Well, I played till Mist of Pandora. Just a few days to level from 80 to 90... most boring expansion ever. Did only visit a part of the world, the stupid kung fu panda simply made me sad. I think I was not even in an instance... don't remember.
But hardcore I only played Burning Crusade... hm, not sure, lets say "first expansion";D I liked the heroic instances which needed skills and not just gear... PVP never really worked... except for battle grounds. The classes are simply to unbalanced and most people want to play their "main" in pve and pvp and not two different chars just to "win" in pvp. Anyway, after vanilla and then first expansion the game went downhill. The developers/designers have no clue. They think attracting new 16 year olds to the game as new players makes more money than keeping the 50 year olds in the game. Player base is declining since a decade...
WoW can be played to level 30 or so since nearly a decade for free. After wards you can sub or play with in game currency (since about 3 years?)... no idea if it is "wow gold" or another version, never checked.
Then you are mixing up the efficiency of the engine with the system... which makes you an idiot. Not knowing that electric engines are OVER 99% efficient (no need to argue about the 1% missing if you insist on 98%) makes you simply dumb. Your choice...
actual engine efficiency is significantly higher In rare cases and very modern engines. Not in the typical engine a 5 year old car has.
Wind power used to rule the seas, and if we go back to wind power for our travels then we've seriously screwed up somewhere. You are such an idiot, it is unbelievable. Except for Mango or other fruits there is no funking reason on the planet that a ship needs to travel from Asia to America in 2 weeks instead of 4. Oh, yeah... you have to pay the crew twice as much for one load of shipment.... poor sods.
Most numbers you have are wrong. Gasoline ICE, below 20%... only rare cases are above. Coal and gas plants have the same efficiency, around 42%-45%, exception are combined cycle gas plants which reach 60%. Battery charging is about 95% - 99%... no idea why on/. people always claim it is lower. Electric engines are 99.999 (add as much 9 as you want) % efficient. Sine nearly 100 years...
No it can't. There are hundrets of cases about his, and modern cooy right law usually makes it explicit that data 'layout', can not be copy righted. Stored procedures, triggers and even constraints might be different, table names and column names are clearly not under copyright. How would you able to write a bill if the names of the columns would be under copy right protection?
Because no matter how similar the two final products were, they were derived completely independently. How do come to that braindead conclusion when the rest part of your post explains to us clearly how it was done by reverse engineering the original? Just because two teams worked together does not shield the second team from the reverse engineering, or copying a copyrighted work. They simlply had luck in court, that is all.
You are quite disconnected from the game and its history... players who want to play for fun, hardcore, but not necessarily endgame only, who enjoy the story and love leveling meanwhile moslty quit.
To cheap to pay the monthly subscription, in a game that is free to play since years? And never was expensive anyway?
Because Tesla wants to ramp up its production capacity. And bottom line Chinese panels are mot cheaper... the production cost is the same everywhere. It is only a difference in currency value at the world currenccy markets that make some places look cheaper.
In Germany the profit is shared. Why would anyone give all the profit to a foreign company?
Of course Tesla is not doing anything new, and claimimg that 50,000 roofs virtual power plant is the largest in the world, is just a joke, Germany has dozens of them.
In Germany going off grid would be super stupid. Most household solar plants with battery storage are already in 'virtual power plants'. It is used for balancing power, the interesting part is the battery. It is not only filled by the owners solar panels but also from the grid. An it does not only power the house but feeds back into the grid, too.
For the wildlife, as it is no longer hunted by men. For humans living there it is still deadly. Considering that a deer lives about than ten years and a human around 70...
I have a driving license since 33 years. I was asked twice to show it. Once when a fuse burned out and my rear lights went dead, and once when I actually was a bit to fast in France on a highway (and I actually did not have the license with me...) Why would I need an app? (Actually I have photos of all my important documents on my phone anyway).

The topic we talked about was not "reverse engineering" it was "looking at the original code", that is not reverse engineering.
Copy right infringement is not illegal either ... it is civil law ;D

We have observations of that phenomen since 1917: https://www.forbes.com/sites/s...

New York has how many million inhabitants? ...
And you think you can build a nuclear plant there without causing a civil war?
Dream on
Depending how the funding and construction is handeled, it will end up in 12 to 18 billion project anyway.
No it can't.

The players who left the game understand that quite well. .... do they deserve that 'title'? ... don't.
But the game designers
From or After(not sure) the the third expansion you could have downloaded them for free.
All what Blizzard 'owns' is client side. ...
And the players bought the client
They have no claim at all against people running servers. Perhaps you dont know what copy means in the term copyright?

Yes, and?
C: int x; // lots of bytes depending on architecture and compiler // usually well defined amount of bytes
Pascal/Modula 2/Ada: x : Integer;
You see: language has nothing to do with accessing bits and bites ...

Nuclear is never an option when people are ready to take up arms and fight it.
No idea in what phantasie world you live.
Scheme is a Lisp variation ...
So calling it easy for beginners is either satire or a joke or mind masturbation.
Perhaps you have a different idea what 'show me your work' means than I have.
Sorry, but if you simply write a number as an answer to a complex formula, I assume you have spied it from your neighbour.
