The disconnected phrasing of your post hints that observable reality does not significantly influence your thinking.
Of course not. Everyone knows, after all, that conspiracies are hidden, and thus not observable. The observable reality therefore lies to you in order to hide the conspiracy.;-)
You misunderstood. My sentence is to be parsed like the other one I modelled it after, in the post I replied to:
"Yes, but back then I could record the movie and watch it whenever I pleased."
Here it is clear that he couldn't record the movie whenever he pleased, but had to do it whenever it was broadcast. After recording, he could watch it whenever he pleased. That is, that sentence is to be parsed as "Yes, but back then I could (record the movie) and (watch it whenever I pleased)." not "Yes, but back then I could (record the movie and watch it) whenever I pleased."
The same applies to my sentence: "And now you can purchase the game and play it whenever you please." It is also be parsed as "And now you can (purchase the game) and (play it whenever you please)." not "And now you can (purchase the game and play it) whenever you please."
Hint: Always read the context of a post, especially if without the context the sentence would be ambiguous.
Because those jobs which are the hardest to automate (and thus the most to remain) are also the hardest to share. In general, one person working 100% is more effective than 2 people working 50%, unless it's a very simple job (of course cleaning the floor is easily distributed to more people working less time; but then, it's also more easily automated). And the difference grows the more demanding the job is.
This kind of sentiment is informed by 1920s misinformation. We've already solved the problem of not having any manufacturing jobs by transitioning to a service economy.
The economies hit worst by the crisis are those with the least manufacturing jobs. Think about it.
You are seriously institutionalized aren't you? From seeing any critique of your government as an attack, to thinking it's okay for a company to make you change your sleep schedule in order to purchase their products. The rest of us don't bend over so easily for authority.
"However, he said, this protection only applied to balances held in euros rather than bitcoins."
So either you have an Euro account which is treated as a real bank account, or you get a Bitcoin account and are outside those regulations. In other words, they now have an Euro bank and a Bitcoin exchange combined in the same company, but not a Bitcoin bank.
...tends to handle this issue on its own. At least as far as purchases go.
At least in Germany, prepaid credit cards are available for minors. Indeed, the lowest age offering I've found with a short web search is starting at 7 years.
I'm not sure that the payment receiver can distinguish such credit cards from regular ones.
I don't see how DRM comes into play here. You can certainly instruct your web server to show/not show certain information based on current time without employing any sort of DRM.
Next you'll claim that Slashdot only allowing to discuss a story for limited time and then archiving the discussion is DRM, too.
Sorry, but that would already have been covered by my planned patent on exerting a force by exchange on virtual particles. With separate subclaims for photons, W particles, Z particles, gluons and gravitons.
Oh, and of course I would also have submitted a patent on a method to stabilize matter by preventing several particles to take the same state.
When a patent gets invalidated, Apple cannot any more use it against the small guy either. It just evaporated. So this does good to the small guy as well.
Of course when there's a settlement without the patent getting invalidated, the small guy is still fucked. Unfortunately that gives big companies an extra incentive to settle: Even if it should cost them more that winning the lawsuit, it may be worth it for them by keeping new competition away.
I'm pretty sure there are some exceptions. Otherwise, if the police catches a criminal, the criminal could just demand that the police erases all information they have about him...
No, no! It's an ALLEGORY! God created BREAD that lasts 60 days, then he went to work making the WORLD and MAN. On the 70th day, he squeezed the bread absent-mindedly, saw that IT WAS GOOD, and went to his bookshelf, to take down the book marked "To Serve Man".
Fortunately He still cannot decide on the receipt to choose.
Usually the thrown-away food statistics include food which never even reaches the consumer. For example, your shop stocks too much of a certain food, and it doesn't get sold, and the shop throws it away after it got too old.

Indeed, currently my bet would be on Mint as the next popular distribution.
Suicide is illegal? Do they then put the corpse in prison, or what?
Of course not. Everyone knows, after all, that conspiracies are hidden, and thus not observable. The observable reality therefore lies to you in order to hide the conspiracy. ;-)

So companies are now authorities?
They don't claim to be a Bitcoin bank.
But the story title does.

Actually the international standard notation is YYYY-MM-DD.
The highest market valued one, but certainly not the most valuable one.
IFF there is a god, I am pretty sure he/she/it is against hoarding cash like crazy.
So to find out whether there is a god, we just have to find out whether you are pretty sure he/she/it is against hoarding cash like crazy. :-)

You're not active on facebook ot twitter?
many of us? speak for yourself.
How do you know he doesn't? Maybe he has a multiple-personality disorder, and most of his personalities have self-diagnosed Asperger's? :-)
No, you are not discussing undefined things, but the well-defined concept of undefined things.
A discussion about undefined things would go like this:
"That what I'm talking about has the property I'm talking about ..."
Oh, sorry, "I", "talking" and "property" are also well-defined terms ... so:
"That what whoever is doing whatever about has the whatever whoever does whatever about ..."
You obviously confused it with Assperger's Syndrome.

It is usually bad input: People who press both the "up" and the "down" button to make the elevator come sooner.
