To the best of my recollection, the only magnetic printing medium is MICR which is generally a type of toner with a small percentage of iron in it. It was most commonly used for printing cheques to be read by magnetic readers before OCR got as good as it has.
I prefer not to think of it as hoarding, but rather preserving it before some corporation decides to 'put it in the vault' like Disney does. Why should they control when I can watch something again?
If you're really set on the parachute fail thing, you can make the robot catapult you through a window. But then you'd have to sleep every night with a broken parachute.
And you'd need to make sure you didn't live below the 5th floor. I'd imagine from a ground floor bedroom it would simply be annoying.
When I try and explain the concept to people who have never done an assessment before I use the example of Godzilla; Severity is Catastrophic, Likelihood is Never.
As a BA who gets asked questions on how various systems interact, I get incredibly frustrated in being pointed at source code and scripts to try and figure things out when they should have been documented clearly in the first place.
I say this as someone who has spent the last working day trying to verify how a particular system functions when none of the original BAs, testers or developers are still around and as a result of a number of unrelated events we have zero development staff inhouse for the next week.
Depending on your definition of prominent and your definition of sci-fi and your definition of comedy: Douglas Adams (Hitchhikers Guide series), Phil Janes (Galaxy Game series), Ben Elton (Stark, etc), Eric Idle (Road to Mars). I could probably find more if I looked, that's just what I could think of off the top of my head.
In Victoria (Australia), we have a number of 'select public schools', these schools generally have exceptionally good reputations and require passing of admission exams to be offered a place. They often out perform the majority of private schools for VCE results. That said, there is only a handful of them, and parents of students in these schools are heavily invested in their children's performance.
What's your idea of diseased genetic stock? Everyone has to die of something, very few humans will die of old age without having suffered from heart disease, diabetes, cancer, or some other health related issue first which has at least some genetic predisposition factors involved.
In Australia you cannot get Medicare funding for a pregnancy where a surrogate or donor eggs are used afaik. This is based on information I was given while trying IVF a few years ago, and from a friend who was having to use a surrogate. They ended up using a surrogate from Thailand because the parental rights laws in Australia are tricky and you can't contract for a surrogate.
Many people are reproducing without IVF intervention who would not have survived to do so in earlier times, either because they were born prematurely, would have died of a childhood illness or any number of other factors. Many cancers that appear are a result of surviving long enough for them to exhibit, where previously you would have died of something else before the cancer popped up it's ugly head.
The majority of cancer sufferers are diagnosed will after they hit puberty, meaning they can reproduce and pass on the genes long before they know they will be hit.
Mean while, science is getting better at identifying and treating cancer earlier and with less impact. I say this as someone who was treated for cancer earlier this year and hasn't as yet (touch wood) needed chemo because of how early it was caught.
I'm pretty sure you were being flippant, but as someone who worked in retail for many years I used to have a manager who said that if a customer ever complains the first thing you do is thank them. Most customers, if they have a bad experience, will leave and never come back. By complaining they are giving you an opportunity to fix whatever the problem is.
The way to get improvement isn't simply to take your money elsewhere (even just in the form of per head govt funding), it's to give specific, targeted, constructive feedback on what is wrong.

Obviously the 'missing' money is all in licensing costs.
Even I'm not sure if I'm being sarcastic there.

I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
IIRC footprints are taken at birth.
I'd say more than half, if you slightly broaden the scope of your definition of a blow job.

At least aspire to something with a decent cup size.
That's OK, the Coalitions Fraudband policy will sort out your pesky bandwidth issues. Oh wait!...

What's the point of being super rich if you're not richer than someone else? And without consumers, how do they continue to make wealth?
A general without an army is just a guy in a funny suit. You can't be 'rich' without others being 'poor'.
I have two Australian Mists, which are a oriental/tabby crossbreed. They are scary affectionate.
Shut up, your too old
Their what is too old?

Where I live +40C is a moderately hot summers day. It's when it tops 45C that I really start having trouble.
OK, personally, I start having trouble over about 37C, but we've had temperatures up to about 48C in recent years (Black Saturday fires).
We don't see a whole lot lower than -5C around here.

In this sense, public refers to "publicly funded" vs. "privately funded", so by that definition, yes, secret military bases are public.

Only for a very short period of time, then they would decline due to the lack of maintenance.
Unless reverting to nature is what you mean by improving, which would be a valid point of view.
