  • Thanks for the clarification. It's been a long time since I've seen it.

  • WE ASK THE QUESTIONS!

  • In Battlestar Galactica (2004) robots called Cylons attack the humans by hacking their computer network. They are able to destroy most of humanity and all but a handful of human ships. One of the ships that survives is the Battlestar Galactica, an old ship that was about to become a museum, and is too old to be connected to the network. The man in the picture is Admiral William Adama, captain of the Galactica. He orders that computers are not to be networked together, so they can't be hacked by the Cylons.

    In real life cyber security provider CrowdStrike had a bug in one of its update files. The file went out as part of an automated update to computers at many businesses around the world, including banks and airlines. The bug made the computers crash, grounding flights, making payment systems inoperable, etc.

  • The lesser of two weasels

  • Something can be breadlike without being bread, in a similar way to how whales are fishlike without being fish.

    The dictionary doesn't dictate how words should be used; it reports how people use them. Consulting a dictionary is a way to find out how "lots of people" use a word.

  • Cake can also be in layers with ingredients inbetween, making a sandwich.

  • Don't believe me? Ask the dishes

  • All I see is *******

  • However old you are is the oldest you've ever been

  • It's tracking how well ads perform without tracking individual users. Tracking ads isn't the problem. Tracking users is the problem. Before this the only way to track ad performance was by tracking users. This is a way to track ad performance without tracking users.

  • Why did I read that headline and think Jupiter was causing trouble

  • The Doctor is on first
