From the article: "[Ron Milner] remembered showing it off to some buddies at a county fair when the game first came out, but that was 40 years ago!"

Perhaps it did?

How does this compare to Nissan (US), also non-union?

Parchives. Great for adding recovery to any file. :) I use them [now par2cmdline-tbb] religiously for archives. I started doing this years ago after having CD-R's burned on a drive (Plextor, no less) that I started having a hard time reading on any other drive.

Bitdefender likes to revert to default settings frequently. I prefer Windows Firewall (Win7) and have to turn off the Bitdefender firewall usually at least once a week.

And reel-to-reel. Example article from a quick web search:

They can. I bought a Roku 3 after seeing how much more responsive it was compared to my Sony BDP-S790 for streaming apps.

Paris, even though it may not be what is pictured, is also what I immediately thought of, from the GP's second link.

LEDBenchmark [1] does a good job with their own spectrum and flicker graphs. So far, the LED bulbs I have gotten based on their results have been good.

A regional (to me) real estate web site that we had to work with had a data service that output XML. It was naively implemented and managed to output malformed XML. Mostly in the form of a CSV field crammed into an XML field with non-conformant XML markup.

Employee IDs. That is [not even close to] all. Sadly.

A few jobs ago (factory automation), we had a story from one of our projects where a device (would have been a PLC or relay panel) was failing. Rather than dust, metal filings had gotten into the case and were shorting out connections. A "quick" cleanup, and the device was working again.

The old Right Stuf website catalog [1] (old catalog not accessible) would list their pages with the first two letters of the first item's title on the page. I found it immensely helpful, and even "borrowed" the idea for a directory on a local govt website (also no longer accessible).

You might find ladder logic for PLCs interesting. It simulates old hardware relay systems.

In case this is not the explanation you found: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/wat

That is starting to sound like 419eater.

My work machine is not nearly that beefy. :| I do often have 8-10 cmd windows open. According to task manager on my machine, each PS instance on start is 90-100MB. I didn't dig deeper to see if that RAM usage would shrink over time.

I know we have machines with lots of RAM now, but at 90-100MB (PS) vs 4MB (CMD) [1] RAM usage per instance (not counting the conhost instance that also spawns), I think I would still want CMD around.

This bit me badly when trying to pipe GPG output. I ended up building a command string and sending it to cmd. :|

This categorized approach is what my email usage has evolved into over the years. I ended up "demoting" email addresses over time and letting them be used for spam-attractive uses or disuse altogether.

I have another category for family/close personal friends. For money matters, I go a step further and split out general commerce (online shopping) from financial institutions (banking/investment).

I have a Canon Pixma MG7520 that works fine over wifi with a Win 8.1 client. Quality of the prints are scans are pretty much inline with the price I paid (i.e., mediocre). It sees very light use, so I have no ideas about how long or well it will last. I got it to scan contracts and for the occasional color print (not photos).

On the desktop side, IE9, the last version on Vista, which is in extended support until April 11, 2017, only supports up to TLS 1.0.

OTOH, progressive JPEGs tend to require much more memory to decode. I do not have specific numbers to cite. Only going off of anecdotal usage of image programs over the years (e.g., Java photo uploaders that choked on progressive JPEGs).

Vegan french fries is the stand out here. Many commercially available ones are flavored and/or cooked with non-vegan ingredients.

For processing data types without quality natural unique keys, being able to generate a unique key beforehand is very useful. I've written code both ways: inserting to get an auto-incremented integer, and generating a UUID, and the UUID approach was much easier to write and maintain.
