Assuming you know enough information to determine that a particle has been disentangled (and I think that this is the case), then you have faster-than-light transmission of information.

I'm not a physicist, but the way I understand it, there's no way to tell if a particle is entangled without observing and comparing both particles.

I read this and the first thing I thought was, "Can you really grow cotton in Arizona?" I think something might be wrong with my brain.

If you accumulate enough ormus in your body, you'll be able to biolocate from one place to another, even between different planets, instantaneously.

Wasn't Ormus a character in Diablo 2? Kinky.

Copyright is a complex issue with many applications and rules, and even in this thread there appears to be very little agreement as to which parts, if any, do or should apply here, and whether one or both parties are doing something wrong. To ask whether all of Slashdot is for or against copyright is a gross simplification in several ways.

I have the same problem. If you Google my name, you'll find a photographer, a musician, and some guy who flew across the English Channel in a jetpack. Sadly (especially in that last case), none of them is me. And yes, if you really wanted this post almost certainly contains enough information to identify my real name. Have fun with that.

As a matter of fact, I think a parent should have the perogative to take his kid out at anytime during his life.

"Son, you're a scumbag, you've hurt too many people and you've been in and out of jail for the last 20 years. It's time for you to go." BANG.

The problem with this is, what constitutes "bad person" or "badly led life" varies widely based on the moral/religious/political beliefs of the individual. How many people would put "being gay" or "not being my religion" on that list? Hell, I bet there are more than a few who would put "advocating murder" on that list.

We have a justice system for exactly the problem you're trying to fix.
