First, pretty much all of the popular game sports: football, handegg, batball, hockey - have huge problems with doping and brain damage. The players there are NOT examples of the top physical fitness. And the environment around these games is incredibly toxic.
(it's different for real sports like track running or swimming - the real athletes are amazing, but the competitions are not at all spectacular)
E-sports also allow much greater participation - I physically can not play a full game of handegg, but I can play Overwatch or DOTA to be able to appreciate the intricacies of plays. E-sports also don't really need huge stadiums, so we can get rid most of these arenas of corruption and replace them with something useful for society (like public gyms, swimming pools, etc.), removing huge negative externalities of classic games. And the list goes on.
That said some games don't deserve the title. Software versions of physical games should not replace the latter. e.g. FIFA console games replacing real football is just fucking stupid.
Why? Abolishing all the "classic" sports would go a long way towards making a better society.
Uhm, you have a strange definition. The dictionary defines "professional" as "somebody who derives regular income from the activity". So a plumber is a professional, esport player is a professional.
I fail to see the bugs in systemd, before systemd the boot was so slow that WiFi likely had enough time to negotiate the connection. The fixes are also obvious - add explicit dependencies to fstab unit or use systemd's native dependency tracking.
Seriously, systemd is not rocket science. Spend a day or two learning it and stop whining.
Humans need around 2000 food calories per day or around 8MJ. Assuming 10% efficiency that's 80MJ of energy needed. If you want to get it over 24 hours that'd require around 1kWt of continuous power.
Actually, I have no problems at all with alcohol drunken by others. I just don't like when it goes way out of control, to people blacking out or throwing up.
It's actually very easy. Amazon will build a DC that is completely dedicated to DoD. It won't have ANY external connections, with all operations handled through SKIFs and DoD-controlled VPNs.
This does not apply here. DoD requires an air-gapped cloud that has no connectivity with the public Internet. Amazon already operates such a "region" for the CIA.
No, it's not. Member banks own the shares, but they don't own the bank and have no input on its governing. Mostly because of the peculiarities of its "shares".
I'm a teetotaler. I don't see myself excluded from social life, except for drunken parties that I don't care about. Perhaps you mistake your alcoholism for "social life"?

The thing is, you simply can NOT buy Win 10 Enterprise unless you are a large company. They sell licenses starting with 50 users.
Tried it. It works.

Works for me. All the bugs I see in Google are related to race conditions between fstab and DNS resolvers/network.
Links to bugs, please. Fstab has been working fine since the systemd first version.
Why? Plenty of degrees don’t require public speaking skills.
If you have sugar, you can fairly easy make starch. You can also synthesize fats if you need to.

A radiation sore would take at least a day to manifest. It also won't happen on a corpse.
So they are going to hire less-poor people, paying more salary as a result. This is bad exactly how?
Sure. And banning Trump from Twitter would be an exercise of free speech by Twitter.
Why are you against free speech? Are you a COMMUNIST? Why do you hate America?
Nah, yet another conspiracy crap theory. Just read the Act itself, it's short and comprehensible.
Do you remember his prohibition on transgender people in the military? I do.

Why is the parent post marked as "interesting"?!? Net neutrality absolutely permits throttling, as long as everything is throttled the same way.
Yep. And it's not nice.
Seriously, free-for-all capitalism is just another name for "anarchy". It's been tried and results in warlords holding power.
Thing is, "real capitalism" has been tried. And it leads to hellholes that are even worse than Maoist China.
