How is that any different than the "money" in your bank account?

Ideally, it would manage your nail collection - it would search all available work-spaces for nails or nail-like objects - even http://dragonball.wikia.com/wi... - and it would organise your nails according to size, weight, color, composition, shape and which end was pointy and which end wasn't. It would keep track of your nail usage and offer you the nails you use most frequently, even going online to order new nails of that type (or more likely new nails of whatever type is preferred by the hammer's manufacturer), or it might refuse to operate at all unless you had the correct proprietary nails. It would also have social media integration so you could check out what kinds of nails your friends were using as well as be exposed to advertisements for different sorts of nails, screws, bolts, rivets, glue, welding rods and Namekians.
Oh, and it would also hammer nails, although that's kind of secondary at this point.
If the robots are autonomous, then the soldiers aren't equipped with them - they'd fight alongside them. Or probably several hundred feet below, if the robots are drones.
Your dog will go "woof! woof!" into an Internet-connected microphone, and the next day, crates of premium dog food and what you consider to be overpriced dog toys will appear on your front steps.
And there will be TWO new layers of roof cladding on your house.
Big fucking whoop. Maybe the chorus should be "big fucking whoop" over and over for all the good it'll do the production because the chances of turning a profit are zero.
They'd need to consult This Is Serious Mum before they use "big fucking whoop":

What I don't understand is why the Glassdoor posters must be revealed but the name of the company is a secret.
Have we entered into an alternate universe where corporations have a higher level of rights than humans?
Not at all. We are still in the ordinary, everyday quotidian universe. Where corporations have a higher level of rights than humans.
There are already a huge number of shows I don't give a flying fuck about, most of them about celebrity cooks, real estate and non-entities trapped in film sets that look like a house.
You are a pirate if you have a hand in making the a pirated content available online. When you leech a torrent content, you are also sending the part that are stored in your local storage to other downloader, which more or less is the same as burning the episode to a disc and sell them.
What if I choke my upload rate down to zero, and don't seed? I'd be a leeching asshole by torrent community standards, but I'd be - well, not a good citizen, but slightly less of a bad one, to HBO.
I had Foxtel for about six months. I was fast-talked into it by a door-to-door salesman, of all people, who claimed that a certain channel I was interested in (can't remember the name, but it had a vaguely Gothic theme) would be available very soon. It wasn't. It never came about, and I was left with - as TISM sang in their song "Big Fucking Whoopee" -

I would be interested in seeing what the most recent episode of GOT Foxtel has. I doubt somehow it's season 7.

How many is a "mega-team"? A million, or one million, forty-eight thousand, five hundred and eighty six?
It appears to be seventy-two.
Sounds to me like transgenders could face the same problems as anybody else.
Sounds to me like a neat way to avoid being drafted - turn up at the interview wearing a skirt and a Bailey Jay t-shirt.
I mean it's not like there are any people born with physical handicaps that go on to do important things for society /s
Pretty sure Robert Anton Wilson would disagree with you. He had polio.

When will we all admit that this crypto-currency crap is all just a pipe dream for some, and a scam for others? Worthless crap.
I have to disagree. It's a pipe dream for some, and a scam for everybody.

Why would they suddenly think putting a gun in the hands of a robot would be a bad idea? A trick to make them seem considerate, I guess.

it isn't any good as a router, but think of the street credibility! the only way to beat that would be to use an Arduino.

Movidius sounds like a classic Dr Who bad guy.
You can almost see it on a shelf in a second-hand bookstore: "Dr Who and the Tiny Mind of Movidius, by Terrance Dicks"
What does it actually DO?!
By itself, nothing. But if you plug one of those babies into the skull of a T-800.. whoah, baby, stand back!
