Back in my day, it was popular with boys about 9 and up. But it was a bit of a niche game - it had its die-hard fans, and a whole lot of people who never played it.

Isn't "Mexico" from a native Mesoamerican word, and not from a Hispanic language at all?

No it isn't. It's API stability. Linux changes stuff all the time, and pretty soon your old binaries won't run on new distros (unless, ironically, you're running Windows software with WINE). Apple deprecates APIs all the time and switches CPU every few years. For all its other faults, Windows is still better at keeping your software usable.

web.archive.org always had huge blind spots. I've found it's basically blind to Chinese sites. It was kinda OK for mainstream English-language sites, but you never had to go far before you'd click a link it hadn't scraped.

The mobile site works now, and they fixed the "only shows two comments" issue. You still have to manually expand threads sooner than on "old" reddit, but it isn't completely unusable now.

The regime is imploding while Trump literally just sits back and enjoys the show.

But it isn't. The US attack has bolstered public opinion for them, and ensured there's a new generation of Persians growing up to hate the US. It's funny how you complain about people supposedly hating you, then proceed to give them very good reasons to hate you.

With the username "PinkyGigglebrain" I think that's a given.

It depends on focal length as well as f-stop (shorter focal length gives more depth of field at the same f-stop). Smaller sensors need shorter focal lengths for the same field of view, so a "50mm equivalent field of view" f/2.8 lens for a smaller sensor will have more depth of field than a "50mm equivalent field of view" f/2.8 lens for a larger sensor.

Nintendo didn't buy Rare. Microsoft bought Rare in 2002 to turn them into an Xbox exclusive developer, like they did with Bungie.

The Car and Driver numbers are for he US only. The GP's list is based global sales. Still, the Model Y is only the best-selling EV in the US, and not the best-selling car in the world by any measure.

Various SPARC-based Sun Enterprise Server products supported hot-swapping CPUs under Solaris. I think some of the POWER-based IBM System p servers support hot-swapping CPUs under Linux. Maybe some of the Unisys ES7000 support it?

Or a musician.

The implication is that the "pusher" sells heavily-discounted drugs to the kids, or gives them free samples, to get them addicted. Then they need to steal money to buy more drugs to feed their habit. I'm not sure this was ever a real thing, but that's the narrative the ads were playing on.

Why? What evidence is there to support that? Or lacking evidence, even a proposed biological mechanism by which harm could be caused by non-ionising radiation?

I'm not a biologist or oncologist, but here in Australia, it's well-known that prolonged exposure to non-ionising UV radiation as a significant contributing factor to developing melanoma and other skin cancers. I'm not saying mobile phones necessarily cause cancer, just pointing out that there are mechanisms by which non-ionising radiation is known to cause cancer. Simply being non-ionising dosn't mean prolonged exposure is safe.

JPEG2000 was brought down by patent licensing. No-one wanted to pay the fees required to implement it. It was never about technical considerations.
