Now weâ(TM)re going to be packing all those waste protons into landfills.

They could put it in the center of the screen for better selfies!

It shouldn't even require a counter-suit. It should be automatic that, upon demonstrating the DMCA demand was wrong, bad, or deliberately fraudulent, the DMCA claimant is charged, say 10 times the claimant's own estimate of the damages they did, or could have, incurred due to the the so-called copyright infringement. (And DMCA claims should all require an estimate of damages if the claim is not resolved.)

I think you'd see false claims (by movie studios, in particular) dry up pretty damn fast.

I live in a grass hut, you insensitive clod!

I'm in a blue state, so the electors are going to the Democratic nominee, regardless of who is running on either side.

I'd vote for Sanders if he's on the ballot, but if I have to hold my nose while I choose between Hillary and Trump, I'll go ahead and throw my vote over to Trump.

I may not be able to contribute to the election of the president, but maybe I can hasten the destruction of the current Republican party, even if by only a tiny bit.

That was exactly what I said about Trump before the primaries started - that when people were actually standing in the polling booth, they would realize that maybe Trump isn't their candidate of choice.

Seems that I overestimated people a bit. Or maybe I underestimated their frustration with the system.

That's just it. The wedding wouldn't be legally recognized.

Most likely, trying to put a wedding date on a legal form with a date in the prohibited range would invite scrutiny and a visit to a reeducation camp. They'd also demand to know who performed this "fake" wedding and make sure he never performed another.

I think it would be worth most people's while to just wait out the ban.

Is marriage a religious thing in NK, or is it a government thing, requiring a civil servant like a justice of the peace?

If the former (if religion is even allowed), I'm sure all ministers are registered and have permits to operate. Just tell them not to perform weddings (or else).

If the later, then you just instruct all civil servants not to conduct weddings.

Well, my neighbor isn't quite dead yet, but he will be soon, I think.

Actually, he's not even sick. Some even might say he's a picture of health.

But _just in case_ he dies next week, when it would be very inconvenient, would it be OK if I bury him this week?

It's Washington D.C.

There are already plenty of sharks in the Capitol building.

A student loan.

So the first one gets destroyed by hitting a rock.

The other 99 get destroyed by hitting the debris from the first one.

It will be the younger Charleton Heston that time-traveled forward from the 1960's.

I think the GP's comment was much less about Apple and more about Tony Fadell, the Nest CEO.

From what I read this morning, it may be because the U.S. has a separate tax agreement with Panama. So U.S. citizens may not have been able to hide stuff there as readily as people in other countries.

Remember, we... *ahem*... "liberated" them from their president in the late 1980's. I'm sure we got them to make all kinds of agreements while we occupied the country.
