RDP8 also supports RDP over UDP which further enhances performance in high-latency scenarios. I'm assuming that is also not factored into that claim either

Airport restaurants only use plastic cutlery when they are located past the security checkpoint.

Edit: US airports. Since this article was about a US airline operating in the United States I thought that went without saying.

Yes.

But there are unicorns on Stack Overflow.

What exactly is the tax benefit to giving away almost all of your wealth? Tax loopholes reduce your taxable income, which lowers your tax liability. I don't see how you can come out ahead giving away almost everything. Can you explain what you think he is exploiting and what the benefit could be?

What part of the article do you have a problem with?

The HN crowd baffles me sometimes. It seems to move between "This person is too old. They are disconnected from today's generation," and "This person is too young. They don't have the experience to share meaningful anecdotes."

At what age would this person's comments hold water? 25? 28? 30?

> How much overlap is there with Whatsapp?

This is the question. Apparently a sizeable number of teenagers and pre-teens have zero interest in FB. It's where their parents post cat pictures and make dinner plans. From what I understand, Kik, WhatsApp, and Snapchat are all what's "cool" with the under 18 crowd. This move may ensure that FB still has sufficient data to mine on this demographic in the future.

There are definite "winning" strategies - like acquiring a monopoly on "jail row" and mortgaging all other properties to build it up as soon as possible. But does altering a game so that a child doesn't have to see the optimal moves from someone else do anything positive for anyone playing the game?

Monopoly only drags on for hours if you play by silly house rules like $400 for landing on Go, money for landing on Free Parking, or not requiring an auction when passing on purchasing a property. All of these common house rules artificially extend the game by either injecting cash into the game or slowing the acquisition of property.

A vanilla game of 4 player monopoly should take no more than an hour.

The prices that were quoted in the article are promotional prices for the first year of service to a new subscriber. It increases greatly (sometimes even doubles based on the package) after that first year.
