Yes, so between two points of failure and one point of failure I choose the latter. (thanks for pointing out the typo, the correct word should have been "cave").
Humans might be imperfect, and that's fine. But humans can also be bribed, and that's not fine. When tens of millions of dollars are in play, a referee can cae in to the promise of richness and make a "mistake". Furthermore, some sports do have certain mathematical rules where the referee can be successfully replaced by automation (not AI, stop using that term, AI doesn't exist yet). For example, in soccer, an automated system can successfully determine whether the ball passed the goal line or not. I say, replace what can successfully be replaced and leave the referee to decide in all other cases. Oh and we should stop perceiving automation as the enemy, rather we should look at merging the two (humans and automation) from a collaboration perspective. As a matter of fact I am seeing this right these days during the Football World Cup 2018 (the one you call soccer), where video systems are helping the referee make the right choice in deciding penalties.
Chrome stubbornly takes webpage screenshots and uses them as thumbnails for the websites I visit, including but not limited to my private NAS (which can display file names) and my banking website (which can display very sensitive data).
You met 3 out of 9 criteria for video game addiction. A score under five shows less problematic use, but if you are still concerned it is worth investigating.
Hoops can be meaningless regardless whether or not you have financial gain out of it. One could, in theory, hire you and pay you big bucks (say, a dollar for each time) to press a button that does nothing every 5 to 10 seconds, with failure to do so being grounds for dismissal. It is, by all intents and purposes, meaningless. Being paid makes it lucrative, not meaningful.
Windows 10 will be supported forever, but all the hardware it runs on, most likely not. At some point they will say "upgrade your hardware or Spring 2029 patch won't install on your machine".
The problem is that most law enforcement aren't trained to handle hostage situations and unless you deal with it every day there is no way you can get someone good in every precinct.
Wait a second... let me get this straight. There is no way you can get a good negotiator in every precinct... but you can get a heavily armored SWAT team in every precinct instead?
Actually, no. Whataboutism has nothing to do with anything. It's all about whether there's proof of misconduct around Kaspersky. So far, there's none. So what are we talking about here?
Let me change a few words and retain the truthfulness and meaning, as seen from "the other side":
I bet there are lots of decent people at Microsoft. The problem is they live in a kleptocracy, and they do not get to say no to Dear Leader Trump. Establish rule of law in your fucking nation, get an actual elected leader, and then you can work with the free world again. In the mean time, sort your shit out and get your fellow patriotic, non-cowardly Americans to do likewise.
Wow, talk about misinterpreting things, dude, you went WAAAAAY too far!
Never mind you're putting an equal sign between the country and the tyrant, which by the way is retarded, however your assumption, or rather understanding of what I said, is way, WAY off.
I never have put an equal sign between historical tragedies and banning Kaspersky, I just wanted to say I am not pro-Russia, yet I can remain objective. That's all.

Then they wouldn't be called "trading" cards anymore, would they?
Yes because they differ by a LOT of factors.
I guess you're confusing cowboy programming with heavily supervised production development.
So let's fire all airplane pilots. 'cause planes have autopilot, y'know...
Programmers can also be bribed.
And their code can also be reviewed. And once the software is compiled, Bob's yer uncle.
It's much harder to change the software on a per-match basis.

For an addicted person, what’s the acceptable alternative to stopping?
None, but the GP challenged it being a disorder based on "stop doing it" being the solution.

I've read "Sturgeon General" :)

I need to game more.
If the cure for your disease is "just stop doing it", then is it really a health condition?
Doesn't this apply to possibly EVERY addiction? I struggle to think of an addiction which doesn't involve "stop doing it" as a solution.
I guess you never worked with governments.
I would like to hire you and pay you by the minute.
Hah, that didn't work.
My wife, however... she knows spitters are quitters.
It worked, you bastard!
Wait, what?

Steam isn't the government.
"guy robs" ...
"Deyo was shot in the leg, but he eventually gained control of the firearm and shot Hopkins multiple times in the chest."
That doesn't count as "robs", but "attempts to rob".
Same for your case, man. The world has been saved!

See... two-edged blade. Can swing both ways.
