Yo, Father of the Smart Phone here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwolfsheadonline.com%2Fbi... Been a while since I was on Slashdot, invented Kinect, infinite player networking, and solved multicore problems. I think I invented some other major multimillion/billion things, and debunked Asimov's nonsense of chasing his red herrings. I invent so many major inventions, I forget them... Absent minded professorism. I have a C3PO brain just waiting to be sold to market: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fweb.archive.org%2Fweb%2F20... If you check these links, you'll see I am not making this up... I'm the world's leading research scientist and you probably haven't heard of me.

So you bought the phone that has both? A walled garden, and monetizes your every interaction? Let's not be naive here.

It could be quantum absolute zero antigravity technology, but if it is says "Seagate", I ain't buying it.

Yep, according to most commenters those shares are of zero value, so there should be no problem sending 5% of them each year to the tax collector.

Recruiters: this company is an ideal target to get new employees from!

They make a product that an annoyed developer could replace in an afternoon of hacking.

It's more likely the moment the communication dropped out was the same moment it imploded, so about 2 hours after launch.

Surely you realize that a fine has to hurt for it to have an effect -- it should be large enough to make it unprofitable to continue your business practice in this fashion; it's pointless to give parking level fines to billionaires, and the same goes for billionaire companies. Then there's the scale involved of these violations, with around 400 million users in the EU, that's $3 per violation, still pretty cheap all considered.

It doesn't matter what you are capable of if you're a girl in a mad-max future.

Almost anything will emit something. Tires emit rubber particles. Combustion emits soot particles. Heating plastic or putting fluids in them emits particles. Cooking emits lots of particles. Washing clothes emits particles.

Spraying ink from a nozzle onto paper is no exception. That ink certainly won't all stick to the paper.

The real question is if its a problem or not.

Worse, as WotC decides what is any of those, and you can't contest it, they can decide the use of the word "twenty" is discriminatory.

Let's not pretend that big tech is not already paying for their internet connection. Even if only sending data, I would still be paying for the pipeline.

What do you mean? You have a basement with windows?

Yeah, the 150 MB Slack is using on my system at the moment is bringing my Pentium Pro 200 MHz almost to its knees.

Ah, so please show us the employee currently employed at your company that is earning $1 per year in this position, and also the one that is earning $10000000000 in this position. Oh you can't? You might in be in violation...
