"Over" in this context means that you will be talking or taking some similar action during the time when you are eating or drinking something, or (much more rarely) doing some other activity.
If you used "with" in this case it would change the meaning. Consider these sentences.
Bob and Willard fell in love over dinner
means that they fell in love while they were eating their dinner. If you say:
Bob and Willard fell in love with dinner
it means they really, really like their dinner. Using this construction, even where it is less ambiguous, to mean "while eating dinner" is not very idiomatic. You can have wine with dinner; you have a discussion over dinner or during dinner.
You can restate this in other ways, however.
Let's work out the details over a couple of beers
can be restated as:
Let's work out the details while we drink a couple of beers
but this sounds a bit awkward and stilted. My guess is that that's why the shorter "over" idiom came to be--it avoids the ambiguity of "with" but is simpler than constructions like "while we eat" or "to accompany" or suchlike.
As a mnemonic--and a plausible origin--think of two people sitting at a table drinking tea. The tea is in cups on the table; the discussion passes over it, above the table. The discussion is literally happening "over" the tea.
Where did you play basketball at?
This is okay. The at is not necessary, but it is normal in some people's dialects. You might want to avoid it, unless you want to sound dialectal. This advice applies to writing, not just speaking.
Where did you go to?
This is commonly used. For example: in the sense of trying to find a lost pet or even a lost object: Now where did you go to? Or Where did you get to? or Where did you go/run off to? It is a rearrangement of "To where did you do?", which sounds rather stuffy.
What did you do this for?
This is natural and common. 'What for' or 'for what' can have the same meaning as 'why', so this is fine and means the same as "Why did you do this?"
Which boy did you play games with?
is rearranged from the rather stuffy
With which boy did you play games?
As for
Where did you break in to?
Grammar Girl's explanation, in this case, is fine.
Where are you from?
is perfectly normal English. It would be weird and unusual to say or hear "From where are you?"
You want to know why Where are you from? is okay? This is one of those answers that amounts to because this is how we say it. Please note that in informal language it is acceptable to end a sentence in a preposition.
