To quote the Declaration of Independence:

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?

Yep, and since when is someone who writes such an app a "hacker?" They may be a reprobate, but they haven't hacked anything.

"The cops are going to have a lot of fun explaining"

...because, terrorists!

can see how Uber is worth a lot of money. Maybe not $41 billion, but definitely a lot of money. It's called "mind share" and "reputation".

If Uber's valuation were based on their reputation, it would be negative.

Where are you that you are still in a pension plan which you don't control? I'd think most /. users have 401(k) which they have at least a bit of control over.

That would be timothy, the editor from hell.

"open sores software"

There's an anti-virus which can treat that.

No seals on any Macs, at least up until the candy colored ones, either. You needed a hard to find long T-15 screwdriver (and a special case separator, if you didn't want to do cosmetic damage) to open them, though. But the RAM was soldered in, so it wouldn't have been a Mac that needed its RAM reseated.
