There is a law in the pipes that would preclude minors from logging into computers of any kind? Isn't that a bit radical, considering children have CS classes these days?

The bit "...Quantum computers can represent these systems directly rather than approximate them, because they operate according to the same quantum mechanical laws that govern electrons in molecules. In this case, that capability helped reveal helical molecular orbitals for electron attachment -- a fingerprint of the half-Mobius topology -- and exposed the mechanism behind the unusual structure: a helical pseudo-Jahn-Teller effect..." looks really suspicious indeed, as if they put together something sounding profoundly scientific but lacking essence really. Probably a PR stunt rather than a real discovery. Probably could have been calculated on a binary logic computer as well.

It all went downhill for MS Office afterwards. The ribbon is a ridiculous dumbing-down of functionality. LibreOffice are right in retaining the menu system. Their product is a worthy alternative for what M$ has degraded to over the years.

...as someone said, are either illegal, immoral or bad to health. Free access to pornography, with all its drawbacks, has some benefits for the society: a drop in violent and sexual crime. it's as simple as in a potential criminal wanks off and does not have the energy to commit a crime. If there is any religious reasoning involved with this law, it should be recalled that priests are raping children which is a much worse thing than seeing porn online. All in all, this law will do more bad than good.

'The Guardian' as media of choice kinda makes it even worse.

...indicates it is not a question of values/virtues, just a political choice/PR damage management.
