Now I finally understand why Apple fans have to line up three days ahead.

The submitter added that on their own. The bill applies to all US persons, i.e., all citizens, permanent residents, and corporate entities.
From the actual text of the bill:
The term ‘United States person’ means a citizen or permanent resident alien of the United States, or an entity or organization organized under the laws of the United States or a State or political subdivision thereof.’
The word "citizen" doesn't even occur in the article.
I did, and all I received was an automatic reply saying that slashdot.org will not respond to or even read my messages, due to the large number of emails received at that address.
That is an utterly unacceptable response. I am outraged; I shall be referring this matter to the German police.
You buy 10 shares GOOG at $500. Later you buy 20 share of GOOGs at $550. Later you buy 20 share of GOOG at $560.
If you pay 30 shares to somebody
So, you wait a month, now GOOG is at $570, and you sell 5 shares.
Your cost base is ( $500 * 10 + $550 * 20 + $560 * 20) / 50 = 544
When you paid someone that 30 shares, the price at that instant was $560, so you made a capital gain of (560-544)*30 = $480
When you sold 5 shares at $570, you made a capital gain of (570-544)*30 = $130
I really don't see what's so confusing about this.
I replied the insult wasn't a word in Mandarin,
No, you didn't, you liar. You said "And it's not a chinese word".
but you assholes insulted me because I didn't know the cantonese word.
No, I insulted you because you wasted everyone's time with your ignorant bullshit about how a Cantonese word isn't Chinese. If you had said "And it's not a Mandarin word" then I would have modded you informative and moved on.
And it's not a chinese word, in case you were wondering.
I was actually wondering why you're wasting everyone's time by commenting about a word which you apparently know nothing about.
Finally, what the hell is the z supposed to stand for in 0z?
He's probably a German speaker. Binary is Zeugenschutzprogramm in German.
Typical government bureaucracy, relying on outdated technology.
Nearly 10 years ago, top minds in the private industry already developed super dogs that not only detected DVDs but could also determine the legal status of said DVDs by smell alone.
As long as you know for sure that the person you are paying doesn't intend to just keep the thing that they bought for you....
We're talking about something that is ordered online and shipped straight to one of the scalper's many addresses, so there's zero chance the mule could run off with it.
...and scalping tends to be discourage by the law...
Show me *one* law anywhere in the world that prohibits the scalping of non-ticket items.
What probably happened is that they got compromised, and then whoever compromised it tried to sell the account information to the highest bidder.

You missed the next part:
Further, in accordance with Federal law, NASA does not collect state and local fuel taxes as such taxes are not payable for fuel sold at civil airports owned by the United States.
The federal government is immune from state and local taxes, therefore fuel sold on a federally-owned airport meant for use by federal agencies is exempt from state and local taxes. The problem is that Google brought and used some of this below-market-price fuel and thus skipped the state and local fuel taxes.
Dispose of my stuff in the proscribed manner at the municipal dump.
It's probably not smart to brag about your illegal activities on the Internet
Give the man a break. He's just trying to promote open sores food.
Saying "I will kill the president" is illegal, but saying "Remember kids, saying 'I will kill the president' is illegal!" is legal.
Google should just change the message to:
Unfortunately, this video is not available in Germany.
By the way, some pricks have a problem with us displaying the message "this video is not available in Germany because it may contain music for which GEMA has not granted the respective music rights."
So we're definitely not going display that message.
It's interesting that in the Netherlands, tech companies have been telling the government that there is a shortage of about 30.000 IT workers. However, if you're actually looking for a job and trawl the internet for vacancies, you'll quickly conclude that there are about 500 vacancies tops.
That's because cheap foreign laborers are lazy and only possess 1/60 the productivity of a Dutch person.[/sarcasm]
