Lawsuit Paid In Full: Samsung pays Apple $1 Billion sending 30 trucks full of 5 cent coins. :chaingun:

This morning more than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially, the security company that protects the facility said the trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from Samsung CEO explaining that they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in this way.samsung-pays-apple-1-billion-sending-30-trucks-full-of-5-cents-coins

The funny part is that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way they deem best.

This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will accept all the coins.

Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play dirty, they also know how to do it.

What's funny that this story originally was created on Aug 29, 2012. Over 15 months later, it's making the rounds again...

I don't think he stole it, no link cited therefore no FUQ requirements either.

Naw- didn't mean it that way. Just looking at the humor.

And in actuality, if one studies the US Coinage Act (or whatever it's true name is) there are some limitations on the conditions under which a payer may actually force a "coin payout" on a payee.

Good news is "Government Debt" IS covered, so when I received a chicken-shit $20 parking ticket in front of my own damn house, I DID pay in pennies, and they DID take it.

Although they were bloody indignant about it.

Honestly, it was one of the funniest damn moments I have ever had in my life, for shock value alone, and somewhere around here I have the whole thing on video.

And note to others, that stainless steel tray that goes under the bullet proof glass was apparently designed to hold EXACTLY $20 in coin. In my case I threw an extra buck in for good measure (and to confuse them) so there WAS a little bit of overflow.

Answer your text.

Had a renter that fucked me over and demanded the $300.00 as I got the rest of the dammage deposit back to him 4 day late. Pennies too expensive to mail, same with nickels, but dimes only $15.00 in postage...
