This is true, although neither of those by them selves will achieve what the author is aiming for.

I dislike fingerprints too much to feel that temptation, but when using a phone I do feel a kind of dread every time I want to select some text or precisely position a cursor.
That depends entirely on the degree to which those in power will respect the results of an election.
I mean, two out of three isn’t bad, right?
Also, is it just me or does that Wikipedia entry have zero citations? I thought Wikipedia was allergic to citation-free claims..

I guess they could be gambling that she can't afford a good lawyer; many people can't.
ETA: That was a bit terse. My point was simply that it's more difficult to do institutional knowledge transfer when turnover is high, which may be a problem in the games industry.
That's more than their current market cap ($127B), and the stock price right now is not that far from where it was just before the spill ($49 now, around $59 just prior to the spill).
I'm just curious how that was accomplished, given that it would not have been a great time for them to be borrowing or issuing new shares, for obvious reasons. Maybe if it was spread out over like 10 years it could be more doable, but still that seems like a lot.
Granted, that kind of situation is unlikely to continue indefinitely, but it certainly can happen.
What dirt could they possibly have on him that would actually matter to the voters that voted for him last time?
Not trolling or rhetorical; that's a completely sincere question. Even if something "bad" were to surface, his supporters would simply deny it and/or ignore it, same as they've done for all the other things he's done that are already known.
You can pretty much divide American voters into two camps right now: the ones who loathe him and the ones who DGAF (non-voting voters being in the latter category).

Then sites that want to track will just add some JS. Seems unlikely to help.
Most of the state's electricity comes from NG, so clearly there is a market for it. Not to mention heating, cooking, exports, ...
If you were a DRAM manufacturer, isn't this exactly the kind of thing that would make you think twice about investing years and $billions in new fab construction?
It depends on the particular furnace or NG generator in question, but if you take the best case for each, then this does not appear to be true.
The most efficient combined cycle NG plant is around 65% efficient, without considering transmission losses. The most efficient NG furnace is 90+% efficient.
Compare that to a modern NG furnace, which can be 90% efficient or more.
So if you just want heat, burning the NG directly is generally more energy efficient than burning NG to boil water to drive turbines to generate electricity and then converting that electricity back to heat via resistive heating.
It's possible for driver skill to be important without being the only thing that matters.
If every driver drove exactly the same way, then the race would be 100% down to basically just team strategy and the car itself. For fans of strategy that might be fine, but I think most people would find it much less interesting.
