem is that SSN is frequently used as both a username and password.
If Bernie is voted in, Americans will suffer under our crushing national debt.
