I though the sandwich planning board was a slab of wood that sat between my sandwich and counter-top graven with various condimentary flow-charts and cold-cut layering strategies.
That's the sandwich construction contractors board. The planning board is where they make the flowcharts, based on various feasibility studies, usually in such a way as to completely ruin the sandwich.
It's obvious that your company is a front and your boss has been infected and is a zombie himself now. I suggest you play along and gather intel for us, but if your cover is ever blown you are obligated to lock all the doors and set fire to your office to prevent a zombie apocalypse. Your codename will be "Bigbutt".
I see, so because I'm not starving to death I don't have any right to protest corporatism, corruption, and greed in the government. Because I own any sort of electronic device, I must implicitly support evil corporations. Because I own a small piece of something that will appreciate in value, I'm lumped in with evil bankers, who engage in all manner of illegal activity in order to make money they don't need. Because I protest as an individual instead of as a collective, my petitions are meaningless. And on and on...
You are exactly right, which is surprising for Slashdot. Everyone complains that robots will put humans out of work and poverty will rise, but fail to realize the positive economic consequences overall. More robots means less production cost which means lower prices which means you need to work less to buy the same amount of goods, and the limit of this equation is zero. It's not like everything else remains static and profit margins explode geometrically. It's just that labor costs are removed from the equation, and it ends up balancing on both sides...
If a company is sued by a patent holder and forced to pay licensing fees, and that patent is later invalidated, is that company entitled to reimbursement?
Wow, brilliant response. Certainly nothing wrong with labeling an organization as "terrorist" just so you can kill them because you don't like their politics. WikiLeaks are not terrorists nor are they under oath to protect anybody's secrets. The people who violated their security clearance and leaked the info initially are who should be punished. If anything, this will make governments less casual about their security clearances, which is a Good Thing(tm).
I see. So I should be forced to pay a pharmaceutical company outrages sums of money to purchase their medicines rather than simply use something that comes directly from nature for dirt cheap simply because you have a personal issue with "potheads"? If the medicine works for me, what's the problem?
Too much crap, from favoritism to improper relationships, could originate between teachers and students on facebook.
I could say the same thing about "schools". A place where teachers and students are in the actual physical presence of another?!?! This is just begging for abuse...
What I would like to know is how photons are accelerated to the speed of light. Let's say I energize a laser tube just enough and somewhere in the gas I create a single photon, it instantly shoots off at light-speed. What exactly is propelling that photon to light-speed? Why does it travel at all? Is there any period of time where it exists at a speed less than c as it accelerates to c?

Yeah because your net worth is the only measure of your success. *rolls eyes*
mmm fig newtons and gravy
It was the one where you were sitting there banging your fists on the table in utter frustration at Picard's density.

Exactly what order does pi have, other than approaching the ratio of circumference to diameter?

Basically what you're describing is the privatization of our legal system. I'm sure this will all work out wonderfully...
Why would it need a combustion engine to go faster? Electric motorcycles are pretty much the fastest thing around.
You really only need half, and an ungodly amount of Ben+Jerrys
Subjective. As far as I know, there is nothing "inherently ugly" about anything.
Jocelyn Wildenstein?
Treble damages
What about Bass damages??
Which makes me wonder what precisely it is that they're needing the money for.
Obviously they need the price hike to balance out the loss of customers they were planning to get from the price hike. What... what??
Who do you think appoints or hires them?

Greed will exist wherever human nature exists.
Which is why we must exterminate the humans.
I'm interested in your flies. Call me.
They deserve to be shot.

For solitary porn viewing, incase you need BOTH hands free.
I don't know about you, but my regular TV doesn't require the use of hands while watching...
