Has it been exploited? A zero-day attack is an exploit on the same day that the information is released. No-one has said anything about an attack. If it gets attacked today, it's a zero-day. If it's already been attacked, then it's an already-exploited vulnerability, there's no point in attaching positive or negative numbers to it. An exploited bug that never gets detected would be a minus infinity day attack!!!! Anyway that's a "zero-day attack", I don't know what a "zero-day vulnerability" is, the term doesn't make any sense. I think people are just saying "zero day" because it sounds cool.

Because both "station" does not derive from "stationary", they both share a common root with the latin word "statio" meaning “standing, post, job, position”.
And depending on your frame of reference, every "station" on the planet is moving a million miles a day.

Your second sentence seems to contradict the first. Microsoft never made any money from Internet Explorer. Making money has nothing to do with monopolistic practice, in fact monopolistic practices lose money all the time in order to maintain a lock on a more lucrative market. It's pretty much the definition. If someone's losing money (e.g. manufacturing consoles at a loss) then they are doing it in order to gain market share (possibly to acquire or maintain a monopoly) in something else (e.g. console games).

Same way they deal with the corporate trolls that are presumably all over their existing gaming channels on YouTube. I subscribe to five or six different Minecraft channels, two KSP channels, I've watched several GTA V playthroughs online, all on YouTube, all legit, all generating ad revenue.

A "truly free market" is an anarchy, and the most powerful players will abuse their freedom to remove everyone else's freedom. Anarchy leads to feudalism. The only way that humanity has discovered to control the power of the powerful (and therefore to avoid feudalism) is to regulate it in a governmental structure.

No. Microsoft should learn how to communicate with their customers. It's their fault that everyone remembers a mythical ban on used game sales.

You don't think Ben met Han by chance, do you? That was clearly set up by Chewie, the Rebel Alliance secret agent. IMO the biggest mistake in that regard was having C3P0 being the 'droid that Anakin built. Clearly he built R2D2 to help him build and test pod racers.

Cars have to be designed with the interests of the road-using population in mind. If you want your car to disregard everyone else's interests in favour of your own, then you should not be allowed to use public roads as you are a dangerous sociopath.

New technologies will always be in the minority while they are still new, but that's the right time to start trying to get them right. We, as technologists, can influence and inform the creation of autonomous driving algorithms (we aren't all kids in a basement, some of us are grown-ups with important jobs). We cannot change the way that people drive, that's one for legislators and psychologists.

And, the algorithm isn't written for you. It's written for the whole of the road-using population. No-one's going to write you an algorithm that makes your car aim for a group of fat people for a soft landing, sorry. And just how do you determine the person at fault in a fraction-of-a-second algorithm?

I'd back it up with the rack, or the guillotine.

Oh, I thought you meant those little wobbly things in Playstation controllers. I don't know anything about steering wheel controllers. Never really been interested in owning one.

Don't Zenimax own the BFG now though?

You're saying that with a straight face? Force feedback was a stupid gimmick, good riddance to it.

How much do you know about John's work at Oculus? Just because VR has been done before, that doesn't mean that it can't be done better than before.

Anyway, all of 3D gaming is ancient, I was playing Elite on the BBC Micro in 1984. Therefore everything that has been done since then is unoriginal and derivative of Elite.
