No, player A pays the 20 dollars, sells the token in WoW for gold to player B, then player B cashes it in and gets 15 dollars on their balance. Still a bad deal, but not for any one specific person.
To be fair, Overwatch is exactly how you describe Quake: Whether a player is level 1 or 100 doesn't matter, the (same) characters are exactly equally strong - the level is just an indicator of how much a player must have played, thus a rough indication of potential skill level. The level 1 going up against the level 100 is very likely to get creamed just for that reason, but maybe the 100 is some guy who just plays now and then to pass the time, while the level 1 is a pro on a new account.
The loot boxes are extra fun. Of course Blizzard tries to recoup server costs on an otherwise buy-to-play game, but they literally contain NOTHING that makes you stronger than anyone else, and the ones gained for free are... well. They're the "First shot is free!" version to give players a taste.
And if the problem was that they were afraid to do anything with a Democrat President, why hasn't Trump started a new "Real News!" investigation of her? Doesn't Trump want to see justice done?
Which is a surprise to no one. Of course they can't release every little bit of information they have ever gathered - if they could, it would be directly accessible and searchable online.
But why do they need your name? They should default to "Public knowledge" if they don't know whether they're talking to someone with a security clearance.
If you're sending your car in for anything other than quick fixes (I'm assuming Boyd's Autobody fixes broken cars) you probably want them to be able to call you when your car is fixed.
In my country we spell it 'forudsætninger'. Pretty sure most of the rest of the world don't speak English as their primary language, so they probably call it other things, too.
Or maybe it was his "Just surf the news sites and play a game to pass the time" laptop. You know, the one with no reason whatsoever to encrypt anything.
I emphasized the relevant word for you, but hey, if you're not traumatized by watching kids get raped for eight hours a day, five days a week, maybe you should get a job with Microsoft?

And the penguins will pay for it!

So basically it's the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory once again.
Alright, then let's at least increase the price on alcohol tenfold because of drunk drivers, violent tendencies when people get drunk etc.
Wait. Didn't the US try banning alcohol before? Does anyone have a link to a study of what happened?
I think it was a patch to EVE Online that did the same thing, accidentally deleting / instead of some specific directory within the game.
You forgot a maxim:
Just because it's old doesn't mean it's bad, and just because it's new doesn't mean it's better.
Two words for your idea on calling them instead of having them call you:
Caller ID.
If you're sending your car in for anything other than quick fixes (I'm assuming Boyd's Autobody fixes broken cars) you probably want them to be able to call you when your car is fixed.
You left out part of that line. Here's the full quote:
"Oh no, my town is starting to flood from sea level rise. I'd better go shoot some artillery at my neighbors who live 100 feet higher than me."

It's called a control group.
They literally have the same car - except for AutoPilot being enabled.
They are completely randomly selected across the nation based on one criteria: Buying a new car.
Then they compare crash rates per mile driven for the two groups: The ones with and the ones without AutoPilot.
You don't have to check if the guy that crashed without AutoPilot also crashes with it.
So you are fine with only being informed about the capabilities of a product with a price tag of a car ... AFTER you buy the product?
I read that line and wondered why it wasn't listed as a planet if it was as large as one.
Ten thousand quadrillion. By comparison, the total value of EVERYTHING WE EVER DID as a race amounts to about two quadrillion as per:

Well, this should backfire nicely.
They should get together, offer Zuckerberg a bid of ONE PENNY for his 700 acres, and no one else should bid on them.
And yet life is still here - so life DID find a way.
If the tourists can't figure out which one is flush, that's a GREAT reason to standardize the pictograms!
Is there really a difference today?

I thought that was what happened last year?
