The lesson is: never try. If something's hard to do, then it's not worth doing. You just stick that laptop in the closet next to your shortwave radio your karate outfit and your unicycle and we'll go inside and watch TV. What's on you ask? It just doesn't matter.
Whose main protagonist technically has no income, but lives well because other people pay his bills and provide him goods and services for free in exchange for his ideas. He also has an ex-wife who is an agent for the IRS, which claims he must have income - and therefore owes taxes on it - because he lives well, and are trying to collect. She goes through extraordinary lengths trying to get him to pay.

Boiled down: about one-third of the American press are chickens, about two-thirds are not.
Is it simply the fact that these objects are all relatively closer to each other that expected? Do they interact in any fashion, or were they all formed at the same time and/or from the same source?
Most music publishers stopped including lyrics with CDs ages ago, and almost never post them on say, the band's web site. The vast majority of lyrics on these sights are poor transcriptions posted by fans, which they lyric sites systematically swipe from each other. So if one site says the line is "there's a bathroom on the right", they pretty much all do.
Are less-than-perfect transcriptions of lyrics that have never been officially published a violation of copyright?
"This is all your fault!" cried the CEO at the press conference, pointing his finger at the crowd. "We asked you, begged you to rewind, but you wouldn't, you just wouldn't, I...

You pull into the designated space, a robotic arm deploys from the pavement underneath and plugs you into the grid. You start your vehicle, the arm retracts. And of course you'd design the connection to easily detach if the vehicle suddenly peeled away. More efficient connection, less people freaking out about EM.

It's a simple question of weight ratios. A one kilogram octocoptor could not carry a three kilogram PS4.

Do you really need to anonymize everything 24/7, like when you're watching Netflix? Doesn't that extra traffic overload the Tor network?

No, I don't know how. But then again, neither do they. They won't even see it coming.

Does it keep you from sweating? Say when the humidity is 90-100% and perspiration does nothing but soak your clothes?
Wouldn't this kill your wrist after awhile? Especially if you're keyboarding? Perhaps an anklet?
