Walk around in a Guy Fawkes mask?

Yes, maybe, but for more formal occasions, I would suggest something more subtle

Only if it comes with a cigar.

All bets are off. You don't own any part of yourself, especially after it becomes detached. Can you have your arm stuffed and mounted on the wall after it's been amputated? You are medical waste. Don't take that personally. The majority is okay with this. Just, you know, "decline to be scanned"

I'm pretty sure I saw something similar, almost three decades ago.

> Or are they overweight with a cheeto dusted "Han shot first" t shirt, a huge neckbeard and an astoundingly arrogant attitude.

Yes, here is a typical example.

...imagine what the resources of a movie studio could do with the concept.

Jeff Bridges in Tron Legacy? Ew!

I don't think you'll see it either. https://vignette.wikia.nocooki...

I forgot how much you look like a Yeti! It's cute how you think every AC is FCLM!

There will be a movie about power droid before they're done.

I'm still trying to reconcile Miyazaki's cat bus with the lack of available hallucinogens at the time in Japan...

That's not a ruby you dumbass, that's a rock!

This is a ruby!

Man, this took much longer than it used to...

Anyway, Obligatory Nelson Muntz.

Here's a link.

Funny, IMHO it looks more like this one.

Do we really have to explain [...] vacuum of space?

Everyone knows what a vacuum of space looks like.

without stealing money from taxpayer subsidies

Maybe you should google what a subsidy is and how governments work. Or read it in a book. The "Complete Idiots Guide To Subsidies" may be too complicated for you so I suggest you start with "The Holy Shit You Really Know Nothing At All About Anything Guide To Subsidies". I've prepared you a link.

If those are your requirements, boy do I have a car for you:

https://vignette.wikia.nocooki...

Seriously, though, some of these things are seemingly mutually exclusive:

3) It has a removable battery
4) The camera / microphone have dedicated hardware switches that enable / disable them
6) It has a standardized connector ( USB-C ) and a GD headphone jack

vs.

5) It is somewhat waterproof ( Don't need to dive with it, but some rain protection is nice )

These things are really hard to do and keep to this requirement:

8) It isn't so damn big that it comes with optional leather straps so you can use it as a shield

Regarding #1, that's the nice thing about an iPhone: I've never had any crapware installed by my carrier. It's one of the reasons that my primary phone is an iPhone, as Verizon loves to bloat it's Android phones. As for #2, just buy an unlocked phone, of any variety, and you will not have this problem.

As for #10, I really dislike iTunes, but still use it; however, there are alternatives, such as MediaMonkey.

Spaceship, eh?

I follow Fox Mulder's philosophy.

Here's an interesting but very fictional approach from an anime version of Manhatten - overpass the lot and put an overpass on the overpass!

...would like a word with you.

Stop fucking spiders. Go find some nubile girls to fuck instead.

Or you could split the difference.

Is that a joke? lol. You're at the bottom level of the argument pyramid.

A lot of times the issue can be addressed by referring to the argument hierarchy, where lower levels are worse, higher levels are better. For a fuller exposition, Paul Graham goes into it.

TBH sometimes the lower levels are the most fun, but the top is the most satisfying.

Borglets!

They are so cute!

There you go.

Then your solar system goes from this

I wonder how these guys would behave in real life. What kind of mind do you have, when you're one of the most productive in the area of spewing hate, anger and vitriol.

Well, sometimes they have a sense of humour. A few years ago someone replaced the picture of the new elected pope with a character from Star Wars...

Anna is a pure good girl who would never break the law like that!

So it's either a 3rd party malicious actor using a compromised DHS server, or a rouge DHS actor?

This guy?

Verizon's update will just make the phone blow up immediately. Whoops!

I liked tron the best. Solar OS (Solaris?) running on sun4u hardware hey?
There were also a lot of parallels in the movie between the new ENRON owners and the new owners of Sun Microsystems (Oracle). Jumping Jack Flash was interesting too. Of course there are lots of others like Cloak and Dagger, War Games etc..

Moderators, really, don't think it can't happen

That is kind of interesting. I spent a couple hours to try to figure out what that object is, I zoomed in quite a bit on it and tried to enhance it as best I could. Here's the result, what do you think?

[Check Engine light]
Yup - the engine is still there.

Check your other engine also.

It's funny how fast this can become this.

Dr. Richard Daystrom (William Marshall), owner of the Daystrom Institute, inventor of the duotronic circuit and the M-5 Multitronic Unit ("The Ultimate Computer"). I daresay a MAJOR character, even though he only appeared in that one episode, though he did get a LOT of mentions elsewhere, particularly DS9 and Voyager, maybe once or twice in TNG as well.

Black as the Ace of Spades.

I think Riley was the only Irish crewmember.
Spock was, by one count (it might have been one of the books), the only Vulcan in Starfleet. For that matter, certainly the only Vulcan hybrid in Starfleet.

Jumping the thread a bit: AC at #52476455: there were no space hippies in Space Seed, I think you're referring to "The Way To Eden", which was all about space hippies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

The episode which struck me, as a fan, as being pretty much the most controversial in TNG was "Up The Long Ladder", which wasn't even aired in the UK the first run round (1989). In fact, it wasn't aired until well after the DVD release.

Would you rather have APK? Or the appy app app LUDDITE guy?

Don't feed the trolls, don't even try to understand them.

For any The Amazing World of Gumball viewers, these appy app apk racial epithet types probably look and feel *just* like TAWOG's representation of the Internet: An old-school 1990's tan PC with CRT monitor living in a basement, surrounded by decades-old pizza debris, constantly hounded by his Mom.

If I were that, I'da tripped my own circuit breaker years ago.

That it is.

The Homer looks much better

Conveniently, no modifications to the top of the head need be made.

Instead of the stick, Microsoft will now try the carrot.
