How are you going to do experiments over the web? Not to mention the infrastructure universities have which you could never pay for on your own (want to calculate something on 100 cores? Let me see how you pay that from your own pockets. However as long as it's needed for your thesis work, you definitely can get that at universities).
That is a perfect example, because Gates never said that
Should be hard to proof:-) What is true is that there are no sources that prove he said it, nobody knows when eactly he shall have said it, and he himself denies to have said it. So chances are, he didn't.
The subset of correct mathematical theory cannot be the empty set, because if it were empty, set theory (which clearly is part of mathematics) would be flawed, and therefore there wouldn't be a well defined notion of empty set, making the statement "the subset of correct mathematical theory is the empty set" meaningless. On the other hand, logic also is part of mathematics, and therefore my argument may not hold in that case.
Pi9 would be irrational, but not normal. Pi is conjectured to be normal. That's the crucial difference between Pi and Pi9. Not all irrational numbers are normal, but Pi probably is.
You are, however, right in that I'm not guaranteed to find everything in Pi, because the normality of Pi has not yet been proven. E2 assumes the conjecture to be true.
And yes, normality does mean that the distribution of numbers is uniform.
I suspect that most books have been written recently and their writers are still alive.
Indeed, just yesterday I met Shakespeare. He was talking with Lewis Caroll and Douglas Adams. Unfortunately I couldn't talk to them, because Plato was just coming around the corner, arguing with Aristoteles and Kant about some philosophical problem, and I would have been in their way. On the other side of the room, Mao was arguing with the evangelists about who has written the better Bible. Karl Marx didn't help Mao, because he was too busy talking to Adam Smith about whether the invisible hand was good or evil. Dante and Kafka were talking about if the hell was absurd, while Agatha Christie was arguing with Arthur Conan Doyle and Edgar Allan Poe about how to write good criminal stories.
Without that, we'd just be dealing with the tumors those genes are designed to stop.
What would this imply? (I'll give you a hint, the first word is 'Intelligent')
That our mammal ancestors at one time were so intelligent that they already discovered genetic manipulation, and since they suffered from a high cancer rate, they designed a gene which would suppress that cancer. Somehow that intelligence then got lost however (maybe a case of idiocracy).
Actually, it's quite safe to calculate Pi in binary, if you do enough of it. After all, somewhere in it you'll find a message from each copyright owner, signed with his secret key, that you are allowed to have a copy of the copyrighted work. Moreover, you'll have documents about everyone on earth which reveal facts they rather would not like to be published. So actually having enough digits of Pi in binary gives you near-absolute power! That's why THEY want to scare you away from calculating Pi in binary.
Actually humans are to a quite large degree self-repairing. For quite a long time they also managed to survive without replacement parts (the survival rate is much higher now that we have the ability to repair beyond self-repair, and to make replacement parts of certain body parts, though). You've got a point with energy supplies, although humans are quite flexible in what they can use as energy supply (basically, most living things will do), and can survive quite some time between energy refills. On the other hand, a few days without water will kill a human. And without air, the survival time is measured in minutes.
It's not exactly a bad idea. The problem is that we don't have materials which on one hand are strong enough to withstand an external pressure of 1 bar without the whole structure collapsing, while on the other hand being light enough that, for reasonably-sized objects, the hull would not weight more than the air in the enclosed volume would.
OK, so let's fill our airships with vacuum. More lift and absolutely no danger of it going up in flames! Well, there's the problem of how to get the pressure with vacuum. But that's easy to solve: Just put enough dark energy in. If it can inflate the complete universe, it surely can also inflate a little balloon.
Neither. Depending on the system you're working on, use either a carriage return, a line feed, or a line feed followed by a carriage return. Fortunately the return key usually generates the correct newline marker for your system.
And as mentioned in the wikipedia link, any whitespace beyond the first is treated as a single whitespace anyway, with HTML / XML / TeX, etc.
Unless you explicitly ask for french spacing, LaTeX creates a larger space after points in the output (because it assumes that it marks the end of a sentence). This also means that you have to specially treat dots from abbreviations to prevent this (with backslash space instead of simply space in the source code).
The TSA claimed it was not possible to store the images. They lied.
No, they didn't. You cannot store the images, you only can store the data from which the image is generated on the screen. It's just a long list of zeroes and ones. There's no image as long as you don't send that data to the screen.

Don't forget to grow a second head. It's always good to have a backup.

However, almost every real number cannot be calculated.
Wrong. The last digit is 2. And the digit before is 4.
Yes, but 1/42th of those digits are wrong.
To find the secret message of God, of course. :-)
The circumference of the known universe is about 5*10^61 Planck lengths. So you'll have a hard time to verify more than 61 digits by measurement.

vacuum would at most supply 14% more lift

What Flash? Clearly you don't know what you're talking about.

It's better to buy after they nosedived, instead of when they do.
