Only one is know to be wrong (because they are inconsistent with each other). You can make reliable predictions with either. We still use Newtonian mechanics and Newtonian gravity to make reliable predictions and we know those are wrong! We only know that one must be flawed, but we don't know that they both are.
Which is the expected result. It's just disturbing that it implies that Wigner's friend must also now be in superposition and entangled with the photon state.
I'm sure I was taught at some point that Celsius was just C, and that degrees-C was centigrade. C was based on K (Kelvin), Whereas degrees-C was based on the freezing-point and boiling-point of water.
Adobe's liability should be the cost to restore from backup, $0 in this case as there wasn't one, not $250,000. The idiot's liability is the $250,000 worth of files he failed to backup.
Profit is the only thing that matters to a business. It's regulation that protects people from businesses. Businesses don't have to keep running. One way to maximize the profit of some businesses, is to let them go bust and dump the debt onto other people.
Which games require lots of cores and high clock speeds. The older games benefit from clock speed, but these are older games that don't need 5GHz. The newer games (should) benefit more from more cores. Why not get something with more cores and a reasonable clock speed? It'll be cheaper, and you can put the excess towards the GPU. Hey, maybe someone will release a game that uses RTX.
If you're travelling it's even easier. You accelerate at 1G for the first half of the journey, turn the ship around, and decelerate at 1G for the second half.
In physics, the no-cloning theorem states that it is impossible to create an identical copy of an arbitrary unknown quantum state.
So my thoughts are that teleportation is possible without the death sentence, due to the no-cloning theorem. So if you step into the teleporter, it's you that steps out the other end.
The problem with Star Trek is that the Heisenberg compensators guarantee that you die, because they enable copies to be made. Why? Well image a teleporter that can potentially make a copy. In the first case, someone steps into pod A, disappears, and someone steps out of pod B. In the second case, someone steps into pod A, doesn't disappear, and someone steps out of pod B (along with the guy still in pod A). There is no difference to the guy that steps out of pod B. He must be a copy. Which implies the original only survives in the second example.
And as pure speculation: I think if you asked the guy that stepped out of pod B if he was the original, then I think he'd tell you that he was actually a copy. Mostly because I think the alternative would be a lot stranger.
How sure are we that Robert McIntyre isn't a zombie. What if this is just some scheme for obtaining fresh, tasty, succulent, brains. Mmmmm, braaaaaaaains. BRAAAAAAAAAINS.
So you're saying that only you can have morals because your imaginary friend told you what they are? I think I have morals because of basic empathy for other people, not because of my fear of punishment or greed for rewards from a make-believe creation.

I must have missed that. Why is quantum theory is wrong?
I'm guessing you're using that quote on the basis you think Einstein was correct, and not what that quote is famous for (Einstein being wrong).

There's one with "business packaging" that comes without the mouse (still has the numpad though). There's one on the UK amazon too.
I'm using the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic at the moment. Admittedly the looks had a strong influence on my purchasing decision. Had the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000, which was okay, but its feel wasn't as good as the original Natural Keyboard in my opinion. Had the Natural Keyboard Pro too, but didn't like it much.
The time it took me to learn to touch-type is something I've never regretted. Alternatively look at double-shot injection molded keys.

Why not have all the Windows software run from a read only directory,
Where would hello.cpp compile to?

Wait. Microsoft are adding features to Skype? I thought they just removed them.

You can plug in a real keyboard and use that. Just rest it on the bottom screen where it's most convenient and... oh.
The GNU Compiler Collection, although this may depend on what you mean by "sophisticated".
I hate to think where they put that.

Please describe an objective repeatable test that a "conscious" entity would pass, but an entity without "consciousness" would fail.
They write and talk about it.

Whereas, with a scientific theory, if it disagrees with experiment, it is wrong.
Take them out of the metal shielding?

Do we know HOW to travel faster than light? Nope.
Worse, we don't even know what that means. You're probably still thinking of Galilean velocities. Bad news: That's not how they work.
You say that, but they killed twelve with Hiroshima, and went on to irradiate about 400,000 in nuclear tests after the war.
