I don't know, but once they figure it out it will be first applied to sending a song to a friend. Which, unlike sending crack cocaine to any buyer, is a serious crime.

It will become a mark of incompetence. If you weren't resourceful enough to avoid being selected as an SCO case's judge, you don't deserve your position.

So the problem with pens is that no writing tool in the world can make you a good writer?

Rather than "last and only hope" I'd say "next stage in the eternal progression of socioeconomic systems".

I'm sure after a few centuries a human being will say "Socialism is at a dead end. Balancianist revolution is humanity's last and only hope."

The risk of printing objects vulnerable to sunlight won't alarm anyone in this audience.

Well. Tough luck. To be a privacy conscious person, one has to eat bananas.

While the criminals are picking up the dollar bills, they are not committing any crimes.

Other than the stealing of dollar bills.

I'm pretty sure that's going to be the most stupid thing I read all day. ...

Ok. I HOPE, that's the stupidest, but I have a budget meeting in less than an hour, so I'm not really that confident.

The time?

My eyes pass over a display with "the time" every few minutes. How bad a memory do you have to have to need to be reminded of the time more often than that?

Maybe you're speaking of survival situations in the middle of nowhere?

The actual quote is:

"If I have seen further than some, it is because I have stood upon the shoulders of Blaster." - Master.

Slashdot editors shouldn't post as AC.

Movie adaptations went from one to many and then to series. The edges blur and soon we'll complete the full batch of movie remakes into series.

And in this case it's also a matter of medium rather than story. A theater may need two hour long movies, but Netflix can sell thirteen chapter series just as easily.

I think you're not taking into account the other one:

Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 33: "A Jew must always speak the truth except when writing passages of the Talmud, in which case he can lie about making false oaths, which of course he wouldn't be able to make according to Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 33."

I wonder if there's any way or system to confirm those are not an old hoax/fake.

In case it helps in the future:
You probably know a subpoena is a demand with which you'd be penalized if you don't comply. So, a demand under penalty.

The word subpoena comes from "sub", under, (as in submarine), and poena, punishment, (as in penal system or penalty, in sports).

Maybe that will help you with the spelling. :)
