Chicken that laid a very large egg.

When people (i.e. Slashdot) has to offer work around solutions for your OS for even the littlest things, you may have a problem.

Never been to jail, have you?

I see no purpose in up-modding AC astroturfers. Completely against the point of why AC was created in the beginning.

You can still buy 8mm film. I think it's Japanese stock, but it's still there. Some people just want to do this weird stuff for some reason.

Or a big refrigerator.

If we're doing work for you, how much do we get?

Or the US southeast with all their pork BBQs?

I figure they'll just replace North America with a picture of a camel.

Or you could try the scam that the guy in Vegas did by paying his employees in Golden Eagles, which are stamped at $1, but has a value of like $1200. The IRS was none to pleased at this, as he was trying to skirt tax laws.

If you have to go through all kinds of hoops and machinations to prove that something is correct (like Bitcoins mean a damn), there just might be a chance that your original hypothesis was a bit flawed.

CheeseWiz!

No no. Helper monkeys (normally capuchins). You can train them to do almost anything, including being a hitman (see the movie Phenomena). Now that is value, especially since they won't tear off your face like a chimp can.

I don't think you mean "require," but rather "allow." Unless the government is going to pay for a company to lay down cable/fiber, how do you make a 2nd company put it in if it doesn't want to?

I'd consider that as a tip to law enforcement. You'd think they would actually be happy to get a bunch of tips.

Each person has their own needs. There is no way any smart phone is going to be able to do my A/V work in the near future. If they hit that level, and someone makes that "laptop shell" product you mentioned, I'd be sold.
