GNU style is logical, because braces are syntactically a single statement:

while (x == y)
  func1();  // can be replaced by { ... }

However, I prefer to entirely avoid unbraced single statements after while/if:

while (x == y) {
  func1();  // easy to add func2(); later
}

Although this is ok when it fits:

while (x == y) func1();  // brevity!

Pillaging isn't free, it requires a lot of time and effort.

sell off 5 of them for twice what they were worth

Technically she was selling for twice the retail price. An item is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

fd00::x is shorter than 192.168.x.x

Technically you're supposed to use fdxx:xxxx:xxxx::x, but on your home network nobody cares.

I would say, anything whose spacetime geodesic (orbital/freefall path) intersects the spheroid defined by the surface of the Earth. Though by this definition, a comet on a 100-year collision course is already "on Earth", so I'm not sure if that's reasonable.

Drop the SPEED OF, just LIGHT. It's cleaner.

Is this cheating?
