I bought a Moto G5S Plus directly from Motorola last month and it did not have any bloatware installed. It's possible that they were installing junk and stopped doing it, but my guess is that middlemen are to blame.
Those kind of reports really happen. We had a user contact us because his PC would not turn on. Apparently the fact that there were only emergency lights on in the building and no other PCs on did not give him the hint that the power was out because his first assumption was that it had overheated.
I found the exact opposite to be true. I put forth minimal effort in high school (rarely studied, frequently daydreamed during classes, ignored lots of homework assignments) and graduated with honors. I tried to do the same thing when I started college and I was on academic probation after the first quarter. I learned then that I was actually going to have to put forth a reasonable amount of effort if I wanted to graduate.
Why should the trend change when it's still profitable? It will likely continue as long as there's money to be made by keeping it going. Who cares what happens to the planet in 100 or 1000 years when there are profits to be made now? The people perpetuating the trend won't be around by then, anyway.
nonsense, human population growth will peak in 60 years
There's no way of knowing that for sure, but let's assume it's true for the sake of argument. You're presupposing that a decline in population growth will naturally result in a decrease in demand for natural resources, but that is not necessarily the case. As developing nations continue to develop, there will be an increased demand for natural resources even if the population of those nations remains stable.

It's extremely small minded/short sighted of the worlds most famous physicist, to assume the current system will keep chugging along, with business as usual, for a THOUSAND more years. He should do a little historical research...
You're right. Given the historical precedent, I'd say mankind will probably find faster, more efficient ways to deplete the planet of its resources in well under a thousand years.
Wasn't the record the Elite:Dangerous kickstarter? It raised £1.5m, which is about $2.2m. Planescape should breeze past this easily as their first day raised nearly $1m, which is kind-of unbelievable.
I was unable to verify my account and I get this when trying to re-register using the same e-mail address:
"This e-mail address has already registered an account with Mega."
Scratch that. Even though attempting to verify the account gave an error saying that my password was incorrect, apparently it worked but took overnight to finish. I was unable to log in last night (could not find account), but this morning it works normally. This is stupid, but at least it works, I guess.

I haven't yet found a program which stopped working with newer java.
Up until last month, we still had to install Java 1.5 on some users' computers because their jobs required them to use a web application that would not work on Java 1.6 or newer. We neither develop nor host the application, so all we could do was keep installing the horribly outdated version of Java and wait for the application to be upgraded to work with Java 1.6.

...will be to give every user their own personal cloud housed in a box under their desk. At which point the cycle will begin again.
That sounds like a great idea! We can call it a Personal Cloud, or PC for short.

Off the top of my head, the developers of Project Eternity and Wasteland 2 would tend to disagree.

tried +mega@example.com?
I had the same issue as OP and tried this. The site did not accept it as a valid e-mail address.
