Oil companies would love for energy to be wasted. It means more demand for them.

Yeah, if they didn't do this and literally just said "from this future version royalties from high earners will need to be paid, as we need an income source. The old version will be a LTS release." and it would have been literally fine.
But retroactively screwing people like this? Obviously they will lose trust, and I do not understand how they didn't understand that.
Smalltalk is still being used? That's really surprising honestly.
Yeah, there's literally nothing strange about this at all. I have done similar things (although my study was done physically, so we invited people in person), and have been invited in and participated in similar things myself.
By itself the subject seems interesting enough to me, a study on the shifting social media landscape. It sounds like a great research topic!
Research needs to be done somehow, and getting data from the people directly involved in the migration is certainly a good way of learning about and documenting the phenomena.

In addition, the paid versions still track you
...having a demo version of windows does not count as "having it".
It's a paid product. Windows Home costs 139$. And if you bought a laptop or pre-built PC with windows on it, you have already paid for the license as part of the price. And since most people buy pre-built PCs, or laptops, most people thus do pay for the windows license.
Given away? Windows is a paid product. And there are other (free!) operating systems that are not driven by profit.
Water is effectively the ash equivalent of hydrogen. If you burn carbon stuff you get ash from the impurities as well as CO2 (and some other possible things), and when you burn hydrogen you get water.
You cannot burn water because it's already burnt.
It shows where Microsoft's mind is at. And it won't stop here.
It's unlikely a lecturer will change the course material this quickly. There's a lot of planning and work that goes into a class. They probably will change strategy for the next semester, though.
In addition, game dev is game dev. The skills are 90% transferrable. A university class (should, at least) will teach you about the foundational and general concepts, using a game engine like unity to put theory into practice. Classes generally don't use and teach a tool to teach how to use that tool specifically, but to teach something more general/foundational, that will be useful in the future no matter how the tech landscape changes.
Graphene actually is used in small amounts in a few places today. The difficulty is still in scaling up production.
I won't really know which computer storage technologies you're referring to. There are plenty of different ones, most of them just have niche applications or are too expensive to replace today's SSDs for general use, as SSD technology have gone a long way. It's a similar story to batteries, honestly. Lithium is still just the cheapest for what it does, but alternatives for niche applications exist.
Fusion needs more funding, no way around that, otherwise the theory is sound.
But of course, it is true there's tons of clickbait. But promising new developments do exist.
How is it human nature when not every human acts like this?
I'm not one privy to throwing out slurs or being verbally abusive in stressful situations. And neither are most of my friends.
