I just don't get why people get offended that things exist.
I think it's the whole mistaken outrage that "the developers are working on this worthless crap instead of bugfixes / real expansion packs / etc."

That's another topic. Unless you are a military courier, a motorbike has no place on regular roads if traffic safety should be taken seriously at all.
Troll/10, nicely done. I almost took the bait for a second.
It's bad enough that management and the customer decided to go with software controlled safety interlocks (against the advice of the software team), but to blatantly disable the safeties? I'm just... I don't even know.
Are they planning on using it to mix paint or something? It seems like this would have to violate some legal safety standard somewhere.
I would suggest not trying to pass the command line arguments directly to Invoke-Expression. I ran into similar issues with some horribly hacked-together Powershell scripts I was working on last year and ended up getting it to work by passing everything to Invoke-Expression as individual variables.
EDIT: Actually just checked on this and I don't think that it's correct to refer to & as Invoke-Expression. It's the invocation operator, more details here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/7703.powershell-running-executables.aspx#The_Call_Operator_amp
XP cannot create, with the builtin, a passworded zip. I don't think it can read them, either, and I'm pretty sure it can't handle tarballs.
You have it backwards, XP could create and read password protected zip files. Newer Windows OSs don't have that ability. That's a good thing though, because the encryption that feature could handle was shit (zipcrypto if memory serves).
I would have thought 802.11 more likely myself; it can be linked with the building's wired connection, and therefore be more reliable.
It's a possibility, but my thoughts are that this would significantly complicate PCI compliance. I believe it would make the intermediate network responsible as well, regardless of VPN / VLAN segmentation.

I would suggest giving the demo a try. I played through the demo and didn't feel that it had a lot of Portal's charm. That being said, it was interesting enough that I kept it on my wishlist and will probably pick it up next sale (too many other things to play through at the moment).
Do you work for PNC? This sounds exactly like the Gallup kool-aid they started drinking 5 or 6 years ago. Including the "coaching" on the proper way to answer the ambiguous and ridiculous questions.
$executable = "C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\svn.exe"
$arguments = "https://[url redacted] C:\webfiles\inspections --username [redacted] --password [redacted] --no-auth-cache --non-interactive --trust-server-cert"
& $executable $arguments
Something like that maybe? The nesting of quotes to get it to work is a nightmare, I'm pretty sure I did something like that to get around it.
Edit: Misread the error, you might want to break the arguments into their own variables individually instead.

hmm.... well that's nothing a nice pinch can't sort out
So how do you get it to just burn out the wireless card and not the whole machine? I like how you think though ;)
or a deauth attack maybe?

Spoilers? Where?
You're either defining that term extremely broadly, or I have no idea what you're talking about. Or both, I guess.
It affects you if the TSA guy who's supposed to be checking people on the plane you just got on let someone with a bomb on.
Oh please, I'm sure this is sarcasm but I'll bite anyway: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20150602/05474131176/study-tsas-security-theater-troupes-missed-95-smuggled-weapons-explosives.shtml
Lastly, encryption wouldn't have helped? Well, no, they still would have gotten the data probably, they just wouldn't have been able to easily read it which is the whole POINT of encryption
I'm with @Polygeekery and @blakeyrat, encryption is extremely unlikely to have helped. I'm not sure where you're coming from that you feel it would have made a difference.
Edit: Highlight-quoting from a series of nested quotes attributes the quote incorrectly.
Having played the demo, I can definitively say that I have absolutely no fucking idea what the cat has to do with anything.
If you're honestly looking for a synopsis, it's a first-person puzzle game where you use items to redirect lasers, open barriers, activate fans, and other typical puzzle stuff. There's a whole philosophical sci-fi story layered on top of it, but not much is revealed in the demo and I don't really want to spoil anything for myself by looking it up.
I'm also amused by the fact that it was made by the same people who did Serious Sam.

The Fall
Picked this up last night. The controls are a little wonky, and it suffers from some typical adventure game tropes like "find the tiny hidden icon you need to click" and "how the fuck was I supposed to guess where to use this item". I wouldn't even go so far as to call them puzzles at all, but I'm only about an hour in. I've still been enjoying it despite the complaints though.
